The World's Premier Predator Nation.

[KlatooBNikto]

That is what we have become under Bush.How many other countries can boast of their ability to mount phony wars 10,000 miles away on primitive countries and enforce our will by force? And torture innocent civilians and 'rendition' them to far away gulags? And do it all in our name and in the name of Democracy and Freedom?

1. And spend more on 'defense' than the rest of the world combined

Just makin' Murika safe!

3. The bigger they are...

the harder they fall by opposition who has seen our weak points and will use them against us.

Money or nukes, both are our downpoints.

No wonder Reagan wanted "star wars" nuke defense. It wouldn't have worked in the end...

[Deja Q]

2. We were always predatory!!!!!!!! When weren't we?!

Since when the fuck weren't we?

Indentured servants proved we weren't.
Slavery proved we weren't.
Segregation proved we weren't.
The mental health industry proved we weren't. (predatory pricing)
The banking industry proveed we weren't.
Fighting other countries' peoples for their land and resources proved weren't...

If you lost a job and had no prospects, you were toast. It's the same today, only for many more fields BECAUSE of the predatory nature of the money whores.

So, you tell me, when exactly was America a perfect little country, hmm?

4. I was trying to say that our global reach has made us an even more

fearsome predator than in the past.

5. predatory?

We're toast!

The Iraq War has shown the whole World how weak, inneffective and vulnerable we currently are. Not to mention dishonerable and without an ounce of credibility.

If we have a major conflict, which is more likely because Bush has shown we're there for the taking, we won't have what it takes to win without nukes and a draft, at the very least.

Nice options, just to fix something that wasn't broke until PNAC got to inflict their wet dreams for real on the whole World. The New American Century is turning into the "End of American as We Once Knew Her Century"!
