When Is America Going to Pull It's Head Out of It's Ass And Join The Rest of the Human Race
Jeeez-zuz. I'm getting sick to death of this attitude that we should continue to lecture the world on all the good we have done for it and refuse to shake hands with people we don't like.

I can't believe people are complaining that somebody said we are arrogant. Can't bow, can't shake hands, can't smile at people. Always gotta bark and brag and bluster and threaten.

Oh, shit, I forgot, there's a big portion of America that needs to hate. Hate hate hate. Power comes from hate.

I'm sick of it. Some of us are mentally ill. (No disrespect to the mentally ill)

2. I think they took the word 'diplomacy' out of the Repub dictionary.
None of them seem to recognize what it even looks like any more.

4. Think about your statement in an interpersonal, instead of political, way...
Refuse to shake hands
Can't bow
Can't smile
Bark
Brag
Bluster
Threaten
Hate


Nailed it!

6. Meanwhile, we've committed mass murder in Iraq. But shaking hands with Chavez? So unsavory.

7. When we quit chanting the "We're #1" we all learned in high school pep rallies.
We have not grown up as a people and the world is one giant football game in which we are told we need to always carry the ball.
