Edited on Thu May-14-09 10:02 AM by whatchamacallit
We deserve it! We fucked up and we need to take it on the chin for what we've done. How else will we ever get our house in order? IMO the surest way to create anti-American opinion is to continually show the world we can do any fucking thing we want and get away with it. No responsibility, no accountability, no truth, no justice. Destroy the world economy? - No problem, here's a golden parachute. Start illegal wars? - It's okay, just lie, forge documents, and hire lawyers to justify it. Torture, disappear, and murder, innocent people? - Equivocate, equivocate, equivocate!

When I was growing up I got rewarded for doing good things and punished for bad. That's how I learned boundaries and acceptable social behavior. America has become a spoiled, sociopathic brat. It's time we take our medicine and grow up.
