    which is exactly my point ... why the (undeserving) superior feeling? What is it in you people that makes you feel superior to everyone else in the world?

    Because our population consists of people (or descendants thereof) who escaped from all the various ratholes around the planet to forge new lives in a more free and prosperous society. If all those other places had not sucked so bad we would still be there. Why shouldn't we feel superior?

      While I do not think Americans as a group are superior, I do think the US has some of the most superior qualities such as freedom of speech, free lower education, booming economy, the ability of the individual to do pretty much whatever they want (some restrictions apply).

Those who are come to America. Granted, non-Americans currently living in the US (we like to call them 'democrats') are trying to change all of that. For the time being, however, we are still the land of people who strive to stand on their own two feet and care for their own needs in their own way.

                Like I said you live in your own world. The only true Americans are those you stole from (Native Americans). Also, here is a tip ... it's foolish and nonsense to keep praising oneself ... truly credible praise comes from others (and I don't mean the clown who is clapping) when it is really deserving ... ever stop and think about it? What you call standing on your two feet is something everyone does in this world. Success is truly measured by the means used to achieve it. So while living in this country your mom might have done a great job of keeping you alive BUT more successful are those moms who live in draught stricken areas of Africa and yet fight to keep their children alive. Get it ? Those Democrats you talk about are the only people in this country fighting for true democracy ... the rest of you are just making money out of that theory by fighting irresponsible wars. Ha! ... republicans ... I love these people ... never a dull moment with clowns like WB:rolleyes:

                      No, the Americans were the ones the aboriginal population was fighting against. They lost. Shit happens. Get used to it.

                      Such as all the world's poor risking everything to continue to come here? I consider that high praise indeed.

                      Yeah, starvation - thats real succesful. I'm sure they are very proud on their complete cultural incompetence.

                      It doesn't surprise me that you consider Marxism to represent 'true democracy'. You being another perfect little example of all the cookie cutter Socialist clones being manufactured by the school system these days and all. -- modified at 18:40 Monday 2nd July, 2007
