Talk about your America-hating media members.
On the final episode of the syndicated Chris Matthews Show Sunday, Andrew Sullivan actually said that - to laughter from many in the studio - “with any luck,” America won’t be a superpower in 20 years (video follows with transcript and commentary):
Andrew Sullivan: With Any Luck America Wont Be a Superpower in 20 Years
CHRIS MATTHEWS, HOST: Andrew, are we going to be - being we Americans, you included - are we going to be the great, are we still going to use that word superpower? I don't even like it very much. The lone superpower. Are we going to be that 20 years from now?
ANDREW SULLIVAN: With any luck we won't be.
Those not watching the video are advised that for his final show, Matthews had on seventeen of his regular guests, many of which were shown laughing when Sullivan said this.
Tells you a lot about what so-called liberal media members think of their own nation, doesn't it?
SULLIVAN: We will understand what the founders understood. When you leave America and you go back and you look at it from like over here, and you see this giant continent with two vast oceans in between it, and it feels it's paranoid and terrified of the rest of the world, and wants to have this enormous military industrial complex to control it, you just scratch your head after a while and realize that Eisenhower was on to something. So was Washington, so was Jefferson. I think the transition to a post-imperial America is coming. I think its overdue and I welcome it.
I bet he and many in the studio do.
Says a lot about the state of journalism today, doesn't it?
Umm, last I checked China’s got a population collapse going on. China’s not going to be able to maintain their current territory.
Thanks Kaslin.
I just watched a “Visiting” with Huell Houser, from 1996, when he visited Havana. Well THAT is what happens to a country when it is destroyed by a socialist dictator, like Castro or Obama.
In Southern California the Chinese are buying all the expensive homes and condos, paying CASH. We should all be learning Mandarin.... sadly
Amen to that, Kaslin!
Super power to me means “don’t tread on me”.
All those nukes we have squirreled away that zer0 wants to destroy? He wants to destroy them, not to promote world peace but to make us another third world backwater just like where zer0 was born, then raised.
America is a giant continent with two oceans in between it.
I guess all these maps are wrong, then.
I wish all these America haters would just pick their version of utopia and move there. Wouldn’t take long before they were clamoring to get back in and to return to what made us great in the first place...
Not being a superpower is a good thing to them? Are they that stupid? Why don’t we just send out invitations to those that hate us to come on over and destroy us ... that’s basically what these idiots are hoping for.
And they proudly parade these morons on TV. Good grief.
With any luck, his a$$ will be the first one blown up.
One has to wonder how these anti-American, US hating assholes continue to actually thrive here economically?
Isn’t there some way we can put an economic hurt on them?
Force them to leave?
I know. I was commenting that what he spewed was totally gay.
