It’s been that way for a long time now.
We could have taken ‘the U. S.’ quite well, had politicians not dithered the damned thing to failure.
It’s been that way for a long time now.

What an em-bare-ass-ment. He makes Carter look good.
Oh yeah, and his horse-faced secretary just rang the dinner bell for China, et al:

I’m thinking resignations en masse is the only way to go.
We haven’t had an administration this snake-bit since 1978.
Actually, the Rooskies were doing a good job in the ‘80s before the American Stinger missiles made the helicopter gunships ineffective.
He should apologize for not wiping the taliban and their mullahs off the map.
