FUBO!
Liberals are very myopic (and stupidly simple-minded).
Locked and loaded. :)
We aren’t “entering”, the door has already slammed shut behind us. The Party’s over, it’s time to call it a day...
We also appear to be entering a post-American America.
I’m sure to get some very negative comments about this but here goes...
America’s leaders made some very good as well as poor decisions following World War II. It was a good thing to help rebuild what was destroyed in Europe and Asia. We should have just settled for repayment on those efforts.
It was a bad thing to think we could impose ‘Pax Americana’ on the world. Not so much because it was a bad idea but because our form of government doesn’t have a good record or even means to have a consistent policy from Administration to Administration, be it foreign or domestic. We just change our political leadership way too often for that to occur.
That means in the long run we should have encouraged change we could live with and approve rather than try impose our own ways of doing things on nations around the globe. As we all know now it just backfired on us instead of creating friends and commonality among the nations of the world, all we have done is breed enemies who want nothing more than to make us ‘suffer’ for our ‘crimes’ as a nation.
Liberals have destroyed America. Thats the take away
Earth To Mark Steyn:Your Wake-Up Call Was Late!We Are THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can see the solution from my porch.
I don’t think it is necessarily an entirely bad thing. America shouldn’t have to spend more than the rest of the world combined on defence. America’s allies should step up and match America’s per capita spending on defence, not only because it isn’t fair for the Americans to pick up all the slack, but because, as the Obama period has made very clear, the US is only ever an election away from becoming a very unreliable ally...

The Marines were there and the Alaskan National Guard.
We don’t need an “American world,” but our country and leadership should be much more American in culture and custom than it has become.
Steyn ping.
I just disagree with the explanation of why obama won—that Americans want a nanny state. The race was Rommeys to lose; remember his lackluster performance during the last debate, where he started praising Obama? If he would have gone after Obama the way Obama went after him, he would have won. He seemed paralyzed. Obama would lie, and he would leave the lie unchallenged.
Hansen, instead of cheerleading the U.S. Iraqi adventure should have questioned it with all his heart and soul. Controlling land on the other side of the world was beyond our strategic reach and it has set the stage for evertying that has happened since.
Rule of law is coming down now, here, under Obama, because of what George Bush did then, there, in that distant place.
If you read Dinesh D'Souza, you discover that the great gift the British Empire extended was rule of law under British Common Law. We have now abandoned rule of law here, and not just from the left. Common law took a millenia to evolve, from Viking law, Anglo Saxon law and Norman feudal law. It is the received wisdom of the ages that gave us the industrial revolution and all the gifts since. And if you read Scalia, you will discover that as great a jurist as he is, he is no friend of the common law either, bowing to the whims of the state over the centuries of accrued human wisdom.
