You must admit though that Europeans seem to be angry with us, unless & until they need our help.

I've got a message. We are the best country in the world. No doubt about it.

I don't care what Europe thinks of us, and nobody else should. The United States should be looking out for itself. I completely agree on this point. Here's where the Republican comes out in me. I feel we need to step back from being the welfare supporting country around the globe. We need to invest in this country. The problem there is these big Whigs don't want to deal with American Unions and Employment advocates that will shrink their profit margin ; Thus bye bye Jobs! Invest here in America!

Democrats, however, surely have the support of the EU. For some reason, liberals hate seeing America as the strongest country in the world, and want to please everybody else. That's just down right wrong! There is no denying we're one of the strongest countries in the world , who wouldn't be proud of that?

Here are some quotes from various democratic candidates campaign websites:

"Americans are ready for a leader who will restore America's reputation in the world, and Hillary is prepared to lead America back in the right direction."
Can you say our Reputation isn't ruined? We entered an occupation under false pretences. We tortured Men , women and children. We have killed more people by way of friendly fire ,bombings -(Remember ; a wedding party, The Kurds , Canadian soldiers ,) Then would have ever been killed in the same time span with saddam still in place. Foreign countries aren't under the spell that is programed into every body by the media! America is on the wrong path right now. The country is calling for help and its still marching deeper into an all out middle east conquest.


What? The reason our reputation is ruined is because others are jealous of us. They want to be like us! That's the reason others loathe the United States. They have no idea how much foreign aid they receive. They should be grateful they're getting anything! Next, Barack Osama has this to say.

"The Problem: The United States is trapped by the Bush-Cheney approach to diplomacy that refuses to talk to leaders we don't like. Not talking doesn't make us look tough – it makes us look arrogant, it denies us opportunities to make progress, and it makes it harder for America to rally international support for our leadership. On challenges ranging from terrorism to disease, nuclear weapons to climate change, we cannot make progress unless we can draw on strong international support."

I can go with that. We deal with shady ruthless characters all the time, but we pick and choose who "Our guy" and not rather strangely. Hugo Chavez is a socialist. This will not change. We deal with the Saudis like they are our (*)(*)(*)(*)(*) slapping pimps and we take it like good dogs. What if we were able to deal with a foreign leader through dialog and actually do something that's good for America. The strong international support goes hand in hand with what I mentioned above and what you mentioned below. We give a ton of our money (Tax payers) to these far away lands and to no end.

mckay, that sends a great message. "Do anything you want! We'll just talk about it!" Great, Thanks Barack.

Apparently, according to liberals, the United States is a terrible country, a bully, if you will. Hillary, Barack Hussein, want us to become that school counselor who encourages you to talk about your feelings using "I messages." That is some foreign policy.

Listen, I am not suggesting that we should have no allies. And I am not suggesting that we should jump into a war whenever we want.I'm saying we should worry about what is happening in our country rather than what others think of it.

President Bush has been a blessing to this country. Without him, we wouldn't be the world's superpower.

I dislike the rest of the world because the other countries of the world lack men with testicles. They have women and eunuchs. They are a bunch of sissified wimps who don't have the mettle to spend money on their military and what little military they have they don't use. They might send a token, useless contingent into Iraq to guard the rear while the US is doing the real work, but they don't have the resourcefulness that we have to actually stick their collective necks out to solve the world’s problems on their own. Then out of pure envy and spitefulness, not to mention ingratitude, they will sit back and sip their tea or their latte or their wine and criticize us for doing something they don't have the fortitude to do. We have enough of our own emasculated men in this country, they are called democrats. I have no use for them or the rest of the world who, when faced with a choice between being bullied around by a few fanatical muslim idiots, or taking action against these worthless pigs they will choose appeasement without hesitation. They are the ones who give power to the enemy because their weakness is just the sign that tells these maniacs that the West is ripe for take over.

Unfortunately, being the sole superpower by definition makes us a lonely country. This is no popularity contest though, and because we have faith in God we know that it is our duty to make the nessesary sacrafices that the rest of the world is unwilling to make to save the rest of the world, mostly from themselves. Thank God the US is here to save the rest of the world as we have so many times in the past.

I guess the other team didn't pray as hard. You go America. No other country serves it's maker as well as you do. God will personally let Americans budge in line to his pearly gates. You're his favourites.
