How American awfulness stacks up

Americans lead the world in obesity, lag it in life expectancy and infant mortality, but boy do we feel good about ourselves

    The American awfulness link is being awful and does not work.

    Don't tell fleming. He still thinks we have the best health care, economy, and schools in the entire known universe. Piercing his little bubble would be too sad, I can't stand to watch grown men blubber.

    Oh dear, DO is perpetrating more nonsense on the blog. 

    Last time I came close to blubbering was when one of our predator missiles only killed 10 or so scumbags in Pakistan.  I do find that kind of wasting of our valuable missile resources very disturbing! LOL

    Nevermind we are still the world's largest economy, by far, despite one of the youngest countries on the planet.  Nevermind we are the most innovative and most diverse, by far, of any large country in the world. Nevermind we have advanced the human condition like never before in human history.

    Oh yea, we are not perfect, and never will be.  Far from it.  We are human, and thus there will always be inequities and injustices within our borders.  Do let us know when you find somewhere there is not (with more than 3 people)

    You are the one living in the fantasy bubble DO, where the USA turns on Israel, declares its love of socialist principles and declares "being/acting white" officially against the law. LOL

    PS: Nevermind if a planet destroying meteor was discovered the world would rely completely and totally on the US to save it from total annihilation.  That stuff doesnt matter (yet)

    Wow, the fantasy life fleming ascribes to me is almost as freaky as the one he lives in himself.

    When are you going to enlist in the Glorious Crusade, fleming? Then you can kill all the Pakis and ragheads you want, right?

    Don't tell me you're too old or fat or crazy. Your beloved volunteer army is taking anybody these days. I could probably show up wearing a lampshade, a hula skirt, and a certified "Abby Normal" nameplate and they'd take me and give me a bonus to boot. Of course I have no interest in killing innocent people but you seem to get off on it, so I ask, why haven't you signed up?

    Are you only a war supporter when you're safe at home cowering in your basement?

    Or are you--as I have long suspected--nothing more than a cowardly Keyboard Commando?

    I suspect both are true.

    Anyone who advocates for war without enlisting himself or urging his children to enlist, is a coward. Period.

    For those unfamiliar with the Abby Normal reference :) , a little humor to brighten your day:

    It would be interesting to know how Fleming did the research to come up with his "facts" that the US ibecause is the most this or that country in the world. The whole business about the Earth being in danger of being hit by a meteorite sounds like a Superman comic book. But comics don't count as scholarly sources because they aren't true(yet).

    Dancing O reveals even more of her so horribly unattractive personality.  It almost makes me sorry for whatever "movement" you have associated yourself with -- bowel, or otherwise. LOL

    The classic liberal rebuttal - one cannot support something unless one does it his/her self.  Must abortion proponets also perform them?  Must environmentalists cease using fossil fuels?  Must gay right supporters also take it up the ass???? HAHHA

    Moreover, how cowardly of those sport enthusiasts to be in the crowd cheering!  They should be on the field, or shut up!  HAHAH

    You are such a terribly and utterly detestable person, DO.  Does it frustrate that your people are marginalized around the world?  Do you find it disheartening that your culture is going the way of the dodo bird?   Are you saddened by your own lack of power and presence in society?  Awwwwww

    Perhaps Ive already done my duty.  Or perhaps I do it from a bunker in Nevada, flying drones over enemy territory, delivering death from above from the safety of a lumbar supported chair LOL! 

    Tomorrow I will be at the airport, smiling at our troops when they pass by, thanking them for their service. You know, the same ones you would spit on.   

    Frankly, I think we need to lower the quality of our armed forces.  There are too many trying to abide by the code of honor.  We need more who dont give a shit, who will fucking blast holes anywhere they think needs one.  Frankly, I say lower the standards even more.  Let our scum kill shitloads of your scum - as it should be. HAHAHAHAHA

    Fleming has slipped into calling me things like "girly poo" so often, that I can think of another "f" word to call him-but I don't like using that word because there are many gay people I respect.

    Joe and tgia sitting in a tree, K - I - S - S - I - N  - G.  First comes love, then comes marriage, blah blah blah....LOL

    Do I sense some hostility?  Is tgia using bad words (again) about me?  Is that really the best you can do tgia - "f-tard"?  Gosh that is sooo weak. I expect more from uber-genius liberals. 

    Joey-poo-poo, call me whatever your little flaming politically correct heart desires.  Im sure I can deal with it.   :)

    You know the word I'm referring to-I'm sure you have been called it hundreds of time. But it's not your sexual orientation that is loathesome to me-in fact I have no opinion one way or the other way about it-but the suggestive comments that pop out of you on this, a political discussion forum, are pretty creepy.

    Indeed I do Joey.  And it hurts --- so good.... HAHAHA

    If I creep you out Don Knotts in "Mr Chicken and the Ghost" must have really made you squirm.  (surely even your overly sensitive, wormy ass - that whines constnatly at the unfairness of it all - cant find issue with a disney reference???!!!)

    Hey, if Don Knotts started calling me things like girly-poo as often as you do, you're damn straight I would be creeped out. But don't flatter yourself: being creeped out does not mean being afraid.

    Im sure you're a real tough guy Joe and not scared of anything - except maybe all those blacks and hispanics who voted against your California resolution.   I only surmise that because you seem so reluctant to take issue with them and instead prefer to demand that I defend the rationale of THEIR decision. 

    Either that, or you are just "plum loco".  LOL

    PS: Those appellations I have for you just come naturally - they seem to fit your  (online) persona quite nicely.  But Im sure in real life you're a  super tough hombre.  HAHA

    Uh oh, I think I hit a nerve...So you want to revive the other thread about gay marraige? Well, I would ask a black, Hispanic, or anyone else who was against gay marraige what rational reason there is to ban it. The whole defense of marraige rhetoric to me is proof that there is no rational reason to deny millions of Americans that choice-it all comes down to a watered down version of "God hates fags"...But what is really irrational is that you are willing to be denied the opportunity to have a stable, life long, legally recognized relationship.

    Gosh Joe, are you saying Im gay???  Are you challenging my oh so fragile masculinity?  Wow, you really know how to hurt somebody, dont you?  Im crushed.  Your biting yet witty reportoire has overwhelmed another victim.  I give! 

    Please dont tell anyone else about me being gay.  That would be so devastating. LOL

    It's not that I'm saying it, it's that you've been saying it, maybe without realizing it.

    Sure Joey.  Whatever you like.  Gosh, your insights into my true feelings are amazing. 

    What else can you tell me?  How do I really feel about brussell sprouts?  LOL
