Will We Ever Have Another Worthy Rival?
I was reading this article about Putin meeting with the North Korean leader Kim Jong Il (is he not the funniest looking dictator ever?) and started thinking of the good old day, the 80's. The Soviet Union was the last country that actually dared to stand against America. For the longest time, we had a worthy rival, but, the Soviet Union collapsed when Reagan started being mean to them and now Russia is just a pathetic, quasi-European country that wants aid and everyone to like it. America no longer has any rival really worth fearing; instead, we have a bunch of terrorist retards who only through mass delusion think they can take us on and a bunch of other silly little dictators (some of them scared of planes) yearning for the old days when they were feared and didn't even need to stage phony-election to impress the U.N. Hell, if the whole rest of the world tried to take us on at once, I doubt the war would last a week before they all surrendered (France would probably lead the way on that initiative). Has America really defeated so much evil in the world that it's just clean up now? I just hope a comet heads for us or something, because it was so much easier to appreciate the good 'ole U.S. when one actually thought it could be destroyed.
