Currently, international human rights organizations are objecting to both our internal and foriegn policies, we are one of the largest debtor nations in the world and, well if you think our school system is healthy, you're comparing it to some third world banana republic. America's school system sucks hind titty, fyi.
And as far as "not knowing any better", the average american doesn't have a clue. The public has bread and circuses while Nero fiddles. I mean, americans are so clueless they actually beleive that the paper they have wadded in their pockets is real money!

I found it funny that reported on the news was comments from delegates from the WTO meeting in Cancun.
Delegates (*actual people involved in the political process*) compared dealing with the US now to dealing with the USSR in the 1980's
apparentely, the US team spent most of the time holed up in the hotel
it's one fucked up administration
and they're going to pull out all the stops to win the next election. I would put money on the fact, and when it comes to this I really don't believe they have a conscience.
and once they win the next election, they'll just keep going towards their goals to get rid of all social security (by basically bankrupting the Government according to some informed people - so there's no choice but to get rid of medicare, pensions...etc.) and grabbing for oil, more international military bases, less working with allies...
In a global economy, being politically isolated ain't clever
but someone forgot to tell Bush & Co that.
