US Imam calls Muslims to wage war on US

[Denny]

No one in their right mind would want me in charge of a country. I wouldn't be "electable" anyway. LOL

Jyro, I am reseved to a certain extent on some things. I'd shut down the innerwebz if I went full metal jacket on my posts.

That man has received blowjobs in exchange for tearing up tickets!

And Denny gave them.

Quit hatin. We live in the BEST country in the world! It really amazes me that we tracked these two clown so fast. If this were to have happened in another country where they could have easily bribed a cop or a dept for that matter and literally disappeared.... Yes our gubment is without its flaws but it is what it is.

Lol, almost spit out my drink.

Just in case you accidentally wander into a voting booth one day, there are some things you should know, and one of them is that there is absolutely no evidence to support the statement that we're the greatest country in the world. We're seventh in literacy, twenty-seventh in math, twenty-second in science, forty-ninth in life expectancy, 178th in infant mortality, third in median household income, number four in labor force, and number four in exports. We lead the world in only three categories: number of incarcerated citizens per capita, number of adults who believe angels are real, and defense spending, where we spend more than the next twenty-six countries combined, twenty-five of whom are allies.

We sure used to be. We stood up for what was right. We fought for moral reasons, we passed and struck down laws for moral reasons. We waged wars on poverty, not poor people. We sacrificed, we cared about our neighbors, we put our money where our mouths were, and we never beat our chest. We built great big things, made ungodly technological advances, explored the universe, cured diseases, and cultivated the world's greatest artists and the world's greatest economy. We reached for the stars, and we acted like men. We aspired to intelligence; we didn't belittle it; it didn't make us feel inferior. We didn't identify ourselves by who we voted for in the last election, and we didn't scare so easy. And we were able to be all these things and do all these things because we were informed. By great men, men who were revered. The first step in solving any problem is recognizing there is one—America is not the greatest country in the world anymore.

There is so much fail in this I don't know where to start. I have to pick up my son from school so I'll only hit a few points. You're basing our positions in the world based off completely subjective standards. For instance, what we register as infant mortality rates, other countries don't. Until you have one standard across the board that every country counts as we do, as accurately as we do the numbers are meaningless.

"We waged war on poverty, not poor people?" What kind of hippy bullshit is that? The federal government has no authority to wage war on poverty and the federal attempt to do so (there's a nifty war on poverty going on for the last 50 years) has been a dismal failure because it lacks the authority and the backbone to do it right.

Remind me the first country to land on Mars. Enjoy your penal colony
