WARNING: Supporting Nation Building Makes You Sound Like a Moron (Video)

My favorite line:

"The Russians didn't have the experience to understand Capitalism"

What???

And "Iraqis don't have the thinking tools...Attitude tools"

Again...What???

Absolutely the best interview I have ever seen to show the success of a good ol' fashioned brain washing. Either that or just lip service on a subject with absolutely no knowledge of said topic whatsoever.

So, watch the vid and pick your favorite line for a good chuckle...

Peace.

i agree with a military presence in germany. they started TWO world wars and are responsible for millions upon millions of deaths. but portugal?

the japanese too. if certain elements in japan society seized control, they'll avenge the shame of defeat and the nuclear bombs dropped on their compatriots. it's just their nature.

every other country that has a u.s. military presence or base is just imperialism in disguise.

i'm sure no american on earth would want bases of 147 country's in every state. why should iraqi's, or libyans or any other self-sufficient and independent state want americans running their lives.

some of these country's have civilisations that are thousands of years old. have known warfare for century's.
america is barely a lousy 200 years old. they act and behave, literally like a know it all 5 yr old.

the arrogance of americans is what the world hates. not hdtv and iphones.

Agreed,

A few strategic places could be seen as protection and/or prevention but 147 places is just World domination.

Oh my... I think that lady just won my prize for "The Dumbest Blonde I Ever Heard". Really. Her walking away at the final question just spoke volumes. LMFAO Uninformed and yet so highly opinionated. It's almost scary. Indeed OP, brainwashing with a blonde rinse for good measure.

That. Is. Awesome.

Second Line

How twisted politics has become in the US.

Big government is a liberal idea?

The term 'liberal' I am assuming the guy meant 'lefty'?

Traditionally the left is less authority, anarchism being the extreme. Right wing is more authority, fascism being its extreme.

I really have a hard time understanding where Americans are coming from with politics. I guess because it's all based on state propaganda and not reality? It's certainly not based on any history pre-1950's, when the right appropriated, from the left, terms like 'libertarian' as theirs. Sometimes you talk like classic lefties, but you praise capitalism and the right. You think the left means big government, when in reality the opposite is true anywhere else in the world. Who uses terms like 'big government' anyway, sounds like 5th grade politics.

The left/right associated with the two party system bares little resemblance to what left/right really means.
Both parties are right wing, the 'left' being a little left of the right doesn't make them truly left wing. They are both still past the center into right wing authoritative, not libertarian, systems. Capitalism doesn't make a system libertarian either, it can be as totalitarian as socialism can be. Capitalism does not guarantee freedom, it only guarantees that private owners can exploit labour. It is only because of labour organization that we do have 'freedoms'. Otherwise you'd still be working in sweat shops all hours of the day for a dollar an hour, a little bit like what they are doing to workers in China.

She just walks away speechless...lol. Nothing like an ignorant war monger poorly attempting to justify the trillions of dollars spent on our military to put a smile on my face.

My favorite line: "I think in....thinking tools, attitude tools"

Liberal = Lefty?

Yeah, no idea there either but it sounds good.

Thanks for your input.

So liberals are right wingers? I always thought in America liberals were lefties? Conservative right, liberal left, no?

She was a perfect example of liberal thought: you can't possibly understand how to take care of yourself, so I'm going to force this person to force you to understand. Adam Kokesh is a hero.

No, I was just having a goofy moment. Meant to say that left, right are both the same. No such thing as left or right anymore.

There's only one good way to build a nation.

Don't destroy it in the first damn place!

American politics works like this.

Right = supposedly nonexistent
Conservative - real Americans
liberals = leftists
leftists = whatever the right, I mean, conservatives claim they are.

Confused? Good, so are we.
