Ah, Pooh, you have made my day.

{And we're the biggest big guy there is, and we make it clear that they'd BETTER sell to us or else.] [No, we'll merely sink every China-bound oil tanker with a genuine AMERICAN-MADE Mark 48 torpedo.] No, they have inferior Russian knock-offs, and they don't have a navy. The biggest naval power in the world is the United States; everyone else is a very distant also-ran. DO try to pay attention to the details, son. [ We have munitions factories already, son, they're just not being used right now] >Well, didn't I read we were going to purchase nuclear subs from some other country to give to Taiwan - because this other country makes our subs?]

My Dad can beat up your dad.

[Let me guess: you got your education from the public school system. The fact of the matter is that we only manufacture nuclear submarines, because that's all the US Navy uses; diesel-electric boats are made elsewhere. Our submarines are made here in the USA. 'Tis a far better idea to keep your mouth shut, and merely be thought a fool, than to open it and remove all remaining doubt.]

Macho talk about how big our army is. How great our subs are. Absolutely no ideas, no facts, just macho schoolground rhetoric.

Once again, you made my day.

After your absolutely fact-free rants about how our nuclear submarines are all built overseas, you have one hell of a lot of nerve to complain about the alleged nonfactual content of my post.

You're ignorant. That's not particularly bad in itself, except that you insist on broadcasting your ignorance to the world at large, which is foolish.
