""That's a Satanic lie."
Saying "our security and prosperity are mutually dependent and complementary" is a Satanic lie?!?!? Have you ever heard of NORAD? How about NATO? How about the countless mutual defense efforts we've participated with the Canadians in. All a "Satanic lie"? So much for your credibility on this issue.
With regard to prosperity, do you have any idea how much our economies thrive on each other? Obviously not. I'd comment again on your credibility, but there was barely enough to trample on in the first place."

You're talking like a Mexican or, even worse, George W. Bush. Haven't you ever heard of "The United States of America"? It is the free, creative, prosperous nation that all these other nations that you say we are dependent on are flocking to get into because their countries stink!

NORAD? NATO? NAFTA? UN? You could remove every one of them from the face of the earth and you would still have what we have now: The United States supplying the prosperity and the security of the world as best it can ALONE!

Dilute it with these other inconsequential entities and you will have diluted freedom, security and prosperity. That's what I see our administration doing.

Are you a troll?

"You're talking like a Mexican or, even worse, George W. Bush."

You start your post with this and ask me at the end if I'm a troll. You're on the wrong site buddy.

"Haven't you ever heard of "The United States of America"? It is the free, creative, prosperous nation that all these other nations that you say we are dependent on are flocking to get into because their countries stink!"

This very powerful and free nation has been forming alliances since before it had its Constitution. That you are unaware of that does not surprise me in the least. I have no trouble imagining that your knowledge of this nation and its history barely extend beyond your own driveway.

"NORAD? NATO? NAFTA? UN? You could remove every one of them from the face of the earth and you would still have what we have now: The United States supplying the prosperity and the security of the world as best it can ALONE! "

True. But try taking away NORAD and NATO during the hottest days of the Cold War and see where you'd be. Long term alliances with strong allies are a positive for all countries involved. Kind of like having longterm friendships. You've heard of those?

"Dilute it with these other inconsequential entities and you will have diluted freedom, security and prosperity. That's what I see our administration doing."

That is because it appears all you can really see is the dying azalea bush at the end of your driveway. For anyone with even superficial exposure to the real world, the importance of alliances and treaties in our history lifts them far above the level of "inconsequential". Enjoy your freedom to remain ignorant. Great Americans have paid for it fighting alongside great men from allied nations all over this world.
