After all, when it's generations later and they HAVE it, whether we gave it to them or not doesn't matter. What matters is that they have it!<br /><br />On spreading democracy, it is the democracy that matters not who brought it. And if we can bring it, then we've done good whether we get credit or not.<br /><br />Besides, on the long run, every tyrant defeated is good for everyone.<br /><br />Then again, some people (like Democrats) would rather let others struggle under constant despotism for their (Democrats) own personal temporary political expediency. <br /><br />Besides, the Founders felt that America was the example to the world and that we should help everyone be like us. <br /><br />But, I know that Democrats hate "us" and don't feel that everyone should be like us. So, it is their role to cast aspersions on the USA and hope for its failure abroad.<br /><br />I am going to say it straight out. Our culture is BETTER than anyone else's. We are the top of the food chain for a reason. We are BETTER.<br /><br />I know that many lefties get their panties in a bunch and cry "jingoism," but I don't give a flying crap for foreign culture. Ours is better and I don't care who hears us say it.Publiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15673569384659379202noreply@blogger.com
