So much so that I wanted to make a separate thread just to talk about that way before this thread.

The thing is, though, that if we as a people are going to continue the whole smug nationalistic deal we've been doing for the past couple centuries about how our country is the best country EVARS and everyone else can suck it--and we are. Forever. Because it's pretty much our thing--then we need to put our money where our mouth is. Anything less is hypocritical.
Being American is all about having a ginormous fucking ego. It's a part of our cultural heritage. Deal with it.
