Quote: "And how did the US end WW2? By nuking the hell out of Japan"
Keep in mind Japan attacked the U.S. AFTER promising peace. There would have been no war with Japan if it hadn't been for that attack on U.S. forces in Hawaii. -

"Take the Mexican-American War, 1846, America's most blatant act of imperialist aggression, fought for land that Mexico had already offered to sell">>>
Not even close to accurate. The Mexican government was overthrown by a General, who claimed to be the new president, and then tried to reclaim Texas through force. The US was acting in self-defense.

If you think Obama is any different from W Bush, you haven't investigated their policies
Their policies are similar because they answer to the same bosses among the billionaires of the world who control both the Republicans and Democrats. Obama is an anti-colonialist and hates the fact that we are in Iraq and Afghanistan. He can't pull us out because he isn't the one who ultimately calls the shots.

It's even more relevant in 2010. Obama does the exact same thing, following the same timetables that Bush did, in Iraq. Sends 30,000 more troops to Afhganistan and wins the Nobel Peace Prize! Does the President in Canadian Bacon win a Nobel Peace Prize?

Now that Russia has grown stronger and more independent over the last decade, the US finally has their most valued enemy back. Funniest scene in the movie was the US Joint Chief literally tackling the Russian premiere in a last ditch effort to antagonize him and the Russian calling him a "sore winner". The US has done everything it can think of to turn Russia into an enemy in past couple of years yet Putin still refers to the US as their "friends and partners". It must really burn the war mongers up! Stunningly prescient.

From the first line "
God bless America again
". And picking up surplus military supplies (like many police departments). And that is just in the first 4 minutes.
We all know that
The more things change, the more they stay the same
, but this is a bit too much. I dig it up because I want a laugh, but this is too depressingly close to reality.
