Actually, Brazil was the last country to abolish slavery. And the most astounding fact is that every other country that abolished slaver did it without fighting a massive civil war and slaughtering about 5% of it's population.Doesn't bother me a bit. Seems to really bug the piss out of you though.
Only when you guys make bad laws trying to appease your imaginary friend in the sky.
Oh, NOW you do... after you voted for Republicans for a while.
Yes. Exactly my point. I would say it all came down to one conversation, when my boss explained a particularly mean-spirited decision with, "That's why I'm glad I don't have to deal with a union."
Oh, Bush totally jug-fucking the economy in 2008 didn't help, either. But you guys will just claim "Bush wasn't a real conservative" when he was more of a conservative than Ronnie Raygun.
We created the industrialized world, moron.
Most historians will tell you the industrial revolution started in England, but that's not the point. (I'm sure you heard something different at Talking Snake U., where America is blessed by God.)

The last country to abolish slavery.
The last country to give women the vote
I don't know whether that's a fact or not (I seriously doubt it,) but voting isn't freedom. One can easily demonstrate that all the results of women having the vote have been negative.
The only country that doesn't provide health care to all its citizens.
Nevertheless, we have the best healthcare in the world. Funny how that works, isn't it?
