Alright. Name one that's better. Im not going to claim everything is peaches and cream, but what nation is better?
The point is when taken individually the thinsg we claim make America great, we arent even number one in.
So you can't name one then.
Exactly.
The series aint as good as this clip. It just goes back to Left/Right Liberal/Conservative stereotypes we've already heard a million times.
Fuck, I didn't even know it was a series...I watch THC, Discovery and NatGeo when it's not on the SpeedChannel...
I dont even know what show it is lol. I dont watch HBO much. They dont usually have good programing.

So you tell me, where are we number one?
Give me SOME evidence that shows we are number one
I think its up to YOU to prove that the US is the best country in the world as clearly all data points to another conclusion.
And why have we fallen from #1 in nearly everything? The Communist/Marxist/Socialist policies of the redistribution liberal who has destroyed this nation with their failed ideology.
And that, my USMB friends, is the most honest 15 seconds on message boards...

It isn't up to me to do anything other than show how absurd the ratings used to prove the US isn't number one are. Let us take the freedom one, that puts US at 8.
Abortions are illegal in Ireland, Canada has restrictions on the press that the US would consider intolerable, it is illegal to build a minaret in Switzerland, the constitution of Iceland specifically allows restrictions on freedom of expression restricted by law in the interests of public order
or the security of the State, for the protection of health or morals, or for the protection of the rights or reputation of others, if such restrictions. I don't know enough about Estonia to comment on their ranking, but the rankings are obviously subject to debate.
You can find the most honest television ever at any time of the day, just tune into MSNBC.
the newsroom is another liberal propaganda machine. Be prepared for it.

Exactly.That was a powerful three minutes and the most powerful part was when he was bolting out statistics of why we aren't number one any longer. How we have to strive for excellence and we don't. We are settling for mediocrity in Congress, in our leaders and in our own lives.
Look back in our history. That isn't the way it was. That is what I got out of the message.
