There is no way to measure greatness of the USA. We spend billions helping others. Why do so many repub politicians say we aren't?

I chose no way. The USA ceased being a great country decades ago.

I would have put I hate it and want to leave except for the fact that all of Western Civilization has been overtaken by the same groups of elites, the .00001%, so leaving for somewhere else really is not an option. Since "They" operate and control globally, so moving to another plantation is like moving to the next desert looking for water.

The truth of it is that the Socialist countries give far more than we do.

Barack Obama has spent his entire political career telling us how unexceptional America is, either through his words or his actions. Yeah, he pays lip service to America being great, but we all know what he really thinks. Just like we know what liberals really think.

Afterall, how many times do we have to be compared to other "civilized nations" before we finally understand that liberals don't like America in its current form and never have?

America is a great country. Always has been. Never, ever listen to a liberal who proclaims that they believe the same, though.

Because we are paying for it. Are you paying your fair share too?
