3. They like us for the money we send them, I'm guessing?
As do the other African nations--just about the only thing we're doing right in the world.

Or maybe I'm wrong...

11. "besides our insane foreign policy" ....???!!!!
You are the world's bully. Millions die. I don't really understand the question.
I mean -it's all about your foreign policy, what the hell else? Really,nobody dislikes you because they think that the statue of liberty is preposterous and ugly or because your hot dogs are absolutely tasteless.
It's all foreign policy. That's more than enough... and not only since Bush.

15. Oh, that old map, yeah. I like that one.
Surprised it's taken this long for people to come up with "this is our actual plan" conspiracy theories.

13. So this begs the question why does an organization like the ATC
have some of our politicians in their back pocket?
