Time for America to get serious R n R?

Question

I think the economist magazine http://www.economist.com/opinion/displayStory.cfm?source=most_commented&Story_ID=11791539 has got it right about America. The formerly self confident now transformed into outright arrogance and therefore the ego of America cannot handle looking inward. Yet as they say, America has learned before in the past from being simply a joke up until 1940s with its Great Depression etc... Then coming into the worlds military, economic, freedom and innovative envy! Now its suffering from its own ego and needs to have a serious self analysis and simply RnR for a while to get back. America can do it! But as with people EGO makes a good man a moron and humility makes good man brilliant! China's rise is the same thing, it has learned from the past and quickly taking America's position in almost every way. But can America do it? Or do you think the super ego of America break it the same way the empires of old fell? The worst of all enemies is always ones self!

Look at it like this.  Every King [USA] needs a court jester to keep his feet firmly on the ground.  Unfortunately USA does not have a real court jester.  Instead what it has is a bunch of sycophants, the number one culprit being UK-inc.

Occasionally, we should snipe at each other and pull our friends back to Earth before they float off into some other universe inhabited only by the totally insane.

When King Henry VIII demanded of his court jester, "do these make my b.um look fat?"  His Majesty's jester replied, "oooh, what a big b.um, you fat old kingy person" all the time whacking the king over the head with a blown up pigs bladder on a stick.

The king eventually relented and agreed that indeed his b.um did look fat but was happy being a fat old kingy.

So USA, here are three shots in the b.um and bloody well wake up and pay attention.

Although the UK.gov bows and scrapes to the American government, the people of UK do not and I'll be totally honest about this and tell the Americans that there is a lot of anti-American feeling here in UK.

Somehow or other, we've got to get on top of this nonsense and put a stop to it but it can only be done by humour [humor]. So here's something to laugh about - just stop taking yourselves so d**n seriously okay. . . .

If the president of the USA can laugh at himself, so too can the American people.

Were you drunk when you wrote this?  You seem to have strung together a series of random words with little effort or even thought given to having them make any sense.

You have already demonstrated that you lack any spelling, grammar or reasoning skills.  With this posting, you've showed that you know next to nothing about economics, world events or history.  The "R n R" you obviously need is to work on your Reading and Writing.  You obviously are too dumb and lazy to ever learn any Arithmetic.

Good luck with all that, pork chop.
