OK I am so sorry it has been 5 months since my first post. As a conciliatory gesture, I will once again fill your brains with the utmost relevant commentary on the most newsworthy of topics. This topic has been weighing on your brain slug's (me) mind for a devil's fortnight (yes, I did just make up the saying "devil's fortnight" and am willing to hear your definitions to apply to said saying). The U.S. still dominates many athletic competitions, including the overall number of gold medals taken during Olympic competitions. Though this jaunty display of domination is in no way representative of our actual influence upon the world community, it does show our insistence upon being respected physically and not necessarily mentally (George W. Bush, U.S.A.'s number one cheerleader). Need confirmation? Think Lance Armstrong, Labron James, and The soccer guy that dated the chick from How I Met Your Mother. This glorification of athletes and our never ending allegiance to them simply serves commercialism and the rubber, colored bracelet industry.
Additionally, let's consider how the U.S. government has favored military build-up to educational funding more than 5-to-1 over the Clinton-Bush-Obama years. Nevermind, let's not considerer. Deeeeeeeepreeeeeesssssingggg.
