(24,979 posts)1. This one's on the reactionary side:
It's not like they really said anything substantive or worthwhile about the countries they happened to mention. They ignored the reality of the global situation exactly as they did the reality of the domestic. (Besides that the last debate was supposed to be about foreign policy, so the cartoon should have been done after the first, where they managed to talk a lot of bullshit about deficits, entitlements and "fiscal cliff" without mentioning the poor or the real state of the American majority as opposed to the 1% who are responsible.)
And those countries have plenty of people affected by the actions of USG. (As long we maintain an empire that affects their lives, I think they should get to vote in our elections, don't you?)
