These small-minded, mid Western Americans just don't get it. They've never been out of the little towns and have no idea of the complexity of the world. America still feels safe, and gay marriage is a bigger issue than nuclear proliferation.
China has become a world power, with most of the worlds investment there right now. China is sucking up the world's oil and resources, and will trade with whomever she pleases, including countries like Iran. The USA cannot stop it, and if the truth be told our massive foreign debt is largely owed to China. Coupled with a very strained Taiwan situation (where China holds off invading Taiwan mainly because of threat of American military reprisal), it is a rather cumbersome situation.
But with no knowledge of these issues, small-minded Americans voted the Ape into power again (he has graduated from Chimp status since winning the popular vote). These people think we still call the shots in the rest of the world, and we can annihilate 100,000 innocent Iraqis with no repercussions. We have really fucked it up good.
