what does the monroe doctrine have to do with our "were going to tell everyone else what to do" attitude? and come on.. your really going to tell me that thats not true or "bogus nonsense"? then why is it we get atomic weapons but no one else does? why is it that we are trying our hardest to "own" the internet. there is no denying that the us seems to think that every one of our opinions can be the only opinion.
