re: more like the Top 5 straw men arguments liberals love to bring up These are strawmen? I seem to hear this stuff on this thread almost every day. MYTH 1: The US was founded on Christian principles. MYTH 2: US Conservatives tend to be patriotic, ethical Americans; liberals tend to hate America and are immoral. MYTH 3. The US has a liberal media. MYTH 4. The US doesn’t need improvement compared to other countries; it is the greatest country in the world. MYTH 5: The US government loves to help other countries.

By the way, it's interesting to see Sweden and Finland appear on most of the "Top Nations" lists used to "rebuke" Myth #4. Maybe for my next Europe trip, I'll travel to those two countries and see just how far "advanced" they are. You'll be surprised.......they are actually cleaner than Germany and Switzerland......but they have the worst weather.
