I agree. Four years after the end of WWII, the U.S. had about 200 atom bombs and no one else had even one yet. No nation in history had ever had that much military superiority over the rest of the world. As you say, that means the U.S. during that period could have dictated terms to every other nation in the world, if it really had been anything like the evil, imperialist aggressor commie America-haters are so fond of claiming it is.
What you may be failing to consider is what millions of people in this country--the really cool, righteous, evolved people--have learned through several decades of politically correct indoctrination--I mean education--in our wonderful public schools. And that is that all non-whites in the world are beautiful souls who are wise, peace-loving, and in harmony with the planet. America, in contrast, led by white Christian men, shows all the corruption that comes with greedy capitalist "civilization." This country is the source and font of all the world's evil, filled with resource-guzzling yahoos who rampage and exploit and pollute all over the world, invading, ravaging, and murdering innocent non-white men, women, and children just because they breathe.
I'm glad to see we finally have a president who's hip enough to know it's high time we arrogant American cowboys were humbled before the world. 9/11, which we obviously had coming, was a start. We provoked those poor Muslims with our aggression, until finally they could not take any more and taught us a lesson. And Mr. Obama, with his unique sensitivity to non-white foreigners, has done his best to cut us down a couple more pegs still. But there's much more to be done--Americans have to rid themselves of this hokey, Ozzie-and-Harriet-era pride in this country, once and for all.
