@Alex I think @supagold parsed my statement pretty well saying that the larger point is that such a moniker of "Greatest" or "Best" would come down to subjective criteria. However I also think @supagold is right on target with the comment about people voting with their feet.

GW: Norway is a constitutional monarchy. They have a King. They only finally codified religious freedom in 1956 as opposed to having it front and center in their constitution from the beginning so you might want to pick another country to compare the U.S. to. And those countries who have what the U.S. has do so because they are trying to copy the success the U.S. has had. Name me one constitutional republic that predates the U.S. and is still standing today. Maybe there is one. I don't know. I just kind of doubt it.

America's greatness doesn't have anything to do with statistics. Any country can be made to look good or bad using any number of conflicting reports and studies. That's not saying that the U.S. doesn't have problems and issues that need to be dealt with but that is a part of the human condition that is true throughout the world no matter what the country. What makes America great are the high ideals and standards spelled out in our founding documents and our continuous struggle to live up to, fulfill, and fight for them. That is what makes America exceptional. So bite me Aaron Sorkin! Oh yeah, freedom of speech is also one of those things that makes America great.

Unlike the Honey Badger, the Cuscus does care and therefore is highly prized as a sympathetic and attentive companion amongst the people of Papua New Guinea.

Apparently somebody missed Day 1 of Marketing 101. If I remember correctly the title of that introductory lecture and the complete text was as follows:

Sex sells.

So the guy is making a statement against sexism by implying that the male body is the standard a woman's body should be measured against? Hmmm. Logic much? How about just trying to pose real women in these poses and take pictures that show how unnatural they are. But I guess that wouldn't get him the kind of free publicity for his books that he is obviously going for.

It's amazing to see what the Tea Party protests of 2009/2010 sparked off! Who would have thought that such a humble group of freedom loving citizens would inspire the world?

Don't forget the Triceratops which has recently been revealed by scientists to just be a juvenile Torosaurus. To which the Triceratops was heard to say "I know you are but what am I?"
