Donwfall of a Another Superpower?

The Lakers and Celtics haven't won anything in a while (and no, Javaris Crittenton and Ray Allen are not changing that). The football powerhouse 49ers and Raiders continue to stink up the Bay Area (should have drafted Aaron Rodgers and Matt Leinart, respectively). Even the ultimate deficit spender, the Yankees, are below .500 and look unlikely to make the playoffs. Now this. Sure, they can screen out random brown people at the airport and wiretap innocent people's phones without warrants, but, hey, you can buy do-it-yourself nuke kits! (just a matter of time before you can "Buy it Now" on eBay). My parents (and likely many of yours) moved to the U.S. to get a better life for their children. With the morons we have on top these days, I wonder where I'll be moving ten years from now to brighten my own kids' future.
