Cheney said that he doesn't think Obama supports American exceptionalism. Is that bad?

For those that don't know, American exceptionalism is the belief that the USA is somehow different and better than all of the rest of the countries in the world. That we are "more free," "more right," and "more important," even when compared to other democracies or world powers. Do you think that this is a doctrine worth supporting, and is it accurate?

    Naw. It's never good to try to be the best, the most productive, the most powerful, self reliant, and attempt to bring others up to your level. Much better to give in, and drop to their level so they like us

    Yes, bad for Cheney. However, I think the global consensus is that Dick Cheney proudly lives up to his first name better than anyone else in the world, which might actually mean that it's good for Cheney. Why should we care what he thinks anyway?

    Yah and that's the exact attitude that has made it difficult for US people to travel in the world....and having to sew my Canadian flag on their back paks. Remember, Cheney is all about HIMSELF and his money stuffed in his bank account is all HALLIBURTON...thnk about that, my Americano friend.
