How could the US let trolls like this attempt to further decrease the morale of the American people?

"Russian analyst: U.S. will collapse next year"
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29504880/


And he claims Russia is going to take control of Alaska. This troll peed me off. I say he should be banned in Boston.

This came through, "The Associated Press," the largest backbone of the worlds information system putting out all the news. http://www.ap.org/

Credibility of reporters, especially the big honcho of them all, the AP, must be going down the drain. This is garbage I didn't want to go to bed on.

It's a rarity.
Getting a responsible and unbiased piece of journalism like this. Save for the cheerleading of the mystical "skeptical instructor."
You're just pizzed because you are still in denial.

I saw the same story a couple of months ago...maybe on Olbermann? Wherever, it was presented--and came across--as funny. Sort of a 'What will those silly foreigners say next' kind of thing.

LOL Smile

Robot is in denial and does not accept failure as an option for the greatest empire in the history of the world. You're right this is one sensitive robot, becuase it has a new human emotions E3000XT emulator chip in the heart of it's quad-core AMD Opteron 8354 chip based brain.

American can still prevent the great fall, but it's like a rusting hulk of what was once a shiny well oiled machine leading the world into the golden age of technology and capitalism that served up billions, the lifestyle offering autonomous personal freedom. One example of this is Korean woman are allowed to wear short short skirts of their choice along with high heels instead of wearing hanbok dresses covering all skin except the face and hands with hard elf looking shoes. America gave the world the idea of being an individual instead of a member of a collective forced to conform to it's customs.

Maybe the Russian is right, but I'll hold out on saying the US is going to collapse. It is apparent that relations between Russia and the US are degrading.
