| Tovarich Albright: USA No Longer Intends To Be World's No.1 State | |
| 2009-09-19 | |
| [Pravda.Ru] Madeleine Albright said during the meeting that America no longer had the intention of being the first nation of the world. Ms. Albright started her speech in Russian. "Hello and thank you! It's a pleasure for me to be here," she said in Russian. Albright wrote in her autobiography that she was trying to learn some Russian during the 1960s. The former US Secretary of State surprised the audience with her speech. She particularly said that democracy was not the perfect system. "It can be contradictory, corrupt and may have security problems," Albright said. America has been having hard times recently, Albright said. "We have been talking about our exceptionalism during the recent eight years. Now, an average American wants to stay at home -- they do not need any overseas adventures. We do not need new enemies," Albright said adding that Beijing, London and Delhi became a serious competition for Washington and New York. "My generation has made many mistakes. We give the future into the hands of the young. Your prime goal is to overcome the gap between the poor and the rich,' the former head of the US foreign political department said.

| #2 Don't think that Pravda is that far off on this one. Albright is a member of the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), which is right up there with SPECTRE for being a collective of whacked out supervillain failures, from Henry Kissinger, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Harold Brown, Richard Armitage, etc. |

| #1 Halfbright--a dangerous nitwit--a leftist who would make the world more dangerous rather than less. What's with all these Marxists having a "collective" wet dream? |
