    Yes, I do! I find it quite amusing that America was schooled by Putin on exceptionalism.

    For a country one who claims to boast its own national exceptionalism and moral superiority. Yet, forgets to mention they are the holders of the largest national debt known to man. If you ask me. I find this fact hardly exceptional or superior ... heck it's not even moral!
