>Didn't hear them complain when we saved their butts in the war,
If you are referring to England when you say "them", we stood alone in two world wars until the USA finally decided to "join in". My experience of the USA is that she generally does things that suits herself. If the Japanese hadn't bombed Pearl Harbour, who knows what would have happened?
Whoever you are referring to, your attitude displays your arrogance. I suppose you are saving Iraq's "butt" right now?
>or when we help rebuild europe afterwards.
England just made its final WW2 "mortgage" repayment to the USA. Clearly, you didn't do everything out of sheer benevolence.
You make me laugh.
