Epilogue - Superpower or Superleader

My post of 03/09/2007 raised some questions about the future of this country as a superpower. Recent headlines hint of bold challenges to the status of this country as the world's only superpower.

- RUSSIA PLANTS FLAG UNDER NORTH POLE

- RUSSIA, CHINA START JOINT WAR GAMES

- PUTIN REVIVES RUSSIA'S LONG-HAUL BOMBER FLIGHTS

Unfortunately we still have sixteen more months of the Bush Administration - more than enough time to further tarnish the image of the United States as a superpower! We have already squandered our oppotunities to be a superleader.

Incidentally it is reported that Russians are happy with their oil economy and are thankful for President Putin. They really should thank President Bush.
