11. notice that they couldn't refute any of your facts.
that's what is so funny about these cheesedicks. You or I could talk all day long, quote facts, figures, etc. to these people, and their eyes will glaze over (or they start looking up and to the left) and their reply will be: move out of the country; you're not christian/american; or you are a traitor/commie/antiamerican

I agree with you about owing the world an apology, but these xenophobic assholes assume that the sun revolves around the US and jesus was an american. For them to acknowledge that someone exists outside of their suburb/trailer park would be an impossible cognitive exercise. So the best thing to do is not mention that you think we owe the world an apology, that is pouring gasoline on their xenophobic fire. The right thing to do is bash them on things they are fanatical about: money, money, money. and money.
"oh, the dollar is in the toilet, didn't 59 million of you righteously elect the guy that said he was for a strong dollar, his party does have a senate majority, you think they would do something about it."(have a counter argument ready for "this isn't his problem")
"the 1.8 trillion dollar social security fund set up by Reagan was looted to pay for the Mesopotamian Misadventure? Too bad, no more checks for you, Mcdonalds is hiring, I hear."
"Prescription drugs cost too much?: Bush's health care plan: don't get sick"
