Even though this is an old song (catchy tune, lots of fun) it has lately come into my mind often when the subject of US policies comes up. Polictical Science (also known as "lets drop the big one now")

The phrase "get over itself" always seems to confuse me. As if no one else or nothing else seems to matter but "itself". Which IMO is an ignorant statement.

Do you mean true victory over the current enemy, terrorists?. Otherwise as I tried to convey destroying your enemy so that they no longer exist is a true victory as they will no longer ever be a threat again.
