Like I said in my previous post, just because the current administration might be making some people angry (others were angry at the US before he came into office, so that's not his fault), doesn't mean that Truth and Justice aren't still the American way.

This is why 300 has been taken by so many to be complete propaganda in favor of taking out Iran.

Painfully in the context I used it in isn't so much to be negative, it is sort of an expression meaning that it is not just the way it is but extremely so to the point it is hard to miss. So obvious that it beats you over the head as it were.
Ah, I see what you mean now.
Who says "Truth, justice, and all that other good stuff"? I can't remember that line.
Edit: I think I remember, is it when the boss of the daily planet says "does he still stand for ..."?
If that's the line thank god they changed it. "Does he still stand for truth, justice and the American way?" Yes, that would have been a disaster. Truth and justice, fine.

Really? I had only heard that Iran didn't like it because it supposedly made Persians look bad. Something about wanting to invade other countries and subjugate their people
? Of course, if those same people knew the real story of 300, not just the movie, they might look at it a little differently.
