Topic: What The World Thinks Of The Usa

[Thomas]

america is a lovely country for it's sight seeing, and many of it's locals are friendly...but there are too many problems with america aswell.
But why bring Bush back? When you all seemed to HATE him?
And why is it america won't sign the thing about global warming?
Every other country has! Even Japan!!
America alone makes 20% of the worlds pollution, the remaining 80% is from other countries worldwide.
That poll thing is correct, since I remember them talking about it on Sky News.

Fact is, not everyone hates Bush. You're just seeing that on this forum and there is always a scandal involved. The majority of people who vote are over 50. People vote because of different issues. I personally believe Bush got us into Iraq becasue of oil fields and to finish daddy's business. Not all people believe that and think its because of terrorism. Plus, older people want to make sure they get all their benefits. Not everyone who hates Bush actually knows what they're talking about. Same with Bush lovers.

Well a lot of Americans are pigs and lazy people. They just make the other people look bad.

YAWN!!!  Who cares what other countries think about us.  Duh, they hate us.  This is the best country on the favce of the planet, so they are probably just jealous.

This is exactly the reason why people hate you.  Over here in Australia if an American comes to live here, or visit here or whatever, people are like "Wow, how did you even find out we existed?"

I don't have a problem with all Americans, just ones with MSPs attitude, it's Americans like him that give the rest of you a bad name.  You expect the rest of the world to come rushing at your feet when you have a problem, or you're in trouble and then don't give the people that helped you any thanks at all, it's all America is the greatest this, and America is the greatest that.  I mean, MSP, have you been to every other country on the planet to say that you are the best?  I don't think so!  What exactly are we supposed to be jealous of? The fact that you live in a country full of crime, where 2 people are killed every hour?  Erm...well, sorry to burst your bubble, but I like living in a country where I feel safe walking down the street, and where we only have 1 or 2 killings a month...in a bad month.  Though I would be happy to listen to anything else you have to say that you think might make us jealous.

I can see, however, that most of you are really nice people; it's just some of you that let the others down.  Sorry if I really offended anyone other than MSP, I was just telling you what it's like from someone who isn't from America.
