An increasingly horrified and embarrassed American – the more I educate myself the worse it gets. Lie any and all other countries – people do good and bad. But the image perpetuated and hypocrisy that allowed Bush to steal 2000 (when I really started to pay attention) and everything since — not to mention the irony of the US being ‘discovered’ and founded by british trying to escape the idiocy and here in latest years is prevails beyond comprehension by the very same claiming to e victims.

I appreciate your post – I have been planning my own for a long time but Bush changes still in effect and become worse make me wary of even this response.

I grew up believing in what is right. That my vote counts and I never knew of prejudice until I experienced against myself and had to learn what I had been hearing about but still have yet to understand.

even those that are lying openly admit it on camera these days yet somehow, their followers STILL support them and somehow spin a conspiracy while discrediting and attacking all others that dare to disagree. Of course holding a bible and being crapped in a flag scares even more otherwise intelligent people to be quiet. And those with all the money and therefore power being turned into victims.

It’s not new in history – but as you know, Most Americans history is VERY limited – something else I don’t think is an accident. —-

Anyone in or out of the states with valid and sincere advice/references/connections?

Well you see, one of these things are happening, you know I’m right and you want me to shut up because you can’t say anything else, or I am just pissing you off with my rants, or you can invalidate my arguments but you have yet to do so, I will return at a random time.

America didn’t invent telephones, Canada did. The light bulb was not american, Edison worked with joseph swan, a British, he made the light bulb and sold the ownership to Edison so he could sell it in a,Erica proclaiming that he was the inventor, the idea of flight came from France, Fance also invented cars, not America, America hardly invented anything, the radio was Russian and so is space flight, you guys inveted McDonald’s, KFC, and burger king, great job America!! Self propelled ships were invented by the Spanish or the British I think, the atomic bomb had only 1 American scientist working on it, the other 40 were Europeans, America makes such a big deal about WW2, I know, it’s sad, 60 million people killed, and how many of those were American? About 400,000, you don’t see russia or France making such a big ceremony about it and they had the most casualties. And no, it has nothing to do with how ‘good’ America is at war, it’s because the Americas ( north and south) are separated by oceans on all sides. America has no money, the majority of the population have a lot of debt even though houses are cheap and you get payed more than us ( Canada) .

well golly gee whiz trollhunter

Have you considered the merits and benefits of fucking off?

Yes I agree with the guy above me, the idea of cars came form germany, the idea of flight came from France, phones came from Canada, radioes and space flight came from Russia, the light bulb was actually invented by Joseph swan, a British scientist who let Edison sell the idea in America, the Russian military is stronger than the American military, they think they won Vietnam, they lost that miserably, they think they are better and the British because they won the war of independence, Britain had better things to worry about such as Napoleon and economic expansion and growth, the USA is not a superpower, they are $14,000,000,000,000 ($14 trillion for you Americans) in debt mostly thanks to George bush whom they stupidly elected twice. Th nuclear bomb was built in collaboration with other allied scientists, of which only 1 was american, they make such a big deal about WW2 even though mainland US was never invaded, you don’t see France, Germany, Russia, Poland, or Britain making such a big deal out of it do you? And most Americans don’t know the meaning of Christmas, Christmas is when Jesus was born, it is not Santa time or party time, it prayer time and family time, and Easter is more important than Christmas because Easter is when jesus died to forgive us of our sins, it’s not Easter bunny time or Easter egg time, or party time. It is prayer time, church time and family time. Also, Americans are racist idiots who blame everything on the black guy ( you know who I’m talking about you slave masters), and worship the white guy. The united states will fall to wither china or Russia, you are hypocrites, you are in major debt by yourself and yet you make fun of Europe when it has to combine all of its debt to match america’s. And it’s your fault anyways, you didn’t pay them back so they lost money and went into debt, and shut up about Greece, it’s a sad story, no one pays taxes and probably Turkey will buy Greece, also Americans cheat on their taxes, American families typically make over $100,000 ( $100 thousand) a year and still go into debt although everything is cheap there, here in Canada, families usually make $50,000 a year although house prices here suck, $750,000 for a house that costs $75,000 in the US.

The phone was invented by Canadians, and the car was invented in Germany and the British were the first to study electricity

Also whenever I watch CNN, they say it’s world news but they only show it if it involves america, remember the Japan earthquake, did you listen to what they said? over 12000 people are either missing or dead, and among them were 43 americans or something. No offense to the dead but really???? Out of the 12000 only 43 matter to the us, recently on new years, there was a 6.8 after shock in Japan and all CNN was showing was a 3.9 earthquake in Ohio and how worried they were, you ******* serious??? Another thing about the news, when Michael Jackson died every single news network covered that for a few days, CNN covered it for 3 weeks nonstop, while I like Michael Jackson, 3 weeks is a bit too much. And American courts are sometimes odd, OJ simpson was freed because a fucking glove was tight, again, really??????? Casey Anthony was freed despite all the evidence against her, and yet again, really?????????

I would say about 40% of Americans are idiots, most of those idiots are a$$holes, not all Americans are bad, but I’ve known some and they all seem a bit too patriotic and are quick to defend their country when I insult it. For example ‘why do Americans think they are the world?’ my friends would reply, HEY Americans are most of the world because they are they most powerful.
……….? Americans are also racist and stereotypical and have started the Iraq war because they want oil, bush said sad dam Hussein was building WMDs, so they invaded and found nothing, now there picking on iran doing the same thing ‘Iran is building nukes!!!!!!!! He the hell would they no that, sure there enriching uranium but that could just be for power plants. Some of them say e are Americans, and then some crap after that, that I can’t remember, but do they know that theres no such thing as a true Americans? All americans are the descendants of mixed Europeans 400 years ago. I admit my info is a little biased but opinions by definition are biased. Btw a couple of years ago there was a survey which fund out that 7 out of 10 Americans don’t know where Iraq is

The real problem is that we Americans (people that live in the US) are not stupidity, but rather something more basic. Many follow without complete knowledge. We don’t know how the actions of one decision effect the rest of the World. Yet many of us argue points as if we were all knowing. As one who has studied law, tax, economics…I am proud of the decisions that our leaders have made. We as a republic are lucky to not have a dictator slash power hungry nut as a ruler. Or at least, our founding fathers were smarter enough to develop a government that would not allow a nut to stay in office. However, as well as that seems to have worked for the executive branch, I am sad to say that we let our legislative branch
gives so much leeway to this point. In other words, why are there so many legislative politicians that have made a career out of being a senator or congress person? Even though the judicial branch is really no better, I believe that the argument for experience places a much bigger role in the judicial branch, and therefore longer terms seems more acceptable. At any rate, I really wish we, US Americans, could change how the election system works. I find it terrible that our leaders twist, manipulate, and outright lie to us in their process to become an elected official. Tactics that are used for arguments between election candidates in all branches, specifically, the legislative and executive branch should not allow deception.

Stupidity and Ignorance are two different things, the former is largely an innate characteristic the latter, ignorance, is simply a lack of knowledge. Addressing the former, stupidity, or for purposes of simplicity IQ is measured cross-culturally and cross-racially. Because America is a heterogeneous county the average or mean IQ is lower than many European and Asian countries because 12 to 13 percent of the country’s population has an average (mean) IQ of 84. Naturally when this lower IQ population is factored in it depresses the overall average. The only arguments in opposition are personal attacks, off subject emotional tirades or the ever so tedious Marxian-Sociological mumbo jumbo.
