These people are the most ridiculous people I have ever heard in my life.

I can't take them seriously...they are just so far from the truth as you can get. Their points aren't even valid, and that dumb blonde is the worst of them, because thats what she is, just another bimbo....

holy crap.

Top reason for the hatred towards america in many parts of the world? : People like that dumb blond and what she believes in.

Arrogant, stupid, racist, nationalistic, extreamist, ignorant power hungry gun toting, totally out of step with the rest of the world, idiots.

Do u guys really get this kinda shit on your TV?

Well, I didn't go to that site, but I'll take a crack at a few of these...on myself...

Arrogant?  Absolutely.  I live in the greatest nation on earth...and I know it.

Stupid?  Not hardly.  I wager my IQ against anyone on this forum any day of the week.

Racist?  NEVER.  I hate everyone EQUALLY!  (Okay, that was a joke, I'm not a bit racist).

Nationalistic?  Of course.  I love my country and would die for it in a heartbeat.  My country above all others.  So sue me. :)

Extremist?  Depends who you ask.  I am very strong in my beliefs, and I don't compromise much on what I believe.

Ignorant?  Not at all.

Power Hungry?  Nope.

Gun Toting?  YES!  I have 4.  I love guns.

Totally out of step with the rest of the world?  This might surprise you guys in Europe...BUT WE IN AMERICA LOVE BEING OUT OF STEP WITH THE REST OF THE WORLD!!!  OMG, that's right, we DON'T WANT TO CONFORM TO THE IDEAS OF THE REST OF THE WORLD!  That's why we're better than you.  ;D

Idiots?  Well, sticks and stones may break my bones...but only if you can get close enough to this gun-toting son-of-a-bitch to use them.  ;)

Errm  GS hate to disappoint you but i wasn't actually referring to you!...  your just a Arrogant Nationalistic Gun toting extremist ;) ;)

I knew you weren't...just had to throw that in there, sweetie.  ;D

I just felt the need to put those 2 statements closer together

 ;D

That is all.

I'm ashamed to live in the same country as GS.  ::)

GS, try going to the site before protecting nut jobs like this lady.   You may be arrogant gun toting ect. but this lady is crazy, no other way to put it.  And then the one guy with the bow tie "Canadians all use dog sleds" how ignorant and stupid could you be?

I'm not 100% sure GS was too serious, he's somewhat more enlightened than that bimbo and the half wit, or has proven to be so before.

i'd just like to let you know that i had a very good paragraph explaining why americans are the way they are written out (i think you would have agreed as well GS), but due to my being on a pc, crashing and wall punching ensued. maybe i'll try to reiterate later.

"You dog-sleding bastards" ...

wow, these people are stupid..

USA = ::nade::

 Ethion dont be ignorant, the percent of people that think that are in the small minority.  Hell, half the country didnt even vote for our current administration... dont judge a book by its cover damn it! 

Why must the most ignorant among us be the most prominant on media coverage?

Because the minority always stick out. And i'm not claiming that every american is an asshole.
Just the people i've met, mostly on Xbox Live, is an asshole. They're ignorant, and have so many prejudiced comments.
And seriously out of personal view, americans goes around like they are the biggest in the world, that they control everything. Yes, they help around in the world like WW2. And what is this bs about who won the American civil war? Brits says one thing, the americans says another?
It just feels like USA is full of propaganda, patriots and we must fight for our country, while every mother and father is saying "Get our son home!".

For example, after 9/11 america just bombed afghanistan, saying that they are looking for usama. But it's been three years now, and he still hasn't been found.
I've even seen newspapers(tabloid mostly) saying that americans got Usama bin ladin trapped in a cave, and they are just waiting to attack him. But it was such a lie. Another is that the big earthquake in Asia would have killed him in his cave. Another lie, and i'm not saying that it's americans that are lying. But most of the so called news come from the so called nation.

Even though  most of the nation didn't even vote for the current administration, he is still sitting there being illogical.

And those people on FOX, wtf?

xBox live = 15 year olds that are rich little pricks, expect snobby comments from them
Fox= The most biast and republican favoring news station in the world.

The civil war wasnt about England v Americans, thats the Revolutionary war, and what do the british think?

America didnt bomb afghanistan, George Bush did.  Remember 1/2 of Americans didn't vote for him.

Ethion, him being "illogical" (is that a word?) has nothing to do with the american public in general. 

Just dont think that most of us think the way our government leaders currently do (Ghost Sniper is the only one... the freak!)

not exactly an accurate representation of the american society however. And where there are very valid points u or i might make about Americas forign policy and the 'war on terrorism' etc, its the generalisation and 'america' bashing which undermine them.

But yeah re the news.. no offense but the American news networks seem to really take the piss - they look like more of a chat show than a serious news channel - i think people would get a shock looking at the difference, be it Fox, CNN or whatever.

These people are dumbasses... "they're lucky we're allowing them to be on the same continent"... enough said.  That's the sort of attitude that makes so many people hate America and everbody in America.  These are the people that make me embarrassed to be an American, the type that are so cocky and seem to think that America is the center of the universe...  These people are so arrogant.

I would personally love to live in Canada... I would love to go to school in Canada, unfortunately if I get a student visa to Canada, I'm not allowed to work there while I'm in school.


Speak for yourself...


and good lord Ethion... why are you watching FOX? everybody in cooperation with FOX is a nutjob conservative... alright, maybe not everybody... but you should all be watching Bill Mahr on HBO. ;D

 The Daily Show, and The Colbert Reports are by far the best news shows in the country.

On one hand for some reason, youre accurately able to perceive that Fox has become "infotainment",  while on the other hand, you bring the views of some Puppet with long legs and doll hair in here (while NOW all of a sudden conveniently taking her views and her spiel TOTALLY seriously) to play the America Bashing game.

Well, if you (and the rest of the world) are dense enough to take the schtick of a 'poster girl' for the exaggerated right on a 'Tabloid Show' as any REAL reflection of any collective opinions of any serious americans, Im probably wasting my time defending myself or my country.

Do you remember the talk your parents had with you when they explained that TV wasnt real?
Showbiz does LOTS of things, shock, titilate, enrage, annoy, aggravate, kill, blood....and most importantly....sell ADVERTISING!!!!!!!

O sure, you can counter with, 'But its FOX - its the News', but remember, just a minute ago you ACCURATELY recognized that it is (and always has been) a bastion of what?? ENTERTAINMENT?

Its like taking seriously the political views of Fox Flagships Homer Simpson or Al Bundy and debating them publically, or using them to PROVE that (as evidenced by the lines written for them by standup comics) America sucks....and Homer and Al are rightwing nutjobs.

so yeah..they're all cartoons and um..it's FOX.

So if you are smart enough to call Fox for what it is, dont pretend any level of moral superiority if you're dumb enough to be seriously pointing to the 'talking head idiots' they feature, while bringing me any sort of serious discussion about what a shitty country america is. I aint Biting.

That poor caricature doesnt even believe her own sewage. And if you think she does, she's pulled you in, and youre no longer witnessing a 'show'...youre participating in it. You're revelling in a Tabloid level of intellectualism when discussing ANYTHING important. You are as responsible for the disintegration of the 'rational' realm as well. Hell, Ive seen what passes for 'news publications' in the UK. You cant thow stones at me.

I would get the same reply ive given , if i were to assert, that based on the Sun's Font size on their headlines about the Royal Family (and former frequency of said topic), that every Brit has little altars built to the glory of the queen and her little flock of pasty inbreds and that the life of the average Brit revolves around that freakshow of a family..(The Sun is Britains most widely circulated 'NEWS'paper) You would likely tell me that no one really cares...well...we dont care about Ann either, really

Oh, and for the love of God, if youre taking an Xbox gallup poll, as representative of Americans views on anything....you are a goofball.

You are playing HER game, suckers.

(and if Ann Coulter can make you embarrased to be an American, you're way easy to embarrass)

I watch it, because I can see what is going on in the US, just in a weird way..
And it's like the only american news channel I have..
CNN is international, if not something bad has happened.

Actually, I think you get more accurate political views from America through the simpsons than Fox news itself...

With regards to that Coulter clip, she appeared on a CBC documentary up here and was made to look like an absolute idiot (yeah like that's hard to do).  So I  think that was her rebuttle.  The second clip was in reference to a Canadian TV SHOW SKIT (much like the Daily Show, the program is called This hour has 22 Minutes) In which Ms. Parrish stomps on a George Bush doll.  I think the Republican mood toward Canadians has nothing to do with us at all, and more to do with the Republican hatred toward your Democrats.  Where in MOVIES like Bowling for Columbine, etc.  the Democrat's view of Canada as a utopian society, for some reason really pisses Republicans off.  See the people up here don't really care what Americans think of us, because all of your threats and burns, are equally ignorant and hilarious.  So go back to ignoring us, and we'll go back to taking your money when you come to visit our beautiful country.

 Golo you were wrong just a wee bit...

We dont ignore you, we BLAME you :P

You're not seriously basing your judgement of a nation with over 280 million people on a small selection of teenage jackasses you met online playing a game?!

In your opionion I am, and I didn't claim that every american was acting like this. Just out of my own experience, these people have been acting bad. And yes I know people act weird when they are online, but it's same here or any other place. People pick on minorities, like jews. Everyone thinks it's just a big conspiracy from the jews, that everything that has been is by jewish actions. Which doesn't make any sense at all. But it isn't only teenagers that acts like this, it's grown-ups too.

And Xbox Live does have a majority of americans.. I'm not saying that every american is a rotten egg, one of my teachers is from New Jersey, and she is nice and all.

I call it the Pond-Scum sociology assessment.

They look at that little-bitty paper thin layer,
and well since they cant see under it or through it,
it must be all that fills the pond.

Whether its the little NeoNazi singing girls, the toothless tornado witness, the six or seven people at the top of our administration..its all the same...shit floats to the surface and the loud ones get the airtime.

And as for Canada being a Utopia..whats so Utopian about getting to wait three days for an Xray for a broken arm, six months for a mammogram, or THREE months to actually have the cancer removed.
Um Ew-topia. Ill take my capitalism, thanks.

Ever wonder why Canada doesnt have Hot Nurses? It's because We got em all.
In their mad rush to escape Utopia (where they practically live in poverty on socialist wages) Canadian Nurses outnumber the American ones four to one, in both major colleges ive attended and Both Hospitals ive had extended stays in.

yeah, but, you gotta love that bacon, eh?

What do anti semites have to do with this?  And btw, live does not have close to a majority of americans. As of june last year it had 1 million members in 24 countries. (link (http://www.gamespot.com/news/2004/07/15/news_6102641.html)) It doesn't even have a good cross section of the american demographic given that the average age of a gamer is 30 years old. Only 19% of americans over the age of 50 played video games, and you can bet your ass they weren't playing xbox live with you. (link (http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=538229)).

I was going to say this:

"Well theres a flip side to everything - like they get paid more because in america the more money you have the better health service you get"

And then it occured to me that i don't have any idea if Canada has a NHS or equivalent - or whether its a case of "money = health care, no money = jack shit" ... although we have a private health care system here now which personally i think can go fuck itself up the ass.

so in conclusion i haven't said anything. and it only took me several paragraphs to not say it. thank you.

hahaah, the news you are whining about did it's job.  It created discussion and free advertising for it, much like sheix said kiddies, it's called ratings.

which is a big shame but a reality i guess. The news tells people what they want to know about, tv is nothing but a ratings war.

- like we got huge immense amount of coverage of hurricane Katrina and the little flood that followed (and the very small death toll) and yet we got a fraction of coverage of the earth quake in pakistan / india which has killed in excess of 80,000 people.

still sucks though, but then again outrageous people like that cause a stir, so it does the job.

americans are the way they are because an overwhelming amount of their short history is fear and hatred, egotistical destruction/slavery of indiginous peoples, oppression of it's own, and contempt for all who disagree. there are more than just shades of these things in other nations as well, but america has had a concentrated dose of it. there just seems to a cloud hanging over all the time....when we're not at war, we're on the edge of it, when we're not building, we're destroying...all of which leads to some very tightly wound people who base their entire character on ego and whatever foo foo crap you saw chad on the OC wearing the other day. (i dont know if there is a chad on that show)



and of course i speak of majority, not all. i would never just assume someone is like this, but this is the image we put out to the rest of the world and i feel like it does a very good job of representing our nation. (i'm expecting to hear the ol' ww2 card get played here...well guess what, that was inevitable so we really can't act like it was some super gift to the rest of the world.)

Could you translate that for those of us not "down with the kids" or "laying slip on the streets"  ?

First thing first, you have never, never played for example Halo2 from Europe. And if you would have, you would have noticed how many americans you get matched up with.
Oh, and anti-semites well that is a point of prejudiced. I can almost, and i'm not saying that I hear it everyday, but you can hear it very often in chats and through LIVE.

lol the OC is some tv show about a bunch of yuppy teenagers in california who have rich parents and petty problems.

OH righto, yeah Channel four graced us with that one... really fucking rich kids with even richer parents, the girls are all pretty and the blokes are um... dunno blokey. and they all fall in and outta love and have teen life crisis about each other? yaddy yaddy daddy has a big car

yeah thats the one ::bussi::

Muahah that was funny. Goooooo Americaa!

Other great Ann Coulter quotes -

"We know who the homicidal maniacs are. They are the ones cheering and dancing right now. ¶ We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war." - from her syndicated column, 13 September, 2001

"To The People Of Islam: Just think: If we'd invaded your countries, killed your leaders and converted you to Christianity YOU'D ALL BE OPENING CHRISTMAS PRESENTS RIGHT ABOUT NOW! Merry Christmas." - http://www.anncoulter.com/ (since removed) December 22 - 29, 2004.

"When we were fighting communism, OK, they had mass murderers and gulags, but they were white men and they were sane. Now we're up against absolutely insane savages." - [2], 16 August, 2004

"I think [women] should be armed but should not vote...women have no capacity to understand how money is earned. They have a lot of ideas on how to spend it...it's always more money on education, more money on child care, more money on day care." - Politically Incorrect, February 26, 2001.

"It would be a much better country if women did not vote. That is simply a fact. In fact, in every presidential election since 1950 - except Goldwater in '64 - the Republican would have won, if only the men had voted." - [5] May 17, 2003.

Frankly, I'm not a big fan of the First Amendment." - University of Florida speech, October 20, 2005

"God gave us the earth. We have dominion over the plants, the animals, the trees. God said, 'Earth is yours. Take it. Rape it. It's yours.'" - Fox News, Hannity & Colmes, June 20, 2001.

"I think there should be a literacy test and a poll tax for people to vote." Fox News, Hannity & Colmes, August 17, 1997.

I think the above quotes have a good case for completely invalidating any of her opinions what so ever. As much as GS would like you to believe otherwise, Miss Coulter does not represent the opinions of anyone but herself, and most certainly not anywhere near a % point of the American population.

Shes just a 'legs n tits' version of 'Archie Bunker" or worse,
and any Euros out there even remotely thinking that she has a 'following' other than the carcrash afficionado (and there are plenty) is mistaken, just becuase she appears on Fox pseudo Talk shows (doesnt mean a thing..remember Tits...Legs...FOX)..and trust us when we say, shes only there for the freak factor.


Yeah, she forgets that those were..um...ISREALIS..Dancing on top of a Tenement house taking pictures of the burning towers...Look it up if you doubt me at all.
None of this is going anywhere until some people drop their fear of the Zionists and start pointing blame where it belongs. They have more at stake than anyone, and benefit more than any country in the middle east by insuring continued instability. They would be FUCKED facing the prospect of a unified armed PanArab Alliance, Nukes or Not. They part of the equation beating the war drums in regard to Syria and Iran. they need to send their OWN soldiers to fight these fights, becuase Im FUCKING tired of doing it for them.

You have taken EVERY SINGLE one of these quotes out of context.  You people don't understand political sarcasm at all.  You can't take one sentence and single it out and say "hey, that's what she believes!".  That's just bulllshit.  I have met Ann in person and spoken with her at length...she is a very nice person who simply doesn't bullshit around with "political correctness".  Rush Limbaugh does the same thing...IT'S CALLED SARCASM, PEOPLE![/size]

Anyone remember right after 9/11 some channel showed footage of middle-eastern people dancing and cheering on the streets and presented it as if they were happy about the 9/11 attacks, when it was infact completely unrelated. What channel was that?

Ah, I utilized my awesome google skills and found this (http://www.snopes.com/rumors/cnn.htm), It seems that I should check my sources more carefully  ::)

Donald Rumsfeld is giving the president his daily briefing. He concludes by
saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed in an accident'

"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching
as the President sits, head in hands Finally, the President looks up
and asks..........How many is a Brazillion??
