*G* We don't bash the French, GePap....we merely offer constructive criticism about their (and other European) governments.
Turns out tho, that the Euros aren't much better at taking criticism than we are....

The list of published books grows. If you're curious to see what sort of stories I weave out, head to Amazon.com and do an author search for "Christopher Hartpence." Help support Candle'Bre, a game created by gamers FOR gamers. All proceeds from my published works go directly to the project.
Personally it's because I live here, so I can see all the BS firsthand. They say "walk a mile ...", and I have, and AFAIAC U.S. bashing is fully justified.

People are stupid. They watch our TV, listen to our music, buy our stuff and look like us. Bash us in the same breath....they assume thats how we are. Which is utter BS. The Europeans would condemn us for our Morals yet they are without a doubt the most immoral people on earth.
Then ask them if they would like to live in america.
"Please take me with you"
In conclusion. There are alot of Reject-hippie f@gs who dont like us for one reason or another and like to use us a scapegoats. If crops dont grow in country X then it must be america's fault...surely!
On the flip side I actually enjoy being part of the great satan. You see they talk alot of ****. But when you actually go to places in Europe and Japan everybody is talking to you and you suddenly become the center of attention. Its like why? Im just american folks! What makes me unique? Nothing...nada.Im not unique at all. For some reason others think I am. The girls in countries ive been to have 17 million questions to ask about america in broken english.
They say our girls are whores and stuff. Our women are the hardest to get anywhere ive ever been. In france if you have hung out with a girl for 6 hours or more your gaurunteed to get some! Its a given.

And you wonder why people don't like the US.
I don't know many Europeans who would use the phrase "Reject-hippie f@gs"

ahh hippies. And you see why we dont like Europe? We are somehow automatically labeled Hypo-conservatives or evil Fascists. Which is funny cause im a libertarian and voted for Browne
I think it could be because the European countries have been working for 1000s of years to build themselves up to their current position, only to see the USA become that most prominet nation after only half a millenia of existence.
It's kind of like a real-life analogy I like to use. I am a golfer. I have been playing for about 3-4 years, and can still only get the ball to around 150 yards with a driver. Then, one of my friends (a girl, no less. Not stereotyping, but generally men DO hit further than women) plays for the first time and gets the ball something like over 200 yards, and repeatedly. It makes it seem like all of my hard work, practice, and experiance are worthless, and I should give up now while I'm still somewhat ahead. It's just a feeling of frustration and uselessness (or something like it).
I'm just waiting for another one of my friends to pick up a piano for the first time and play the third movement of moonlight sonata without error, dynamics and all, a tempo .
Ehhh, I'm sick of this back and forth crap about America, but hell, I've got nothing better to do.
It's not America's practices. It's a powerful nation. Of course, its going to exert itself on other people. What's wrong with America is the self-righteous and the absolute denial of any wrong-doing that is the problem.
If America just fessed up to the fact that its not doing anything different than any other empire, then I personally wouldn't have any beef.
Dom Pedro II - 2nd and last Emperor of the Empire of Brazil (1831 - 1889).
I truly believe that America is the world's second chance. I only hope we get a third...
