PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN!

Yeah, we are that great. [sarcastic_blum.gif]





Split the post from the British thread so our American friends can have their own!

Oh yeah, and and along with rock and roll, let us not forget such mainstays of American culture
as the Washington Redskin Cheerleaders (accent on "skin").
Gee, I can't imagine why a conservative Muslim society would feel at all threatened
by the civilizing influence of your U.S. occupying...sorry..."liberating" force...?

Give me your tired, your poor, your cuddly asses yearning to be seized..." God bless America "

If Americans are so proud to be American, how come when they are abroad they always choose to speak really quietly? [confused.gif]

I'm putting my post back where Wiz moved it from ...

it was the first response - so hardly 'derailing a thread' :lol:

I suppose, your living in the UK (holding a UK passport )means that your real country having:

1/ lied it's way into Europe -and then the Euro - successie govts. false declarations re Budget deficits

2/ threatening to veto the EU enlargement of 2004 - unless Cyprus was admitted - whilst the CY prob was unresolved

3/ now being financially screwed - few Greeks pay the correct income taxes - and nearly bringing down the Euro ..

is something to be 'proud' of, too ?

They don't as far as I know. YMMV of course but the stereotype held true pretty consistently as far as I could tell.
