I'm not in the least embarrased. But this has already been worked to death on the Osama's Letter thread. To keep posting this kind of tripe comes under the heading of 'tell a lie often enough, ...'. Any one interested can go read that thread up to the point it turned into a theological discussion and get a pretty good idea of both the 'We're so Bad' and the 'We're Bad' camps.
CSN, I am not sure how to take that, all countires, like people make mistakes. Are you embarrassed for yours?
I think we have our ups and our downs all the time, thats just the way it is.
And I have news for whoever the idiot is that did this webpage, we are Americans, we arent supposed to be good or bad, just Americans........
That was great!
Too bad America has always been evil and corrupt, eh?
All too true. The Chimp 'n' Chief is truly ruining the country and endangering the world. I can't decide who I'm most afraid of Al Queda or The Bush Junta. The both hate my values and beliefs and they both want people like me dead or imprisoned.
I am not embarassed by my country. I love America. I love the principles it was founded on, I love the different cultures within it, and I love its people, for the most part.Quote:

I am embarassed by my government, and so should most Americans be.
FatherDog, actually just before you posted I was thinking I should have put it just like you did!
I'm just wondering what other country spends more in Aid than the usa and is willing to help out in relief as much as usa.
The afganies seem to be a happier people now that they can
Shave
listen to music
fly kites
women can work and profit
Women can LEARN
People can dance
and if willing take up martial arts
Sound like a good deal.
Yeah it did take a few civilian casualities.
But I don't think any other country is as accurate as usa.
corruption---
My God, every country has corruption.
You hear about it more here because we are so dammm free and open with freedom of press and speech unlike other countries where the press is state RUN.
Do you REALLY think the press isn't state run in the USA or UK?
Last I looked, Japan gives the most aid.Quote:

...
If you look at how much the USA gives as a %age of its GDP, it isn't really that amazing.
State run? In the U.S.? Nope, nada.
Heavily influenced by it's power brokers? Sure.
Influenced by common cultural predujices or attitudes? You bet.
The press is becoming less and less free as it gets gobbled up and consolidated, but it is far freer here and in the E.U. than in most other parts of the world.
So there.
oh no, why did another thread have to be started on the US and its policies??
Oneday someones really gonna stress the truth.....
Pretty much of the time, what I see on T.V. is america bashing and or Bush bashing, pointing out every little flaw we make,and thats on our T.V.
I wonder what there saying on middle eastern T.V.
Probably alot of saddam bashing.
---------NOT ------------
Small Example:
3 mile island.. We let the press know. We let the people know.
We let the world know about our big F**k up.
USSR..Chernobel ..We found out about it because geigercounters were having extremely high reading in europe.
But isn't that the great thing about living in a free state - you can criticise your leadership as much as you want? In fact, you can pretty much say anything you want. As long as it is PC that is :D
Yes Logic but you do not hear about every single blunder or move your country makes do you?
