    I don't like US government and their imperialist politics, but I have nothing against Americans as long as they're not blind brainwashed patriots.

    No, I'm definetely not Anti-American.
    I don't think I could be Anti-whatever nation, sorry, I don't like such collectivist thinking :p
    As for the govt., OK, I'm far from being a supporter, but that goes for all non-liberal (classical liberal, to be more precise) governments, nor am I a fan of the US foreign policy..

    I'm pro-American. I think that the 17th century American Revolution and the declaration of independence was one of the milestones - together with the French and Russian revolutions - in human social evolution.
    The US has also provided myself with a vast canon of wonderful culture, both in terms of books and music (and much more!), and of course helped us out in the Second World War.
    However, something in the US has gone drastically wrong, and equates to the dictatorship of money and privilege of the many: this effects both domestic and international policy.
    Again and again and again in the post-war world this has reared its ugly head on the world stage, the latest incarnation of this being George Bush and his fundamentalist demagogues.

    Meanwhile I think you have the worst administration of the world :eek:

    Actually that is not true, a lot of people in the middle east hate that we are exporting our culture to them.

    1 I'm not ignorant.
    2) I'm kinda dumb
    3) I'm stupid
    4) My mom had to help me log into DP

    I believe a lot of politicians are self serving but I have no doubts that maybe some really serve for the sake of their nations. But if you ask me to name them I won't be. Guess those will be occupying some of the smaller benches :)

    I personally am not fond of any of them. The sad part is that I will have to decide which one I dis-like the least. The "lesser of the evils" I guess you could say.

    The position our government has put the US in (be it Republican or Democrat, b/c it is getting to where it doesn't matter anymore) is definitely not on the right track. The good thing is that more and more American citizens are getting involved and voicing their opinion. Now we just have to wait for our voices to be heard!

    I'm anti-American Administration because people like Dick Cheney are hell bent on ruining the world. But I'm not anti-American against American people, most Americans are nice people, it's just a shame they are being governed by utter scumbags.

    Thank you, that is so funny. I am not sure, but I think this guy might be slightly stoned.
    Edit: Hey, are you sure those are real Americans apoligizing? Look at this guy. I think it's French people posing as apoligetic Americans. Ha Ha:)

    The world has got 100x more dangerous after your invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan. There are more likely to be attacks in western countries now, and you are responsible.
