Thread Name: BS: Who loathes the USA: A quiz from the BBC
Subject: RE: BS: Who loathes the USA: A quiz from the BBC
Bush doctrine is not America and neither is the US government. If you've never lived here then it's hard to describe in words. America is the people and the land that they live on, not a political thing. We are not to be despised or "loathed" simply for being Americans. Give us a chance and loathe us one on one if you can but not en masse. I'm talking about the real Americans who work their asses off and have no control over the things our elected officials get us into. To start a thread with the obviously catchy smartass title "Who LOATHES the USA" is pretty darned loathsome to my thinking. The quiz is fine, the thread title sucked, ...and I overeacted to a flamer,...and I apologise for it, but not for being a person born on America.

To recap:
1. Screw you GUEST
2. My apologies to the board for fanning a flame. I should know better.

Yerz,
Tweed,
