"i mean really why do most ppl think all americans are mentally retarded like bush......"
because every second of you tends to vote republican (conservative imperalistic power-to-the-rich people)
because you have no clue about ecology and don't even give a damn
because you never oppose the actions of the CIA (esp. attemted coups like 1954 in guatemala, 1973 in chile, 2002 in venezuela) or of the FBI (for example the murder of Fred Hampton 1969)
because you call your two-party-system democracy
because your country has a double moral standard (war on terror, but hide terrorists like Luis Posada Carriles; say you support democracy, but yet you prefer right-wing military dicatorships over left-wing democratically elected cabinets, esp. in south america, but also for example in Angola (MPLA))
because you spend 400 billion dollars per year on armory (which are 42% of the global spending on armory; source
http://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/0,1518,487849,00.html ) whcih means you are the most militaristic state in the world
because your country is the richest in the world and doesn't even have a free healthcare system. you even have urban ghettos in the big cities, what the hell?
because your media is fucked up (fox news... but also CNN sucks at times, see

... and most of all, that most of you don't seem to give a damn about the rest of the world, see
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJuNgBkloFE as an example. patriotism is perfect to support that status quo.
etc etc etc
sorry i'm drunk.
no offense meant.
