check this out! an interview with Ahmed Best(actor who did Jar Jars voice)
http://www.scifi.com/sfw/issue154/interview.html

"Were you surprised by the groundswell of anti-Jar Jar reaction?
Best: The majority of it was distorted. We approached the character with such innocence, and it's amazing how [vitriolic the response was]. It pretty much only happened in America; everywhere else in the world, it was no big deal. And things like seeing a completely innocent, docile cartoon character as something to be hated and despised [point to a bigger] problem within the American quote-unquote psyche. We're focusing so much on kill, die, and then we're wondering why people go crazy, why people shoot people, why people have no regard for human life, and yet--and still--the things that are being sensationalized are the things that glorify killing, shooting, maiming and destruction. Rather than say "Die, Jar Jar Binks," say, "Well, personally I didn't like the character, but hey, it was a good job, at least I believed it" [laughs].

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Were you bothered by the negativity?
Best: No, of course not; it doesn't bother me that people are stupid. I'm not stupid."

god, dont make me hate the actor too!
