Yeah you got to admit people are so wise in what they believe, after all, they base their knowledge of what Americans are like from exported television sitcoms [img]smile.gif[/img] TL, it really means squat if "they" think that about the US. There is NOTHING at all that can be done to change their minds, not untill the US is required to do this or that, to rescue these or those, or untill they need us for something will they change that opinion. So why worry about it? Is there some reason we should be courting the world in a popularity contest? Lets just go about our business, ignore the polls and just do as we have done for 200 years, and that is "gone our own way".
It is also worth noting that while all these "peoples" hate the US with a passion, it has not slowed down the immigration attempts an ounce, both legal and illegal. Nor have I seen bushels of foreign aid being returned in protest of the "Nasty Americans".
Edit: You know, I realize this sounds like Im anti-european or anti-some other nation but really Im not. What Im trying to convey is that trying to live your life as if it were a popularity contest is a complete waste of time.
