The Americans probably thought Bosnia was a town in Miami.


Not to start any bickering or anything, but I love how the British classify Americans as idiots, then promptly join America in war after war all over the globe :)


s*** Americans are pretty dumb when it comes to countries outside of their own States! My dad drove across America in the 70s. and everyone along the way thought he and his friends were English because of his accent.

Recently when a work colleague of mine told me he drove from LA to NY for a holiday, i asked him if the locals along the way knew what Nationality he and his fellow travelers were and to my shock even in this modern day they still think Australians are English :banghead:

The point I was trying to make was closer to...people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw rocks. The world feels Americans are dumb, yet the world follows our lead over and over. The world might need a new role model :)
I'm not disagreeing with the fact that the vast majority of Americans could use a geography lesson or 50.

It is difficult sometimes for us american's to distinguish the brit accent from the aussie accent but it is not entirely our fault because there are alot of similarity's. I would not call those american's dumb just ignorant because there is a distinct difference between the two term's. Hey we can't be all that bad as we let you into our country right! :thumbup:

ps,
There are ignorant people all over the world who could make the same mistake it's not JUST Americans :wink: .

Bush Committed genocide in a way more insidious way. The military recruiting/jingoism indoctrination was so blatantly centred on poor black communities. People who had little or no income and therefor paid next to no taxes.

Americans haven't given me anything to think they're dumb. here's dumb:
Ford of Canada is dumb. The EPA ruled that mercury is not allowed in cars anymore(you knkow, for trunk light switches and the like). Well then all of a sudden, You can't buy a car named Mercury in Canada!

Bud, you are starting to sound like Max Mosley but he used the term looney. Its not your fault that you harbor the view of Americans the way you do, you were just brought up that way.

Erm...I dont follow anyone, in politics or whatever. I dont know anyone who does. Like most working class people I have no say or choice in foreign policy. Democracy tells us we have a choice who to vote for but we dont pick the candidates. Life for me consist of looking after my family and playing Guitar Mandolin and Bass watching Formula one and the odd pint of beer. Im not even irked right now. I just think this smiley is cool. :irked:

We are getting alittle/alot OT here which I contributed too I admit so let's try to 'turn this car around' what say you? :wavey:

Yes true I'm guilty of going off topic in this thread so I will now steer back.
What we are all thinking about Bernie's latest mouth diarrhoea is that he can no longer surprise us. When he spews more garbage, it's no news so really a new thread isn't needed every time he does.

what are you on mate? prove me wrong! a large amount of americans are stupid looney whatever when it comes to geography! FACT the world begins and ends with their 50 states and probably have trouble finding Canada and Mexico let alone Australia on a world map! :thumbup:
