Who else would have come up with a thread like this apart from expert Drew!! *lol*

*g* Least most countries in Europe have a healthcare system which is more than can be said for the US! :BangBang: Even some alledged "third world" countries have rated higher in healthcare than the US!

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Drew:

Yea.. you posted that cut and paste a few times now.. just more boring each time! :-)

Take your blinkers off and learn something *g*

webby, do you want some french cheese with that whine???????

*lol* Are ya a real US citizen Drew?

Where is the Pacific?

(a) A plateau on the Andies?
(b) An island north of Baffin?
(c) The beach in Californian?


Where is Afghanistan?

(a) In Cosova
(b) At the tip of India
(c) The place we are at war with


The both were hard to get right on a recently survey and many did not even know where Washington was *g* - so what hope!

If you chose (c) you gotta be a US citizen! :BangBang:

*g* Dunno how often I've been told that:

(a) London is in France
(b) Costa Rica is an island off Florida
(c) Antigua is in the Indian Ocean

Not only are many not aware of states in the US, but ask em what it the equivalent of a "state" in Canada (next door neighbor!) and they ain't got one clue! :BangBang:

webby, you are still whining? Wipe your tears my friend. It's getting boring

Europe is Land of appeasers, To me, Europeans have about as much backbone as an invertebrate jellyfish..once again they are burying their heads in the sand when it comes to the Iraqi issue, much like the French who invited the Nazis in to overrun their country. Or could it be that most of Europe is being overrun by muslims?

Have you been in Canada smart webby? Can you name all of their provinces?LOL
Can Europeans name all US states? I dont think so.
Why should americans name all of those pathetic little countries in Europe?

Drew:

Whinning? I ain't whinning.. just amused by the total ignorance and a fetish you got about Europe, Nazi's, Communists, the French and this preoccupation with French cheese! *g*

Sorry you feel so superior to have to mention "pathetic little countries in Europe" :BangBang:

I asked you, can you name all Canadian provinces
and all US states?

Yes I can thank you! :BangBang: I notice Bush is creeping around these "pathetic little countries in Europe" trying but failing to get what he wants.. By the way can you name the Nato countries without getting it screwed?:Graucho

Yes I can name NATO countries. Name all Canadian provinces and teritories, show me

Oh you must be looking for the Atlas....

And then who is stupid...LOL right webby?

Yea and my name is really Santa Claus! :BangBang: How do ya spell atlas? *g*

I noticed you never actually respond to direct stuff.. you agree the US healthcare system is shit? At least in geography, there is some lacking? You agree you got a mental abberation about other countries and beliefs that don't suit ya?

I feel sorry for other more intelligent folks in the US have to tolerate your fetishes and total bollocks!! I got two US guys looking at your messages now and the general thoughts are you are an idiot that leaves little room for others to pigeon hole "Americans" as thick. But again, I got my blinkers off and I already knew otherwise.

Eat them French cheese fingers like momma said! After that I'll take you to kindergaten for two hours..

Yes.
Can you name all the countries in Europe, what about EU :glugglug

Even with a gun to his head, Drew would not be able to name the state he was born in.

Why dont you just say that you can not name them.

Now we know that all americans and webby are stupid.

Drew:

There ya go again! All "assumptions" and bullshit!*lol*

No we don't "know that all americans and webby are stupid" .. I don't give a fuck if you think I am stupid cos you don't matter :-) But to classified whole nations as stupid is just "so Drew"!

European elites and governments tend to have a hatred and fear of their own populations, probably an inheritance from the Europe of old that is exacerbated by the leftist ideology that dominates in Europe. Part of the heritage and worldview of these same groups is a hatred of the United States. The US is seen as the cause of all evil in the world, as well as exemplars of all that is uncivilised. This is not to mention the hypocrisy of greedy, money-grubbing Europeans who lust after Arab money.

*LOL* Fuck me up an apple tree!

Drew.. get a life and some treatment! *g* That ranting may be amusing for some initially.. but you are warped man! :BangBang:

Name those provinces , I bet you can not name them.


Europe has been able to afford their large welfare state is because of the United States. Since WWII, the US has spent hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars protecting Europe from the Soviets. Since Europe has not had to spend much on defense, it has been able to afford the lavish welfare state which they point to as proof of their cultural superiority. What hypocrisy!!

Forget about Europe, it's a dying continent. They no longer believe in themselves and blame the US for their malaise. A weakness of character.
US covers much of its military expenses.During the Cold War, we were willing to carry their weight. But now, with the USSR gone we should make the europeans defend themselves.

ControlThy
Even if I name that state, you wouldnt be able to say where it is anyway.

webby are you american? You must be if you can not name Canadian Provinces.

TeenGodFather, Yes I am sure I can name all euro countries, most of them with Capital cities

Dude, you are a good ol' redneck aren't you?

Yassi

No I am not. LOL

Hey ControlFreak, I was born in Nebraska.
Do you know what is largest city in Nebraska?
You should.

This is getting old... I suggest we get back to the jokes :Graucho

This is an excerpt from the transcript of President
Clinton's deposition concerning events at the White House:

"Monica Lewinsky entered the Oval Office to deliver some papers
to my desk. As she approached the desk, I stood up and walked
around to greet her. As she neared me, she stumbled on the edge
of a throw rug, and fell forward. Her downwards and forward
momentum caused her chin to strike my trousers just below the
waist band dragging my zipper down as she fell. I lurched
forward in an attempt to catch her. My sudden movement must have
caused my member to spring free from its confines. Monica's mouth
was frozen open in surprise & embarrassment. As we moved towards
each other, my flailing member inadvertently fell into her mouth.
I asked if she was OK. Being a woman of fine breeding, she did not
want to speak with her mouth full. Instead she just nodded her
head vigorously. Despite my attempt at self control, the sensation
of her nodding head with my member still trapped in her mouth
caused me to climax. There were no tissues at hand and Monica did
not want to soil the beautiful furnishings of the Oval Office;
so she behaved valiantly & swallowed. We concluded our business,
and she left the office promptly. We never had what I would
consider a sexual relationship, although I did bump into her
from time to time."

And 40 million dollars later we are still debating about
the ramifications of this incident. All of which could have been
prevented had some one taken the time to secure the throw rug.

What leftist ideology? Man, you're talking like a true american, one that has been brainwashed for decades by their government propaganda: "they're all communists out there! they eat little children at breakfast".
That attitude just proves you know NOTHING about Europe cause if you did you would know that at the moment there's almost no distintion whatsoever between the so-called left and right parties. The only movement that's unfortunally has been growing and leaving a trail is the extreme right.
And why? As a countermeasure to the excessive "democracy" and constant pursuit of money and total disregard for the rights of the workers.
I don't have a pollitical party. I don't give a shit for those suckers who are all the same, left or right, who only want to get to power so that they can buy fancy cars. I gave up believing in politicians a couple years ago, when i was 22.

You said that since WW2 the US spent large ammounts of money on Europe. That is very true, and why? Cause we were the only thing between the communists and you guys!
It's common sense, standard defense action!

I'm not saying US is good or bad. I love americans. I just can't stand politicians and their hipocrysy.

Fuck, recently there was a big Ecology meeting where all countries around the world commited themselves in reducing their greenhouse gases emmissions.
All countries signed but one, the US, which is responsible with more than 50% of the total gas emissions.
What does that tells you? Well, it tells me that US government don't gives a DAMN about the rest of the world as long as it still makes a profit.

We, as you, are proud of living in our countries, but we see the bigger picture cause we were not submitted to all this bullshit brainwashing propaganda. Wake up to reality, you are good, but are not better than me and you aren't certainly alone in the world.

If i said something that offended somebody please excuse me but as i said i love the US but not their politics and i'm really having a shitty day so..
but i feel better now!

Like I don't know that, New York ofcourse.
Nebraska is a pretty nice island, i love the palm trees and sun.
How can one not know about Nebraska?

jfkpt
You must be talking about Kyoto, and you are wrong, not all countries signed. What about Australia? and why do you believe that Kyoto will save the earth. Because some junk scientist told you so? Those same people 30 years ago predicted Ice age was coming.
Kyoto will do nothing and is useless.

LOL you must be stupid from Europe then:1orglaugh

jfkpt:

:thumbsup Ya can't help notice that when it suits the US has a distinct habit of "hypocracy" in foreign policy.

There is this odd belief that US is a great "benefit" to the world. In some ways, yea, but in the majority it is one of the world's biggest liabilities.

Pity it is currently run by a half elected asshole who can't see further than "terrorism" and is either incapable or choses to ignore the many problems within the US. The irony is this guy "warns" and "gives notice to" others when he needs to look in his own backyard - but, again, chooses not to! *g*

Because some junk scientist told me so?!
Wake up man, where have you been in the last decades? Why were CFC's forbidden? Why do new refrigerators have a different gas? Why do AC's on new cars don't have CFC's? Why did gasoline became unleaded?
Thousands of scientists linked the increasing temperature to the decrease of the Ozone layer!
But that's just not it! I don't know about you but i'm watching pollution increasing in my city and since there's a single country in the world responsible for more emissions than the rest of the world i think i'm in my right to be pissed off.
Kyoto will do nothing and is useless because YOU made it so and it's with that kind of attitude that you're getting that "fuck the rest of the world" reputation.
So, Kyoto is useless to save the world, but invading Iraq and killing Saddam will do the trick.
And for your information, Ice Ages are cyclical and yes, we should have been passing for one but it's delayed for unknown reasons.

webby, I am sure that Bush will ask you (some nobbody who can not name even canadian provinces) about your opinions. Man you must feel so important.

Drew:

You are not going to admit the US fucked up on Kyoto when Bush was half elected - after having ran a campaign on the "environment" and many other issues on which he since reversed his views? More hypocracy!

The truth is the US cannot survive unless it imports large volumes of fuel. Tis the worst offender on the planet in respect of ecology.

You are just so full of bullshit - "some junk scientist", "you must be stupid from Europe then" and got this pea brain (if any!) - you are an embarassment to the US! :BangBang:

Drew:

Bush ask me? *LOL* They asshole would be told to go fuck himself! *lol* People don't have a right to respect - they earn it and neither you or Bush has come anyplace near earning fuck all! *lol*

Kyoto has nothing to do with ozone layer.
It's about green house gases(carbon dioxide).
carbon dioxide doesnt harm you, you know those
bubbles in your Pepsi, yes that is carbon dioxide.

What are some of the common features of the Global Warming scare and other
widely spread popular beliefs, like astrology, UFOlogy, harmful effects
from low-level nuclear radiation and from electric transmission lines?

1. A tenuous scientific base. There certainly is an atmospheric greenhouse
effect but is it significant?

2. Selective use of empirical evidence by ignoring contrary data. Weather
satellites, balloon sondes, and a variety of proxy data show no current
warming.

3. Misinterpreting other evidence. Deep-ocean warming, shrinking of
glaciers and of Arctic ice-cover, sea-level rise are all evidence of past
not of current warming.

4. Adjusting theories to fit the preferred scenario.

5. Manipulating the media. Manufacturing disaster scenarios

6. Quasi-religious fervor, faith-based acceptance of coming catastrophes.


CO2 is not a pollutant; in any case, the Kyoto Protocol will have only a minimal impact on CO2 levels and on any future warming -- an
(unmeasurable) reduction of 0.02 degrees C by 2050. And the climate may not
even be warming - at least if we believe the credible evidence.There are additional facts that caused the Senate to reject, without a
single dissenting vote, a Kyoto-like accord in 1997 during the Clinton-Gore
administration: Kyoto is unfair to the United States because it does not demand sacrifices from many giant nations like China, India, Brazil and
Mexico. And it would be extremely damaging,raising energy prices and costs of living to US consumers. Estimates range up to $3000 to 4000 annually per
household. Perhaps this is why for three years Clinton never submitted the Protocol to the Senate for ratification.

As I said.. just an embarassment... and ignorant with it!

webby webby
Worst offender? LOL NO, per capita it's Canada
believe me or not. Mainly Alberta.So far Canada is not that sure if they sign that Kyoto.
Do you know that there is the petition that states, "there is no convincing evidence" that carbon dioxide and other so-called greenhouse gases are causing "a catastrophic heating of the Earth's atmosphere and disruption of the Earth's climate." To date, more than 17,000 scientists have signed on. Big number of them from Europe.
And How come that Australians didnt sign it.
US is much cleaner than you think. We dont use coal to heat our houses, like many people in Europe still do. Lead gasoline was baned here
before it was baned in Europe etc...

Ignorant or not, just stay in your country and dont worry what we americans do. Cause you can not do nothing about it. We will not ask you about your opinion. You are one BIG NOBODY my friend.
Just keep bitching and crying. That's the only thing you can do.
