Three words: STUPID WHITE MEN!!!
Yes, I ripped off Michael Moore there, but he's right. There are a whole lot of complete morons in this country that just screw things up and piss off the rest of the world. It's not just the rest of the world that hates Americans. I hate a lot of them too. Damn, I usuually get more pissed off at my fellow Americans than people from other countries. If we would just get these fundamentalist Christian, racist, rich white men (a.k.a. Republicans - and a few of the Dems) out of office, we'd all be better off.
