37. excuse me?
>America IS NO FRIEND to Europe or any of the rest of the world (except >perhaps Saudi Arabia)

I'm amazed by such a remark. My people have been in the US since before its inception. I'm as American as anybody and I'm an avowed liberal. So you're saying I am damned by the actions of our minority of right-wing nutjobs?

This sounds to me like bigotry, not perception.

America (the REAL America) should be seen as Europe's best friend. Most of us are European. If we're not, then you're as wrong as the people in the US who change "french fries" to "freedom fries".

Sigh...this is so depressing...
