I was only aware of this heap of shit because they were discussing it on the radio ealier today here in the UK. Seems to be Britain's answer to Fux.

1. Are they saying that England and the rest of the world is incompetent?

Seems like a slap in the face to the rest of the planet to me.

[whistle]

2. Sounds like the Scoop Jackson Society of the UK might have...

...produced this. A world without America would be exactly what the neo-conservative imperialist monarchy of Great Britain would love to see! That is complete propaganda.

3. exactly n/t

4. Simply put

it's a set of really stupid answers to even more moronic questions. The people who run that site must be really sad bastards.

6. That is one of their own websites

It states it's an 18 Doughty Street websites. I've concluded we must have an active Repug cell in the UK. Tossers.x(

7. We're Like England's Children

and your assholes taught our assholes well..........

Me, I'm glad my ancestors were on Cromwell's shit list......

8. Questions, Questions

So, who is in America? Native American? or is it just kinda there...empty.

"Saddam is a man we can do business with." Wasn't that Rumsfeld? In fact, would Saddam even exist if it weren't for America?

I find it hard to believe that no one would have come up with a vaccine for polio by now.

God this crap makes my brain hurt.

Is this how simplistic and juvenile patriotism has become?

9. The narrator's voice

reminds me of John Hurt who played the dictator in V for Vendetta...

actually thinking about it, he sounds more like Sean Pertwee who played the dictator in Equilibrium.

10. Except for the part about Iraq, they're right. America HAS, on balance, been good to the world.

11. Good point..

The reality is that it's a minority who are anti-American but a majority who are anti-Bush.

(I wish there would be a side-by-side comparison of global approval ratings of Clinton vs Bush II).
