I can't say i blame them, but they do. Fact of life. Some people can't handle that, ive accepted it - doesnt mean i have to like it.

I've only been out of country twice. In Belize people were abivalent. We were just tourists. In Barcelona I got some ****, but it wasn't too common. Popular oppinion does seem to be against us, though, and it seems like every foreigner thinks he or she understands American politics when really even 99% of Americans don't understand them. It's annoying in the extreme to hear someone who couldn't name all three branches of the American government try to tell you why [insert politician] is a bastard.
I wouldn't download an Atlantic mod. The Pacific is just as interesting to me and more fresh.
