What is even more arrogant is to imply that the USA is so awesome so as to be beyond criticism. The US does its fair share of lecturing too.
And what's this can't stand to face their own problems stuff... honestly, where the hell do you get your view of Europe from?
I'll second that!
Nothing to add. What goes around, comes around.

-S[/quote]Just a few here SUBMAN. I have been to A few European Countries. While in Germany I had a great time and was treated wonderfully. That was during Regan's presidency though... I never bought a beer in England either...Great folks! France was another story altogether. I have never met such snobs in my life. I thought this attitude was just an alleged stereotype, but no, they live up to it. My Dad told me a story of our uncle Pete. Uncle Pete was always in trouble and always needed the families help. My Dad often obliged and helped him out. You would think Pete would be thankful, but no, he had an attitude and was never grateful to those who helped him out and often spoke of my Dad very negatively. I have to think that some Europeans are like that. Even though WWI and II were some time ago, this type of attitude persists in some of them. They would relish in the demise of America rather than realizing a historical truth, that a strong America is good for them as well...

What is Europe?

Europe is France making policy and the other countries pay the bill for it. :rotfl:

Not too serious, but true to some point. There are French people, I know, who are pretty cool too.

Cheers,
Michael

This imply that the ENTIRE European continent is lecturing or "bashing" you americans. I'm gonna do your race for once Subman, and demand 100% proof to this "fact". If you cannot give me that, then I'll ignore this statement and regard it as a lie. (which I do anyway, well, I don't ignore it, but I certainly regard it as a lie and as a very rude thing to say).

As an Englishman, I don't really consider myself to be a part of 'europe' ... *shuffles feet* that's politician talk.

I've never sanctioned anything they do in my own country, let alone anything in some nerdy euro cabinet minister club where disgraced British mp's go to rejuvenate their careers somewhere where no-one has heard of them and their nasty little deals
And there's more

Great times we live in, I say. Great times.

:p

Don't worry! I blame everyone for the problems. I use to blame myself, but I said sorry and forgave me!

I think every droped the ball on this one. Now everyone has to work together to help fix it!

Happy is the person who finds fault with himself instead of finding fault with others...

Do you mean: "do as I do, not as I say?"
