    Third?!? I guess we do apparently have a little bit more to offer.

    Lies, lies. No-one likes the French, especially in the US.

    Well, dunno about the world, but the Americans do tend to hate the French with passion. So many people complained about one exact same thing - that the French are snobbish and elitist. Now, I will disagree, as I do not trust the judgement of most of those Americas, but that is another discussion...


    In any case, just wait and see what happens when Obama's feverish spending makes California out of US (a disaster fo that proportion is unlikely to happen, but the US will have to cut back). US budget will be forced to undergo a gastric bypass and America will no longer have money to spend on internal needs, much less throw the dough at the world. Then people will start grumbling...

    And just about the time the budget goes lethargic, Obama's term will strategically end and his hapless white successor will shoulder all the blame, without a colour of skin to shield him. That is when things will get tough for US ...

    When are we going to get the politiconomic blocs?

    A SRS BSNS EU, an expansionalist Russian Federation, a Confederacy of North America (or something similar), etc.

    Well, the poll ran lots of development countries. Given they don't have proper education, one might guess they just answer whatever country they see as the richest.

    Would be interesting to see a poll of the most disliked country in the world, I am kind of sure USA would top that list, too.


    I guess we can compare the USA to Britney Spears. I wouldn't mind having her life style, with limousines, big estates and stuff... But do I like her? Hell no.

    So yeah, USA is to other countries what Britney Spears is to other people. Good job!

    I disagree, Kadagar, Britney Spears is *meh*. I wonder what people will say when they don't have an America to blame all the ills on the world. It was like back when Clinton had the Lewinsky affair, he couldn't catch a break if he wanted to, and then Bush came into power, and Americans lamented their loss of Clinton. The world will lament it's loss of America, when (or if) China or some other non-democracy takes it's place.

    But China would be soo much funnier...

    The ideal of course would be noone takes that place and we all just work together, in reality we all know the EU is most likely to take that place though, and that will be comparable to replacing Bush with Obama.

    I wouldn't want to live with Britney Spears, but I would want to live in America. Bad analogy, though it may work for you.

    I am guessing 1984 appeals to you then.
