Oh say can you see....

booyahBy The...Umm... something something something.... As you can tell, I dont know the American National Anthem... I do however know that it is called 'Star Spangled Banner'... and that is from a trivial pursuit card.

Ok. Since some Americans/American Lovers have been taking me to task over my generalisation that 'Americans are ignorant', and there seems to be a general lack of support from others for my statement, I shall hereby retract it. Or at least rephrase it.

Not all Americans are ignorant. Just lots. And those 'lots' have the ability to get on camera and speak for the nation. But really... I think there is a case. Lets start with the 'World Series' baseball. The only country competing in this world series is..... USA!!. Is the USA really a world unto itself?

And lets turn our attention to Hollywood... In the case of advanced alien invaders planning to harvest the planet, the rest of the world will sit around waiting for the USA to figure it out. And when they DO figure it out, an Englishman will actually use the words "Thank God" in reference to Americans, and get off his butt do finally do something. But before the world attacks we will have to wait while a president makes a motivational if not slightly cliche speech about freedom and independance and America being the bestest. Then they go bomb Afghanistan iraq the aliens. Repeat for ALL aliens, arabs and asteriods.

And George W. Bush? Are you guys playing some kind of joke? Cause the rest of the world is looking on, and we really dont get it. Full credit to the guy though, anyone that resembles a chimp THAT CLOSELY and can still get enough votes to take power is cool. Not cool in the fonz way though, cool like steamed vegetables.

To finish, I leave you with this story of the Judge who led the courtroom in a big Superbowl 'Go seahawks' cheer before a sentencing hearing. I mean seriously....

"Ok everyone.... GO SEAHAWKS!! - And Congratulations Sir, you win a prison cell for the next 13.5 years of your life!! BOOYAH"

Ahh.... God Bless America. And Chuck Norris.
(P.S. I dont hate Americans.)
