Saw this on a message board where lots of folks were bashing the U.S.:

"Everyone hates America except when they come on vacation."

Pray tell, which message board? The DNC website?

I like that. Ive seen one that is similar.

"Everyone hates America, until they need our charity or war machine."

AOL has a site that discusses that puppet video from the Hamas-sponsored childrens show where a kid stabs Bush to death. That video generated about 1700 comments. I found it among them.

The only thing that really bugs me when I'm in the states is how many times Americans remind me that I end my sentences with "eh", eh. Oops I did it again eh.

I remember that not long after we went into Afghanistan or Iraq, there was a semi-famous picture in the news. A couple guys in Pakistan (I think) were holding a sign that said, "America why do you think that the world hates you." My immediate response was to note the ironic truth that, given the long lines of people wanting to get into the U.S. from places like pakistan,the sign may have had lots of rhetorical value, but was actually pretty much nonsense.
