Appearing on the "Tonight Show with Jay Leno" last night, comedian Dennis Miller blasted the beleaguered Newsweek magazine for ranking the United States the 11th "best country in the world," behind left-of-center nations like Finland, Switzerland, and Sweden.

Performing on Veterans Day for an audience comprised of American military personnel, Miller showed his patriotic stripes: "Hey, Newsweek, go fjord yourself okay. Finland is the s--- little plastic village you set up under the Christmas tree every year."

An impassioned Miller quipped: "The best thing about living in Finland is they don't get Newsweek magazine."

  • @mark224 Way to go reinforcing the stereotype of arrogant, disrespectful and overly patriotic (nationalist?) Americans.

    I haven't counted all the Americans teaching at Finnish universities, but so far I've had at least eight Americans teach me at university. Still, I'm not sure how this is relevant as there is that little language barrier that might make teaching in Finland difficult for some Americans.

    BTW. Fjords are a Norwegian thing, not Finnish.

  • Continue..

    And I don't think that it have any matters if Finland is indepent in 1917 and america in 1776. I'm very proud that I am born in Finland and only this country is the best country in the world!

  • Education in Finland is the best in the world. Universities don't cost anything. Americans think that they know everything about everything. Well, most of the people don't even know where the Europe is or what it even is. Or where Finland is. Finnish people learn at school where is USA, China, Brazil, Australia and the other countries of the world. I have been studying english seven years now (I'm 15) and I have basic skills what I need when travel.

  • Brilliant. I LOVE Dennis. No surprise Newsweek chooses big government nations.

  • @mark224 Well, lets see here. In finland universities dont cost anything. yeah i know shocking isnt it? How much does it cost in USA shitloads of money. In Finland even the poorest peoples can go to universities, its not the same in USA. In america you have diffrent culture on universities what we can't compare. America has good universities im not denying it, but getting there aint so easy.

  • Karl's brother, stupid. Brother. Singular. Not brothers. Why don't you read before you type. What university did you graduate from? You're so quick to call me an idiot and tell me to go back to school. I'm curious how many American professors live and teach in Finland as opposed to Finnish professors teaching here. Could it be that our Universities are far superior? That can't be because you told me earlier that the Finnish educational system is better than the U.S.. So which is it?

  • @mark224 Reason why I call americans rednecks all the time is because its true. I almost once called an american a human but then i quickly removed my comment and changed it to "sub-human". Seriously, dont be butthurt if your country sucks and our country is choosed to be best.

  • @mark224 I have no need to educate you on finland. You are seriously one annoying americunt. Im educating you on "why america sucks". Dumb fucker go back to school. Finland rules, america sucks.

  • Karl's brothers, who the fuck are they? Yeah I can look you producing drugs, dumb children, guns, poverty, ghettos, shitty towns. country that nobody cares, reason why people dont care about finland in usa is because finland is so small country yet, rich and educated that you americunts dont know where is it cause lack of your geological education. Im not delusional, I know that everything isnt okay in our country, but you sir a dumb ass for thinking that USA is actually a good country.
