Listen mate, there are MANY americans who hate war(close to half of the country). Im a democrat myself and hated Bush and his stupid policies. I hope Barak will be able to turn things around. Regarding Phelps, Im a swimmer myself and he's still my idol, he's human man, he made a mistake, it's not the end of the world. He smoked pot in a party, give him a break, he's never been tested positive for performance enhancing drugs so what's the deal?. Nobody's perfect.

[juandi2570]

fuck off asshole, this is not a political discussion? Why do you hate america so bad? I like Great Britain a lot and don't understand what your problem is. Michael is a phenomenal swimmer and the discussion should be around Phelps. Who cares about wars?

@juandi2570 So how are you a democrat if Obama is engaging in an illegal war? Only a moron like you would assume that conservatives don't hate war. We hate war: but we're not delusional morons who can't understand that they're necessary.

@smiljanicn what about the US is shitty?? if you have such an "excellent knowledge of English", what's with some of your mistakes? (i saw 2 of them... could've missed some) you want us to go back to out factory jobs, fine. but don't look to us when you need some political or military help & you have nowhere else to look

@james9025 wow, sure am glad great Britian came and bailed us out during world war 2...that hitler was a menace crossing the southern border from mexico..forcing our troops to flee using old chevy's and large borderito burritos...ole.

Thanks mate. 

[cmoursler3]

@smiljanicn lol, okay okay okay...you have us pegged.

We will go back to our fucking factory job, and stop acting like a "looser". I have admitted to myself that i live in a shity nation....Seeing as how your so brilliant and all, could you please tell me what a shity nation is, and secondly, where do I go to stand in line to get to eastern europe. I hear the breadlines are fine this time of year.

Why you guys bragging about your degree, better lives then others, more fortunate then other, better in many ways then others, all and all it is all comments. means: no proof what so ever, so if you are angry for some reason, pls channel your anger somewhere else. And those who keeps fueling the anger, GROW-UP! Look around U and be more sensitive! There are too many things in live that more important than hate - these NEGATIVES will eat you soon or later. There, I've said it...

What a worthless degree. THE ENTIRE WORLD HAS BEEN DISCOVERED DUMBASS, THIS ISN'T 1492.

Obviously if you got a masters degree in geology and don't like it, then you're failing yourself.

Quit making generalizations about Americans. Where are you from? Russia? Alright. Compare the economies of Russia and the US and see who's "winning" and who's "failing".

By the way, either spell correctly or stop bragging about your fluent English. It sucks asshole.

smiljanicn - It appears that your grasp of the English language is limited to obscenities (you might have to look that word up in the dictionary). I'm not in to bashing entire nations, which appears to be a hobby of yours. I genuinely hope your country is doing well; however, you're certainly not the ambassador of joy. Sorry, but you still sound like a hateful moron. You seem to be unhappy with your sad life. Here's a news bulletin: you are the loser :)
