Naam Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 This post has a anti american tone in that it assumes americans are dumb - they are not! They are the saviours of the planet.God bless america PS just because they elected a president (twice) with an IQ of 91 doesnt mean they are dumb. They need him to smoke out the guy who tried to kill his daddy! from where did he suddenly get the additional 20 points? did he smoke but not inhale?

mrtoad Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 (edited) So there is at least 3 brits on this potentially american bashing thread and not one of us has said anything bad about them. We must be the nice ones Give it time, give it time. See post 61 - Re: George W Bush. Looks like this one is now a hot topic on Thai Visa.

pointofview Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 (edited) It does show the ignorance of a lot of people, if this is what they believe., but all countries have some very insular peolple who have no idea what is going on outside of their own town, let alone their own country. That is so true Toady - but let us not be so defensive of our fellow americans. I think the well ajusted ones will see the humour and the truth! POV, I'm British. So am i old bean! Fellow americans, fellow thais, fellow citizens of the world So there is at least 3 brits on this potentially american bashing thread and not one of us has said anything bad about them. We must be the nice ones I think the british have developed an immunity to verbal bashing. Our wit and charm act as an integral defence mechanism. Our sense of humour together with impecable decorum are the envy of english speakers throughout the free world.

mrtoad Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Let's get back to the original question from the OP. So, why do Americans think that Thai children ride elephants to school, and where are the buffaloes in Bangkok? I'd like to hear the OP's view.
