Europe sucks, even our liberal mainstream media can't find anything positive to report about it.

Does The US Media Ever Report Positives About Europe?
Nope.
They have read all your posts whining about America and are making it personal.

not real sure if you have been watching the U. S. Media lately but it seldom reports anything postive about the U. S.


They would argue that is the point. Good news is not news.

Does the US media ever report anything that is going well in Europe?
Excellent question. The reason they don't are the same reasons that they don't investigate the reasons we went to war in Iraq, like a Bernie Madoff scheme it may accidentally reveal the rot within, in this case predatory capitalism.

Who could blame them? (Thinking people only)

I am always willing to give my insight especially on Germany but the average Joe from the US who has never visited another US state rather beliefs his own ignorant picture that he has about Europe.
