Then you don't know much at all about how the US housing debacle and the far reaching tentacles of bad debt for European investors.
Bush policies were pushing for eternal war in the ME, not just oil and other resources.
Interesting that the USD is not the only currency that oil is being traded in these days.
No, I exactly know how hard European Investors were hit by the american housing debacle. Not just European Investors were hit bad by it, Investors all over the world were. But that happens, bubbles eventually burst. That's the economic cycle. But to blame it all on bad bully america is very silly (That is coming from an European). And yes the ME is a toy of the west for the last 50 years. We take their ressources. You know why? Because we can. Iran is already talking about trading oil for a basket of currencies. That won't serve them well. You can already hear the war propaganda in the U.S. media.

I don't know how there religious freedom is doing. I live in Europe. You tell me.
In terms of the economy i only can say i got higher returns in 2011, investing in corporations of the S&P 500 than in corporations of the Eurostoxx.
Actually Obama sat in a Black Liberation Theology Church for 20 years which has everything to do about race and not religion. Many people don't even know what Black Liberation Theology is!
I have been going to churches for over thirty years, and have been called an "atheist" by the greatest of evangelicals.
Just watch the liberal media, as that will tell you enough about socialist president.Why did his family hate the USA? Why did he friend REV Wright?
Why does he need to read of a teleprompter??? Word out is that he had a D's in college...
Run, Organic, run!!!!!!
pssst, I hears that he's actually from Nigeria, you know, that country tha's right next door to Indonesia, and that he's a Christian Muslim. Oh, and I also that he's watching this thread and some folks are bound for a FEMA camp. It's in Roswell New Mexico right where that UFO crashed.
What can I say, I woke up rather cynical (in a humorous way) after enjoying a brilliant Christmas? It's probably just a rich food hangover mixed with the realization that EVERY EX-CHARGER (still playing) have made the playoffs.
So why are Americans dissing Europe? After all that is where white american's ancestors come from. Maybe it is because a lot of those immigrants where religiously and economically oppressed in their home countries. They were simply looking for a better life. Some may still holding a grudge because of that.
I think it's a combination of reasons. A similar condition exists among Argentines but not as nasty. In some instances it is a problem created by the intellectual class of Europe. In some case with regard to the US it is a gut reaction to our recent loss of clout. I am sure there are many who can point out the reasons. Some reasons are justifiable and others not but the nasty snide reactions that travel back and forth across the Atlantic truly show that both sides of the Atlantic have low class people who cannot do more than offer outright insults and most are just stupid insults. Some folks will do or say anything to make themselves feel good..
