[quote=donaldduckmoore]Not trying to say that how important it is for others to view us as an american, but during Bush’s tenure, I feel that american people are not liked and I feel like an idiot because we picked him. Nothing humiliating, just my opinion!
[/quote]I disagree. I had reapeatedly good experiences with Europeans in Europe. The most obvious example was the two german guys who asked if they could buy us a beer, cause we were Americans. We spent the next two hours BSing and learning form each other while buying each other rounds. Then all 4 of us started hanging out with the girls at the next table over.
Or the time we were sitting in a bar in greece and the biggest Irish MOFO walked up and asked if we were drinkin tonight. Shaved head, trees for arms, a look that said he felt a bar fight was a good night. Turns out he wanted to drink with us, him, his buddy, and the 7 british girls with him. Next night it was Canadians/ ausies, then Swedees, and finally Norwegians. Turns out this Irish guy worked in Greece and we drank every day together. We drank the guy under the table (ahhhh 23 and a frat boy……) Anyways all three of us have a job in Greece if we ever want it. One of us has already taken him up on it.The point is Europeans are amazingly able to seperate Americans from our political leadership. Everyone I have ever met likes Americans, even if they hate Bush’s policies.
(Can I also say that there is nothing funnier than teaching girls to two step to trance music in a greek port at 4am after drinking an irish man under the table. I still cant believe I didnt end up in the water.)
