What a shame it's basically America's point of view. :P

I thought it was entertaining, particularly the part about Russia and Georgia. And I don't know how much it was from "America's point of view", except that a lot of the happenings he talked about happened in America. But it wasn't really opinionated enough to be a "shame" because of it.

In my opinion it was, and I find that most things that have been Americanised are usually ruined or unfair. Of course this is because they are the self proclaimed Superpower maybe ?

Heheheh no idea. Seriously though, America needs to get its head out of its ass and start helping the people, as opposed to the government.

America really makes me laugh... I'm not a fan of the country and am probably biased but.. This Honduras incident for example, the President got put into exile or something, then AMERICA comes out and says that they don't recognise any other person as President of Honduras.. now, if I was Honduran, or whoever who was trying to take over, I wouldn't be bothered whatsoever if the USA said that. On the news it's always; "America doesn't recognise", "America recognises", "America will not support", "America will support" and on and on and on... I just think that as a nation it loves itself too much.

You guys seem to forget the curcial that the company who made that cartoon is American, whose audience is... you guessed it Americans. So to add some random event from like Nauru or Europe wouldn't really make sense in terms of viewership.

So of course their biased...

Well America is fairly big, and considering that there's that whole 'Monroe' Doctrine, that where America goes so goes Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia 'automatically' - there's few more important players in the Western Hemisphere. If you get America's 'okay' sign then you're in the green for life.

I watched them strap him into the seat and shut the door. He might of looked a bit nervous about it but that was about all. I really believe that he knew he was going to be in hell in fifteen minutes. I believe that. And I've thought about that a lot. He was not hard to talk to. Called me Sheriff. But I didn't know what to say to him. What do you say to a man that by his own admission he has no soul? Why would you say anything? I've thought about it a good deal.
