America's* Literacy rate (link[^]): 99% Spain's literacy rate (link[^]): 97.9% so Spain is about twice as illiterate as the United States. Not only that, but they elected communists in order to appease Al Qaeda. What a bunch of wussies. *Note that this figure has been adjusted to only include the United States. Venezuela was not counted. -- modified at 9:10 Thursday 22nd June, 2006

Spain is not Europe, and Europe is not Spain you twit.

Saying that America is smarter than Spain doesn't highlight something positive about the US? Hmmmmm...Must be my "red-necked pig-ignorance" showing through.

But Spain is in Europe, so if more Spaniards could actually read, it would increase Europe's literacy rate.

Spanish men also don't know how to please a woman. The average woman in the US has 2.09 children and in Spain they only have 1.28. Perhaps that chauvinism is masking something deeper.

Had you really wanted to convey something positive about the US, you would've said that the US is twice as literate as Spain, and you wouldn't have called them commies and wussies. What made you jump on Spain like that? Did you get turned down by a hot spanish girl? Did she call you fat, ugly, bald american bastard?

But by illustrating the commie and wussy nature of Spain, I am only intending to positively illustrate the brave and democratic nature of the US through contrast.

I honestly think that it may have been my "red-necked pig-ignorance" shining through.

But by the soame token, you lot should be lumped in with Canada (a bonus) and all the south american countries (not so much) - well you're all in the Americas aren't you....wonder what THAT would do to the literacy figures :) "Now I guess I'll sit back and watch people misinterpret what I just said......"

No, it means that American women are just 38.7% more eager to reproduce with American men than Spanish women are eager to reproduce with Spanish men. Clearly it's due to our ability to please.
