America Smarter than Spain [modified]
-
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.

We don't recognize the Oxford Dictionary in Amuuuurica! RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
Should'nt that be Oxfurd? "You get that which you tolerate"

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

We're not part of a unified economic and political unit like the EU.

Ha ha. Yeah so free. You cant drink alcohol in parks and on beaches. You cant smoke dope legally. You cant buy drink in a mac donalds. Your women cant go topless on any beach they want. You have 11 holidays a year, as opposed to 22 here, plus a couple of weeks if your wife gives birth. We have free health care, and it is good. We can drive at 85 mph in France, unlimited in a lot of germany. Free? You dont know the meaning of free. Nunc est bibendum

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

We have the freedom to allow all that if we wished. However, not being a civilization in decline, we choose not to.

This is such crap. In all these stats, like US per capita GDP, the 10 million or so illegal imigrants are not considered. Nunc est bibendum

They're not Americans. The 10 million or so illegal immigrants from the Middle East aren't counted in Spain either.

OK, I'll spell it out for you. child birth rate != frequency or quality of sex In fact, having kids gets in the way of sex for pleasure. Nunc est bibendum
Actually in a separate poll (which I don't have handy), the US actually lead the world in an international poll for both quality and quantity of sex. So I guess your assumptions are wrong.

You must be an arrogant asshole to tell that to an American, being from the UK yourself. In the UK you have "knife amnesites", and will put anyone in jail for 4 years for having a pocket knife. In the UK your police arrest young children of making "racist" remarks. The police in the UK can do pretty much whatever they like if they label someone a "terrorist". Wheras Americans have the right to free speech, the right to be armed (which i am), the right against unreasonable searches and confiscations by the police (but the police do violate this one sometimes). Freedom means more than petty little things like speed limits and holidays. Stand rigid for the next battle Peace means reloading your guns The love for life is all hatred in disguise - Dimmu Borgir

Well, I suppose some people have standards so low they are easially satisfied. Nunc est bibendum
American women also came out on top as the most beautiful in the world.

Judging by the rate all the crazy evangelicals are growing, you'll soon be as civilized as any other theocracy. And you know what? Catholics are looked down upon by them. You're catholic, right? I seem to vaguely remember that you admitted to that. Some of the evangelicals will so far as to say that the pope is antichrist. Good luck being... civilized. :)
