America: Land of Ignorance and Arrogance

Lately, over the past few years, I've noticed something about Americans: they tend to believe whatever their political party feeds them and ignore anything else. Plus, they're so caught up in their politics that even the words recount automatically translate to thier ears as "an obvious attempt to steal the election." What I say to that is: if you truly won and have nothing to hide, why is the idea of a recount such an anathema?
The arrogance and the ignorance of the average American is horribly ubsurd to me. Think about it: if just about every other country on the planet can see what a bad leader Bush is, why do you still support him? It's absurd and ridiculous.

Oh don't be pointing fingers too much.

Sure we have our share but other countries have their share as well.

Oh and for you all powerful knowledge; 58 million people didn't vote for him..... ;)

I know that; I'm an American myself and one of those who supported Kerry. :D

More, OVER 44% of everyone able to vote didn't vote - quite possibly because they thought both candidates were bad news.
