Believe me, the writers strike will do more to improve Americas image abroad than anything our butt kissing State Department could do.

Hollywood is directly involved and is the number one culprit in the red hot hatred that people around the world have for the United States.

It is funny and sad but the Hollywood crowd loves to spew hatred for the conservatives, military and Christianity yet it is those very rock solid patriotic folks that guarantee Hollywood's right to make their vile American hating and causing movies.

Hollywood has done more to put you and me and our families in harms way than any other entity known to the civilized world and that includes folks like Almanutjob of Iran.

So I say let the strike go on forever as our position in the world starts to mend.

A) American pop culture is — for better or worse — envied, imitated and admired around the world.

B) Movies are no longer a product made just for Americans. Many, many films earn more on foreign rights than in the U.S.

Hmm... last I checked, American films make millions upon millions of dollars in foreign markets. Our movie stars are household names overseas. Sure, they may say that our entertainment pollutes their cultures but their euros, rubles, rupees and dinars speak otherwise.
