BERLIN (AP) — The world was riveted by the election drama unfolding Tuesday in the United States, inspired by Barack Obama or simply relieved that — whoever wins — the Bush administration was coming to an end.

Ok...if arrogance means “willingness to defend you” then don’t call us next time you morons manage to kick off a world war...OK?

Headline from America:

America hopes that world would quit butting in on America’s internal elections. When the world comes up with new Stalin/Hitler/Bonoparte, please contact us then. Until such time, please leave America alone!!

I read this article today and immediately was infuriated. The whole world wants to see our demise. I can’t wait to see what world opinion will be when US funds to them are cut off to pay for income tax credits and other freebies here...and when they are left to their own devices when the Messiah guts our military and allows terrorists free reign.
It’s just sickening.

My Dad and two uncles helped save the world's a$$ in WW II and Korea. If that's the attitude of the world....don't ask us to do it again. This generation sure won't.

“Arrogance” means “existing and being more successful than us”.

Just like “theocratic” means “existing and trying to live a Godly life”.

I’m hoping for a more Arrogant America: you lot have much to be proud of, very little to be ashamed of, and plenty of good reasons to strut your stuff.

And I think you ought to deport all of your apologists. I dunno, maybe to Gitmo or Somalia or somewhere like that.

America wishes for a world where governments can take care of the citizens of their OWN COUNTRY and stop begging for our ‘ARROGANT’ money! If we are so bad, send back the billions we send out in aid$$$$$$. Make your own money, take care of your own people and don’t call us for help when you need a little military muscle! You got thugs taking over your government? Pi$$ off! Take care of it your own damn self and with your own money! I’m tired of American blood being spilled for thankless jack-offs worldwide.

America has been under appreciated in the world wayyyyy too long!!!

Well, if “the world” wishws us to be hesitant and uncertain in dealing with a global crisis- just come out and say so.

Usually they are screaming for the US to go fix the crisis asap. Save all the tsunami survivors in first 24 hours. Stop a nuke standoff between India and Pakistan.

If zero becomes the leader of the free world, they will see what it is like ot have a vacuum where the USA used to exist. For Europe and the UN, it will be like calling 911 and getting an answering machine.

If it’s LESS arrogance they’re looking for, they better hope Obama doesn’t win this thing. I have never in my life seen such an egotistical, arrogant politician.

The reason the world thinks we’re arrogant is because we take pride (lots of us do) in who we are and what we stand for. Most other nations can’t do that because they’re spinless socialistic spitholes.

What they really want is what all commies want. To bring everything/everyone (except the few “in charge”) DOWN to the base level....because that’s FAIR. ((((Projectile Vomit!)))

As opposed to, for example, a more arrogant Russia, China, Iran, Venezuela and/or North Korea? Gee, if I was in Europe I'd be rooting full bore for a more "arrogant" America.

As for those rooting for Obama - here's some sentiment from South Texas: go to Hell.
