You know, there have been Brits who say Americans don't speak English. They say that they can't understand what they are saying.

...there have been Brits who say Americans don't speak English...

I believe that.

There are many Americans that I can't understand, and I'm not just speaking of the utterly ridiculous and contrived black ebonics. Of course this asinine rap and hip-hop garbage hasn't helped one bit.

Some Americans speak English so poorly that one knows it's proof that today's grammar school education is bent on a more sinister agenda.

It's actually a little embarrassing. In Northumberland, just below the Scottish border, there are people there called Geordies. They are speaking English, but for the life of me I can't understand what they are saying.

Best example I can give you of what it was like is Brad Pitt's jabber in the movie Snatch.
