Three good americans, three bad ones.

The Good







The Bad

"MIA". I like that. But it may be even more fitting if you were.

Oooh. Zinged by Tyneside's self-proclaimed literary genius, who ends his sentences in prepositions, mind you a Geordi who can string even a badly formed sentence is probably still a "genius" by Northern standards.

Correct. Though you can take out the literary, and the same applies.

Joking aside, I never self-proclaim anything; I am as little on this Earth as you are.

Your Geordie Genius,
Mick

Who do you consider the good and the bad in your country?


DS

When M.M. makes a "good" list, it only proves how chaotic our socio-political standards have become, imho. But I'm not really surprised.

And, with Moore and Bush already taking slots up, it begs the question, who would comprise "Ugly"?

Definitely Al Sharpton! Heard he may get a reverse-Archie Bunker type sitcom soon. God help us all!

BTW, Condy is sexy, man! How does she fit "bad" (unless you mean "bad" as in "hot")?

Dr.

As a member of the older generation, I'm not hip on who number 1 and 2 are. Good and Bad are very subjective terms. It depends on what criteria they are being evaluated. 1,2,3, are not very well groomed, so I could say they are Bad.

I'll tell you who the good Americans are... they are the ones who get up every day and without makking a stink about it go about their business as teachers, nurses, sanitation people, firemen, cops (for the most part) social workers, military grunts, and physical laborers, all of whom are grossly underpaid, and without whom we would not survive.

Candidly, I am not impressed by blow hards on the right or the left who make millions of dollars a year to pontificate about their "points of view" whether they be Bill ORielly or Barbra Streisand.

Hey, you forgot Dean and Hillary on your bad list.


Dontomasso said it right.


DS

Tomasso did forget, however, that good Americans also consist of the tramps and homeless people who get up early every day because, well, because shops open early, I guess, and they have to be out of the doorway so as to let the shoppers in.

Michael Moore is a man who makes money off of his lies and half-truths.

I heard a while back that despite his anti-war stance, he has stocks in with the oil there. Also, when interviewed he does it in a second-rented, average looking motel before he returns to his more luxurious one.

Ashton Kutcher, I simply hate his acting, and all of the shitty movies he's in.

Whew!

I thought I was the only one, and I was too embarrassed to say so.

I looked at the "properties" for the second photo and learned that it was Ashton Kutcher, but I'm stil clueless on number one.

The first pic is of Billy Joe Armstrong, who is the lead singer of the band Green Day.

DS and I agreeing on something???? STOP THE PRESSES

Isn't that Goebbels? Or that guy who directed "Saddam Hussein or How I learned to stop worrying about how Iraqis live and love him"?

I don't think I agree so much with your "Good"... but you forgot the Ugly:



Because putting your constitutional freedom of speech to use is... un-American?

And he's wearing eyeliner. Is that cool again? I didn't know.

Fair question.

Three good Brits:


Damon Albarn


"Gorgeous" George Galloway, scourge of the Senate select committee

Andrew "Freddie" Flintoff, hero of the Ashes

Three bad Brits


Bush's poodle

Annoying coont #1

Annoying coont #2

#1, again with the eyeliner.

I don't know who most of those are... I only know Tony Blair and George Galloway. Maybe we need captions?

It's cool if you're a punk rocker -- or dress like one.

For Halloween... wait, who are we talking about again?

Btw, thanks for your very helpful captions, Doc. :rolleyes: :p

Billie Joe is like the coolest person ever, all you squares who don't understand him should stop oppressing him with your negativity, picking on his makeup is so trivial and oppresive. He is a national treasure and one of the few musical artisic exports Americans can be very proud of.

No...we've got Lindsey Lohan, too.

Three Good Dutchies:

Freddy Heineken

Johan Cruyff

Marco Van Basten

Two Bad Dutchies:

Klaas "De Dominee" / "Lange Frans" Bruinsma

ELR you forgot the dutch master

Damn right!

You forgot Pim Fortuyn.

I agree Green Day is one of the better bands of the past ten years, especially with "Dookie" and "American Idiot," but one of the few America can be proud of? I disagree.
