Only in the United States, if you travel to a foreign country and tell them you're from America, they would ask something like north or south, or from where in the Americas you're from. However, I realize that we are not in a foreign country, or at least, most of us.
I used to make these points, but found out the exact opposite is true.

No matter what Obama does, he just gets beat down by all the racist white people.Many white Americans don't like angry black men.
White people are so racist!
Without Sarcasm: Another racist article by CNN trying to point out how racist white people are. I'm a little tired of the double standard. Maybe people just don't like the President of the US being unprofessional. Maybe we aren't a bunch of racist hicks. Just a possibility.

Personally, I don't give a crap what the racists think, he's been way to passive.
If I was president, the oil spill among other things, I'd have shunted BP's ass out of the way, fixed the problem as quickly as possible, and bankrupt them making them pay for everything.

It's not about the racists. Those are such a small section of the population they aren't worth mentioning. I'm sick of the media pointing them out everytime someone disagrees with Obama.
Don't like Obama's taxes? You are racist. Don't like Obama's platform? You are racist. Don't like Obama cussing? You are racist. Don't like Obama's taking over of banks? You are racist. Don't like Obama's stance on Afghanistan? You are racist.
It's just old is all. I'm sick of being racist everytime I disagree with Obama for reasons that have nothing to do with racism. Ok... seriously.

I also think it's ridiculous. It @#$%ed me off to be told I "hated America" and/or I "hated our troops" by disagreeing with G.W. for any reason -- especially considering I was
in
the military for 6 of his 8 years.

You know that would be illegal, right? And that the US Government really doesn't have the expertise to fix it anyway?

Richard Engle reporting from Afghanistan Combat
I thought this was pretty powerful, Afghanistan is not in the news as often recently... if it's not worth being the top news story anymore, is it still worth fighting a war over, and losing sons, daughters, friends, spouses over? I don't wanna turn any discussion about the video into a political argument, so I won't say anything else that might do that. It's worth watching though... sad situation, through and through.

Britain Shocked Hacking Slain Girl's Phone
: alright, I get the power of the First Amendment and whatever exist over the pond...but seriously, how are the ones who did that not being brought up on charges of interfering with an investigation? Not to mention what those sick f-ers did to the poor girl's family by hacking and deleting messages hoping that more would appear, so it looked like she was still alive to the family.
I don't know, I really think reporters like that should start being held accountable for what they do: from the paparazzi harassing and chasing celebs(and ending up causing injuries or death) but not getting into any trouble for it...and in fact, if you hit the reporter that is hounding you, he can charge you for assault; da hell kind of world do we live in where &*!@ like that happens?

News of the World aren't getting away with that though, not this time anyway.
Consider this. Most of the money they make comes from advertising. 19 companies have withdrawn advertising rights within 3 days of the story appearing, including Ford, Vauxhall, Halifax and other huge names.
So financially, they loose.
Cameron wants an investigation into the NOTW and the Police, with probable court actions. So they loose there as well.
Cleggy wants the head of that Rebecca girl, one of the bosses. So she'll be like, the 'face of justice', so to speak, the example.
And obviously NOTW remaining rep gets gutted. So it hasn't been a great story for them, honestly.

Interesting story...but holy crap, the bias......jesu christo on a hot tin roof; so even though what has happened before with married couples of a male and female, it's obvious that this child's problem stems from being raised by lesbians....so will it be the fault of a gay male couple if their adopted daughter has the same condition and identifies herself as a male?
