Also the lack of proper public transport and concientization.

Are you dense? He just explained to you why public transport has not been developed as much. It's a huge continent. Gas was cheap and car production was a boon to the economy. Besides who wants to get boxed in like cattle on a smelly European street car or bus?

History / RUSSIAN TV ACCUSES POLAND OF BEING HITLER ALLY [30]

To make it look like the commies were on the good side.

???.. Of course, they more or less were. They didn't give up, did they? Your own country couldn't be bothered with the Nazis. You think Ireland would have been given some kind of free pass had the Nazis won??

hurling about the most far-fetched of allegations

How do you know they're far fetched? People on here that favor the illustration of Poland as some little white dove in forest are comical at best. Nobody is that innocent. Give it a damn rest for once.

History / WHO WILL REPRESENT THE USA AT WESTERPLATTE? [28]

Pearl harbour ring any bells?

And next time please show up on time :-)

Ahh? We were on time - to our war.. in the Pacific, where Pear Harbor is. I know I'm a Yank but I don't think it's near Europe.

I have another plan.. why not we all pass on "next time". Maybe the UK can play nice with the rest of the EU until I'm dead? I'm not English, Welsh or Scottish and don't really want to die for the Sceptered Isle. I don't think Canucks or Aussies do either.

You know its true !

What's true is Yankee blindly loves the British Isles and Ireland. Got us into 2 world wars, they could probably do it again. It's corny and pathetic but there ya' go.

USA, Canada / Polish/American food (they feed people in the US with toxins) [80]

There most certainly are, but % wise we have a long way to go to catch up with the USA, this is not an insult its a fact.

7% points Shel? Also, 200 million in the US are not obese - 3 x GB's population. It's a global problem, we're behind computers all day now for the most part.

China is stronger after the crisis.

..which the EU has to compete with, genius. A weak US economy is not necessarily good for the EU because the US buys a lot of German exports which in turn buy Polish / French / Spanish exports.. on and on. Lack of German orders will hurt job growth as well.

Which is like 2 battalions or so. Better to pull them in. You know.. out of harms way... Where they want to be. You don't have the political will, why chance it.

History / US snubs Poland over WW II ceremony? [75]

Visa-free travel would be a good start. If Poles are good enough to die for the USA, they're good enough to visit the USA.

Agree.. You're probably talking 2010 - 11, something like that.

Old girlfriend Magda just bought a house in Ft. Lauderdale, it's nicer than mine. She's not a citizen either. Somehow I doubt she would agree with your diatribe.

But the USA doesn't give anything in return.

As a lot of rich Poles (or their kids) live here we've given quite a lot over the years. For Iraq / Afghanistan? Poland gave us essentially 3 battalions.. In comparison we sent 23 into the Balkans alone.

How would you like to see Poland compensated for the 3 battalions? Oil deals can probably still be worked out with the Iraqis if that's what you want.

Noooooooooooooooo!

Yep pretzels.. you Wisconsin people have to contribute too. May as well tack on fried cheese too. C'mon man ..you don't want the Chinese owning Lake Michigan do ya?

Seriously, you put a nickel on everyone of those transactions it's lights out deficit.

I drank some home-made beer tonight that my nephew brewed.

Better man than me.. mine usually comes out like cow whiz.

The government is seeking for ways to generate revenue. Tax the burgers as much as the cigarettes, alcohol and gas. Don't' forget to tax the 32oz coke either!

Agree.. consumption tax is the way to go. I would say chips and pretzels you buy in the grocery store too until the deficit gets paid down.

News / Microsoft Poland whitens a black face in its advert [130]

I don't believe the majority of Polish people would have been offended by it.

They might have not have been offended .. but would they have bought the product? Just recently (since mid 90's) have Blacks been seen in American ads for high ticket items. That has changed as there is a decent sized Black middle class now. Market research probably has shown that Poles might not have bought an expensive product if it is associated with a black person. Is it right? No, but companies invest millions in advertising and they won't to hit the large demographic. And in Poland it sure as hell would not be Africans.

The Polish government sent troops because they though they were going to get oil and infastructure contracts, as funny as that sounds. Did they get any? Hell no.

Poland can broker with the Iraqis like anyone else. 40 billion a year in crude has been nationalized. Strike a deal with them. It's not that hard.

Just western Europe and the spheres of influence left over from the remnants of the Empires of Britain and France.

Actually when you send your citizens in to die on another's land there is always an element of altruism to it.

However you seem to assert that the US annexed Western Europe. Look, Europe decides to try and commit suicide and the US inherits it's markets.. it's kind of strange to blame the US for this, no? The central lesson here is to keep the EU together in the future because if it splinters you'll only be hurting yourself. Economically and leaving yourself vulnerable to outside forces. However as the European ego is on display here daily, it will be a surprise if it will be kept in check for decades to come.

The people did not want to send troops to Iraq but the gov. sent them anyway.

Lots and lots of Americans didn't want to go to WWII. They didn't really ask "what do we get out of it" though. What do you think Poland deserves for giving us 2500 troops? Please be specific, dollar amount etc. Poland's a member of NATO however if she would like to charge for services let the US know. Easy enough?

Which "they" are you talking about?
The people or their government, that does not listen to them anyway?

There were many polls on PFs and else where exclaiming that the Poles did not want the shield. Usually like 65 - 80% against the shield.

Looks like the constant attempts to insert the national tongue into the anus of the USA are paying off as well as usual!

You will probably get either Biden or Clinton. Obama should go though in my opinion.

Ya' know, it's 5 days away? Planes are pretty capable of getting there in plenty of time for the event.

3,000 yanks volunteered to fight fascism in the 1930s

The least we could do.. Spanish did all the leg work in exploring the US.

Dont worry Scrappy - I was being flippant.

No worries, man.

Some American subjects...

I'll have to dig up some European subjects... they'll likely have body odor steaming from them. Peeewwwww! Yeah we've got some fat people but damn at least they don't smell like an old sock all day. :- (

True, i have seen the biggest pigs in the USA, huge, enormously gelly-like anatomy, eating mc donalds and never getting out of their cars

Well, as I've pointed out to you Euros about 800 times on here: Approximately 30% of the population is obese. Yes it's disgusting, yes it's very embarrassing. However 30% of 290 million = 87 million, which means 203 million people ARE NOT OBESE. So, 5 x the population of Poland and more than double the population of Germany.. ARE NOT OBESE. Supposedly the British aren't that far behind us at about 23% of pop obesity. So I guess there are quite a few European fatties as well? Feel free to share the love around.

Plus Polish girls will keep their mediocre loser boyfriends as emotional safety nets ..

Well yeah, she finds it tough going to brow beat a man with self esteem. Strange and sad to find your jollies that way.
