Clearly I deserve to die like an orphaned Arab child who may well grow up to become a terrorist or maybe look like one.SaintAndrew said:
Several posters here have obviously taken on the George W. Bush style of debating. The "either you are with us or you love the terrorists" stance is quickly converted to "either you love Lance & everything he stands for or else you hate America and its freedom".

Define irony...
The most xenophobic person on this forum starts a thread about French xenophobia...
Question to the sociology "expert" that started this thread:
The fact that the "Teletubbies" theme song was no 1 in the UK for 2 weeks implies what exactly about the English?

The song is funny. I have no problem with it.
On the subject of "anti-Americanism", I think you have to give some people a pass for assuming attacks on Landis/Armstrong are based on a level of anti-Americanism. The reason is that some of the posters on this forum have often criticised/insulted those riders on the basis of their American citizenship. WBT is one of the posters who regularly makes an effort to draw lines between Americans and the rest of the world:
Rarely will you hear the names of other riders mentioned in relation to their nationality, and when they are, it is usually in a positive light, as it should be. This does not apply to Americans, apparently. When an American rider is mentioned, particularly a successful one, the comments are often peppered with anti-American stereotypes. If you want your criticism of riders to be taken objectively, then they should be offered neutrally.

lives in Wales (NSW is a state of Australia) and speaks 8 languages.... which is 8 more than most Americans...

That's a small sample of WBT's rhetoric -- took me about 2 minutes to compile it. What is someone to think after reading it -- he loves to insult Americans and exclusively stereotype them as opposed to any of the other 200 countries in the world, so it's fair game to presume that his criticism of American riders is tainted.

Wow, besides the extensive PED debate and the occasional mention of cycling, let's open up the issue of the extent to which Nazism has deep roots in German culture vs. being a separate movement! The intellectual level of this forum keeps getting deeper and deeper...poulidor said:
Just what we need to brighten our days in this PED cycling world, the debate on German responsibility for WW2...
Don't be pedantic. Every French occupier was German, but not all of them were Nazis.poulidor said:
Although many Americans are not members of the party that controls the executive and legislative branches , the war in Iraq is described as an American war, not a Republican war.

I'll post just to remind people that "anti-Americanism" is not only a bad reason to believe that Landis/Armstrong are dopers, it's not a unique one. I'm American. Born and bred. And I think they're both giant dopers. Along with ninety percent of the peloton.
"attacks on Landis/Armstrong" -- it's the Landis / Armstrong doping and denial that there is a problem that is an attack on the sport. In one American's opinion.
Thats actually funny guys.jhuskey said:
And thanks for the award for the stupidest post.
I'm all choked up. Cant express what it means, I never won anything before.
But hopefully the posts will get better now that the mother-in-law has left.
I know, cheap shot at mothers-in-law, but I had to blame someone.
