There have got to be thousands and thousands of greater Americans who almost nobody has ever heard of. It's obvious that anybody who wanted to could vote on that.
it really says something about a country when the "greatest" person in that country is a murderous lying bastard who nuts at the sight of poor starving people.
Those American bastards! They stole our idea and completely bastardized it! Y'see, a couple o' months ago, the CBC posted a month long program called "The Greatest Canadian". Those bastards took our idea! Furthermore, why the hell isn't Abe Lincoln, Dr. Martin Luther King, or JFK on the list?! Grr...
Reagan did A LOT!!! I mean the man declared that ketchup was not a condiment, but in fact a vegetable.... I mean, I was confused about for the longest time...
What the fuck?! First he takes over the damn TV for a week, and then he plagues us forever by becoming the "best american". No president should win that award.
That's what I was thinking. There are plenty of great Americans,but no one knows them. No one knows them because they aren't related to Hollywood or Washington D.C.
ahem...CBC took it from "Greatest Britons" which was a BBC program... today on CBC Newsworld, they played the hour long advocative thingeres for Tommy Douglas, Terry Fox, and Trudeau [in that order cause its #1, 2, 3]...i cant believe i sat through George Strombolopolous [yes we have a guy with that sort of name too, cept he is a former much music VJ] for an hour ...geez,as much as i like Douglas, i dislike that guy
if anybody decent ever wins on one of those shows then they will have automatically become a scumbag.
so who was the greatest Briton? thatcher per chance? Regan? give me f*@kin break and arnold scharzenegger is austrian isn't he?
