Australia.
i'm not at all keen on our current government.
in particular, i'm concerned with Australia's direction in its foreign affairs.
in the massive attempt to strengthen the support of the US, i feel that we've once again isolated ourselves in our own region.
i can't remember too much 'Yank-bashing' going on around here. but i do remember quite a bit of heat being directed at 'old europe', esp France, for their opposition to the recent war. however, i don't feel any of this was truly offensive.
imo, the reason why American politics is so often discussed here is because, lets face it, American politics is something EVERYONE sees.
by this i mean that we are shown a lot of American media and politics. but i'm fairly certain that Americans are not shown ANY Australian politics.
in fact, Australia was even left out of your list in your initial post, crewsor.
