We’ve known just what they’re like for a long time […], we’ve all been there at least once — on vacation, of course. Be it in California or Florida (that’s where you get the best deals on rental cars, you know), we can see right through the Americans. For us Germans, the Americans are either too fat or too obsessed with exercise, too prudish or too pornographic, too religious or too nihilistic. In terms of history and foreign policy, the Americans have either been too isolationist or too imperialistic. They simply go ahead and invade foreign countries (something we Germans, of course, would never do) and then abandon them, the way they did in Vietnam and will soon do in Iraq.
