puffinge: So what does the rest of the world really think of the United States right now?

TheGrimReeple: It's interesting to look back at the answers to this and how they have (and haven't) changed over the years.
Woelf: Most of them weren't so happy with how things were being run the last 4 years, but moods have improved in the past couple months.
ocdspectrum: It’s the fall of the US empire.
Volstag: I'm America and I think we're a global joke.
KillerPower: You probably don't wanna know....
zd00: Haters gonna hate.
Phil Fleischmann: Who cares?
Cringing Dragon: We try not to think of it at all.
Felimid: Probably wondering why we Americans could elect such ridiculously stupid governments (and why it took us so long to elect someone like Barack Obama).
The Unbeliever: 42
Polgara: you started the crisis?
seminole: it shouldn't be a police state

RatDog: I'm not sure it's in my best interest to answer that.
gmcash: i think in general we are either hated or feared by most other countries
amadan: i might offend some statesmen.
Gamegrunt: Don't really care.
LilRed: The United States is the new Soviet Union, most of it seems okay on the outside but when you go deeper into it, it's a big mess. A big hoax.

woonklepuff: The same thing they've always thought
PlaneGuy: "Here we go again...."
Leo-T: they shake their head and laugh
MaksimSmelchak: Obnoxious question. Please ask more questions about gaming.

Shade006: We absolutely ROCK!!!
lone: Do you really want to know?
SgtTodd: A nation of rednecks, run by a redneck.
Helenoftroy: pretty much what they've always thought

Chris Page: "It'd be a nice idea?"
Chemik: Intimidated no matter in what form it comes out, hatred, fear...whatever.

skrutsch: You'd have to ask the rest of the world. (Oh, I guess you did.)
Nem Menuu: Poorly.
Gecko23: Does it matter?

Belash: their end is near
Lord_Prussian: Depends on who you ask
Ivan: I think most don't like Mr. Bush at all or the foreign policies your government pursue. We don't appreciate the inward self-serving policies on global warming much either.

heli: not kindly
dakarp: Heck, I'm in the United States, and I don't like us very much--I shudder to imagine what everyone else thinks.

darthcliff: Probably about the same as they think of boiled turnips or Richard Nixon.
sumo: I think Blackwind sums it up nicely.
gnomehome: I couldn't speak for the rest of the world...
UhhhClem: Asking BGG users is probably not going to get you as good an answer as, say, reading some of the London papers will.
puffinge: I am interested to hear what geeks outside the USA have to say.
kostas: Most inteligent non US citizens, should like everyone living here in the US hate/dont trust the government (democrats or republicans). I wouldnt blame them a bit. But they should love this Country, and its People. USA! USA! USA! Then again if they hate the people in our country, they can burn in hell as we crush there culture with MTV and McDonalds Hahaha.
jttm: Uhhh... yeah...
AlorielLelyn: I think they think we are a bunch of arrogant fools being led by a mad man. And they are probably right.

Blackwind: who cares? I don't.
chaddyboy_2000: I have no idea, and I don't really care.
batman: That we're a bunch of war mongering, egotistical, a-holes. I can't say we didn't earn it.
