The funniest part is where the interviewer asks the people to stick a number on on Iran as the next country that should be invaded.

Iran has replaced Australia on the map and also has North Korea written beside it.

"Wow! I didn't know North Korea was that big"



They're breeding, people.

Yet another attempt to make the American people look stupid by catching teenagers, rednecks, uneducated laborers, and old women off-guard and asking them questions.

Why doesn't the producer do it all on one take? Probably because he had to interview ten people to get one to give the answers he wanted.

Also, notice how the same people pop up over and over again. It's an attempt by the producer to make it seem like there are more people giving those answers than there really are.

But, I guess if you want to believe crap like that, you're gonna believe it.

It's not about believing it. It's obviously true for those people interviewed. It's just not a good way to judge an entire country of 300 million by. It's not a very good sample size to say the least.

Rick Mercer did a similar thing years ago called "Talking with Americans". Bloody funny stuff.

Search it on youtube.
