Well for one thing I dont like is that everything in the weekly update section features mostly Taco-man! I think you should feature more Ebolaworld charcaters. I would like to see more Smokey and Grandpa!
What I like is its comic gold , The name is so good its bullet proof! It has quality animation. Each cartoon is well thought out!

I don't like the lack of updates. Everything else is good, though. 
Seriously, even if it's crap, you need something new on a regular and predictable basis.

The only thing that I hate about Ebolaworld is that Cat & Fish and the Scrums (or what ever they were called) are not on the site anymore.

Sorry Mr. Andkon, I'm not a robot. I wish I was because robots are cool. When I do update, It's usually every Monday. However, at the moment, I'm on hiatus till Halloween. After Halloween, I'll get back to updating reguarly again.

I like the satire mainly. It's things like Rush Limbaugh rolling into the newsroom "conservative ... rolling ... through!" and God saying "Goddamn hearing aid!" that really get me.
I also like all of the voices that you do, and your choice of music.
What I don't like are some things in the animation - it's very polished, but in places really unpolished at the same time. It's kinda hard to describe - for example, the drawings of the Bush gang are great, but some main characters like Taco-man look like you took a relatively rough sketch and then decided that you weren't going to refine it any more - it has a bit of a rushed look to it. Also, seeing characters from a different angle would be nice from time to time (this does take more work I realize, but once you've done it once you can then reuse those drawings in later flashes, right?)

He also talks too much about terrorisme.

@Zntrip: The Smurks were removed from the website due to legal problems with the copyright holders of The Smurfs. Cat and Fish was removed so it could be aired on television (and so far has been unsuccessful). Although, I have all three episodes of Cat and Fish, and two out of three episodes of The Smurks on my computer...

Hmm. I believe Sam (in a PDF easter egg) stated to a hatemailer that he labeled himself neither Liberal nor Conservative, he didn't care much for the title. That could've been Democrat/Republican, though, I'm not sure... I don't remember the URL. It's in one of the Anniversary specials.

Hi all
I think what Sam really appreciates, are constructive opinions and fair expressions.
First of, what I really like is the fact that Sam seems to be the the only American that is not believing in the huge 9/11 fake. Therefore Sam is more likely an individual who's far away being a stereo typical "Bible-Patriotic, we stand as one American".
Thus, his cartoons are greatly reflecting the problems, America and the world are facing (in a funny way of course). He tells the story not as a Liberal or whatsoever, he concilates facts and truth, mixed with genuine comedy.
The Pro's::
I would like to point out the huge fun factor and I love to be surprised. I never expected "Hannity and Colmes" to come out, which was outstanding. There were a few cartoons that jumped in the front page, and it was a great surprise effect. Unfortunetely I do not know the names of the cartoons, but some were a great surprise again.
Well, I can't say it enough, but the Bush Show is the main franchise of Ebolaworld- let's better say, it was..
Linda was hilarious too.
To make it short:
- Michael Jackson, you guys remade his voice! That was great entertainment.
- Ebolaworld, where the Scrums showed up (I really did not expect those little things), Tacoman read fan mails, I love those "intelligent" mails. I love them!!
- "Cat 'n Fish in guess who's gay". This is one of the most funniest phrase I ever heard in Ebolaworld. Or "Smokey, I finally have a new Episode"
-Linda, especially the gay agenda.
-Tacoman News Flash!!!
-Weekly Update, and special guests like Rush.
-Bunny Bunny!!
-Update 24, 2003 in Review with Bunny.
-Anniversary Episodes
-Great jokes and surprise factor
What I dislike::
The lack of updates. I don't care much for "Ask Tacoman". But the News Flash should be really updated for an intelectual and well visited website.
Taco-man, Snowman, and the big hype for Grandpa really get's into my balls. It's just nothing I could laugh about.
I hope there's gonna be another big surprise in the future.
------------------------
To my Dutch neighbor, hahaha that was a good one "our dikes don't break".
I mailed and suggested Sam to at least show Blair a little bit more, or add some new international faces like.... Chirac and so forth.
I agree, your minister, he is one of many damn gay arselickers who shove up their heads so deep in Bush's ass, among with a few other European peanuts..
Here a few international dorks.
Poland, we gave them Leopard tanks, Mig's, gave them everything what they wanted, EU entry etc. What do they do with their EU money?! They buy second hand US F16's, and participate in the illegal Iraq war. Screw them.
Berlusconi, the European version of Bush. Corrupt as a full blooded Italian Mafia.
Tony "The Bastard" Blair, the biggest areslicker of all.
And the list goes on.

I appreciate the comments and will take them into consideration, but I must admit Ebolaworld is made for me. Every cartoon is something I wanted to see.
Its unlikely Ebolaworld will make fun of other countries and their Governments, as I have no interest in doing so. There’s plenty of material right here in America.
Also, even thought I plan to turn up the volume on the political cartoons, non-political cartoons will still be made. Snowy the Frostman is currently my fav and I aim to run it into the ground ala Friday the 13th.
Lastly, the most frequent comment is about Ebolaworld’s lack of updates. I’m pleased to hear this as it means people enjoy my work and want more. The reason for the few updates is because Ebolaworld is updated and maintained by me alone and makes zero dollars. Obviously, I can’t live off nothing and have to maintain several freelance jobs and one full-time job to pay the bills. So, Ebolaworld is more like a hobby and should be considered a demo or work in progress. I make an effort to update it weekly, but it’s not always a possibility, at least for now. I’m currently looking into ways to make Ebolaworld profitable and regularly updated. A lot of my ideas for will implemented in 2006.

I like everything about the site. Most of all I like Sam's perfect portrayal of how the Bush administration works. Sam, do you have an inside refrence?
The only thing I don't like is that Sam makes fun of my dear old (great) Uncle Rumsfeld. Not that I like him as a secretary of state anyway.
I wish we'd see more of the George Bush show and some more features with Pat Robertson.

Haha, "moron". Take it easy my friend. Most of our pals here are still kids.
So you might've overlooked EvilPie's "super question". I know you were hardly getting some headaches. I'm not very sure, but I assume I've seen you around here quite a lot lately, and I love your answers and reaction. Of course, I like the Dutch guy too. "Our dikes do not break" is still my favourite. I find it ok, just to sit back and enjoy the comments.
I am stunned too, sometimes by the vast implosions of questions and comments here. Overall, I registered that most of our friends here are very young, and there're welcomed. So we shall expect interesting comments...
Moron...hahaha.
--------------
My intention to check back here was to reply to Sam's response.
As for me, I never complained about your work. I stated my favors for each cartoons.I enjoy your work anyway, whether I like it or not. I appreciate your work. In fact I find it great that you move to make more 'political' cartoons, since this is likely one of the most demanding franchise, i.e Bush and Linda for example. I also like the point that you follow the 'main stream' interests, your visitors. That is a good point to start.
Don't overwork yourself! I have noticed the short boom, when you were looking for Flash animators, and you presented new weekly formats such as "Ask Taco-man". This was the time when Ebolaworld was at a high peak. I wondered how you could get all work done at once?
We have the main movies you were going to produce. We got the Weekly Update, News Flash, plus Ask Taco-man. It seems to be a lot of work and a lot of pressure. The pressure also comes from the fan base and viewers who aggressively demand more and more, just like 'normal' consumers.
From the high peak to silence. Weekly updates slows down until it stops and so forth. Awaiting main movies have been pushed back, main attraction such as George Bush Show canceled etc. Your comic looks good so far, but it cannot feed the hungry visitors who demand more and more.
I know the hubbles and reasons for all this, because I follow your postings, I just want to tell the view of a 'normal visitor' to Ebolaworld.
My message is, dont overdo yourself. Take your time as needed. The best thing would be a surprise, a cartoon no one expected, and no one expected it would be that good- like Hannity and Colmes for example. This is one of the best effects.
You announce too much that you can handle Sam. Take your time! Take time for your personal life etc, if you feel animating something, then just do what you like to do, don't put yourself under pressure.
You know, if you're announcing new animations on certain dates, the people will surely and I bet they will wanna see that movie which you announced it on the given date. This is a pressure, since people, actually the whole internet community expects to see your movie on that date.
Oh yeah! I remember when you tried to fix

Part2
the Happy Pappy release schedule. The folks were yelling "upload the movie" the whole week! Worst case you had to push it back on next friday, with the result that the movie, respectively part 2 of Happy Pappy was relatively short and it had not the same quality as the previous part like many viewers commented.
It was the lack of time and that pressure to feed your visitors needs.
Don't worry about your fan base. This is very important. This is the base, they watch your movies regularly, visit your site and bring life and traffic, they also donate. You have that base with regular viewers. Ebolaworld is pretty spread through the net. People come and go, but you have at least your fan base. Who would then watch your appreciated movies which you have put a lot effort into it? Don't worry about dates and Homestarr.
Ebolaworld is indeed thousand times more entertaining then a nonsense cartoon from HSR.
Less announcements and dates means LESS PRESSURE FOR YOU SAM (and for your wealth too), but more space for quality and surprises. That's what I expect.
Keept it up.

Announcing release dates serves two purposes. It lets you guys know when I plan to add something to the website, and it gives me a deadline. Without deadlines, I would probably never finish anything.
However, just because I say something will be released on such and such date doesnt mean it will. Ebolaworld is still a hobby and my life and work come first.
BTW, I made this announcement a few posts back, but Ebolaworld has been on hiatus for over a month now and will return on the 31st. I usually take time off around this time every year.

"Announcing release dates serves two purposes. It lets you guys know when I plan to add something to the website, and it gives me a deadline. Without deadlines, I would probably never finish anything."
--
I think you haven't read and understood my comment at all. Moreover I spent some time to tell you this in a polite way, as always. But I think I have to make it more 'clear'
"Announcing release dates serves two purposes" - Annoucing dates which you can't hold, ok.
Why are you making announcements on certain dates when you can't hold them actually? If you push the dates back then, does this proof any reliability?
A deadline ok, maybe you should keep your deadline and work by yourself until you finally finished the movie.
"It lets you guys know when I plan to add something to the website" - Yes, plan. But when it finally comes out is another question.
"However, just because I say something will be released on such and such date doesnt mean it will." - I can't believe you really wrote this. C'mon.
If you announce new toons on given dates, people will of course expect the cartoon to show up on that date!
Does this make any sense? Just because you say something it'll be released on such dates doesn't mean it will. I think the question was answered by itself. However why are you even release the dates when it doesn't mean it will come out!?
"Ebolaworld is still a hobby and my life and work come first." - Just as I said, take your time. But you put yourself under pressure.
The best thing would be to tell the folks that you release a cartoon on July or whenever without an exact date. Keep your deadline for your production by yourself and realease it when you have time.
You know, making huge announcements and big booms is one thing, but if you're unsure about holding the dates, why are you making those dates and announcements anyway? This is something that you wont see in Homestarr Runner and it is unprofessional too. You put yourself under pressure.
Nobody tells you that you must put some new cartoons! Put some new ones if you are ready and if you have time! Don't make announcements and dates which you cannot hold, that is another thing!
Talking about your break. It seems to be a very long break since the last animation.
Don't pressure yourself! Take your time. You still don't get it man.

Baxshtor, don't be rude. This website is a hobby and makes no money. The guys at Homestarruner make a living off their site, and have all the time in the world to devote to it. I'm not so fortunate. I usually make my deadlines, but not always. I do my best and always announce when I take time off and return.
If Ebolaworld ever becomes profitable, you can bet there will be new content produced every week. But until that day, this is the way it’s gonna be. I’ll continue announcing when new content is planned to be released, and keep you updated of any changes. I announced this break a month ago and told you of when I’ll return. I’m only a week behind schedule due to work and life.

You call rude, because I say what is obvious, I never said anything personal. I just leave it right here, it makes no sense at all to talk about it. I have all written everything on the previous posts. I really expected more from you.
----All I said was you step back, take your time for your private life and work. Don't pressure yourself by announcing too much.---- Did anybody ever tell you this here? I think no. Well I care but I get the bashing here ok.

Your advice is something I already practice.
I take announced time off from updating Ebolaworld in order to prepare for the next round of updates and also give me time to take care of personal issues.
I'm ready to start updating Ebolaworld weekly until January. Halloween is usually when Ebolaworld starts up again. When do you expect me to schedule a Halloween Special? In December? I made a relistic schedule for the special, but a few things went wrong and set me back. Completely out of my control. Had these things not happen, the cartoon would be already complete and online last Monday.
I appreciate your advice, but I will continue to make announcements for what I'm working on and when I plan to release it. If I feel it's not possible, I'll let you know. Notice that when I announced a new Linda Show, it was never given a release date. Same for the Bush Show Episode 8.

In other words, release dates are not written in stone and are always tentative. They are simply made and announced to let the viewer know what's coming and to give me a deadline. Without this pressure, I would probably never make a cartoon. It's how I work.

I know what he is saying: Make updates when you have the time, and don’t bother posting a schedule with release dates.
What I’m saying: If I didn’t post a schedule with release dates, I would probably never release anything. I may be a week or so late every now and then, but I’m good with deadlines and need the pressure. And to recuperate, I take a month or so off.

We had such discussions several times.
However I'd be the last one to destroy anyone's illusion. However the American voting system is far being "democratic", in other words it is currupt and manipulated.
Corrupt, undemocratic US voting system: When other countries have slight irregularities in voting procedures, the USA takes this as a pretext to impose heavy trade sanctions. But often these irregularities are caused mostly by ignorance or misunderstandings. But in the 2000 election in the USA, thousands of African Americans were turned back from the polls in Florida because the officials knew that they would vote for the Democrats. As a result the candidate with the second-most votes was selected to be president. This kind of outright racism and election fixing would be regarded as unacceptable in third world countries. A new election would be required, but in the USA, the national interest required that the irregularities be ignored. The hypocrisy of US government lectures on democracy to other countries is shown by the widespread gerrymanders, first past the post voting, and electoral colleges in the USA. At best, one could call the USA a guided democracy

I did vote, but what difference does it make when you are presented with two lousy choices. The best thing America can do is keep the Government equally divided, forcing them to work together. Giving either party full power is never a good idea. At least, not until we have some real leaders in Washington (never happen).

Sam, sorry, this is a minor pet peeve... but...
You just said "never happen" and Taco-Man says this too in one of the episodes. You do know that it's not a grammatically correct thing to say, right? It should be "it'll never happen".
If you said "never happen" to someone here (Toronto), they'd look at you strangely, and would probably assume that you meant to say "never happened".

Why use slang at all? I can understand it if you think that everybody would understand what it means if it's used in the area where you live, but your audience lives in a fairly wide range of places. Why confuse people when it's so easy to say it correctly?
Also, it didn't really sound like slang to me. "Ay up" sounds like slang, "shiznit" sounds like slang - they're different enough from regular English to mark them as slang. "Never happen" just sounds like bad grammar.

I did vote, but what difference does it make when you are presented with two lousy choices. The best thing America can do is keep the Government equally divided, forcing them to work together. Giving either party full power is never a good idea. At least, not until we have some real leaders in Washington (never happen).

You better be quite or you'll get a "don't be rude".
Protesting is a good point to start with. I know there are plenty of Americans who are just humans like you and me. However it wont be enough. USA will remain the same, trying to thief oil, resources, setting monopolistic positions and react in their own interest.
No matter what kind of president is up, America's interest will remain the same. Sieg Heil to them.!
Why...United Kingdom? They still owe the US a lot since WW2. Their government is bloddy the same.

What does protesting do? Nothing. The media will simply smear any group that protests. Also, you are now required to get permits to protest and can only do so in small out of the way areas where no one will see you.
The only way to make change in America is to be part of a lobby group with huge wads of money. The Christian coalition is a good example of this.

I think Netherlands will do good in the future, besides Germany. Everyone does it's own thing, the one more for Europe, the other more for America.
But what is really paining my ass is the whole fuss about terrorism! Thanks America! Actually the Germans take it very easy. They jail those radical islamists before they do anything. I like the prevention here. But thanks to the "global terrorism" respectively bullshit, our minister for security is so high on crack that he want's more cameras, phone call interception and so on just like the UK. The opposition government goes totally nuts, they want to use the Army for in-land issues, because of terrorism of course...
The opposition here in Germany are a bunch of ass lickers. We all remember when Angela Merkel went to the states right after the Iraq war and she said that it would've been different if she were in the government. To make it short: She wanted to send troops if she were Bundeskanzler at that time. Now nobody wants to remember what she said for a couple of years ago. A bunch of hypocrits.
We earned a lot trouble for not joining the Iraq war, hell the majority of the people here want no war anyway, never again. Germany goes into a new direction to be more sovereign and more closer to European roots and interests.
I think that we coupe up with Russia is a strategic and economical move. Former enemies in WW2 and the cold war, now close Ally and friend.
We are not interested in communism of course. But Russia is a good partner, for economics and military.. The big problem is that Germany is a must member in NATO, because we were forced to get in here after WW2. That means if some war comes up, we are not "allowed" to tie with Russia because they still "our enemies".
I live in Baden Württemberg.

The Baxshtor, what do you mean, not talk about religious things? It's probably the only thing me and Sam talk about.
Captain Caveman is from a Hanna Barbera cartoon, Sam nicknamed me like that because I said I was living in a Cave.
Actually, I like some of Filip Dewinter's points, I'm not a racist but he has some good opinions. Most people hate him not even knowing anything about him or his party, just like a lot of kids hate bush for mainstream opinions, which are mostly true, but still. Do not debate / throw your opinion on something you almost know nothing about.

russia isn't a good partner
first of all we'll have to change the voting system in the Europian Union, so that we can vote by person and not by member. Offcourse each member should have something to say, but not much.
then we should create an army. purely for defence(goz the mebers would never agree about an attack). Then we should try too change africa an other third-world countries in to independent democracies. Then we will be as powerful as the US is now and china will be.
And never we should coöperate with russsia, because it isn't a democracy but a dictatorship and the press isn't free(and thats important)
And about the swine and aSShole filip dewinter, I looked on there site, and like all right-winged party's the say allot but when it comes to the point of power the suck ass, there rascists and only think about themselves just like the bastards of the NVU(nederlandse volks unie) there just nazi's.
I think you like the point of them that they want an independent Vlaanderen, but you've forgot your history, the people in belgium foght for it with blood and sweat. Many lives where lost. But you succeded.
And now the only thing you have to do is make belgium a republic with 2 or 3(your german part) states but 1 goverment.

@Caveman, it's alright, don't worry, I was just joking. About the religious thing, I had to put a pun on the previous post from Sam. Nothing serious.
Thanks my European friends, your comments are very interesting, please keep on.
I tell you the viewpoint of Germany and it's situation. Germany has a big burden:
-WW2 and it's responsibility after postwar
-West Germany/East Germany - Europe divides.
-Cold War.
Germany was reunited only for about 15 years ago. Europe was a war ground in the past hundred years. We strive to be not only partners and neighbors, we want to be friends too! Europe is for us and me important. Germany has close ties with it's neighbors. France, once a hard enemy is now our best friend. Russia, one of the biggest foes in the war past is now a close Ally and partner.
Many ignore the fact, that Germany would be once again a war ground during the Cold War. Germany is the cross road for the Red Army. Thousands of Allied and enemy tanks would run over the country side. In worse scenario, we'll be the first ones to get the Russian nukes, because Germany is the strategic cross road and it's closer to Russia.
Both sides, Germany and Russia had the highest Army casulties during WW2. No sides are interested to war each other AGAIN. However, circumstances happened. The feud with USA and Russia began. Note it was not a feud with Germany, however after the war, Germany WAS FORCED to join NATO and defend Western asses and principles. The Americans were very interested to let the "old dog" Germany fight against the old enemy Bolshewiks.
Me, this is not about communism. This is about a clever and strategic Alliance, Berlin-Paris-Moscow, respectively Germany and Russia. We fought against Russia, we do know what we talk about, believe me.
The ties with Russia was strenghten years over years, especially when Iraq war started and our European comrades seem to be more interested in the benefits for joining the coalition force.
Back to Russia, if you want to understand this, then you need fundamental knowledge in geo politics, strategy, war history.
-Why fight each other? For what?
-We can profit from each other and the
results are remarkable. Many German
companies are investing in Russian resources.
-Cooperation in the oil business. There's plenty of oil and resources in Russia. Remember Stalingrad? German troops were heading to the oil fields, but they got stuck.... Now we want the oil again, but in the legal way. The Russians give it to us.
-Germany and Russia joint venture to build a pipeline to bring some Diesel to Germany. This guarantees a save energy future.
-"Ah..c'mon we both hate the US"
-Both were bloody hell enemies, but now we work together.
-Germany:Why the hell do you still have over 100 KGB agents in Germany left??! Russia:Well your arms technology are very interesting for us....
-We are good business partners. Russia is part of Europe, they have power to

potential and growth.
This is a clever strategic partnership.
This is a sterotype. Russia communism, corruption etc. What about China? This is nearly the same thing but sometimes even harder. No one discusses how the Chinese melt down there own people and what about internet censorship?! People get arrested and never come back. Russians are people like you and me, even they live with a strange system. Have you met any Russians? They are great people, they don't want any war, are lovely people.
Who can counter Anglo-Saxon world domination by USA, UK, NZ, Australia and maybe Canada too?
EU? No, they are too split up, too many US asslickers. Not enough countries who stand behind Europe. The European Union is like a vision in everyone's head, but there are only a few countries who fight, live and sacrifice for it.

Do you think that they will still be split up after we have changed the voting system.
The problem is that people don't care about the EU.
Because they have little to say and there is a to great bureaucratism.
Europe can be united, just like germany onces did.(and no I'm not talking about east and west but about:Baden, Thuringen, Saxony, Lorraine, Hamburg, Hessen, Hannover etc etc etc)

Sorry for my late response. I always come and look right here.
Let's get down to business. The voting system is not relevant about the "split-up" attitude of the EU. It's all about a countries interest. Is it more for EU or I look beyond and say the transatlantic patnership and cooperation with the USA is more important.
As we've all seen. The Iraq war was a perfect spot. We could see who joined the coalition of the willing and join the illegal war.
Spain, Italy, Netherlands etc. What was wrong? I cannot tell for sure, but I can say that all participated countries had interests in the US led coalition.
What were the benefits? Such oil, business, money or even everything? Well, these countries who joined pretty much know what benefits they get.
Anyway. I wont tell blubber pink flowers here. The UK are giving EU information to the USA. Among Great Britain, there are a few others who "sabotage" and "ruin" the European Union. In fact, we don't have a EU foreign minister, because we don't have a EU politics which represents all EU countries interest. Do you want a united Europe?
Some say NO, first comes my country and then EU. What can you offer the EU?
Let's get this straight, people who are living AND enjoy European law, system, strong currency don't even know what EU's potential and power really is. There are many benefits and the list would be too long to write it down here and that's why many East Europeans want to join the Community.
EU is like a boat, we have over 20 men and everyone has to puddle. Some puddle stronger, and the others let the others puddle like hell, while they keep relaxing.
On the other hand, Europe is the largest market in the world! HOW IN THE FUCK are we the last in global economy? Our growth is slow and low, unemployment is high like fuck. We are behind America and Asia, that is shit!
The reason of huge bureaucratism, lazy economy etc is because we have a lot of motherfuckers in the EU office in Brussel who earn a lot of money and are more corrupt then Italian Mafia! We can do it a lot easier, shorter and even better! Wrong people are in the house.

Do you even realize how much they earn for doing nothing? I also want to sit in Brussels and enjoy good food for free!
Some points:
Some EU partners must pull their head off US asses and stop ass-licking.
Oh Spain and Nederlande pull their troops and said good bye to Iraq.
Germany for EU: YES, pay some cash, a lot cash. Do some recommendation for Poland to join EU and give them Leopard tanks and Migs for free. The same with Turkey
EU for Germany: NO, Germany had hard time to loose a lot money to East Germany. Germany lost a bunch of money and jobs because of history. Now can somebody help us? I guess no. We need more credit, but if we order more credit we break the EU deficit again.
Maybe it would be "a good idea" to join an illegal war and earn something in return!!
YES, we need less bureaucratism, less motherfuckers and EU dick heads.
Voting system? I think you're pointing out to the failed EU referendum about a "1-Europe in Brussel system". Too much for European citizen, THEY WANT JOBS, THEY WANT MONEY, THEY WANT A SAVE FUTURE!!! And we don't need Turkey at all...
I am proud to be friends with France, Nederlande, Belgium, and all other European neighbors. We can come in your country without paying border toll or such. I love the trading system also.
I can drive to Denmark, without pay some border shit, pay with Euro etc. It's like going in and out easily.

your wrong bout the voting system
I see it as a way to force people the look further than just jobs, they will have to get envolved, guz most of the people want to know what the vote.
and yes countries are selvish
guz they stand strong
but when you give the power to the people political party's are forced to unite.
The union isn't about economics, its about power. and power you can get in many ways.
But it are the citizens that should take that power and juse it to spread peace, democracy and much more.
Just look what happened in the USA when people lost there power cause the media was owned by the political party's.
O and another thing, the union is to much of a christen, thats why its good to have Turkey in the union, that balances it.

You and your voting. Nederlande and France voted for no, and it was an effect to other countries. What do you mean by voting system? You have to explain more. I don't know what you're saying.
People had the choice to vote for the EU referendum. France voted no, Nederlande said no and so on. UK said no anyway. Remember, people voted and had the choice.
Yes, Power. You can only have power when you are stable and our countries aren't stable at all in case of EU foreign policy and unemployment etc. People could vote if they wanted the Euro, Eurofighter, Referendum and so on. Just like Italy, Austria and so on did. They already voted. People have the choice to vote.
Turkey: It's not about religious. You have to look beyond it. We have in the last few years new members, a lot of cash went through. What are the benefits? It's all our money.
I haven't been satisfied with the EU latley. In fact more then over the half of the EU citizens aren't satisfied. We have no money, no jobs, and a lot trouble!
We don't have money and nerves to handle more members right now, that is fact.
In my case, I don't care about the Turks if they come in or not. But I care about the future of the European Union, and it is my money that Germany always through away to the EU.
You should look about the worries people have in Europe. It's about Jobs, future, health and so on.
France and Nederlande are afraid, if Turkey comes in the EU, many Turish will overfill their countries. That is what most France and Dutch said and many Europeans too, that is fact. Like I said, I don't care, but I care about the money, my money.

First of all, there isn't a country who pais more per citizen then NEDERLAND(en niet nederlande)
Thats also the main reason why the Netherlands said no. Is it fair that the Netherlands who pay so much, get so little in return: NO. But thats not the only reason. In Nederland the people see the EU as a bureaucratic organization who absorbs allot of money, but allows animals to be treated bad, doesn't care much about the enviroment.
And another big reason:
France, Germany and England control the EU, when they say no its no. So thats why many people in the Netherlands feel powerless.
And who wants to be in a organization where you have no vote.
The countries have the power and they only think for themselves.
Lets say the EU has 200 million inhabitants that or 18 or older. They should have the right to vote on a parlement who totally controls the EU, unlike now.
The ministers control it.
So the big countries rule.
And the small are being forgotten.
So the Dutch said no.
The french said no because of another reason.
Okay?

Yeah, we gave you the position as number 1 EU payer since we have problem dealing with the East-Germany and financial disaster. I know very well Nederlande pays the whole.
Germany paid a lot, thanks to Schröder, while he was visiting Brüssel, he said Germany wont go far then the financial possibilities allow. This is means we stop feading the EU with our money. It's time to let others bleed.
France and Germany took the leading role as "main force" from Chruchill's concept as a peace continent. Germany was not intended to be a role nation or what so ever. We have to deal with other problems. I have named them often here. I can say, that EU is not without Germany, because this country is the biggest European economy and thrid largest economies behind USA and Japan. Not because we wanted, because we are able to.
Now, many things have changed, Germany is one of the last in EU with many problems, and nobody in EU helps, like Germany did when the European Union reached it peak times with free and toll free trading and business. I don't care who is lead nation, give it to Austria or whoever we don't care in Germany, but the EU want's us to be a role nation, because Germany contributed a lot for Europe.
I don't know what France contributes to the EU.
I think your worries and perceptions are understandable. Bigger nations rule etc. I know what you mean and feel, but as I said we Germans don't care. We don't care.
We have good relations to everybody in Europe.
France and Germany are the biggest populution with the biggest influence in Europe. But Germany is quite I like that, we don't talk much, we don't want to be a leader or anything. We care about Nederlande and others.
My personal opinion. Who buys more US stuff, who participate in US illegal wars, who are asslicking with the US- they don't deserve a single shit in Europe.
Best example is Poland, we helped them to get in EU, give them tanks and planes for free, and by the way what do they do with their new EU money? THEY BUY AMERICAN F16's!! Didn't they want to spend the money elsewhere?
UK? They never make any advices or have any good ideas for the EU. The only thing they do is critisize and sabotage European goods. UK is the most EU-scepticals in Europe! They really have nothing to say, believe me.
About the "smaller" countries, Germany treat our friends and partners equaly, no matter how big they are. Germany is the leading import and export nation with Nederlande. We have very good relationships.
We have a Dutch/German Army, and we are the Dutch/German Brigade are the lead nations in ISAF in Afghanistan. We give you German Technology such tanks and other stuff, because we treat you as an equal "big" partner.
Germany had nothing much to do at all in the EU referendum my friend! BECAUSE WE COULDNT vote for EU yes or no like in France or Nederlande. The German government immediatly said yes because germany IS the most PRO-EU country in Europ

When it comes to Europe, Germany stands up because we want peace and good relations in Europe. So Germany does not forget our "smaller" friends. We aren't bigger then you guys, just because our population is highter.
France NO, Nederlande NO, UK said oh fuck you guys we said NO anyway. Too much NO, Austria No etc. Forget Germany, those buggers said yes anyway without asking their people.
We watched the Dutch EU vote by the way. It was interesting and the minister also spoke in German.

Sam T,
You do a great job on the animations and you seem to have a pretty good sense of humor. On that you also seem to know how to laugh at yourself at the same time. I mean even though I'm a Republican (and mind you that won't change ever) I find your Bush jokes entertaining as well as your jokes on drugs and such (although the God jokes are more annoying than anything else), even though I don't agree with them. I would recommend more interaction between all your characters. For example, with the weekly update with Taco-Man where Taco-Man would be doing his segment and get asked questions by several of the other characters like: Bunny Bunny, Smokey, or Grandpa just coming in messing everything up. Otherwise, I think you need to stick to what you're doing.

I can't believe that you guys are saying the same crap that Sam T has been trying to hard to discredit.
You're making broad generalizations accross the map, and you seem to actually believe in them. Why are so many Europeans that I've met like this? "This country is like this", "this country has this character", COUNTRIES DO NOT HAVE CHARACTERS! Countries are made up of individual people, many of whom don't agree with the direction that the leader(s) of their country chooses! How many ruling governments in Europe or anywhere were actually elected by a majority of the population? I can only think of the US off the top of my head (and even so, by a slim margin) - in Canada, our ruling party has 37% of the popular vote.
Germany does not stand for peace - this is a nonsense statement. A country is not a living thing and should not be treated as such! This blatant generalization and stereotyping is exactly how wars begin.

Esn, take a nap or do whatever you want, but don't join any internal EU discussion from which you don't have a single piece of knowledge my friend. I've been here a little bit longer then you with Ebolaworld and there's nothing then stereotyping. People know me, and what I am talking about. This is not about who is bad and such, we talk about what is going on for real.
About Germany: Germany agreed to cut it's fund and Army personnel by the end of the Cold War. The institution have never reached 500.000 Army men. The German Army is not capable to "win" a war alone, simply because we don't have the man power.
Esn, do you even know what European Union means and do you even know the history of the oldest continent? I guess no. Germany has several peace chartas and contracts whithin our neighbors and friends. We reduce Army and buy less materials then we really need.
Years over years, there's a huge increase of young men who decline military conscript service. In fact there are more people that are going outside to protest against war, poverty etc.
In my case, I also declined Army, although I had to go, but I said no, among hundred thousand recruits.
Germany has a clever and strategic foreign policy. The citizens, young and old don't want any war ever again.
Do you know Konrad Adenauer and other historical German polititicians except Schröder and Hitler?
The historical politicans made what should be not possible. It is gaining trust and partnership among our "former enemies". This doesn't happen in just 2 days. This requires intelligent foreign policy and we stand behind the history.
Unlike Japan, we are surrounded by friends and partners. This is the work years of foreign policy. Our relationship with France, Poland, Russia and many other countries that were victims of the Nazi terror have now outstanding relationships. The German Chancellor has been invited to the Ardennes, D-Day ceremony, as well as the Russian victory day in Moscow.

This is one of many examples. Unlike Japan we don't visit a Yasukini Shrine and stand in front of mass murders and give respect to them.
Could you imagine a German politician stands in front of former Nazi graves and pay respect to them. Germany would never do such horrible things because we do not honor war criminals and provocate our neighbors.
I can tell you something, many military openings in the German Army are interrupted by protests. Many Germans say that Germany should completely remove the Army, some say remove the conscript and you tell me this citizens aren't a peaceful nation? Have you heard about the "human chain" where thousands of Germans have protested against nuklear equipment. Do even know what the Germans really want after 2 damn world wars? Have you heard about UN peacekeeping mission? Yes we send troops to Africa and everywhere they need us, but we wont waste our energy to join an illegal war such as the Iraq campaign. Speaking of the Iraq, my former class went to the city to demonstrate against the war, like many others did.
And by the way, Germany has a good reputation, especially France voted over 77% for us in the world popularity. With US is one of the last, and Canada a little bit more ahead then the states but Germany is one in the top. Why?
Young people are too fixed in WW2, they don't know how it happened and they don't know what happened to the Germans who said 'no'. You guys watch too much Saving Private Ryan etc.
It's not about cars, Mercedes, Smart etc. It's the image of true German individuals.
I think this goes far beyond your imagination anyway and while reading your intelligent post, I can surely say you'd better stick watching a lot cartoons and leave this discussion to others. I wont comment or reply on further statements from you, unless the content are mature, wise, intelligent and well thought. I'm tired of this discussion.
Captain: I used to use Opera too, but sometimes I don't know. The new version, 9 is out right? They should've made the browser earlier freeware. They have only about 0.9-1.5 market share compared to other browsers.
I use the good Firefox and I'm looking forward to v1.5

I'm sorry ESN, I don't want any troube here and with you.
By the way are games cheaper in Belgium and Nederlande? When I went to Holland, the Super Nintendo games were pretty cheap (1996). They were like 30 or 40% cheaper and the people were very nice too

Sorry...Nederland...
Petrol is a huge problem here, it's around 1,60-1,70€ per litre. Many drive to Czech or Poland to tank.
New games are like around 50€ or 55€...too expensive. That's why Germany is number 1 in Emule, together with China.

new games or 50 here to.
But I don't understand the petrol thing.
Petrol is 1.30-1.40 here.
And many dutch are tanking in Germany.
Just like we buy fireworks in Belgium.
And about the referendum held in the Netherlands.
The mayority of the dutch politcal party's was NOT against the new constitution. But the goverment did to little to convert the people. And the party's that where against where very convincing.
And about the division that germany and the Netherlands have together, thats very good. Most of the Dutch find the German thanks and many other weapons the best in the world.
Looks like you'll get never get rid of that.
And most of the Dutch don't see Germany as there enemy. But unfortunatlythe Arabic world.
Thanks to those fucking republicans, Dutch tolorance is declining, especially towards the Moslims.
But me German friend, within 2.5 years there will be a very different rule here.
Cause then the left party's will rule again.
You see the right party's here are very unpopular(the fucked up our economy, Dutch people don't like it when to get less to spend.

Another thing about germany.
Are there ideas within the politcal party's to legalise soft-drugs or make public transportision free.
And the main reason why Dutch "like" Geramny is because of the fact that 25% of the Dutch Economy depends on Germany.

I also don't understand at all. Most Germans, who live near the country borders, take a ride to our neighbors. Mostly East Europe ie Czech, Poland and so on as I stated before. By the way cigarettes are also expensive, like 4€. We buy them in East Europe, but it's hard to through the customs and border police with all the goodies.
We share our technology with our friends. Actually your Leopard 2 A6 tanks with additional upgrades are better, and yes we know our friends love it. Germany loves to cooperate with our partners. The same thing with Belgium, we love them too like any other here in Europe.
We have many Dutch visitors in Germany and many speak perfect German which is very impressing.
I watched the recent issue in Nederland. I can't remember his name, but he was a famous Dutch film director. Unfortunetely he got killed (stabbed) by a Arab/Muslim because he made a "critical" movie about the Islam and such. The Dutch public were very pissed, literally.
I know Belgish, Dutch, French, Greek, Spanish, Polish etc people have a decent tolerance and acceptance for the Germans today. Our European friends know what we did. The Nazi terror is always in our minds. Nevertheless, our neighbors "like" us for being great partners, good classic musicians, philosophers and for proofing sorrow and regret for the war crimes during World War 2. German citizens and politicans work hard with heart to improve friendship and trust.
The only thing we observe is the Anti-German attitude in British society and especially media. One of my fave quotes are "One Reich, One Führer, One Euro" or "Let's Blitz, Fritz". "We all agree in Europe, we all hate them".
"The Brits have a problem with their self identity [...] Are they in Europe, or is the relationship with the United States more important? [...] Politicians and even the public are fusing Europe with Germany, and the danger of Europe is always: 'well, the Germans are taking us over.'"
I don't know much about Dutch parties, but I like Dutchs anyway. I'm glad if the Dutch is gonna be left left, but could you do something about the NATO chief? (+_+) ..... He is a little bit strange and he got an US injection.
Soft drugs like hush, weed etc? No way, too many kids and young adults smoke too much. The Germans are quite strict in terms of that. Besides that, as you PROBABLY know from the tv news, Germany has actually no ready government yet.... it's like a rollercoaster. There're all incompetent money thieving bugs, Germany goes down.
The public transportation fee for bus, train etc will be reduced BUT ITS still fucking high!

Roman Catholic 31%, Dutch Reformed 13%, Calvinist 7%, Muslim 5.5%, other 2.5%, none 41% (2002)
This is totally true but:
If allot of people say they are religious but have never been to churge. And the mayority of the roman catholics here are in favor of gay-marriage.
And if you look to other country's you see that the Netherlands have a very high percentage of refuges and other ethenics groups.
I also must see that the famous Dutch tolerance is converting into nationalism. Mostly thanks to the muther of Pim Fortyun and Theo van Gogh.
And that nato-chief is of a right-winged party and it wheren't the Netherlands that decided to select him. The USA needed an assliker.
And I think Britain acts this way cause is isolated from mainland europe, its an Island which has never been conquered
The last to do that where the Dutch, but thats wasn't really an invasion, you see our king became there king and unfortunatly that king changed England into a nation with a good economy. Many companies in the Netherlands moved into England and much more english companies grew thanks the our king.
Offcourse the Dutch-English wars also play a very important part. We won the first 3 and they won the last.
The have there own rules.
They drive on the left side for example.
But they are also a bit cocky.
The slew Napoleon and Hitler.
Because they where an Island.
Islands have it easy.
Strangsly the Netherlands who where conquered by the French and Germans an probably much more nations servived. And look at us now.
Good Economy, education, democracy, media, etc.

I watched NATO chief van de asslicker in Munich, Holland and recently in Berlin o n the Anniversary of the Bundeswehr. When I saw him at first and listened I thought he's American because what he blubbered really sound like he was one.
The Brits are strange, they are isolated, living in an island. They love to bash Germany.
Without the support and the leasing deal with the US, UK would not be able to handle Africa and French campaign by themselfs.
The UK has a many things to pay back to the US. Plus they were "forced" to give up the empire.
