Pointing and laughing

Apparently, the rest of the world pays more attention to our politics than we do...without having to suffer through it...or maybe by this time they just point and laugh?

The social network and dating website Badoo.com asked 30,000 people across 15 countries to name both the "funniest," or best at making people laugh," and "the least funny" nationality.

Americans took the funniest prize


And all this before our latest round of Weiner jokes and tea-wrestling.

Apparently, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and our newest "target audience" Yemen were not allowed to participate.

Not surprising--we think we're the indispensable nation in the world, and the world thinks we're the biggest clowns.

So much for American exceptionalism. We're the greatest laughing stock in modern history....
