If you're so easily embarrassed just stay at home?

BTW, what you SHOULD be embarrassed about is your defective keyboard
which is apparently unable to produce capital letters!!

So go and be the American who doesn't do that.

Well, you're in luck, because that only happens at protest rallies.

and am also embarassed to see americans being spit on in foreign
countries.

Better luck still! That doesn't happen at all.

sports fans cheer and wave their flags -- they wave British flags,
French flags etc etc -- why is it 'embarrassing' when the Americans do
it? [not that it isn't ALL silly and embarrassing -- just why is it any
more so when it is Americans]

well the US will have to behave better in its international diplomacy to
avoid that

Well, you're in luck, because that only happens at protest rallies.

haven't traveled in Greece yet -- but it doesn't happen in England,
France, Italy, Switzerland or the Netherlands -- at least not in the
past few years of my experience.

Flags are fine and normal. The "U-S-A" chant, when nobody else is doing it,
is a little much sometimes.

Ah, where are the good old times when olympics were all about *individual*
feats. Rather than tribal and drugs-supported that is?

Weren't flags meant to be burnt? (Actually, I could think of a couple
other uses in an emergency. )

Anyway, as long as the whole think is a celebration of tribalism, I'll
just boycott it.

You deserve to be embarrassed....The US brought about all of the hate and
loathing send your way by barging into counrties and bullying them into
accepting your way of life. The USA had NO business being in Iraq.
