Wow...I know lots of "intolerable turds" who don't have foreign accents. Ann Coulter comes quickly to mind - just before Sean Hannity.

(Ann did a lovely piece recently on "retards")

But it never occurred to me to denigate all people with "American" accents because of those nasty pieces of work.

(p.s. Since Mexico and Canada are also on the North American continent...aren't their accents "American" too?)
