America's biggest mistakes
Andrew and I were having a discussion, and we wanted the input from patrons of the OB.
As an expat, I am always conscious of America's image in the world. America has done some terrible, horrible things, things which I am ashamed to even think about. Nonetheless, it is necessary to accept our faults, recognize our mistakes and try to live day by day while ensuring that they never happen again.
So, I want you all to consider the biggest blunders of American history. Which of the following songs is the most embarrassing mistake in American culture?
1. The Thong Song, by Cisqo
2. Who Let the Dogs Out, by Baha Men
3. Hot in Herre, by Nelly
4. Crank Dat Soulja Boy, by Soulja Boy Tell'em?

I like this video... and it works in this thread. Lots of great imagery in the video.
EDIT: racists
List other songs you think are terrible too!
I like penguins. I kept expecting the Wampa in the snow lair on Hoth to show up, though.
And I happen to find those songs funny! They're not quite as funny as Baby got Back, but I'm wondering if you would find that song as embarassing for America.
The Thong Song? GENIUS!
EDIT:
So are we doing the entire continent, then? Also, "Who Let the Dogs Out" is actually a cover of a song by Anslem Douglas, from Trinidad and Tobago.
You cannot talk about musical horrors when Britain has: The Birdy Song, The Agadoo, Showaddywaddy and God knows how many others.
Honestly it seems kinda like the British version of country music... but with less fail. The blind nationalism and religious affiliation of much country music irks me.
Not that it really matters anyway, because the people seem to agree on Soulja Boy.
You lie.
What, you mean lines like these bug you?
You should be shot for treason! /sarcasm
