Forgive me - but ...

True.  But I don't feel too bad.  After all, I could probably go anywhere in the world and find people who would say just as stupid things in front of a camera ;)  I've heard a lot of ignorant things come out of the mouths of some very smart people...

I probably would have had trouble thinking of a country that began with a "U" on short notice too...  I had to sit there and really think before I came up with Uganda and Uruguay...  United Arab Emirates...  Are there any others?  But I would NEVER have come up with the United States.  I usually just think of it as America  :geek:

That's just what my husband did.  I was telling him about the stupid questions people were missing and I said to name a country that starts with the letter U.  He named Uganda and Uruguay and then he stalled... I said what about United States and he did a facepalm!  I told him not to feel bad, that at least he didn't say Utah! :D

Well given where I live - I came up with Uruguay first as well.  But that's more than likely because the media will refer to this country as Great Britain, Britain or England, rarely the UK

Yeah, I hadn't even though about the UK... *blush*

[Bree]

I must be odd because I came up with Uzbekistan first. :D

[Eimi]
