2. God, no!
My comments should be at the bottom of that list - I mention the £2 Council Tax hike for Londoners and the "electric Gatling gun."

My wife like the post - but she suggested that I should have mentioned that since Londoners are paying £2 extra for the Bush visit, they should keep him. Great idea - but do we really want to do that to the UK? (They do give us some excellent drum-and-bass...)

5. Hmm...odd.
HM is usually so good at hiding her emotions. She managed to smile for so many photos with Thatcher, all the while hating the woman's guts.

6. Nice!
Cool comments!

I like to read comments from the US on the BBC website, almost as much as I like to read stuff here.

And thanks for reminding me of why there's an extra £2 on my CT bill this year!

7. Hmm...I have an idea...
Why not have everyone in Britain who is billed for this trip send the White House an invoice for the two pounds so that you can be reimbursed for the Idiot In Chief's photo ops. Doesn't seem fair that YOU have to pay for this rich idiot's vacation.
