4. I don't think that BushCo. is responsible for all the evils in the world.... |
|
His supporters/voters are responsible for a great deal...

6. However, it should alsobe noted that BushCo is not an American corporation |
|
it is a transnational network, much like Bin Laden's, and certainly connected to Bin Laden. We are starting to see part of the network exposed with the revelations of the arms deals with the House of Saud.

8. Actually over the last one hundred years. England has screwed |
|
up things much more than the US. You are right, it is not all of Bushcos fault.

11. Yes, but that was mainly during the first 40 years of that last 100 |
|
The Brits eventually got used to not running an empire - except for that anachronism Tony, who couldn't handle being born in the wrong century and latched on to Bush's empire as a substitute for having his own.
When all countries get over that disease of imperialism, the world will be a better place.

12. Yes - there were bombs in London long before Bushco |
|
Even Guy Fawkes managed a spot of terrorism without Bush's help!

19. Me, too. Except that it's "naught", not "nowt". |
|
You'd think a UK'er would know that - even a Southern UK'er.

31. Which "this" country? U.S. or U.K. |
|
Do you think the U.K. would be fending off car bombs if Shrub hadn't stirred up a Middle East hornet's nest?

33. Of course - but you do realize it has escalated during the Bush |
|
years . . . right? Now, after even Gerry Adams has made his peace, Britain is being subjected to the side benefits of being close, personal friends with the world's latest King George.

34. He's made it worse to be sure |
|
But he didn't start the phenomenon, nor will it end after he is gone. It will only end when extremist "holy" leaders decide to tell their followers to stop it.
