CNN.com ---> (Gordon) Brown added, "The world owes George Bush a huge debt of gratitude" for his efforts against terrorists.
I am an American and I don't feel anyone owes our dumbass president any gratitude. We are raping entire countries.

actually, as much as I must deride and hate the uk administration, and the way they have shafted the country, and made everyone a rightsless prisoner in their own homes, I far far prefer Gordon Broon over that pasty ass slime ball, blair,,, he seems like he's actually got some balls, even though he is a powerless puppet.
A few times in Question Time he's flared up against the equally incipid opposition and seemed like he quite has some fire in his belly, and obviously to become prime minister is no accident, smarts wise. I wish we;d had him for the last 10 years, not fuckwit tony.
And the worst thing is ----there's noone better to take his place.

To give him the benefit of the doubt, he might just be paying lip service to Bush knowing he will (hopefully) be gone before too long.

Is he MENTAL? What about a huge doubt of middle fingers up straight on the air? We owe him what? HIS EFFORT FOR WHAT? Come on! WHAT TERRORISTS DID OUR PRESIDENT FIGHT? WHERE THE FUCK IS OSAMA? Probably enjoying Margaritas at CASA BLANCA (The Whitehouse not the Morocco City) while he sniffes cocaine and the too fatso he has for daughters blowing some dude! Give me a brake! And then they ask why there is people trying to kill them!
MR. BROWN: GO FUCK YOURSELF!

the uk has long been the 50 somthing'th state, a us aircraft carrier just off the coast of europe - in a very strategic position, full of a very inventive people who (nearly) speak the same language as 'US', and who are controlled and blasted by a television media like no other place on earth. That same media has ingrained in the british public a national sense that the us, for better or worse 'won' the second world war for the allies, and being brought up in england is to have instilled in you the sense that the us is like a muscular giant of a younger brother, not quite as savvy as you, a bit rough around the edges, but loyal and overall a good guy.
The alternative was, prior to the whole one-europe thing was a pitiful existence at the margin of a continent full of foreign-speakers most of whom we had been at war with solidly for the last 1000+ years, and all of whom actually disliked us somewhat..
In a sense, particularly as the dual exporters of almost all english-language culture, the two nations are indivisible, and even within the us homeland I would say that there are greater regional differences in peoples there than between the us as a whole and the uk..
The iraqi war was, as was every major 'policy' decision of the last 50 years, lead by mulitnational corporations who are far more powerful than any one nation state, and certainly it's politicians could ever pretend to be.
What was Gordon Brown supposed to do when he stood on the Rose Lawn, start an overshadowing and ultimately pointless argument with a man who struggles to put three words together ?
I switched on just in time to hear George say that his 'Benchmark for success in Iraq is.....victory.
And success."
How Gordon Brown didnt guffaw like a donkey right in his face, I don't know - that was indeed a moment of excellent politicianship.
Britain has no, nor ever will have an Obama, there just isn't the hope. Anyone with his ambition left the place a long time ago.- Dog-earApr 17, 08, 7:43 p.m. – Permalink

Gordon Brown is a complete joke and ever since he fell into the Prime Minister's position he has been involved in nothing but f*ck up after f*ck up after f*ck up.
Makes me wanna up sticks and leave (although I wouldn't be able to drive outta here because I could only afford the petrol to get me about 3 miles).

This whole thing with Gordon Brown is just wrong from the start. We shouldn't even be having this discussion because who the f*ck voted this guy in??? Certainly not the British public. As soon as Tony Blair stepped down their should've been a general election. Makes me laugh, all we hear about is democracy in Iraq, Afghanistan, Zimbabwe, Kenya all over the place and we end up with some dude as our PM that no-one f*cking voted for.

Hey scribbler, maybe you should read up on how british politics works.
The only way you could have ever voted for Tony Blair is if you lived in his Sedgefield constituency, otherwise a you vote for a politician that represents a party. The party wins not the politician.- Dog-earApr 18, 08, 3:55 a.m. – Permalink
