October 26, 2004 -- LONDON — A British newspaper apologized yesterday for a weekend article in which a writer appeared to call for the assassination of President Bush.

BRIT PAPER SORRY

Well, at least this much is true.

[The Red Zone]

yeah, how would they like if someone wrote a letter to the new york times asking to shoot their queen?

[goldstategop]

Bullocks. They're only sorry Americans were outraged they printed it in the first place.

One more time, before the anti-British crowd piles in:

An Open Letter to the Guardian (by a Brit)

Regards, Ivan

Four years ago our very own CBS had a show that put the caption "Snipers Wanted" below a picture of President Bush. There are jerks in every country, I'm afraid.

[broadsword]

Oh, gosh! So very sorry I raped your mother and burned your house down. Well, then... everything is just fine now that I said, "sorry", isn't it?

No?

Why you bloody ungrateful Yank!

[Caipirabob]

If nothing else, we know the Brits must suffer turds in their media on a daily basis as we do.

You da man, Ivan! What a response!!

[broadsword]

Nobody is mad at you, sir, but I bet that jerk is still working at that same paper and they are still carrying on just the same. Probably gave him a raise. I am sorry that your country suffers the same commie morons that we suffer.

[Tax Government]

Let's see how sorry they are when out of business.

Hey Ivan, I say the Brits are defined by their corageous troops in Iraq, not an inconsequential wacko reporter. We have a few like him right here at home, so not to worry.

I love Britain. I was stationed there in the early 90's (USAF)and fell in love with it. Probably some ancestral thing. Loved your letter and do appreciate the fact that not all Brits (and other Euro's for that matter) have drank the BlameAmerica kool-aid. Wish I could say the same for your media. BBC seems to be the media outlet for Al-Queda.

...a retraction only because one of the majority of such publications in England was caught. The spirit of King George III's insanity continues to live and be ever as morbid there.

[familyop]

Thank you for writing that letter, Ivan.

[ladyinred]

I would imagine they were bombarded with emails expressing outrage at this despicable article, as well as a visit from the US SS.

Hey Ivan, I say the Brits are defined by their corageous troops in Iraq, not an inconsequential wacko reporter.

Just as you say. As in this country, there are the soldiers and those who abuse them, so in Britain. I think the troops from England are a far different sort than the priviledged elitists who owe their paychecks to a subculture at odds with country, virtue, and freedom itself.

In both the UK and America we have freedom of speech because of the Soldier, not the journalist.

The journalist has won the freedom to lie without consequence.

[skinkinthegrass]

Isn't the editor of this rag, a Klintoon @$$-ki$$er...friend, too?

[skinkinthegrass]

..we have freedom of speech because of the Soldier, not the journalist.

...so true, this message MUST BE POUNDED into the MSM (ABCNNBC_BS/NYT/WT/LAT:), every time they "soil" the American people w/their anti-american/pro-marxist opinions.

Thank You
