Soros?! I didn't know that! I just mailed mine. Oh well.

Like anybody in the US needs advice about who to vote for in dangerous times from a country whose a$$ we had to save in two world wars because their naivite prevented them from dealing with the dangers themselves - the reply should be two words - "Neville Chamberlain"........

If you guys want to get your own back on the Guardian - write an email to the Telegraph. ok how about this The email address for letters to the editor is dtletters@telegraph.co.uk

Hi there from Missouri USA! I hear you are a much better paper the the Guardian. I thought I would e-mail you because there must be some sensible people left somewhere in England. I hear that "other" paper wants to mail some voters here. Let me just get one thing clear, we love your help, you have always been our friend. Maybe it is us who has changed maybe not.

On November 2 over half this country is going to re-elect George W. Bush. One of the things we love best about Bush is that he doesn't give a crap how you "feel". We love him because he doesn't care how Hollywood feels or how anybody in this world feels. That is exactly why we are going to vote for him. Go cry to the U.N. , they say they care how you "feel".

We all know that England in its long history has done much for this world and its brave people have suffered much. We do think about that and this American thanks you. This time we thank you again for your troops and we understand if you want to pull them out. It is OK with us. Our sons and daughters will fight on. In November when the people of America make it clear to the world that we support our president, all we ask is that you get the hell out of the way. Don't impede the values of freedom that you once treasured so deeply. That other paper wants to write our voters, can you imagine how much of a drag it would be if over half of America filled your postal system with letters.

Let's don't be speechless. Let's hit them with requests for addresses. I just got one for some poor soul in Springfield that I am going to send a very short nice note to - handwritten.

[trentk]

And the Euros wonder why the world no longer takes them seriously.

[trentk]

Do you think that Guardian readers are willing to pay the tax hikes lurking in John (I've got a plan)Kerry's plans?

[You Dirty Rats]

One voter in Clark County, Ohio has more say about who the next President of the United States is than the entire population of the European Union.

Sucks to be irrelevant, eh, Euros?

[MarcoPolo]

To the rest of the world I say:

This is OUR country. It doesn't belong to you. You have no say in it; you have no right to it, and we are better off without your input. If we want to be a socialist or communist state like you we'll do it ourselves with NO help from you. And I hope to the Almighty God that we never, never do that.

We don't vote in your elections, so stay out of ours. End of story, no questions asked, point blank---BUTT OUT!

[Condor51]

What is this big thing that is going to happen to the europeans if Bush wins and Kerry doesn't or vice versa? I just don't get their reasoning.

Well, apparently the secret memo has leaked which states that if Dubya wins, on Jan 23rd 2005 we're going to launch a massive nuclear strike and turn all of Europe, including GB, into a wasteland - except for Poland, Italy and Romania that is (we're giving Tony Blair warning so he can skip to Canada for a visit). Then along with our allies and Russia we'll divvy up all the land for ourselves and give what was once France to 'the joooos' so they can move there after the radiation levels drop and leave the desert to the Arabs.

It's a shame the memo leaked, it's a good plan.

~~ stupid euro-weenie mocking off ~~

[Charlespg]

whats the the email for the press complaint board in england ?

[Stellar Dendrite]

Thanks, I will do just that.

[Rollee]

You should send your "reply letter" anyway. I bet yours uses the same words as mine does. Mine starts "Dear Wankers..."

[Beckwith]

uNFUCKINBELIEVABLE!

[mewzilla]

Oh, who cares what these particular Brits think. We're Americans and they AIN'T. I can live with that :)

[kaktuskid]

I just received several emails from the Guardian with Ohio voter's addresses. I am sending the folks in OHIO a copy of the email the Guardian sent me explaining how this fradulent scam works.

Dear Guardian:

My response to you (in Irish terms) - FECK OFF!

[Calpernia]

Unfreaken believable!

[backhoe]

That's truly disgusting... OK, in one of those "let's let the World vote in US elections" posts, I suggested tongue-in-cheek that it was OK by me, so long as America could vote in theirs.

Maybe it's time to start interfering in their elections.
