Speaking as a Brit, I have always found Americans to be, generally, a friendly, good natured, pleasant nation.
But reading this thread, I'm not so sure.
Some of you should be ashamed of yourselves.
i would much prefer Freepers kept their disdain limited to the French. We can hate liberals and the press but unfortunately these comments cast all Brits as the slimy SOBs that wrote the article for the paper. And the Brits that I have met are nice. I guess the liberals and press are the just as bad over there as they are here. Please don't take it personally.
