Example?
Britain and the US have always had an arms length affair since the War of 1812........
But I've encountered a number of British FReepers here. WHy wouldn't you be welcome?
What are you talking about? I've never seen any anti-brit statement the couple of months I've been here.
I haven't seen it either, do you have a link?
Maybe some people got mad about the recent mirror UK covers?
Please stay.
Please also ignore The Guardian. It's THOSE types of Brits whom we knock aroud just as we do our idiots here in the good ole' US of A.
Cheers!
It's not all Brits that we bash, just the liberal ones who attack our president.
Actually I've only seen people react to the British headline claiming that millions of Americans are dumb.
It was the Guardian with "Operation Ohio" that started it. Nothing pisses off an American like somebody telling us how we should vote "for the safety of the world."
Well I love the brits. Hate the anti-American ones but love the rest!
I think you're talking about the anti-brit feelign when they started sending us letters right?
That's over already
It's how I treat Americans too BTW. ;-)
Good luck you are not French!. HAHAHAHA. I haven't heard anything about brits.
The most Brit-bashing I saw was in response to the Guardian e-mail campaign against President Bush. For the most part, Brits have been welcomed & respected.
Maybe you should talk to Ivan, check to see if he's found the site to be Brit-bashing.
Now if you're French...it's open season. ;)
Oh, if your talking about that Guardian letter affair, the Guardian should have known better. You and your country should be pissed at them for meddling and not as us for responding. If we did the same thing to Britain you know what we would have been told so get over it.
I like Brit but he has to answer for his kissy-butt with Susan Estrich as she tried to dance around the facts, reporting talking points from the Kerry campaign as serious unbiased analysis after it looked like Ohio was lost.
Brit, you messed up big time. Come off the fence a little. I know you had a national audience (Fox affilaites were carrying Brit and gang)..
hehe...sorry to hijack the thread...
I like the Brits. I have chosen England as my next vacation destination because of Blaiir's support for the US and the prez. FReegards.
Anglophile checking in.
Heck, if you guys wanted to join a real union, we'd give you four Senators. A Senator is more lordly than any British Lord- you'll love having Senators. Gosh, they're a sight to see, when us lowly types are privileged enough to see one. When they're not in jail of course.
I too haven't seen any Brit bashing. The US has no greater allie than the Brits!
