[Spiff]

Spiff if your ancestors were British, and you hate the British, it must make for some self-loathing eh?

Where did I say I "hate" the British? Heck, I don't even dislike them. I don't even have to try hard to tolerate them, despite their smug air of superiority. When it comes to American and British relations, all we should have to say is "World War II" and the British should say "Thank you, what do you need us to do?" That is a debt which will not soon be repaid, unless you think that living under Hitler's thumb would have somehow been preferable.

It always amazes me this argument. Why should Britain and the rest of the commonwealth apologise or kiss-ass because they fought Nazi Germany alone for two years when the rest of the world stood and watched?
