Ball-less Brits.

You obviously don't know anything about history. The British have more balls than any other country in the last 500 years. Read their history, and then apologize to the Brit on this thread.

Most recently, PM Tony Blair, Laborite that he is, was the only foreign leader present for Bush's 9/14/2001 speech before the joint Houses of Congress - the darkest hour in most American's lifetimes. And it was British troops that took and held southern Iraq for years, saving the U.S. troops in northern Iraq, and getting bombed in the process. Read, learn, and think about it, before you make such an idiot comment against our best ally again.

We certainly have a lot of ball-less Americans. I think the Viet Cong got John McCain’s for example. You do wish— don’t you?—that Britains still retained more of their ancient English liberties? (The right to defend yourself, the right to a jury (being lost to the EU), the right to kick Muslims over the cliffs of Dover, etc.)

So you are saying that there aren’t any ball-less Brits any where in Britain? That the Brit Olympic Committee members aren’t ball-less? How about the Archbishop of Canterbury? LOL!

All I will say on the issue of the presidential elections is that from what I’ve seen, McCain Oven-Chips is my prefered candidate. He’s a conservative but not an ideologue. That’s the way I like them....

Actually I don't see why this is such an issue.

You want to go to a foreign country to play sports - then play sports and leave the politics to the politicians.

You don't go as a guest to someone's house and complain about how they are raising their kids - tempting as that might be at times.

BTW there are several in this forum who just love to knock the Brits - whatever the subject.

Natives like me learn to ignore them...LOL!

Apologize for what? Speaking their minds? Obviously you have never spent any time at any British sites, have you? Americans are regularly ripped, and it would be considered a good day if the only thing that they called us was “ball-less.” You grovel and pander to the British, the rest of us have better things to do with our time.

Oh, by the way my degree is in European History. They may have had a glorious history, but their progeny are whining, miserable nitwits, and totally useless to anyone including themselves.

Thank you for your support of us Brits on this thread mate. Its good to know that there are some decent Americans on this website. To be honest, the level of anti-Brit vitriol on this website is becoming ridiculous. I’m seriously considering quitting this site altogether as I refuse to see the point in debating with people who so readily dismiss the only country to have fully stood by the US since 9/11 in Iraq and Afghanistan.

It’s disgusting considering the sacrifice of British troops in recent years. But hey, I suppose as they’re not American they don’t count for anything.
