I am no longer astonished by any article chronicling the utter collapse of British reason. Its sad. Someday society will use Britain as a textbook example of an empire that killed itself.So very many here in America are breathlessly eager to follow suit....we've just elected a Marxist cokehead to the White House and we're having a a huge slice of Socialism jammed down our throats, masquerading as a 'stimulus package'. If Britain is a textbook example, it seems we aren't reading the book.
"sigh"
We aren't reading the book at all. Obama is reading the communist manifesto, and half of America is watching American Idol and eagerly awaiting their welfare checks. They would gladly sell American sovereignty and their independence for a government "job" and a handout. Then they can be eternally grateful to their saviors, the Democrats.
We are in the handbasket and driving towards hell, but still the British are the absolute champions of absurdity. I've never seen anything like it. Monty Python is more realistic than Britain today.
