Former British motto: "God and my right"

Current British motto: more Soma and government cheese, please. Don't rock the boat - all the government handouts will fall out!

Alternative current motto: We're damp and miserable and sulky.

Do NYT readers represent this entire country? Well, no...See what I'm getting at? This says more about this rag's readers than it does their entire nation :)

Re: Bean.

We owe you?

Screw that. Rowan Atkinson's 'Bean' is the first installment of payback for one of your lot killing Lennon. You wait until you see his 'Johnny English'.

Now that's an hour and a half of my life I'm never getting back...

Cripes - we got Yoko Ono for our sins.

We've been paying. We're still paying. What more do you want?

Don't try to put football over on me - I went to an indoor arena game and spent the entire game watching the Sabrekittens, so I plead no contest, on the whole.

But you have to admit that arriving at a 0-0 tie after investing 90 minutes of your time is pretty damn depressing, Premiere league or not. Might as well watch Golf or Yacht racing.

That’s the beauty of football you are sweating right to the end, that is probably why we have violence at the game.

Watch your team try over and over again for that elusive goal, its like a certain ahem where you get close , closer and then at the last minute nothing, its that tension and at the end of the game you are either relieved or totally frustrated.

Cheers Tony

We want you to take Madonna back. Please. We don't care where she goes, just get her out of here.

Only then will your reperations be finally paid.

Rugby?

Let's see - take European football and American football, mix, remove all protective gear, and let the Australians play it too?

That's just crazy.

Well, on second thought maybe it does let the Maori work off their aggressions, so perhaps it isn't all bad.

You just gave me a great idea.

I'm buying a friend a couple blue soccer balls for Christmas!

Don't think you're getting rid of Madonna without accepting Elton John in return.

hopefully you don't take the comments personally. Many of us actually do love and respect britain and its contributions to western civilization. We just hate liberals and the press. Hopefully, my wife and I will be able to tour your great country someday (preferably before the dollar crashes as it will be very expensive then).

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.

Usually I dont.

I guess because of the deaths of those three black watch soldiers being killed south of Falluja.

They were there at the request of the American military as support to the main assaults.

Usually these threads can be fun, but it seems obscene to be involved in a flame war when British and American lads will be taking part in an assault which God Forbid may involve heavy casualties.

Damnit! I thought we'd got rid of him for good.

Right, we'll reluctantly take Elton back in exchange for Madge, but the minute your back is turned, I'm booking Gwenyth Paltrow and Chris Martin on the first flight I can find.

Just as the NY times doesn't speak for all Americans, this rag doesn't speak for all Brits.

This is a "Divide and Conquer" piece. Nothing more, nothing less.
