Scratch the fourth verse.

It was written IIRC after WWII, to be substituted for verse 2, which the touchy-feelies thought was too "warlike."

". . . . don't let's be beastly to the Germans . . . "

Well, that explains it ... I always hated Steve Martin ... and never paid much attention to what he did. Thanks for the explanation, though.

Message to Al Qaeda -

So once again we see what a bunch of mincing nancy boys you are. You obviously can't fight the British Army, you can't fight the police, you can't even fight Tony Blair - you have to pick on an old woman in her 70's.

I have bad news for you - there is more guts and courage in that magnificent old lady than in your entire rancid, putrid, disgusting organisation. You are cowards, you are bastards and you are evil. All you will do is inflame the rest of us who will rally around her, and rip your collective guts out of your chests and stuff them down your ignorant throats.

And when we've done that, we're going to write the real history of this time, painting you as a bunch of frustrated camel humping queer boys that posterity will laugh at for centuries to come.

PS - f*** you.

Yours sincerely, Ivan

The ceremonial nature of her role tends to obscure the fact that the Queen is a very disciplined and hard-working woman. We will miss her virtues when/ if her son succeeds her.

I have long admired the Queen. She has an unerring sense of duty that she has always put ahead of her personal life. She wisely put her husband in charge of their familly ... as she believed that he duty would always have to come first. Those who criticize her should stop to realize that she was a modern career woman before that became cool. HM deserves our respect.

Muslims do not respect weakness........only strength.

Muslims do not respect anything ... they fear strength.

Just like Maggie Thatcher, the Queen Mother is one of the only ones left in England who has any BULLOCKS!

I regret to inform you the Queen Mother is dead.

She passed away in April 2002.

Correction, March 30th 2002..

Do you suppose she should invite Prince Charles to dinner so he can lecture her on how mean she is to Muslims?

[pau1f0rd]

she'd find herself de-queened fairly quickly

I know where you're coming from, but if I believed that the Queen's powers were illusory I'd want to get rid of them. The fact is that the Queen DOES have these powers, and she is legally entitled to exercise them. Whether the public would support her or not is just conjecture. I'm sure you can imagine scenarios where the public would back her against Parliament.

[Canard]

"I'm sure you can imagine scenarios where the public would back her against Parliament."

I can, but those scenarios pretty much have to involve a collapse of our existing constitutional arrangements. If the powers were used, it would be in defiance of a democratically elected government, if that was with public support, we're basically talking popular revolution and overturning of our existing constitutional arrangements. In which case, the existence of the monarchs powers is fairly incidental - if they didn't exist, we'd just burn down the House of Commons ourselves.

The Muslims are the enemy. Wade into them. Spill their blood. Shoot them in the belly.

We're not just going to shoot the bastards. We're going to cut out their living guts and use them to grease the treads of our tanks. We're going to murder those lousy Muslim bastards by the bushel.

We're going to hold onto the Muslims him by the nose, and we're gonna kick him in the ass. We're gonna kick the hell out of him all the time, and we're gonna go through him like crap through a goose!

Isn't everyone with a thinking brain an enemy of Islam, as well as other totalitarian religions? Wait a minute.....I can't think of another totalitarian religion. Matter of fact, I can't think of another organization that has as a basic tenet the choice of conversion or death for non members. Maybe Islam is not a religion at all....DOH!

[He Rides A White Horse]

they fear strength.

I stand corrected.

I know, I know. You are the 4th person to inform me of this. As a Yank I just don't have knowledge of the finer points of Royal titles and such.

[Rastus]

Are you gonna come into my tent
Are you gonna ever take a hint
Are you gonna lay down on the ground
Fat bottomed goats
You make the Muslim world go round

I was worshipping my god
Contemplating a jihad
When I heard a strange sound from up behind
Turned around and there was Willie
He was such a naughty billy
Heap big woolly
You made a sultan out of me

Now get this
Are you gonna come into my tent
Are you gonna ever take a hint
Are you gonna lay down on the ground
Fat bottomed goats
You make the Muslim world go round

Get on your goats and ride!
Ride 'em, Kahlid!
