Well, I did like Cameron but not after insulting the U.S. like that -- and on 9/11 too!! Then he tries to get out of it with a backhanded compliment. Sorry, I lived in England for eight years and that was an insult! Not that Brown will be any better...he will definitely move left and tax the living heck out of the Brits. Brown loves and lives to tax.
Yes, I lived there for a couple years in the 90's and I got so tired of hearing how much more sophisticated the Brits were about foreign policy. From my experience, I'd take the American diplomatic corps over the British any day. Our guys are smarter and have a bigger picture.
The Brits still like to think of themselves as Athens to our Rome. We produce more Nobel Prizes than they do in every category and yet they still cling to this belief.
