# Did you see
that Dubya Bush Snr said that atheists souldn't have the right to be American citizens?
How scary is that?

# Mmm, a theocracy with guns
Yes, I'll take two of those please. That scares me more than most of the stuff he's said.

# Ah bollocks,

# So he doesn't mind what you believe in,
as long as you believe in something....

Ah well, apparently it's tourists that make England shit. Oh no wait, maybe Prince Philip was right...

# I can't believe that!
When did he say this? I want to find a news report. Maybe he will create an American equivalent of the Spanish Inquisition.

# His dad said the same thing
back in '87 he said 'I don't know that Atheists should be considered as citizens, nor should they be considered patriots. This is one nation under God.'"
How did he get away with that?

# Yeah, yeah, see above,
me stupid: duh. Me a twat.

# ahhh,
so it was only his dad that said it? Still, if his dad said it, you can only think that his thickie son is also a supporter of this wonderful idea.

# How the British Work
1 pint "Bitterness over lost global influence"
2 measures of Curry
1.5 cups of "Irrational fondness of an outdated Monarchy"
stir in 70% "whining"

Simmer in "Splendid EU Monetary Isolation"
Sprinkle with "Inability to project a meaningful foreign policy any further than the Lake District"

Serve with "two-faced self-righteousness" made possible only through the sure knowledge
that someone else will do all the work, pay all the bills, and get none of the credit

Sip gently as you are ignored as ineffectual, slightly eccentric and generally useless.

PS: We saved your collective asses twice in the 20th century - next time, we're keeping it.

There, doesn't that feel good?

# Very nice
demonstration of a chip/shoulder intersection there.

It was quite funny right up until the last line, but you blew it. My comiserations you jingoistic fuckwit commendations on your astounding level of insight.

Hang on... twice?. You mean... 1966? Geoff Hurst was an american?!?!?! Noooooo.....

# Geoff Hurst - Krufty Virginian
Not just an american. A bona-fide backwoods Virginian, a hatchet-equipped, scent-enhanced, consonant-dropping Virginian.

Now be good.

# I don't recall
shooting our own troops, which the Americans seem very good at in every recent conflict.

Oh and don't believe the movies (U571 for example), you're just like the sub put on at the end of the game and claiming to have won it even though you're team were 50 - 5 ahead.
You're not better than the Brits, there's just more of you stupid enough to get in the way.

# I don't recall
any Brits picking up guns, being as they were too busy hiding under their couches, sucking lollies and mewling for their old schoolmarms to come give them proper spankings.

Oops, did I say that?

It's OK, don't worry, nobody is expecting you to do anything, just stay home and tend your gouty foot, Mr. Brittania and slurp down a few more (Imperial) gallons of marmite. Bloop!

And if you taunt me again, I shall become even more of a jingoistic fuckwit.

This was a rather silly thread to start out with, anyhoo.
