stamp thatcher
Love the Stamp Act. It was a driving force in uniting the Colonies to form the USA. Thank you very much for the nudge.

Hate Margaret Thatcher. Not for her policies, but her ovaries. She will be referenced ad nauseum in our next presidential election as a reason why we should elect that shrieking bitch of a harpy, Hillary Clinton. A dastardly revenge you plotted, there.

How long have you been frightened of women?
Did something terrible happen to your father?

You hate people who have ovaries?
Do you also strangle small animals?

Hates women? A bit of a twat?
This is totally an Emvee comedy account.

I hate people with ovaries?
I thought I was fairly specific about two of them. Not an entire gender. My condolences to whomever it was that tried to teach you reading comprehension.

You said, and I quote:
'Hate Margaret Thatcher. Not for her policies, but her ovaries.'

That's you going Full Emvee, right there.

If for, example I said 'hate Obama, not for his policies but the melanin in his epidermis'...
...you'd probably similarly conclude that I was massive racist.

Actually...
...does anyone outside the US of Uniteds understand or even care about A Merkin politics other than worrying whether they will go back to electing another semiliterate nutter likely to plunge the world into Armegeddon?

Just idly wondering.

You'd have got there eventually anyway.
the big point is that it was going to be very difficult for Britain to enforce controls in America. You guys wanted economic independence (which was far more of a motivator than 'freedom', or any of that gubbins), and there wasn't a lot the Brits could do to stop it, in the long run.

The fact is that Americans under the British Empire were earning far more money than Brits and paying far, far less in taxes. They just didn't really want to pay ANY once the British had got rid of the threat of the French and they saw no huge benefit from the relationship any more.

Anyway...

I'm a bit lost here
I'm assuming that you're ranting from a Republican perspective so lets just ask what might have happened if McCain had won with Palin as VP.

And then McCain had died in office.

As far as the rest of the civilised world was concerned, you'd have been fucked over. You'd immediately have lost all lines of credit and - in diplomatic terms - credibility. You'd have been left with an utterly hapless leader incapable of internal or external policy.

So - ovaries - Sarah Palin has 'em, to produce lots of ignoble offspring.

Then, of course, there are the very capable female Republicans (Rice, Albright, De Minta). Where do you stand with them?
