Thanks, too, for...Thanks, Mark. Yes, I thought so.<br /><br />Thanks, too, for the references to the FDR/New Dealers article.<br /><br />The elephant in the room on this issue is the little matter of Pearl Harbo(u)r.<br /><br />Unless one is prepared to say that this was a conspiracy got up by the New Dealers, it's not easy to blame FDR for going to war with the Axis powers in such circumstances.<br /><br />There's quite a lot more hogwash in what Anonymous says.<br /><br />When the "Muzzies" take over in Europe, the Hispanics will have taken over in the USA and Anonymous and his type may well also be history.<br /><br />The "Empire of Greed" is an expression better used of the Dollar Empire set up by the US government to enrich already wealthy US businessmen. <br /><br />Conversely, the British Empire was a net cost to the British people both financially and in human terms since we sent colonial adminstrators out to remote parts to share the hardships of the people we governed - something the US money-makers conspicuously do NOT do.<br /><br />It is particularly laughable for a Yank to attack the Queen as an heretic when every single US President that ever was has been much more so, not least the present incumbent.<br /><br />For sheer hypocrisy that takes the prize.<br /><br />It is possibly only just beaten by a resident of NY City complaining about bad behaviour - this from a city that is notorious for crime, murder and mayhem just as much as any in the UK.<br /><br />But - hey! - being an Anonymous Yankee dumb ass means never having to admit that you might be wrong!Tribunushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17330137792269530812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1062692702190792942.post-70367702030528859182009-06-17T01:17:32.153+01:002009-06-17T01:17:32.153+01:00Just a point of clarification, my comment 'Wel...Just a point of clarification, my comment 'Well said' (above), was in response to the original post, not to the comment by 'Anonymous'.<br /><br />The comments of 'Anonymous' are a little humorous, however crude they may be, but it is not fair to say we were 'tricked' by the British, when in fact Roosevelt had been doing his best to get us into the war for years. Read "The New Dealer's War: FDR and the War Within the War" for some insight into this. It may be appropriate to say we were 'tricked' by FDR, in cahoots with Churchill.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12516022366036700901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1062692702190792942.post-32417050087288457512009-06-17T00:41:05.127+01:002009-06-17T00:41:05.127+01:00Thanks, Mark.

He makes my point for me - and demonstrates the ugliness of a particular type of Yankee bigot far better than by anything I might add.<br /><br />"Open-hearted" he ain't!

Your reptilian ancestors tricked us open-hearted Yanks to spill our blood in 2 World Wars for save your Empire of Greed, and the throne of your silly heretic queen. I wouldn't spill a drop of American Sweat for the UK, never mind blood! Never again, you're on you're own...<br /><br />P.S. I live in NYC, I see Brits all the time, and they are the most grotesque pack of slack-jawed louts in have ever seen. Positively classless alcoholic monkeys.
