er Blythe Danner was English. She IS part English in that sense. Like Churchill was part American

Ned Kelly, the Irishmen who was oppressed by the Brits, is just fine. He shall remain my avatar for the time being.

You've got the most colossal chip on your shoulder over the British. Are you a big fan of Mel Gibson by any chance?

Blythe Danner was (or is, unless she died recently) English? Are you sure bout that?

Oops! My pardon, Danner was also 100% American. So Gwyneth is NOT part English, although she lives in the UK, and is married to a Brit.

So one could say old Gwynie has got a little English in her from time to time? :P

Oppressed for being a criminal, nice one Ned!

One more British misrepresentation.

They declared war on Ned for god's sake.

Had someone seen fit to remove the Ayatollah well before he set foot in Iran, or even before he left in the first place, none of the subsequent shiite would have happened.

If Carter had been "a little more respectful" he would have been lynched.

Lovely.

Assassinating the Ayatollah would have helped our reputation in the muslim would for generations. I really like your thinking, Mike.

Yeah.

You Brits really do not appreciate how the victims of your Empire's injustice and racism feel about you. Your empire is gone, but your smugness, arrogance and racism largely remain.

Ned, you want some tomato ketchup to go with your chips?

An American lecturing us on smugness, arrogance and racism! Well f**k me!

Actually Ned, they're all pretty cool, apart from the American pseudo-Irish who seem to, as I have already stated, have a chip on their shoulder. Your type found it quite acceptable to openly back the IRA until terrorism was no longer quite so en vogue.

Actually the UK and RoI get on perfectly well nowadays, but then again, having absolutely nothing to do with either nation, you wouldn't know now, would you?

[Kuciwalker]

In your case it's worse, PH, since you have no good reason to be smug or arrogant...

[Ned]

You Brits are definitely on the right track, in my view. Blair's giving Wales and Scotland their own legislatures is one step in the right direction. Had you done this aeons ago with the US and not so long ago with the Irish, things might have worked out differently.

[Dauphin]

It is peculiar that Ned hates the Englanders on this board, despite the fact that most of the Englanders on this board had no connection with the actions performed by peoples over 100, 50 or even 20 years before and which have no observable negative consequences to his life today in any event. Ho humm.

[Dauphin]

Would you tell us please Ned, did you know someone killed on Bloody Sunday or some equivalent action? If you did I will amend my final comment about observable negative consequences.
