Why is it I knew you would down the USA! Tony Blair Labour Party Liberal from UK! AHHAAHHA :devil:

Sure, for the most part - though most countries have their *rough* spots.

Reading comprehension problems again it seems... No surprise there. I'm just sorry the public school system in your home country seems to have failed you so badly.

And for clarification - the UK Labour party are actually centre-right. Not "Liberal".

:lol:

He does seem to have adapted to the far right very well. Rumor has it that he's delivering the Keynote at the G.O.P. National Convention!

America is too restrictive, too religious and too many lies a.k.a marketing. Other than that its not bad at all :)

Here is my story. I've lived problem free life, payed my taxes. One day I decided to marry this girl. But to do so would require her to come to US of A, and so it started. My problem free live turned in to free problems from USCIS! Sure things turned to unsure, certain dates turned to aproximation within months. All logical thinking was out the door, as I filed my papers withing famous Vermont Centre!

Where do you vote in UK or USA? :unsure:

number 6 doesn't vote!!

No I vote - but there are more than two parties.

Well... the UK

I thought we'd already established that I can't vote in the US with: "Oh yeah, you can't vote - :rofl:"

If you can cope with the restrictions that seem to come with the nation of freedom, then the US is a fabulous place. :thumbs:

Just out of curiosity, how many of you guys think the American lady who is playing basketball for the Russians is 'unpatriotic'?

Refusing to use the spellchick!

I have put you on ignore. No really, I have, but you are still ruining my enjoyment of this site. .

Montreal makes 'em better... but let that not reduce the quality of NYC bagels... those are divine too.

Wishing you ten-fold that which you wish upon all others.
