I loathe America, and what it has done to the rest of the world.

LOL!

Margaret Drabble says:   "We have seen enough boots in the past few months to last us a lifetime. Iraqi boots, American boots, British boots. Enough of boots."

Now you've crossed the line Maggie.

I have to keep reminding myself that if Bush hadn't been (so narrowly) elected, we wouldn't be here, and none of this would have happened.

I know, Margaret. The election was really very, very close, wasn't it?

Just a few more stolen votes and... ah, but what's the point in reopening those old wounds now? Still it must be terribly painful for you to reflect on how America might have taken a very different path that the one that has free two nations.

I imagine it eats away at you... makes it hard to sleep... sucks the joy out of your life by surfacing to torment you at odd moments.

At least I hope it does.

They woun't notice my being ugly, because I'll be too kick ass mean.

"About the only thing I agree on with this trollop:
I detest sentimental and violent Hollywood movies..."

Yes, especially the ones that tell lies about history.

[ozzymandus]

Another professional America-hater. Ah, jealousy, thy name is fugly old woman.

[LauraJean]

I love that picture as well. It seems to me that she bears more then a passing resemblence to our lovely First Lady Laura Bush.

Great post.

"If it wasn't for big mean Americans with cartoon characters painted on their tanks and bombers, she would be speaking German today, and wearing a swastika on her uniform."

That's probably why she's pissed.

Yup, she sounds just like the nasty head of the Secret Police, Fairy Hardcastle, in C.S. Lewis's That Hideous Strength.

Thanks.

Miss Thing hates us. She wants to rant.

That's ok. I hate her type just as much as she hates us and I can rant right back at 'em.

[fabriclady]

She can help herself by staying out of the greatest country on earth.
I care not what she feels or thinks.

[MEG33]

I wonder if she realizes she makes me feel better about America!

[slasher82]

Everyone BACK-OFF!! We are proud of her and she is the HOTTEST, sweetest little lefty ever born here in AR. I'd give my left something to be hers.

[moyden2000]

Arf.

[Prodigal Son]

I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for a person like Ms Drabble to acknowledge any other world view than the one to which she has sold her soul. She said it herself, she's diseased with her own hate. It's an affliction of the mind and spirit and it's terminal.

[slasher82]

Bill Clinton's true soul mate. Care for a "stogie"?

[Chong]

Oh geez, margie,

As old as you look, obviously, you've never experienced the ultimate womanly "feeling" by a man, have you. No wonder you are so frustrated and full of self pity. Poor thing, bless your wittle America loathing heart.......... NOT!!

[WaterDragon]

She's a nutcase, clearly.

But what's a "conservative" newspaper like the Telegraph giving space to such drivel?

I suspect it's because even among so-called conservative Brits there's a huge readership for anti-Americanism.

Really, the Telegraph should tout itself as the conservative/socialist newspaper.....not just as a "conservative" newspaper.

[MEG33]

I never expect a lefty to be deterred by the facts.I rather enjoy that her bile is exposed.
