Personally, I'm becoming quite bored with this nonsense.

Anyone care to start an interesting argument? One thing that intrigues me is how the yanks can bear to listen to their head of state. Every time he appears on the tele' I cringe with embarrassment. Which, considering his election in no way reflects on me, is something I can't explain.

Not to put too fine a point on it, he is obviously a simpleton.  I trust he isn't being allowed to play with anything dangerous, but even as a figurehead he clearly isn't up to it. How are Americans reacting? His only saving grace seems to be his abysmal ignorance. If a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, then young George is at least safe on that account.

I've got to be honest, our little Johnnie Howard isn't exactly anything to write home about either, but that fellow Bush hasn't got the brains of a sheep. How on earth does a retard like that get elected to high office?
