No it isn't! If there's one thing the Americans know how to do, it's politics. British politicans are pussy cats my comparison.

Exactly!! Can you see the Tories or Labour pulling off such a bold move? They can elect a puppet who is stands completely against everything that most Americans stand for and manage to convince them that it's a good idea. Could British politicans convince the British people that handing money to their rich buddies and troting off on an elective war is a good idea? It's easy when you convince them that the alternative will take away your guns, hold gay weddings in every church and every pregency will be terminated.
Now THATS politics!

American politics is fascinating, because what they decide, the Brits always follow, whether it's a Tory or a New Labour species of Tory in 10 Downing Street.
Cut out the middleman, don't bother with British politics, just get involved in American politics!

Indeed it is, take the case of former Georgia senator Max Cleland (Democrat). He's a Vietnam vet who lost BOTH LEGS AND AN ARM in Vietnam. When he ran for reelection the Republicans portrayed him as being unpatroitic and ran ads featuring Cleland and bin Laden. He lost THREE f***ing LIMBS FOR HIS COUNTRY!!!
Cleland lost the election BTW.

That's covered in the Al Franken book I recommended on the other Bolshie thread tonight. The Republican attack adds also threw in pictures of Saddam as well as Osama. The Republican who won got out of Vietnam with a minor medical complaint, similarly to an amusingly huge number of America's foremost conservative politicians and media commentators from Bush and Rush Limbaugh downwards
