If Britain were to engage in something like the Iraq war, I'm sure the U.S. would give aid in all possible forms. It's a shame that more nations cannot get along the way we do. We still have our differences, but that doesn't hurt us.

---In reference to previous posts... I missed the chance to reply earlier.

Blair didn't just go along with Bush-he was,if anything more hawkish than Bush was regarding the invasion of Iraq.Britain,or any other country,doesn't need an ally who is going to launch wars that result in thousands of innocent civilian casualties however perhaps if Bush is removed from the Whitehouse then the US can once again join the commmunity of nations and become a country that other nations want to do business with.As long as he is in office however forget it-the more we distance ourselves from your country the better it will be for Britain.

Believe me, the plan at least for the most part is to get Bush removed from the whitehouse.The elections are not until November. But hopefully there will be some resolve after then. George Bush has a lot of powerful and sneeky people that work for and that are his friends. He's quite a sly ******* you know.

McBath,
I cannot honestly believe that you feel George W. Bush is a good president and that he would do weel if reelected.Do you know that his family is long time friends with the BinLaden's? Do you know that he didn't shut him up either, he just could care less about him. He wanted to finish what his father did not and partially because Sadaam threatened his fathers life at one point, but also because he has dreams of becoming a more powerfl dictator than Sadaam. Do you realize that George bush is trying to amend the constitution and trying to reverse the Roev.Wade decision. He is trying to take all sex ed out of school class rooms and on healthy sex websites because he thinks teaching abstinance is the way to go. I think maybe you should do some homework on him before go saying crap like this. All this doesn't even come close to what he's trying to do to destroy Alaske with hisAlaskan pipeline proposal. I'm sure you've heard of that if not why not check out some greenpeace websites or biogems. Give it go why don't you. As weel maybe go see Michael Moore's movie.

he hasnet done much lately,which Im glad about,ill be glad when someone catches him,kills him or in 6 to 10 years when he dies of old age.

I dont like moore,I dont really like green peace,what do you think kerry would do for us,cause all I hear about our presidents nowadays is *****ing on how they suck and they didnt do anything good for us.
and I dont think all of the ladens are like bin laden,if I remeber right bin gave up his family,and put his money into killing people.
