Something the Hijack
Lordy, Lordy, Lordy...

Here is the front page of a bizarre website.

Whereas, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Tony Blair, has vigorously supported the United States in the disarmament of Iraq;

Whereas, the United Kingdom is a strong and loyal ally to the United States;

Whereas, Prime Minister Tony Blair has committed substantial military forces of the United Kingdom to the current action in Iraq;

The American people extend their heartfelt thanks to Prime Minister Tony Blair for his courage and leadership; and

Extend their deep appreciation to the United Kingdom and the men and women of its armed forces.

Click Here to Thank Tony

2. That's Disturbing

In the UK we have a parliamentary democracy not a personality cult as some of the people who have sent messages seem to think.

It would be more appropriate for these people to send thanks to the UK military if they feel the need to to thank anyone.

4. Some of those messages are horrendously disrespectful of true democracy!

You are a true hero to the American people. Don't ever doubt it. We will always be as one with England. I wish you good luck with that rowdy Parliament of yours.

- Washington, USA


Yeah, right. A way to take us back a few centuries, and spit on the graves of all who fought to establish parliamentary democracy in the face of the 'Divine Right of Kings'.

5. The US of A would benefit mightily from a rowdy opposition right now ...
... rather than one a little too fond of rolling over to have its tummy tickled.
