Our Scary-Important Allies, Part 5,347

Okay, this protest is in Britain, and the British, as a nation, are our allies, of course.

Still, this is the terrorist-lovin' mentality that's gripped much of Europe, in particular our "very important allies" France and Germany. There's no amount of diplomacy that can change the fact that many Europeans are not merely anti-US, but actively pro-Al Qaeda.

Screw you guys, I'm goin' home.

Thanks to GregS.

What a shock.

I'd like to say the feeling is reciprocated, but that isn't quite right. I think my feelings about the French can best be summed up with this kickass put-down from The Fountainhead. This is a paraphrase:

The Condescending Liberal Authoritarian said, "You don't think much of me, do you, Mr. Roarke?"

"I don't think of you," Roarke replied.

I didn't see Israel on the list. And, to be honest, I'm an Anglophile, or rather I was. I'm not sure the UK should be on the list. Yeah, they're with us, but only because of the convictions of a single man. I'd rather just write Tony Blair out a check than see dreary London ever again.

Australia-- fuck yeah.
