Re: How "bad off" are Americans?

So why get so upset when an American generalize about the British? Its ok to say our boys are getting killed because of Americans, but its not ok to say Americans are getting killed because of Brits? They are both there, both goverments voted to go, agree or disagree with the decision it was not follow my leader. Tony Blair does not have the overiding vote. Reading to much S*n and Daily Mail does cloud your judgement. I would be insulted as a British citizen if I thought that my goverment was so downtrodden that they had to follow another countries decisions and couldn't make its own. It would prove one of two things, the UK is the poor relation and can longer look at its self as any kind of player on the world stage, some what like Sweden, or the people who vote are so easily led they belieive everything they are told and never question the source. Niether of which is true, so why blame everyone else, stand up and take some responsibilty for what is in truth a sad and unmanagable situation.
