Greetings, all ....
« on: July 09, 2009, 07:39:12 PM »
Hello ... I'm 'Drummond', a British-born Londoner who's lived his entire life in England, mostly in London.

I'm staunchly Conservative in my values, and a great admirer of the brand of Conservatism which Margaret Thatcher brought to us here in the UK. This makes me the British equivalent of a Reaganite, as well as being a natural supporter of ex-President Bush.

I view Obama's win with - said he, understating the case ! - great trepidation. GW Bush was massively underrated in my view, and very badly let down by the US's media and by American public opinion overall. I do not - repeat, do not - even begin to fault the War on Terror which he patriotically fought for the benefit of America and the free world.

America is a truly great country whose very soul is today threatened by the Democrat agenda, the likes of which I don't think the world truly understands.

... enough said !! I'm looking forward to a lively time here !!!

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

Hi again .. thanks to all for your greetings - much appreciated !

To the poster asking about MG car parts .. I'm sorry, but cars aren't my subject. Better luck next time ..

As for 'El Presidente' showing distain for Brits .. well ... I'm not exactly going to lose any sleep over what that Leftie thinks ! And in the meantime, Gordon Brown can enjoy himself trying to play the set of Region 1 DVD's that BHO gave him in his Region TWO machine ...

You live anywhere near Canterbury or Gloucester or Lerwick?

You don't have to be specific; internet security, you know.

But just a general vague ambiguous idea.

And welcome.

A geographic oddity here.

On a map, in the pages of an atlas, Nebraska looks larger than Kansas.

Actually, Kansas is as large as England, Wales, Scotland, and Ulster all put together.  Nebraska is only as large as England and Scotland put together.
