 In my travels
I have found the British to be quite good people, and Hollywood takes no captives, I see them as likely to paint the Russians as the evil guys who have peculiar English accent since few can really depict the Russian accent and it be understandable to the average guy on the street. Actually, until the Bush debacles this kind of resentment for Americans was not seen on here, at least not in the number of posts and hanging on of almost every well written Brit. I have been watching the board for years and I cannot remember such. Not to mention I get PMs from guys who would like to join in but fear the backlash and the sheer guts it takes to take you guys on in a written debate. It is not just here but across all the continents that the Americans, are not as likely to venture away from home with the present sentiment world wide. Often, due to Bush or American policies which often, most American do not approve of themselves thus, the revolt to a black president bent in restoring the the American place in the world. Obama will win, based on the need for Change only. He has no record, nothing he has ever really done, yet the voice of change that he preaches in his Martin Luther king oratory takes on the crowds wishing for a real change in Washington and the world.
So, I get PM's and emails about how they feel but most afraid to venture to take the chance of getting into it with those who, over the years have sharpened their written debate. So, I am not alone, I am just he only one with guts enough to say what I think.
