    I personally do not.

    the wt focus on the Anglo-American dual world power is bs. I believe that the feet made of iron and clay is actually the final united world government headed by the beast. Not a joint Union of the USA AND UK.

    I love the British. I am not too fond of the Scotts and Welsh (except for a select few) but overall I find the English to be quite engaging. I am planning another trip there for next year. Look out London Town.

    There is an affinity, but we are distinctly two different countries with very different laws and social norms.

    what really holds us together is our disdain for the French

    You caught me! I assumed I would be properly chastised by my French friends.

    The French saved our butts during the the Revolutionary War. Not to even mention how fond I am of Grand Marnier.

    I am also very jealous of your use of nuclear energy.

    You guys are like the embarassing Uncle we'd rather forget about.

    Oh wait, that was when Bush was in the White House.

    Coq au vin is even more to be envied than nuclear energy, IMO

    Yes but let's be honest, did we do it for you or just to annoy the Brits ?

    There you go, putting doubts in my head. Hmm. That is a plausible alternate theory, I think.

    A signifigant portion of my ancestry comes from there, so I guess I do have more than a passing interest.

    Americans in general? Some, although I'd guess that most couldn't locate the British Isles on a map.

    Of course, they're the second half of the binary Angloamerican world power as predicted in the book of Revelation
