Weirdly enough, I almost agree with you here. Today's news of the opposition leader in Zimbabwe giving up in the face of Mugabe's brutal murderous tactics is saddening, sick and disheartening. Mugabe is as vile as they come. I read today (Sunday) in the NY Times that one female opposition leader was so badly mutilated by Mugabe's goons that her brother could only identify her by her braided hair and clothing, her face was gone. Vicious, horrid, animalistic.

Meanwhile, Western oil companies are busy dividing the carcass of Iraq's former society like rapacious hyenas- no-bid contracts and all. Stinks to high heaven, like a lot of world news lately.

Gordon needs a Carla Bruni to jazz it up. Uh, probably not gonna be.

Does drink also make you forget what you've said just five minutes before?

British public, I urge you to vote someone else in to run the country, NOW!

There's an election?

We started to grumble about a Labour P.M., voted him out,
then got 11 years of ugly racist lying neo-conservative government.

John Major wasn't Labour.

Sorry .. I am in Australia.

By the way, if you Brits could get a PM's wife who's a wildly sexual man-eater and supermodel like Carla Bruni, the world's gossip press would appreciate it, thanks.

Ps. I actuallly adore Carla Bruni. Femme fatale for days, she's so James Bond. So camp in her tweeds and flat (Dior!) shoes when meeting the Queen.

She really wants to be Marie Antoinette, and I'm secretly rooting for her. Maybe she'll get rid of fat schlubby Sarkozy and establish a constitituional monarchy in France, famously a de facto gynocracy. She should go all out in this atttempt. I propose a Brunacracy for France, with utmost seriousness.

Sorry for being a white male, by the way. It appears that the government considers that to be a crime these days. ABSOLUTELY SCANDALOUS.

Please do explain, I am trying to parse your meaning. What did I say differently? And it's probably more like a week before, not 5 minutes. And what do you have against sexy villainesses for First Lady?

And congratulations on inventing such a supremely terrible name- Vaffanculo sounds like flaff, naff, and pfaff!- feathery and lightweight. We all know what "culo" means- are you really calling yourself an asshole?

It really wouldn't have taken you more than, ooh, 30 seconds to nip back to page one and save yourself further embarrassment, but your verbose typing fingers obviously kick in before your remnants of a brain tries to function.

Pour one for me now won't you...

Oh, and vaffanculo

"vaffanculo" is some cursing in Italian!

I was wondering where I'd heard that before. Now I remember - it was in the pub during the Italy v Spain match and one Italian guy sitting near me shouted it whenever Luca Toni lost the ball... which of course was very often.

Totally agree with this! I know what you all mean about Gordon Brown. I also, don't think much of him either. But Can any of you remember when the Conservatives were in power?

Firstly, Maggie Thatcher was a "milk snatcher" then John Major decided that all Hospital Operation lists would be two years long in waiting! Imagine that now????

I also don't think much of David Cameron either!

Bring back Maggie. We had a country to be proud of then.

Some did. Far too many didn't.

I've never voted Conservative (apart from Boris) in my life but I'll be cheering them on come election night 2010. Labour had a mandate in 1997 but squandered it sucking up to hedge fund managers and foreign billionaires and I can't wait to see the social engineering freaks booted out one by one. I'm sorry but as the link I included above shows, when the government advocates discrimination against white males there is something very wrong in the state of Albion. And I haven't even mentioned the war.....
