#1 Interesting to see that this Guardian is being accused of anti-American editorial. I must say that I have never felt that way. Anti-Bush; yes. Anti-war; yes. And certainly highly partisan in favour of Kerry (or better yet Nader in many correspondents opinion) but not anti-American. Possibly anti- the CEOs of America Inc.. Still....it is quite a stupid thing to do in my opinion as a liberal British reader of the paper.

Just a sure fire way to irritate people and swing many towards doing the oposite to which the mpaper desires...just goes to show that despite the America-baiting prejudice of many of my UK peers, we are all just as capable of failing to think through our actions!

#2 Kitcar you think they are doing this because they like US? No the hatred the Guardian has for me, my country and, my president is pretty plain by what they publish as "news" and editorial content. The pure hate of the United Strates and anti-US sentiments of the UK public are a matter of record at the BBC on a daily basis.

With it's JFK support the Guardian wishes to further the goals of Mr. George Sorros and his leftwing liberal terrorist appeasers. Those who still don't understand that everything changed in the US on 9/11. We will fight these terrroists where they live not where we live. If a bunch of screwy UK twitters want to get in the way then they are going to get mashed under the wheels.

I hope that The Guardian loses all access to US government sources. You can go to my website and see how I think how some in UK press should be treated. Oh yes and to any citizen of Britain so inclined to meddle in the US election, stay out of my election and I will stay out of yours.

#3 "the hatred the Guardian has for me, my country and, my president..."

You, no. Your country, because of your president. Your president, well, that's pretty obvious.

"what they publish as "news" and editorial content"

You have room to talk don't you. You're probably one of the spoon-fed acolytes of Fox News, one of the most biased, stupid and inaccurate news services in the world.

We may have a pretty poor leader, but at least we posess the intelligence to know that our goverment is under par. With old Dubya holding the keys to the most powerful country in the world, we have far more frightening times ahead.

Maybe the letter writing campaign was a step too far, but any American with an iota of intelligence (no-one in Texas then) must be able to figure out how bad that neanderthal is at running the country. The hidden microphone scandal of a week or two past shows how this 'man' cannot string a coherent sentence together.

Toodle pip old chap, from a tea drinking 'Limey' from English-shire. :)

#4 ROFL!!! Excellent! The astoundingly misinformed but terribly articulate, urbane, witty, wonderful, LLL tool-fool Soros poofta-ponce spouts! I'm sold, Mr Tea Sipper! *bravo* *golf clap* I'll gather up my paltry iotas, shed my Neanderthal posture, medicate my skinned knuckles, and vote for Skeery straight-away!

Lol! You knew better, but being an asinine and inane Loonie, you just couldn't help yourself, lol! And now your eyes are green again - which means you're a quart low.

FOAD / HAND!

#5 That's quite a cover you have for yourself there, Kitcar. As long as you say you don't disike Americans, just the president they pick and the policies they support, you think you appear a fair, intelligent person. That's what you'd like to communicate to all those around you, like so many of your fellow Europeans-"we care, we were with you, America, after 9/11"-not because it's a genuine feeling, but because that's the impression you want to leave. It's not who you are, it's all about the PR about you.

It's quite amusing to see Europeans poking at President Bush's supposed idiocy, when they themselves are suffering from cognitive diarrhea. Think through the majority European stance about military force, which has been used ad nauseum in regards to the case of Iraq. Europeans are largely opposed to the use of force, EVER. But what would have happened to Europe had the US stood back and let you continue with that delusional philosophy in WWII and in the Serbian/Bosnian conflict. Think there'd be any Jews on mainland Europe today? Think there'd be a Bosnian alive today?

And isn't that equally true of what would have happened to Iraqis under Saddam had Europe won out in the end? Your philosophy in action looks a lot like rubber stamping genocide while you posture as being caring, humane people.

#6 How come all the trolls have such unique names Ã
How in the heck do people supposedly in the UK know whats on FOX news? They don't they except what United States hating crap towels like the Gaurdian say. If you hate my president you hate me. We elected him. Note I said elected. Excuse Kerry is talking shit on TV and I need to vomit.
Yea FOAD. HAND.

#7 it's so mind boggling to comprehend the arrogance involved in believing that Americans care what a bunch of fossilized socialists want or need.

Americans have their own lives and give little thought to the fact that a bunch of hand-wringing stiffs have little better to do than to make themselve feel superior by assuming that 250 million people all fit neatly into their preconceived stereotypes. As they say, bigotry is the ultimate expression of ignorance....or perhaps in this case, arrogance.

Get your own life - losers.
