Ooops, now I'm in trouble.
Yeah I'm glad in the US we don't censor anything on TV,Radio or the internet like the beepheads at the European Union. I mean what a bunch of beepholes.
Too many of you people are posting hatefull comments about the Council of Europe. That means you're all outlaws.
Since the days of freedom and free speech are counted, I guess I better grab the few occasions I have and say what's on my mind. All those pro-censorship laws are crap.

What's that smell?
Oh, yeah. It's the rancid stench of A Stupid Idea That Will Never Work.

The last 3 prime ministers in the UK have been a middle class lad turned new Labour (Tony Blair), the son of a bloke who worked in a circus and who was an accountant and very working class who led the conservative party (John Major) and the daughter of a grocer who got a degree in Chemistry and led the Conservative party in 3 successive election victories. Working class, middle class, upper class, man or woman and no-one cares about religon... all have led the UK. Do you have such equality.
George W. Bush was a criminal (DUI), doesn't that count for anything? You hoity-toity brits...
