Gee, Fred, Paul Revere, Bunker Hill, battles between US and British frigates etc., are thrilling to read about, and we still do, but tweaking the Lion’s tail went out sometime after the civil war….they sent that neat desk that JFK used, we sent them a spiffed up ship of theirs we found for the Queen’s birthday, they supported us in the Spanish American war, we made Churchill an honorary US citizen, Blair flew here after 9-11, their Queen sang the national anthem, …we still read their older legal cases…don’t let your judgment be colored by a few nuts in the UK that you can find easily enough here…If you want to be treated in a trashy way, and you’re not an attractive woman, go to France.
