I agree. Which point to rebut him on? The fact that Merkuns should be anti-imperialist, especially against the British, otherwise we'd still have the Queen on our money like the canadians. Or the fact that his supposition for O's hatred for the Brits is based on no facts at all.

Someone like Alan Simpson, maybe? "Winston Churchill's 310 million tits!"

Random <a href="http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mau_Mau_Uprising#Atrocities" target="_blank">Wikipedia quote</a>: <i>[E]lectric shock was widely used, as well as cigarettes and fire. The screening teams whipped, shot, burned and mutilated Mau Mau suspects, ostensibly to gather intelligence for military operations and as court evidence.</i>

Strangling aside, would be nice to see a Coondog or Bloodhound instead of Bush's Scotty or Obama's Portuguese Water dog.

"...crazy teabag birther backwoods baptist deep fried squirrel shit."

I'm planning to use this phrase in a real-world conversation at the earliest convenience.

The Churchill bust was on loan from the British government. They offered to let Obama keep it but he declined, saying he preferred a bust of an America, Abraham Lincoln.

Bush was loaned the bust after 9/11 and he thenceforth compared himself to Churchill. I think that's why Barry didn't want Winston staring at him in his office.
