American Ugly

Having come across ThankYouTony.com, which is full of fawning by Americans, I thought I’d post, pretending to be "Dwight Yorke" from Mobile, Alabama:

“Dear Tony,

I would like to thank you for revealing the true face of New Labour during the recent conflict. Thank you for proving that politicians are lying, two-faced deceivers who do not care about the will of the people, and who would rather listen to the opinion of the president of a completely different country, who should not even be in office.

Thank you for destroying my faith in the democratic process and furthering the cause of American imperialism.

Your actions were in contravention of international law! Who gave you the right to depose another head of state?

Thank you also for wiping out the lives of several thousand Iraqi civilians. And for what? So that the US can control the Gulf’s oil.

Shame, shame, shame on you!”

Somehow I doubt it will be added to the books that are being bound and sent to President Blair…
