Try Wikipedia, I hear it's the current replacement for the non-existent American educational system.

My goodness. You attempt to rebuke me and then only prove my point. Scotland joined the UK on May 1 1707. Right around the same time english and scottish settlers started plopping down in northern ireland, displacing the natives and driving wedges of religon between neighborhoods.

My point to raptor was to ask you, as a "Citizen" of the UK, to comment on northern ireland, since you were so focused on describing him as KKK. I've seen plenty of film from the 80's documenting english and scottish soldiers fighting side-by-side against Irish freedom fighters.

Not really, but if you feel you need to say that.

Yeah, I got what you were trying to do. How are those Taliban and Al Qaeda Freedom fighters doing by the way?

I cannot believe that an Indiana farmboy actually knows more about Scottish history than a native.

The Plantation of Ulster was the english means towards forced colonization of Northern Ireland. A process that lowland scots used to also colonize the region during the 17th and 18th centuries eventually forming the ethnic group of Ulster Scots. A fraction of them were driven out to the americas by the natives and another smaller fraction actually joined irish natives later in fighting the English, but the majority of Ulster Scots support United Kingdom rule to this day.

I'd link you to any number of wiki articles to educate you on the history of your 2 islands, but you've already showed a lack of respect for either wikipedia or the american educational system. And besides, it's time for me to log off and have dinner.

You're confused with Ted Kennedy's son, Patrick. He's the Kennedy who crashed his car into the steps of the Capitol building, at 2:30 am , thinking he was "late for an important vote".

Well, in all honesty, he WAS late for the vote. Or he was REALLY early for the next day's vote. :)

Dang, somebody beat me to it.

Don't believe it, because you don't. You chose to insert yourself in to a personal quarrel you know nothing about. Don't take getting involved in something you clearly don't understand, and my not bothering to get deeply involved on side subjects you throw up because of that, as indicative of my own knowledge. If you really wish to know why I said what I said to AU, it's because he spends his entire time making racist and nationalist slurs, and when he's not doing that, he's just being a plain damn troll. Talking to him in any regard other than that is pointless, so I, along with 90% of other posters here, never bother. You inserted yourself in the middle of that, and frankly it's none of your damn business.

If you really want to discuss this whole thing, then fair enough, maybe you and I can start over, I'd like that. I can be fairly sure that I know at least as much about your country, it's people and it's history, as you do mine. You portray me as "Brits like these" but frankly you know nothing about me save for a few posts made to tweek the nose of some ignorant xenophobic troll. I don't hate America, or Americans, though you'll find many here who disagree with that assertion due to the fact that there's a few posters here who can't separate criticism from hatred. I've been to America a number of times. More if I could afford to do so. My girlfriend is from Missouri, and hey she's Irish American, how does that stack up? Maybe I'm just a Sadomasochist?

I'd ask you take my comments in the context of who they were aimed at, and why, and what you jumped in to the middle of. Or we can carry on shouting at each other and disparaging each others education, it's up to you.

at some point folks were worried that one party might use police to delay the arrival of the other parties Congressmen in order to prevent their votes on pending legislation. Imagine that...

Oh, you mean like Lincoln did in order to prevent Maryland from secession ?

Bush, even Cheney, isn't half the monster he was, and yet we put his ugly mug on the currency and built statues in honor of a guy who really did more or less wipe his ass with the Constitution when it became inconvenient...

And yes, Bush could be subject to arrest, but not for what people think - what would legally trip him up is a little something called usurpation.

See, the president does not have the authority to declare war, and congress does not have the authority to delegate that responsibility, and as such, that *was* a criminal act and thus can indeed be prosecuted.

It's just that everyone's happy enough to finally see the back of him that no one really cares - tho they should, cause forgive and forget means dealing with these sumbitches again 12-15 years later, we really oughta put the boot in an finish the job, but that's just my opinion.

It cannot be said enough, those who do not learn from history, are doomed to endlessly repeat it

I don't think a red neck from the country that bought the World Oprah and Jerry Springer has any right to complain.

I'll tell you what, when Amy Whitehouse is half as bad as Britney Spears, get back to me .

So, old English bloke got a stick up his bum over a rich colonial slave ancestor making more $$ than the Queen? Oprah is quiet well thought of by most folks here in the US, and even our new President.

Britney is the belle a the ball compared to Ms Winehouse. Nice try.

Erm, no. Not that she does, nor that I care. Unlike delusional rednecks I don't base my lifes worth around how much money I've made and how many blacks I've lynched, but good luck with that, AU. Besides, it's southerners like you that flocked to the banner of the KKK, it's you guys that don't like to see your ex-property get ahead.

And really, Britney Spears isn't, but given the level of human decency, intelligence and class you show on a daily basis, it's really no wonder you aspire to be like her. I suppose Britney is up from some low life white trash trailer park, so good luck with that, but please stop wearing the dress, it's freightening the kids.
