Ok, I have to launch in here!

Agreed, the EU is corrupt.

The also have a seriously corrupt president.  His election campaign was
pretty much funded by Exxon (Esso's parent company) and it was them who
asked him to abolish Kyoto - done.  They're an oil company, the main reason
for going to the gulf? Oil.  It think its more of a case that its better the
devil you've argued with before thatn the devil you haven't at least theres
a chance you can reach and EQUAL alliance.

OK, this I don't agree with at all.  America have set themselves up as the
international police force and are about to tell the UN to F**K OFF over
Iraq.  They want to take the world over, they're just doing it with large
(corrupt) corporations unless they reach an obstacle (Iraq/Osama/Anyone else
who they don't like) then they resort to force.

At least the EU are working for a supposed unilateral agreement on trade,
the americans are like the selfish baby who crys until they get what they
want.

Me too, of that I am certain.

>Long live the Revolution! 

Abso-bloody-lutely

>Vote Tory!

Never! I'll vote for anyone but.  It took them 13 years to f##k our country
and Iwas too young to have any say then, but I'm damned if I'm gonna let
them do it a second time.

</soap box>
>Take Cover!!

from nuke's perhaps??? ;o)

My £0.02,
