They would send a letter back saying how angry they are.

Coming from the Obama Administration, I'm not at all surprised...may whatever omnipotent being that's up there save our country, because we're doing a terrible job.

Brown might be happy to still be considered Prime Minister.

Or ignore it. Or a polite acknowledgement and never mention it again (although they did that to a friends letter, it wasn't hate filled. Just silly)

They'd have written back telling him they got the wrong person and told him to e-mail David Cameron instead. :p

You are right, the UK is no longer governed by the socialists. When did that happen? That is great news.

It said he was Pissed and High.
Don't tell me you've never done something idiotic/foolish/illegal when you've had those combinations.

I mean, most of the teenage population have done those things without being Pissed or High.


Yea I've done stupid things, but I've never broken the law. Sorry but what he did was more than just boys being boys.

Children under 5 must not be given alcohol unless under medical supervision or in an emergency.

2. How is it different? He threatened Obama, and saying he was high can be considered as excuse so what cant I "threaten" Westminster and say I was high?

The article I read said he just called the president a 'prick', although I'll admit I only skim read it.

Anyway, it's his own fault. If he hates America so much I doubt he'll want to go there anyway - there's plenty of other places to go, for instance.

If you seriously thing that some juvenile muggins has a chance of being anything more than all talk, no trousers, I'm afraid to say that you're pretty mistaken.


Yea....threats and verbal abuse is not covered by the 1st amendment, thanks for playing though.

From what I've seen, banning the kid is probably the normal legal action.

But I can't shake the feeling that if this had happened during the Bush(43) Administration that there'd be a lot of liberals screaming, "bloody murder!"

I knew you were disconnected when you thought Brown was still PM, but I didn't imagine you were to this extent. The last Socialist government the UK ever had was in the 70s. If New Labour were/are socialists, I'm a statue of a hydra made out of fondue and chestnuts.

I doubt they're covered under European laws either.

It sounds excessive, but in practice it isn't really. If you threaten the Pres in American you will be proscuited.
