How’s that hopenchange working for you now UK?

Remember a year and a half ago, before Onumbnuts was elected, how the UK was absolutely gaga for him? It wasn’t even their election, yet they were all having shuddering orgasms left and right over Buraq’s utter brilliance, his stupendous intellect, his magnificent ideas, and all that rot.

And as soon as he got into the White House, the dissing started. Priceless bust of Churchill? No, we don’t want that, take it home with you. Hey Queenie, give me five, here’s a hug from my wife, and some special priceless gifts - an iPod full of O’s speeches, and an armload of DVDs from the K-Mart bargain bin that won’t even play on UK machines. Oh, and let me tell the world that Great Britain, our #1 ally for over 100 years, is nothing special. And, oh so sorry, he was just too tired to greet your PM. Yours is just another country, no better than Rhaggedhola or Turdistan. Diss, diss, diss, and a bitch slap. Consider yourselves lucky that he didn’t send Brown out the backdoor with the trash, like he did the Dalai Lama.

Hope folks are waking up over there. Suckas. Hey, here’s another smack upside the head for y’all ...

US refuses to endorse British sovereignty in Falklands oil dispute

Washington refused to endorse British claims to sovereignty over the Falkland Islands yesterday as the diplomatic row over oil drilling in the South Atlantic intensified in London, Buenos Aires and at the UN.

Despite Britain’s close alliance with the US, the Obama Administration is determined not to be drawn into the issue. It has also declined to back Britain’s claim that oil exploration near the islands is sanctioned by international law, saying that the dispute is strictly a bilateral issue.

This is what we call “voting Present”.

Senior US officials insisted that Washington’s position on the Falklands was one of longstanding neutrality. This is in stark contrast to the public backing and vital intelligence offered by President Reagan to Margaret Thatcher once she had made the decision to recover the islands by force in 1982.

“We are aware not only of the current situation but also of the history, but our position remains one of neutrality,” a State Department spokesman told The Times. “The US recognises de facto UK administration of the islands but takes no position on the sovereignty claims of either party.”

“Longstanding neutrality”? Yeah, since about January 20, 2009.

And here’s another funny thing. That little tinpot marxist thug down in coca land, Hugo “blame the joos” Chavez, just shot his mouth off about the Falklands the day before.

Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez has demanded Britain’s Queen Elizabeth return the Falkland Islands to Argentina.

The president made a direct plea to the UK during his weekly television and radio show ‘Alo Presidente’, in which he encouraged South America to rally behind a campaign to give the islands - a British overseas territory located off the South East Coast of Argentina, called ‘Las Malvinas’ in Spanish - to Argentina.

He said: “Look, England, how long are you going to be in Las Malvinas? Queen of England, I’m talking to you. The times for empires are over, haven’t you noticed? Return the Malvinas to the Argentine people.”

Sovereignty of the Falklands was contested in 1982 when the islands were invaded by Argentine forces, sparking a war against the British, which was resolved by June 1982 when the British reclaimed the islands.

Hugo later added to the Daily Telegraph newspaper: “The English are still threatening Argentina. Things have changed. We are no longer in 1982. If conflict breaks out, be sure Argentina will not be alone like it was back then.”

Huh. Imagine that. The POTUS echoing the views of a puffed up little south of the border socialist dictator.  Who would have ever expected that?

Who would have ever expected the POTUS to turn his back on both our #1 and #2 allies?

I expected it. Hate to say “I toldya so”, but ... there it is. And you know what makes it even worse? He’s likely one of your citizens, not ours.

I bet you guys are really thrilled to have all your troops over in Afghanistan, helping America fight her wars, what what?

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
