Good point, and why do we let them all in?

Not quite. You'd be surprised. Blair still in office because because a lot of Brits like Americans. A lot of Turks like Americans. Blair is still in office because he refuses to leave.......and its hurting the Labor party. Their ratings are down in the polls. Unfortunately for the Brits, they can't impeach their PM. So its up to the Labor party to get rid of him.......since Bush's poodle has been stringing them along for two years now, they finally forced the issue on him. He is to be gone by next May. BTW the Brits hated that exchange between Bush and Blair caught on video.......you know the one where Bush is swearing while half eaten food is spitting out of his mouth. They thought it made Blair look even worse than a poodle.......more like a servant. I saw a survey yesterday. FIFTY-FOUR percent of the French support military action against Iran. Only 46% of the Germans do. And you know who will lead that if it happens. Interesting. Let me have the link. I liked to read the article. If everybody hates Americans, how come about half the world is trying to get here? Oh that's simple......they think the streets are lined with gold. Its only after they get here and they are living in a hole in the wall that reality sinks in. You know.....they live in all those places in LA that you wouldn't be caught dead in.....ten people to a one bedroom apt. Not long after they arrive, their dream to make it big in America gets transferred to their children........they know it ain't going to happen for them. Their kids usually turn into gang members. Its all very sad.
