What an inconsiderate, disrespectful redneck, idiot, son of an asshole we have for a president. Bush is the first president in years to be invited to stay with the Queen at Buckingham Palace. The queen was "less than chuffed" to learn that Bush had brought his own private chefs. Apparently the Buckingham Palace staff makes food fit for a queen, but that isn't good enough for Bush. Or perhaps Bush couldn't do without his usual hamburger and freedom fries.
To add insult to injury, Bush's security men trashed the Queen's gardens. They painted big H markers on the lawn for helipads. They trampled rare species of flowers, some of which were named after members of the royal family. Some shrubs and trees that were damaged have been there since the reign of Queen Victoria in the 19th Century. The Queen is said to be "furious." The Daily Mirror reports "The repairs will cost tens of thousands of pounds but the damage to historic and rare plants will be immense" and that 30,000 visitors for a garden party "did not do as much damage as the Americans did in three days." Show some respect Bush. Stupid Redneck asshole.
The reason Bush needed such unprecedented levels of security in the first place is that the English people think he is stupid and a danger to international peace. 100,000 English people protested his visit. Three cheers for the British people!
Posted by Chris at November 24, 2003 05:09 PM | TrackBackToo bad Bush's old boy Tony Blair is unlikely to raise a stink about it. This is what "Third Way" Labour has come to--begging scraps off the table of the most right-wing administration in American history and keeping quiet even in the face of a serious national insult.
Blair thinks that the best way to deal with a bully is to become his buddy. France and Germany have shown once again that the best way to do it is to give him a nice little sock in the nose. He'll start crying, then go home and tell his mommy, and he'll hate you, but he'll respect you. I doubt Bush and his crew will be tearing up lawns on their next state visit to Paris.
Posted by: dende blogger on November 24, 2003 10:23 PMFreedom fries! It really sounds hilarious over here, as I'm sure it does to most reasonable people in America.
Although I could write a long list of all the things about the Bush visit that pissed me off, the general impression of his eternal contempt being top of the list, I have to say as a life-long republican (a republican not a Republican), that W has gone up in my estimations now I've heard he's smashed up the Queen's garden.
Anyway, three cheers for the American people, something I'm usually too pessimistic to say, but when I read blogs like this it gives me hope. Just please for everyone's sake do us all a favour and storm the White House if he fixes the next election like he did the last. You do that and we'll do Third Way Labour. Sounds like a deal!

GARDEN GAL APOLOGIES FOR BUSH ASSAULT
TO QUEEN OF ENGLAND
Author & garden expert Kelly Moran of Washington, D.C. issued a statement of apology to the Queen of England, the entire Royal Family, the Palace gardening staff and the British people for the assault made by President Bush during his recent visit.
Moran, upon hearing the news that President Bush and his security entourage´ trampled the gardens at Buckingham Palace, causing thousands of dollars in damage, and worst that the President’s helicopters destroyed trees and shrubs that had survived since Queen Victoria’s day, immediately sent a telegram of condolence to the Queen.
In the note sent to the Palace, Moran said “I hang my head in shame and deep embarrassment for the insensitive and unwarranted rubbish behavior of President Bush and his protection service that have been allowed to organize this debacle under the umbrella of National Security.” Moran went on to label the Presidential parties’ behavior as brash, ill-mannered, arrogant juvenile delinquents lacking cultured sensitivities.
Moran, a TV garden presenter went on “Any gardener will tell you, that loosing a beloved rare, exotic rose or perennial is quite sad – I cannot imagine such extensive damage to ones garden nor the loss of old historic shrubs dating back to Queen Victoria’s day being cut down by roto blades. Thank God we’re not all cowboys from Texas!” said Moran.

There are restaurants in Gulf Shores,
Alabama that actually changed their menues
to read "Freedom Fries".
Didn't know about the garden damage, but
this was not W's first faux pas with the
queen. She was in Texas, I think, at dinner
when Bush SR was pres, W showed her
his cowboy boots, which read, "Long live
the Queen". He impressed her so well, that
she asked him, "Are you the black sheep of
your family?" He said, "Yes. Who's the black
sheep in YOUR family". She wasn't amused.
Honestly, if this fucking guy is re-elected, I am seriously contemplating taking and out of US placement with my company for the next four years!!!! This fucking asshole needs to be drug into the street and beat along with his war monger cronies. How could anyone support a monkey like this based on his inarticulate manner alone is freaking beyond me (let alone what he has done to this country)??????
