It is possible for you to be American without being a gob****e. Apparently
plenty of you were not able to discern a difference.
My American friends and aquaintances are not gob****es (shrug). Perhaps it
is only on usenet that you cannot be one without the other?

You could moan to NTL - they may take notice since the AUP says you are
not meant to call Americans, or indeed any other people nasty names.

Rofl.Why don't you whine to my ISP. Whine to Tony Blair too, and don't
foget your mummy.
"Wah wah wah, she called one of us a gob****e".

trash,
I will give up keeping animals and go on a world cruise.


Off the soapbox now...
Put it over your head lovie, where it might do some good.

Do you dislike Americans in particular or just hate all foreigners?

And are all Americans as petty and childish as you are?
Having lived all over the world, I also have friends of many
nationalities.
I speak 2 languages fluently and more very badly.
So I objected to the very silly and insulting post of an American. How
does
that make me anti American?
I personally find the attitude of 'either for us or against us' rather
silly. It is this attitude which starts wars.



I think the reason you are running into this line of questioning is that
many of us wonder why you even commented on nationality. What did that have
to do with it? -- in the same way that gender, race, and ethnicity should
not be a part of the answer because they have absolutely nothing to do with
the issue.

Your poor cats
will get settled in with a new person in a new home, then when it is
convenient to you, you want them back. Not fair at all.

You seem to be suggesting that if they stay in someone's home, they will
become attached, but they won't if they stay in this wonderful cattery that
your cats would be hard pressed to want to come home from?????

I disagree and think the comment about money was out of line. They are
trying to do the best they can for their cats, and you are insulting them
:-o They may have had to mortgage their house to take this once in a life
time trip. Another $1,000 might make it impossible. Don't judge others,
when you haven't the whole story.

My 2 cents...

Silly girl. Why do you assume, that because I have had an issue with one
poster, that I hate a whole nation?
I mean , you lot are so flipping over sensitive sometimes.I actually have
several American friends, as I live not far from Mildenhall base.
Just goes to show how little you know eh?

When you call someone a "gob****e American" then you are using
their nationality as a slur. You may think you aren't racist..but your
writing says otherwise. If you don't have a problem with Americans
as a whole than I suggest you stop using the term as a put down.

Right Molly...it's EVERYONE else who has the problem..not you. You
used nationality as a slur. It's not a big leap to assume you have an issue
with that nationality. It's the same as calling someone a "stupid Mexican".
It shows ignorance and hatred.....another way wars are started. Maybe
you didn't mean to put down Americans as a whole but when you did.
If it wasn't intentional a simple "sorry, I didn't mean it that way" would
suffice. Of course that would require you taking responsibility for your
slurs, something you aren't willing to do. Go ahead and defend your
racist attitude..we are used to it. We have to deal with it from the Klan
all the time.
