Ah, if only I could write for The Onion.
A bit of international blog-hopping brought me to these little hate-spewing death-geysers. While obviously not representing the opinions of the US as a whole, it’s interesting to get some insight into their far right.
American RealPolitik, featuring the charmingly sincere gem Tony Blair for President of the World
Little Green Footballs, which used to win awards before it polarised so dramatically and alienated so many readers.
In summary, Right America is developing a bitter, personal and (some might say) childish hatred of France and Germany for opposing US plans. Their opposition is not regarded as disagreement (as you might think) but as anti-American prejudice.
Personally I thought this wee article on a war being illegal chimes with my sense of disquiet perfectly.
