I wasn't going to buy into this but after seeing Forrangers anti-American diatribe and Madman Ricks left wing rant I must say I admire the relative restraint shown by Tophat, 2nd ACR and Tankerace. Let me say straight up that I don't have an informed opinion about the relative merits of Bush or Kerry. That is something for Americans to decide. Forrangers smart-arse comments are offensive. I am getting a little tired of this continual bagging of the USA by some of the Europeans. Especially the holier-than thou type comments by Forranger and the like. As an Australian I am proud that we stood should to shoulder with our American friends when it counted : WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq. Many Australians will never forget the debt we owe to the US, particularly the US Navy, in our darkest hour in WWII. The Battle of the Coral Sea was a turning point for Australia. I don't recall Switzerland standing up when it mattered in any of these testing world events. ( my apologies to Swiss people who do not share Forrangers views--no offence intended.) Australia's friendship with the US has been forged in blood. Like all friendships we don't always agree, but the friendship remains nevertheless. Just my opinion of course.
