Re: Barrack Obama, YES WE CAN !!!!!!
I took a peek on here to see what you lot thought about Obama winning.
Bloody hell... I thought it was bad over here with PC poo - but it`s worse over there...you obviously can`t say boo to a goose (or in this case a monkey) without being put in the stocks and pelted with rotten veg!
I paged back to see what Racist Bob had said - only to find that Unracist Bob had suggested that a dumb (?) animal could`ve won the last election (and obviously did!!
- am I to be extradited now? 
)

I'm sure both the party that was hurt and the party that made the innocent comment are ok about it all now, so just leave it alone.

Re: Barrack Obama, YES WE CAN !!!!!!
We have a particular `arsehole` (Im going to be told off so goodbye) like that on our forum too - I`m sure you know of him but I can`t name him.. he thinks we don`t love him but we do really. But like Fatbrit - he must be Welsh.. has a chip on his shoulder

Re: Barrack Obama, YES WE CAN !!!!!!
I think you'll make a fine friend for Trace. Give us your opinion on the US election, then -- as that's why you arrived to say hello. Unless you want to talk about parkin or hotpot, that is.

Re: Barrack Obama, YES WE CAN !!!!!!
True, Tracy, true.
Fatbrit, I daren`t give my opinion on the election - I made a comment and was almost stoned to death so to give my opinion would be suicidal - I know that I`m female but I`m not COMPLETELY stupid (only mildly)
I`m not too good on Parkin but I do make a good Hotpot - and most women prefer it to sex - it beats ironing anyway.
It`s past 1am here and my bed-time. Nice chatting.... even to Fatbrit. I know he is a pussycat really xx
