Wait, if loaning money equals ownership then doesn't the U.S. own your country, by your own reasoning? I mean we did just bail you guys out. So if China owns us, we own you, and therefore China owns you as well. Right? I'm just using your logic.edit on 2-12-2010 by KnoxMSP because: (no reason given)
I don't know where you get the idea that you bailed the UK out, since we have not received IMF or any loans. You can scrap that idea right there.
Really? So we never bailed out Barclays, or any other EU companies? You do live in a country that is part of the EU, so essentially we did indeed bail you out. We could have let your banking system fail.
I am glad you don't represent the majority in your country.

You used to own Iraq, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia and India. Were do you get off painting us as imperialists?
- You blackmailed us out of seeking oil and commerce in the Suez - exactly what you are doing today
Individuals( that came from Ireland ) may have, but our government certainly didn't.
You funded and armed terrorists in the UK for 40 years
Your president sent back a statue given as a sign of friendship
A lot of us wish that it was just that simple.
You caused the economic flop of 2008
They should have won that war, and we should have been sided with them from the start, then your country would have had no platform to exploit Europe.

There are rules in our country, those rules prevented him from accepting it, because of it's value

Yes, that is why I said "YOU".
Funny how those "rules" never affected the pre Obama presidents who had it in their office.
Funny. I thought it was US banks that kicked it off.
