Psh, the US and Britian are like the cool kids in school. The ones that wear '80s leather jackets, smoke, cut class, and take other kids lunch money (oil).

If I had my way, the "head" of state would be mounted on a spike on Tower Bridge. So I have no problem if the unelected parasites are to be included in the swirlying :D

The UK is, and who cares about the Northern Irish after 9/11 stopped rich Yanks sending guns to the IRA when they realised how shit terrorism was?

This argument really does fuck me off intensely. If, heaven forfend, I suggested that second generation Pakistani immigrant in Britain was Pakistani, not British, the amassed moralists of NSG would be upon me with unholy haste, and yet somehow, over 250 years since they migrated, the Royal Family can still be labelled "German".

Does rotating the order that they presented the countries in really help the poll's accuracy at all?

Well, it probably didn't help when Bush made statements indicating that the 9/11 terrorists came in through Canada and then didn't take these statements back when they turned out to be wrong.

Sure. As a poll-taker, you give higher thought to those choices that come first and less to those that come later.

heh reminds me of an episode of Qi i saw and Stephen Fry asked why the Royal Family opened up their presents Christmas Eve. Someone said because they are royalty or something and Fry replied with "no because they're fucking German"
