YANKS N FITBA

The USA media call Hilary Clinton a communist agitator, that's an indication of where the centre of their politics is. When her husband Bill ran for President while Governor of Arkansas he interrupted his campaign in a blaze of publicity to return home and sign a death warrant for a prisoner on death row who had appealed, this was done to show his 'toughness' on crime. When the condemned man was asked for his last words he asked if he could have ice cream later for dessert, he had a mental age of 8 yrs. 'Land of the Free'.

Hilary and the other democrat hopeful Barack Obama both support the death penalty, and Iraq, in the USA they are left wingers, Edwards, a third so called left wing democratic candidate recently spent 800 dollars on his hair cut, that's normal according to left wing senator Edwards, seriously.

Meanwhile, one of the gangster Bush's hate figures Michael Moore is back in his face with a documentary about America's deplorable health provision 'or lack of it' 50 million without health care and child mortality worse in some areas than some 3rd. world countries, that's the USA today, the world's richest country !

Brave people who helped to rescue and care for victims of 9/11 and suffered injuries and illness as a consequence were told that they were not entitled to treatment because their Medical Insurance did not cover them for such an incident. Moore took them to Cuba to get treatment and he is now being pursued by American authorities for visiting the tiny island which scares them so much.

The Americans want to confiscate his documentary, they don't want the world to see the scandalous situation in the worlds richest capitalist country, this is the Home of the Brave !

Americans should start telling the truth by adding to the Statue of Liberty ' give me your tired , your poor, your huddled masses, yearning to breath free.
AND I WILL EXPLOIT THEM

FITBA - Dramatic contrast was provided by two cup finals one was a non event at the world's greatest and newest stadium between two of the world's richest, most famous teams, that was of course the FA Cup Final between Chelsea and Manchester United. Cat and mouse tactics by both managers made this a major disappointment, people paid £60 for a ticket and were charged £5 for a programme, £8 for a burger and £10 for a pint of beer, the working man's game eh ?
There were famous rich players on show who didn't enhance their reputation in any way, with the honourable exception of Didier Drogba who is quite simply a force of nature. IMO if you sat down a panel of experts and asked them to come up with a perfect centre forward, Didier would emerge, big, strong, brave, fast, skillful and a mentality which does not allow failure, he gave the fans their money's worth.

The other final at historic Hampden Park, by contrast had the lot, a roaring battle between two relatively modest Spanish teams, Seville and Espanyol, with every player giving everything and a brilliant level of talent and skill.

These players were completely uninhibited, play flowed from end to end at an astonishing speed, a 2-2 score and the whole thing ended in an agonising shoot out ( bring back replays I say ) I watched the penalties from behind the couch. Wembley and Hampden showed the best and worst of the beautiful game, Wembley was awful with a bill of £83 for the game, a programme, a burger and a beer while Hampden was great at £35 for the same, and even that IMO makes it tough for the working man. The Spanish at least showed us the beautiful game. muchos gracias.
