"Theory: If Guy Fawkes had finished his mission to complete success, ie a new catholic head of state had been installed (instead of catholics being treated even worse after Fawkes), would perhaps the 'puritan' future colonizers of America not have been born? I'm just wool-gathering here, I'm not anti-US."
Presumably, you're thinking of the Mayflower colonists (alias "the Pilgrims"). They weren't really as important as people think.

I guess that sounds harsher than I intended, but still.
Please elaborate, oh wise one.

That could turn into one of those temporal paradox things where Nim is his own grandfather, and since it could not be as amusing as when they did it on Futurama, lets skip it.
Nim, stop looking at your gamndma that way!

Well, starting with the most easily verifiable, Kanye West is a rapper, not a comic...
Yeah, I caught that after the fact too (I never heard of him prior to his remarks, so...) The rest is on the money though- it's sad that a lot of people now think Bush is racist: there's even a rap song sampling the whole "bush does not care about black people" line.
As I mentioned, I think it's more that he does not care about poor people (or at least does not have sympathy for the working class).
Meh. Everyone in government sucks.

None of his actions speak of racism though- gross uncaring, favoritism, cronyism, fingerpointing, back-room dealing, political backstabbing, lies, misleading the public, getting us into an un-needed war, favoring big business over people, destroying a quarter century of environmental protections, and allowing a terrorist to escape justice by offering him asylum in the U.S.... but not racism.
So, you see, he's really a great President after all.

You should never say that under any circumstances.
