Reasons for war

[Lucifer]

have just worked out why American presidents are so fond of trouncing assorted dictators around the world.
ENVY

An American president is expected to work 24 hours a day and the pay is crummy. Worse, they have to live in a few rooms up the end of what is basically an office building.
For a break they have Camp David which from what I have heard has all the comforts of a boys summer camp.

Saddam, on the other hand, had not one but a whole batch of palaces with marble floors, gold taps and every luxury you could want.

The only other world leader who has it worse than the president is the Prime Minister of Britain. Think about it. The Queen gets a string of palaces and castles, gold plated coaches and a company of horse guards out the front.

The Prime Minister gets a dinky row-house up an alley with one policeman standing at the front door.

No wonder Bush and Blair got together muttering "Look down on us will they? Well, we'll show them all"

10 Downing Street is a luxury, funtional palace inside.
It is surrounded by Govenment Ministrys in Whitehall.
And from the rear you can cross into Green Park, Pall Mall,
Dover Street and Bond Street. Oxford Street is just 1.5 miles away.

All great men work with a pen a pad, a desk, and thats all you need.
Whilst i admire the White House, i think Downing Street beats it for its intended purpose. It suggests greatness by understatement.

TRUE-BRIT.

I agree with True-Brit.

10 Downing Street is a better luxury than White house.

But americans should tell, what they do prefer:

-to have McDonalds around the corner where they live or do they prefer to kill a few thousand foreighers somwhere in the mid-east to get gas to drive SUV or Hummer 5 miles or more to nearest Mcdonalds.....:)
