Imagine you woke up this morning to read this story in your morning paper:
Mexico City, March 8, 2010: British Foreign Secretary David Miliband offered today to mediate a territorial dispute between Mexico and the United States of America. The Labour Party official offered Britain’s “good offices” in the century-and-a-half diplomatic row over conflicting territorial claims between the two North American nations. Miliband raised eyebrows at the U.S. State Department by referring to the American state of Texas by its Mexican name of “Tejas.”
That would surely cause you and most other Americans to be outraged. Butt out, Brits, you would be likely...
Brits Messing With Tejas? Why are WE Messing With the Falklands?
Why Secretary Clinton is mouthing these phases would be anyone's guess. Like the solider on trail for certain crimes, "I was just following orders," seems a logical answer.
Let us hope the ballot box will reflex our anger at these foolish actions.
