ORDINARY Americans have warned Scotland the momentous change it is being sold is total bullshit. With Scotland’s vote for hope and change too close to call, Americans who can remember 2008 laughed, but in a really sad and painful way. Bill McKay, from Greensburg, Pennsylvania, said: “I voted for Obama, even though I was pretty sure he was Kenyan. “But all the other presidents we’ve had were American and the vast majority were shit. So I thought ‘let’s see how it goes with a Kenyan fella’. “He was smart, confident and gave good speeches about hope. But then it turned out that speeches aren’t actually the same as life.” McKay added: “That said, I have just bought myself a new car. It’s a 1992 Buick Fandango and it’s awful.” Bethany Gordon, from Greensburg, Maryland, said: “Looking back, I’m kind of embarrassed. It’s like I was part of a cult. “So now, whenever I meet someone who thinks politics is the answer, I remind them to shut their idiot face or I’ll set my dog on them.” |
