Despite the incredibly weak response from our President and our government (blah blah continue war on terror blah blah No, we don't plan to raise the alert level to Ernie), our hearts are with the people of London and those worrying themselves sick about friends and family living there. You deserve better than platitudes from this side of the pond.

The world became briefly American after 9/11, a sentiment which has totally evaporated in the face of our ongoing adventures around the world. Today, sadly, we are all British. Rule Brittania. God save the Queen.
