It would be interesting to find out how the polling was done on this. I had an extreme anti-Brit bias for years after my time in the middle east. I spent a good deal of time working inside the British embassy and also within their living compounds. I was just a young airman at the time but it infuriated me the amount of condescension directed at me and the other US military types. I'm not exaggerating when I say there was a large group of the Brits who refused to call us anything but "the colonists". WTF?!? It was 1994, not 1774.
