Please everyone in America, it is terribly important that you sign this open letter from the Daily Kos to the people of the United Kingdom....RIGHT AWAY!!!

********

An open letter to the people of the United Kingdom:

We are writing to express our concern over Mitt Romney's recent comments, and to let you know that he does not represent how most Americans view your great country.

First, we do not believe, as Mitt Romney implied in 2007, that you have become a second-tier nation. Rather, we are impressed at how the United Kingdom has consistently been able to punch above its weight on the world stage.

Additionally, we do not share the opinion which Romney expressed in his 2010 book, No Apologies, that "England [sic] is just a small island," and that "with few exceptions, it doesn't make things that people in the rest of the world want to buy." Please continue sending us your many wonderful products, especially the upcoming third season of Downton Abbey.

We look forward not only to the London Olympics, but also to many years of continuing the special relationship between our two nations. Rest assured we will do our level best to prevent Mitt Romney from becoming our next president.

Cheers!

So far, 40,357 people have signed this letter. Let's make it 40,389. Think of the smiles on the faces of the people of the United Kingdom when they realize that even though the United States is a much larger and more important country, those people who want to score meaningless partisan points against Mitt Romney care enough to think several seconds about the wonderful products and television shows produced by these above-weight punchers on the world stage.

And do send money to Daily Kos so they can continue this kind of important work.

I know, let it die soon, unless you need a thread to post about useless petitions and open letters that you are asked to sign. There probably are enough of those to fill a real thread.

Still, isn't this item kind of choice? It's kind of like if Mitt Romney said "you throw like a girl" and then Daily Kos comes along to soothe the hurt feelings: "actually, you throw very well for a girl."

it's just the usual meaningless amplification of overreaction to little things that happens w/ the election cycle
