Now look, you colonials. We know it took you 3 years to trawl your entire population to find 7 people who could do a chimpanzee's job at the pointy end of a rocket 50 years ago...

And yes, we DO know that the UK couldn't afford it's own Mercury programme....

But surely with all your resources, it cannot be that hard to find someone suitable as President? Obama or that gibbering "Nuke 'em now!" idiot, surely even you can work out the better alternative?

We have it a lot easier..... And in a rather more civilised manner, one would opine.
