Like
Benny Hill,
Monty Python,
Mr Bean,
Eddy Izzard, et al , before him, looks like Sacha Baron Cohen, aka
Ali G. is finally heading this way. Although the
London Times denounces him, while "frighteningly" proclaiming his latest movie will be a massive hit, and the
BBC is royally pissed off, there's no holding him back. Next stop is
America and he wants to be
massive in da States. Some prior discussions going back all the way to May 2000
here,

The America-Hating British? In the UK's Spectator : "And this time it’s not just the usual America-haters at the Guardian and the BBC, but the likes of Alice Thomson, Stephen Glover, Alasdair Palmer, Matthew Parris, my most esteemed Telegraph and Speccie colleagues...many people over here had no idea quite how ridiculous you are. You’re shocked by us, we’re laughing at you. In fairness, instead of coasting on non-existent diseases and wild guesses at the weather, the always elegant Matthew Parris at least attempted to expand Guantanamo into a general thesis. ‘We seek to project the message that there are rules to which all nations are subject,’ he wrote in the Times. ‘America has a simpler message: kill Americans, and you’re dead meat.’ This caused endless amusement over here. As the Internet wag Steven den Beste commented, ‘By George, I think he’s got it!....’ PS What is an internet wag anyway?
