BBC journo pontificates on his leave from post in America

Shorter Webb: America is a land of wealth, opportunity, glutinous excess, and anachronistic 'stone age superstition'.

America is the India of proud industrious societies.

Britain is full of muted realists with introspected post-imperial wisdom; America is autistic.

Going back to my shitty house in Britain.

In more than seven years of life in America, I have come to value - to love, actually - the stolid, sunny, unchallenging, simple virtuousness of the American suburban psyche.
Seriously? Go fuck yerself England. >:(
