No, our countries are allies and the idea that the US would invade an ally for their oil is infantile at best. British Petroleum merged with Amoco (formerly Standard Oil of Indiana), in December 1998, becoming BPAmoco until 2000, when it was renamed BP and adopted the tagline "Beyond Petroleum," which remains in use today. It states that BP was never meant to be an abbreviation of its tagline. Most Amoco gas stations in the United States have changed the look and name to the BP brand. In many states, however, BP is selling Amoco branded gasoline, as it was rated the #1 petroleum brand by consumers 16 years in a row (the name of the service station itself is still BP) and Amoco has one of the highest brand loyalty for gasoline in the US with only Chevron and Shell having such high rates as BP/Amoco. In 2000, British Petroleum acquired Arco (Atlantic Richfield Co.) and Burmah Castrol plc.
So, no; no reason for it.

North sea deposits are less than 1 eighth that of Alaskan known deposits and one sixth that of gulf reserves.
We'd always do things that piss off well meaning but misguided hippis than waging war on a nuclear armed allie.
As to your second question.
I have broad shoulders, larger than many OBESE people's lard area. This would keep me from entering the restaurant. You shouldn't require discrimination. No matter how meaning you are. Hitler just wanted a better Germany. Don't start on that slope.
Also, casual family resturants, such as olive garden and apple bee's entrees usually have between 600 and 1200 calories MORE THAN fast food combos.
Why don't we ban them?
You're just full of media garbage.
Fast food isn't the problem.

Stupid rant, against America,
by the way the idea about fast food shops and small doors would be a great idea, especially with a the lard-a r s e school kids and young people in the UK, its starting to look like a poor imitation of the U.S. bad food mentality.
No offense intended to the one third of America thats not obese

No. We have not been at war with each other since 1815.
The United States and Great Britain are the greatest allies in the world. I like the British people (most Americans do).
We do not care for stereotypes, however. Please do use them, nobody here is insulting you.

You know if it was up to me... I would tap into the US oil supply. Refuse to sell it overseas and if I do make you all pay a arm and a leg and all United States citizens pay very cheap :D

No, we have more oil than the UK, only, one of our two main political parties keep blocking us from using it. We wouldn't invade the UK for that. If muslim extremists took over, then we would liberate the UK I'm sure.

Yes we will invade our staunchest ally and lose the rest of them in the process. That sounds like an excellent plan.
*sarcasm.

Yeah, sure (sarcastically).
Where did obesity come into your argument? And, why, for that matter? That's something our government needs to impose laws on, more restrictive measures to keep people safe from themselves...What's next? Fascism?

That is a stupid question. My hope is that you really aren't that stupid. I'm fat and admit it, but to try and pin the blame on organizations and businesses is stupid. Seriously.
