Yeah, they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go.
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.

Was this the army that beat Napoleon? Go on, I dare ya.

Oh come on
One would think you couldn't argue against me with facts, so you keep repeating the lines of a corny 50's novelty song instead in the hope that somehow it will annoy me.

Sorry..but you really need to come up with something more intelligent to impress me

Why would I want to impress you? Anyone that thinks the Brits never had their butts handed to them can't be taking history very seriously.
Oh I forgot. Ya'al decided to leave and sail up the coast.

Getting your capital burned down generally means you were on the end of the ass-kicking, IMO.

You have a nerve I have to give you that.
Your best shot appears to be to keep referring to a 50's novelty song
