    More has to do with a cowardly federal government than the US.

    Dear Canada,

    This brainless Bush junta hack does not speak for me.

    Although if he'd mentioned how you went nipples topside in 1997 qualifying against Roy Effin' Wegerle, giving Sampson an excuse to keep McBride on the bench until it was too late, I'd have no choice but to agree.

    Love always,
    Dan

    Jorge Castaneda, the Mexican jackass, fails to mention that Europe has treated Mexico with "utter contempt" for for over 400 years. The list of European nations that have done so include England, France, Germany, & Spain.

    Dan, if you ever want people to respect your opinion, you might want to stop the name calling. Besides, we already went over the specific use of the word junta. Grow up

    Not that I'm at all adverse to name-calling, but in this case I wasn't even insulting a poster. I was insulting the US ambassador. What is he, your dad, or something?

    And I posted something like a minute after Doyle posted a big old cartoon with "IDIOT" in huge letters.

    You want some ketchup to go with that HYPOCRISY!!!!!?????

    King Dan...that reminds me, I've only got ten months to prepare for fiddlestick....

    I have to explain everything! I meant name calling in reference to you calling the Bush admin a junta.

    That's a good point. Where is your condemnation of DoyleG for calling Chretien an idiot?


    You do know what hypocrisy means, right?

    Yes, but i don't know Chretien well, so i can't say what Doyle G said wasn't right. I do know for a fact however, that the Bush admin is not a junta.

    No. They're more like a street-gang.

    Maybe a cross between an occupation government and a parasitic infestation.

    Thanks, Manny, for yet another "Do as I say, not as I do" request that conservatives are legendary for, though.

    So it's OK for us to insult people you don't know well?

    So they're not a junta. A cabal maybe. A regime. An oligarchy. A demagogy.

    Yeah, what else would you call a prime minister who wants to protect the safety of his own citizens by not sending them to die halfway across the world but an idiot? It's because of people like you that I try to spend as much time outside of Alberta as possible, though I live there. Lemme guess, you're on of those people who think the Edmonton Sun is a real newspaper and they aren't out to make money but tell the truth?

    This is hilarious. Not only is the article from the Post, the mouthpiece of the Right, but it's also written by a teenager.

    Being a good Canadian means paying taxes and obeying laws. Nothing more, nothing less. You can take your nationalism, patriotism and bigotry someplace else, cause this Canadian ain't buying it.

    And to actually say something about the article, only morons are unconditional friends. All friends I have are conditional. If my friend treats me like ***************, he ceases to be my friend. GW Bush has treated Canada like *************** since he got elected. You might say I shouldn't hold all americans responsible for this, but people voted him in and his approval rating is still above 50%. To me, this is a slap in the face of anyone who isn't american.

    Dear USA,

    The PM doesn't speak for those who Canada's history and it's real place in the world.

    Sincerly,
    Canadians who have half a brain.

    P.S Good on ya Don Cherry.

    Dear USA,

    You can have DoyleG, he doesn't speak for all Canadians.

    He'll fit right in!

    Sincerely,
    Canadians with the good half of the brain.

    PS: Sheesh...
