| Parrish: U.S. voters 'out of step' (She does it again) |
| 2004-11-03 |
| Remember, people voted for her. There's a picture of her at the link. The re-election of a war-mongering president shows Americans are "out of step" with the rest of the world, says a Liberal MP infamous for her blistering attacks on George W. Bush. Carolyn Parrish said Wednesday that she's "dumbfounded" by Bush's victory. "He has been reconfirmed as their commander-in-chief, and he is a war-like man." American voters showed that they are "completely out of step with most of the free world," Parrish said. "I guess it's a reflection of the profound psychological damage of 9-11." The comments came just hours after Prime Minister Paul Martin warned his MPs in a private caucus meeting not to make incendiary comments in the wake of the U.S. election. Parrish wasn't at the meeting and apparently didn't get the message. Earlier this fall, Parrish publicly expressed her disdain for what she called the "coalition of the idiots" who back the U.S. missile defence plan. Last year, she referred to the Bush administration as American "bastards." Now, Parrish is urging Bush to dump his ballistic missile program, suggesting his immediate concern should be getting out of Iraq and Afghanistan. "I would hope that he'd concentrate on getting the U.S. out of those two problems they've got," she said. "I think his immediate concern should be where he has soldiers dying." |

| #2 "completely out of step with most of the free world" First, we (the U.S.) are a pretty major chunk of the free world. And second, it wouldn't stay free for long if we were in step with loonies like Carolyn... |
