#1 Another whiney leftist who had her twinkies confiscated by an abusive older brother when a child. . . .

Ignore her.

#2 I'm really starting to loathe Canada. I found myself enjoying the replays of their hurdler tripping all over herself, and I'm going to start looking more carefully for the "Made in Canada" label.

Don't worry yourselves about being mistaken for Americans. Only an idiot would make that mistake. Y'all are France Lite.

#3 "We are not joining the coalition of the idiots," she said.

"because we started it"

#4 LOL @ France Lite, that about sums it up. They hate us like the frogs do, they all have that smug "I'm better then you" attitude that the frogs do. They even have Quebec, which makes France look friendly. Let's face it, now that the USSR has fallen, the world needed another "Evil Empire" regardless if we do more to help people then any other nation in the history of the planet. A great example of all that "love" is all the booing of US athletes at this years olympics. They hate us, and they have hated us long before mean old George Bush became pres.

#6 I think you guys are missing the point of the article. Canadians do not share twirpy Ms. Parrish's negative opinions of Americans.[well maybe Quebec and Torontonians employed by CBC do he, he] The National Post's Editorial Page article dumping on Carolyn Parrish is VERY significant because it comes from the lips of a powerful Liberal Party supporter, the Izzy Asper family, who now own the National Post. Izzy Asper passed away recently but his son[Leonard?] writes all the editorial pages of the Asper chain of newspapers so Canadians across Canada are reading the Izzy Asper family's put down of Carolyn Parrish. This lady is a loose cannon, who will never see an important position within the Liberal Party again. Here's a link to Letters to the Editor of the Toronto Sun as a measure of how ordinary Canadians are appalled by Carolyn Parrish's remarks. Ironically, there were but one or two Carolyn supporters and they were Americans. Canadians who wrote letters told Parrish to buzz off in no uncertain terms.

And keep in mind ACTIONS count louder than a menopausal hysteric's words. As has been said on other threads, Canadian troops are the largest coalition partner after US and the UK in Afghanistan. Canadian intelligence officers were in Iraq with US and UK troops from the get go-though Chretien refused to admit it until the bitter end. Canadian frigates were patrolling the Persian Gulf and protecting US supply ships from AQ attack-once again Chretien was loathe to tell anyone. Yesterday I posted an article about Canada contributing NATO officers to come to Iraq to train Itaqi law enforcement/military. Canada is our good neighbor and ally. Canda just has a loose cannon politician, sort of like our Swimmer and Carol whatsherface and who can forget Barbie Boxer and Charlie Schumer?

#7 Oh rex, don't be so serious. I think Wayne Gretzky's American wife should be named ambassador to Canada. That way Canadians can watch the most famous Canuck following her around, attached to the hip like a useless, but decorative appendage. Much like the US-Canada relationship now.

#8 I work with alot of Cadadians and they share our loathing of the LLL party members. The question for them is what to do about it. We have the same problem. If the people rise up and be counted the LLL will run away and hide like cockroaches. Getting started is the tough one.
