Freedom of speech isn't just for liberals. And, yes, he is a nutjob. But just be sure to include all of them. Including Ward Churchill and Cindy Sheehan.

As usual, liberals are attracted to pessimism like flys to, well, you know. And as usual, their opinions are worth about as much. USA Today

I would argue that strong support for Israel resides in many political persuasions. As for the assassination of "foreign leaders", I would also argue that leaders of terrorist organizations (Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad) aren't considered foreign leaders. Just my opinion.

Trudeau was responsible for starting the trend of deficit spending and increased national debt.

Are you saying that Pat Robertson and "the religious right" are on par with Osama Bin Laden? And are you saying that "the religous right" support the idea of assassinating Chavez? How do you arrive at these conclusion?

Yeah, that seems a little sneaky. I guess that also means don't bother pursuing a career in politics. What you say in this forum could come back to haunt you as a television commerical.

How about comparing unemployment rates?

No offense, but too bad. I'm simply pointing out, that to hold up Robertson as one who represents the views of Christians is as illogical as submitting that Osama Bin Laden represents the view of Muslims. To think that the majority of the "religious right" support the assassination of Chavez is beyond ridiculous. In fact, I would bet that there's a larger percentage of Muslims who support Osama Bin Laden. Any fool, is free to state their opinions. Robertson is a perfect example.

You're exactly right. As a politican, she represents all Canadians, and should do so in a professional manner. She's a miserable failure, and deserves to have no part of any government in power.As for missle defense, I think it's a good and logical idea, and I don't see why such technology shouldn't be pursued. It's just another example of how Canadians will reap the benefits of American tax-payers and American ingenuity.

Just as Osama Bin Laden is a represenative of Islam.

Like Bill Clinton?

Well, sometimes the fundamentalist religous people from any country get a little too far outside. Or, sometimes religous people from any country get that way. Or sometimes just people from any country. I like to use quotes with "democratically elected" any time it involves authoritarian regimes. That's all.

The funniest thing I've seen regarding someone falling on his face was Castro. When I saw the video of Fidel Castro tripping and falling on his fat, disgusting, dictator face, I couldn't stop laughing for what seemed like hours. Chavez is cut from the same cloth as Castro. I would love to see something similar happen to that "democratically elected" leader.

What do you mean accept these kinds of comments? Would you like to see the authories arrest him? He's afforded the same rights as Prof. Ward Churchill who called all of the victims of 9/11 “little Eichmanns.” Your selective outrage is humorous. *Edit Oh, and by the way, it wouldn't be a bad thing if Chavez had an "accident" and was unable to hold onto power in Venezuala.

I agree, and I guess I should be happy. However, I'm almost as anti-Parrish as I am anti-Liberal. I really can't stand her.

With all due respect, why are you trying to quash opposing opinions in the guise of disingenuousness? Your opinion is perfectly legitimate, but so is mine. I happen to think that our country is over-taxed. The rather large continuous surpluses is proof. Yes, a surplus is better then a deficit. But large continuous government surpluses are not ideal. That results in billions of dollars per year sucked out of the economy by a non-producing entity.

Here's an interesting article: Guardian

You're so right. We have friends who's husband is a Pediatrician. He's from the United States but was practicing in London, Ontario, at the Children's Hosptial. Anyways, long story short, he had to leave and take a job in Toledo, Ohio, because of all the regulation related to doctors coming from outside of Canada. It's just another example of government regulating itself into a crisis.

And by breaking American drug laws. However, the issue isn't about the health effects of marijuana, or Paul Emery's business acumen. It's about his distribution of marijuana seeds in the United States, which is strictly prohibited. You people continue to skirt the real issue.

The answer is an obvious no. However, there are definitely some people in this forum becoming dangerously close to a level of hyperbole never before seen in this country. Give us all a break, and try and control your obsessions with Nazism.

It's all about supply and demand, as it is with any job. The supply of doctors is small, and the demand for doctors is large. They represent a very skilled workforce in which only a very small group of people have the necessary training and skills to succeed. The government continues to artificially cap doctor's salaries, contrary to what they're actually worth. I have no beef with doctors seeking to be appropriately compensated for their incredible work. God bless doctors!!!

I have a HUGE problem with that list. Where the hell is WESTERN?

Exactly. I had no idea either. As long as their back to work for the beginning of hockey season.

That's true. Although, the occupation angle is just a smoke-screen. Even before any territory was occupied, they were seeking to completely destroy Israel. I hope, now, that attitude has changed.

Yes, you are correct. However, it's a fact that these lands were being used as a staging ground by the surrounding Arab countries in their efforts to destroy Israel. I don't fault Israel for being pro-active in it's defense, especially when one examines history from the creation of Israel up to 1967. However, I really don't want to get into the long drawn out history of the region. I hear that the Palestinians would be happy if Israel would reduce itself to the pre-1967 border. This would be a welcome change of heart. Because, for the longest time, borders didn't matter, only the complete destruction of Israel.
