Either Canada or the US has to have nukes. One of us needs to have a nuke deterrent on this side of the pond. I'm not sure what is better or worse: having the nukes and having the power to use or not use them and sell them (or not) yet being much more of a target in case of nuclear war, or not having nukes but being less of a target. The status quo has worked ok so I'll say yes to that.

Yes.

It might happen when somebody invents an even more powerful weapon, like a Death Star or a black-hole machine!

Agreed. Better to spend money on real problems than imaginary threats. If Canada were threatened it wouldn't take long to buy a nuke and slap it on a missile. Until then...

Shouldn't everyone be an environmentalist?

He's not ready to be leader yet so it's pointless for him in a way.

Brilliant song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1Ieeqev3ps

Can we assume all 10+ min songs by prog-rockers Rush and Pink Floyd have already been posted lol, they are kinda assumed on such lists.

Interesting comparison. Gore was far more qualified, but lost because he was just so fake and unlikeable, and yes a "boardroom mannequin". Romney obviously has a similar problem with relating to the average person, but I don't think it's on the same level as Gore. But yes it could cost him the election if it's close, among other things. Yup. MSM, especially TV networks, focus on the scandals and the gaffes over the issues for sure.

Romney has it in the bag for the GOP, this the 2012 race. Let the Superbowl of politics begin! Personally I think Romney is one of the better Republican candidates in a very long time. IMO probably the best since at least Reagan (McCain wasn't so bad, but Palin just ruined him obviously). Should be a good battle. Post your thoughts, news, etc. here.

There's too many politically correct wimps out there. Grow some skin thicker than Bible pages, geez! Maybe if this beer degraded albino's in some way they'd have some kind of point, but it doesn't that I see. This will sound harsh, but these albinos should just shut up, relax, and have a beer.

I wouldn't say most powerful. Defense lobby is more powerful. And what about the energy lobby?

Am I?

Possible higher prices...if you live in the US midwest it says. From your article: Honestly who gives a crap what some "consultant" hired by an energy company says. He's just flapping lips for those who pay him, so it's meaningless biased bologna.

Who here is "anti-American"?

One of the things SunTV is good for. Most Canadian media is like an echo chamber. As I write this Charles Adler is personally pitching a commercial during his show. So much for neutral media

That's a different issue. Obviously I'd assume most people are happy to see him get his justice, whatever the Iraqi people felt that was.

Go the suntv website. Yes I know the visit might string, but the fight is there in full.

Read a similar article about this on another news site. Those hundreds of thousands of people are dead, nothing can reverse that. But again what strikes me is what has been done in the US and the international community to ensure something like this can never happen again? Why hasn't anyone been held accountable? Democrats were/are obviously too much of a bunch of wimpy sellouts worried about votes to do anything, and for whatever reason the American people didn't give a shazbot. AW will go on about Chretien etc., and while a valid point on another question, it doesn't answer the above question. Why has nothing been done? Americans are apathetic to one of the greatest injustices in US history. What Canada has/hasn't done is irrelevant. It's a bit of a strawman and an ad hominem. My or others being non-American has no bearing on the legitimacy of the question: why hasn't anything been done?

Seems every time the snow melts and the weather gets nice the gas goes up. Been like this for years. What are we supposed to do? OPEC owns us all.

There should be a lot more stun-type non-lethal weapons in use. What is the point in shooting someone with a lethal bullet in self-defense? Why should a police carry a lethal weapon in their day-to-day dealings?

Doesn't make any sense to have an "Earth Hour", people should put up or shut-up and do whatever they think they should do every minute of every day. It's symbolic nonsense to show 1 hour of empty support so people can "feel good" and then trash the planet the rest of the year.

Insane.

Maybe the difference is when people actually where the hoods over the their heads. I don't, except when I'm outside and freezing my butt off, which isn't often since I'd usually have a hat if it's cold. But some people do wear the hoods up for style or whatever reason, and they're profiled for additional things, like dark skin, and other forms of dress that don't include sweater-vests, bow ties, and pleated trousers.

Agreed.
