CBC Viciously Attacks Bush
ft.niagara replied to geoffrey's topic in Canada / United States Relations
The only people who are hellbent on killing innocent people are the islamists who started this. Everything follows with some logical thread from 911. To say otherwise is ..... At present time, the islamists are happily killing each other in Iraq. Too bad for them. The Americans are for the most part trying to prevent it, with no help coming from the rest of the world. An unstable middle east is no benefit to Israel, whose security is a benchmark of American AND Canadian foreign policy. And there is the hypocracy of the CBC, Canada is not YET Islamic. -
There are no boundries for self interest. Back in the 50s Canada expanded the Welland Canal over US foot dragging, and today there are many exotics in the Great Lakes, including Lake Michigan.

It is facinating to see Canadians talk about their national breakup in the terminology of when, not if. I think the world if evolving into economic partnerships which transcend national borders. This is probably a good thing because it is probably the biggest roadblock to war that ever existed. The EU is a mimic of the US, however they have alot to sort out with language not the least of their problems. They have traditions, and alot of historical anamosities. I was interested to see that Japan is building car factories in Canada. I thought they only built in nonunion areas, and I thought of Canada as a union type area (similar to Michigan).

Actually, I occasionally find her insightful, entertaining, and refreshing. I get a chuckle out of all this liberal Canadian piling on, and how it represents some kind of wish that she will go away, or you are making her go away. But alas, she will not go away. I suspect that she will be around for many more years.

Yes, isn't it terrible how that AC spews such nonsense. Venom is not half of it. And as for Canada, All Americans LOVE Canada. As said elsewhere, what's not to love? As for 'where else would we go to get good looking women ^^?', I really don't think the Americans are raiding the Canadian female population.

No, there really is no debate, only opinion exchange. You were exchanging your harmonious opinions before I came along, and you will do so after I leave. There was no debate going on here, just a bash fest of Fox News and Ann Coulter. When paralysis takes over, just go to your corner. As far as people of color comprising 42% of the executions, so what does that prove? A bias against people of color? Far from it. More likely, it is more people of color commit crime. Talk about unbalanced reporting, any grade schooler can pick that arguement apart. As far as not detering crime, I think that is wrong. I think they do deter crime. In fact, it is truly impossible to prove one way or another. Can I ask one question? Does Black Dog mean watch dog, junk yard dog, big dog, small dog, mean dog, a mut, a poodle, a doberman, or just a house hold pet?

You pushed. I responded, and then you deferred to another thread. Who's paralyzed?
-
Yep rolleyes, you are disfunctional. IMHO, someone who kills a dozen people has committed a crime which does not warrent life in prison, it warrents DEATH. I suppose in that way I agree with those mentioned countries, except they cause suffering.

The only way many of the right's cherished beliefs can survive is in a hermeticaly-sealed environment, free of opposition or facts. HeHeHe. Joe SCARBOROUGH for your information is not on Fox News. He is on MSNBC. Regardless of the good doctor, there were nine liscensed nurses which gave testamony that she was not brain dead, in their humble professional opinion. Further, the judge did not in those many years ever see fit to journey to her bed side. The husband did not recall her death wish until after settlement of a malpractice case, and his testamony as to her wishes should be viewed as compromised by MONEY. He went on to father two children by a third party during those years, and yet would not grant the parents wishes to divorce her. HE wanted her dead for his own purpose, a blind man can see that.

Says who, you? HaHaHa. Ann Coulter is a nonthinker and you are? HaHaHa.
-
What makes you think the two concepts are mutually exclusive? They are not. In fact, being a Bush/G.O.P mouthpiece has been immensley profitable for FoxNews. I have never seen 'talking points'. Any idea where I can get some? IMHO it is the left who are the king of talking points: no WMD, no WMD, no WMD. You make Fox News into a quasigovernment sponsored propaganda machine. Talk about false reporting.

I am using Firefox and the link did not work for me. I did not chase it into IE. I did not get to hear Annie's rant. I have seen plenty of posters lamenting Canada's situation here on this board. If her comments matched those posts from here, so be it. What false reports? No clue as to what they are talking about? In your opinion perhaps. Fox News is owned by an AUSTRALIAN. If people did not like its manner, they would not watch it, its ratings would go down, it would lose money, and it would report differently. Fact is, many people do not find its reporting is not accurate. The commentators are not reporting the news, they comment on it. Again, don't listen to it. What bothers those here is that people DO listen to it, and believe me they are not as stupid as you believe them to be.

I think you could say it is disfunctional to not to deal with terrible crime in a manner appropriate to the crime for FEAR of doing harm. The socialism in Canada is supported in part by NO military, which is tolerated because of proximity to the US. The Iraq dysfunction is in part from 911 which DID NOT Happen in Canada. Most likely if an when such happens in Canada, you guys can sit in a circle, have a pray in, and sing songs.
-
What a silly comment. Did you ever think of looking in the mirror? Following the posts on this board, Canada is disfunctional, and just ignores its disfunction. You have a French Quebec control of your government. Your English speaking 'majority' are quasi officially discriminated against. You send truck loads of money to French Canada for their 'happyness'. Your Prarie Sorts are getting tired of sending money east. No, the pontification from above is what defies explaination.

Wow. All this 'talk' over a wispy blond Ann Coulter. The left has had its version of AC (Michael Moore, Barbara S, etc) and hardly a wisper. AC keeps the fires lit, and the left can't stand that. The left appears heartless (Terri Scheivo), idealess (SS reform), incompetant in defense (John Kerry), and hypocritical in concept (no capital punishment vs. death by starvation). Ann Coulter is merely a tell it like it is type. As far as Fox News, it is not a mouth organ for the Bush Adm. It is a business. It delivers the news (a product) in a manner people want to hear it. It is after all just a product. If you do not like the product, don't tune in. Duh.

What TOO 'great powers"? language? try and write as though the other party does not know what you are talking about
-
That is how I take it, and in the country of Quebec English is a minority language, and they are even more strict there over its use than in France itself. For some reason, Quebec does not receive the kind of immigration of nonFrench speaking people so as to change that balance. In Miami there is as much spanish signage as english. But of course, Quebec being a country within a country, would limit immigration into it if such a shift would look possible.
-
"marginalization of those parts of the English speaking majority" It's called discrimination, and in most civilized countries it is illegal. Also, they are not the 'English speaking majority' in Quebec, they are the minority. The only answer to that problem is a major influx of non French speaking people into Quebec so that French is no longer the majority language. Maybe Canada would like ALOT of Mexicans.

What a joke. Mr. anticlimates to save the day, and Mighty Mouse is on the way. As usual. a very delusional posting. Rest assured though, there are very good medications these days for such problems.

Canada without a Military?
ft.niagara replied to Army Guy's topic in Canada / United States Relations
This is worse than affirmative action. You can not change your race, but you can THEORITICALLY change your language skill, so you can use it as a basis for discrimination. Actually, Canada is not the only country in the world with two official languages. Switzerland is one. It would be interesting to discover how they handle their language problem. They have three official languages. I am sure they do not have trilingualists in every position. -

Crackdowns. I had no idea that there was such stuff going on in Canada. I would think that as with affirmative action, if a percentage of the population was such and such, that percentage should be reflected in the jobs available. If 80% of the people were english speaking, 80% of the jobs should go to them, but I guess that is not how it works in Canada. -

ft.niagara replied to Army Guy's topic in Canada / United States Relations
Kind of like the tail wagging the dog, I would say. In my humble opinion, I think separation might be a good thing. In Canada affirmative action is not built on race, but language. You just do not call it affirmative action. In the end, the issue is more than DISCRIMINATION, it is control of the destiny of the country. -

ft.niagara replied to Army Guy's topic in Canada / United States Relations
Our primeminister does NOT legally have to be bilingual; it is just advisable if he wants to get the votes from both. That's the point. There are more English speaking than French speaking in Canada, and probably even fewer bilingual speaking. There would be a greater probability that a French speaking Canadian would be bilingual, and guess what: French speaking control of the Canadian Federal Government. -

With the advent of Rathergate, what constitutes factual claims? Is not one persons personal experiences factual? Look at Mr. anticlimates postings and call them factual, or some of the others. It seems like some use the coat of 'forum rules' to protect them from the harsh wind of truth, when it suits them. -
Why is 9/11 still a big deal?
ft.niagara replied to anticlimates's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Tell the truth, you're a rightwingnut posing as a leftwingnut just to discredit the left, am I right? Leftwing, Rightwing, Mr. anticlimates has done more to discredit the left than 100 Mr. caesars, and Mr. eurekas.
