Fox's Bill O'Reilly is on a hell bent campaign to get people to start boycotting products from any country that doesn't cooperate with the U.S. including Canada. Good gawd, if he gets his way, we'll be left with none of our own resources and dependent on everyone we snubbed for having their own opinion.

Hehe, don't worry, he will never get his way. See my other thread about it, even the company he works for signs deal with French companies. This guy is a clown who has no sense of reality.

"a clown who has no sense of reality" ROFL, yeah I hear ya!
"You have a right to your opinion" (but only if you agree to let me step all over it, and butt in on your voicing it to debunk it with my own before I call you insane for having it) ;)

I had no idea that they were that close, thanks for the info! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

I thought Clinton was a great president. Sure he had some issues (who doesn't) but overall I think he was a boon for the US and I wish Canada had a Prime Minister like Clinton.

Clinton was one of the most popular presidents since JFK...not that he was as great a leader as JFK, but nearly as popular with the public. I liked him. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Canadians provide aid for Iraq, we still support the war on terrorism, but we question the morals and intentions of this war against Iraq. Now that there is talk of "who's next" it becomes a very scary proposition, akin to the old Spanish Inquisition.

Yeah, the who's next talk has me on edge, esp since the Bush admin has spun their reasons behind going into Iraq so hard and so fast that they seem to believe every new rumor and lie.
I think they may have bitten off more than they can chew by proposing a democracy in Iraq, but we'll see....if it is really what they want and American companies can keep their fingers on only just a piece of the oil pie, it may actually work...but in years, not months as they are predicting.

You are American, so you are safe. The position of "with us or against us" reminds me of a certain figure from the late '30's, early 40's.

Funny, I don't feel safe. ;) I am not worrying though...crying today over what could happen tomorrow only makes today suck. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
