What's your opinion on United States Of America?

[CDNBear]

"You're either with us, or against us"...

Ah that infamous bushish.

That would be a Bushism. What's a 'bushish'?

YOU pick sides.

Of course I do. We all do. To say you don't, is to lie.

I refuse to.

Yes you have.

For the record: I would criticize ANY country that behaved like the US behaves.

So you pick a side.

Didn't you just say you 'refuse' to do that?

But the topic is OPINION on the USof A.

Yes it is. I'd love to see your opinion of the US, without all the erroneous claims, rhetoric and stereotyping.

You have your opinions , ( a full on patiot of the US ...it seems which is fine as that is your choice. ) I have mine.

What were you saying about assuming things earlier?

I haven't made my opinion known. All I've done was address the ignorance in the usual rhetoric and false claims of being about a united world of people. Set back and aghast at the big bad Satan, the USA.

Therefore I must be an American patriot and completely unCanadian.

Think about your commentary for a second. I might have to ask you if you read what you write, before you post it. Your posts are so fully of logical inconsistencies, they're comical.

Which myth is better? Colpy's or yours?

Neither. When it comes to Myths............ "the american dream" wins hands down.

..........as it is only a DREAM and not a REALITY. But heck....... we all need our wishful thinking and fantasies.

( don't take the above literally ;-)

 

[CDNBear]

Neither.

I already knew that.

( don't take the above literally ;-)

Why? It's the most honest thing you've claimed about yourself. The fact that you realize it and have yet to try and fix that error, is puzzling.

How about you tell us.

Anyone that defends the US so emphatically has an emotional attachment there. Which is fine .

That is your choice.

Yes, I am critical of the US . I do not like what it has become. It is truly a militant war loving aggressor.

The negatives and destructive elements out weight the positive now.

Do I trust the US ?? Not a chance. It is too hypocritical and yesterdays friend is today's enemy and a target for invasion.

Does it behave like a responsible world power?? NO. it does not. It behaves like a greedy immature , I want to control the whole world , have it my way all the time , take no prisoners toddler.

I would love to see it a hundred years from now. IF it has not bombed the planet into oblivion.

I already knew that.

that was a cartoon. get it.???



Now back to topic.

 

[lone wolf]

America's problems are the same as Canada's. It's not the people. It's the ones who make decisions from vantage points insulated from the reality of people....

 

[CDNBear]

How about you tell us.

Would you actually like me to tell you...

Anyone that defends the US so emphatically has an emotional attachment there. Which is fine .

...or would you like to continue on with your conjecture?

Yes, I am critical of the US . I do not like what it has become. It is truly a militant war loving aggressor.

Do you know what "foreign policy" is?

Do you understand how your generalizations encompass people just like you, as well as people that actually want world peace?

that was a cartoon. get it.???

Yes, which is why I said...

Why? It's the most honest thing you've claimed about yourself. The fact that you realize it and have yet to try and fix that error, is puzzling.

I would worry more about those who would like to restrict free speech in Canada than any person.I wonder who the dinks really are? Ann Coulter is Ann Coulter, just ignore her if you don't like her, she is harmless and no one is forced to listen to her.

that is exactly what I do. Mind you, some find her amusing. I don't. she is just too caustic.

She might have something of value to offer in her diatribes..........but her presentation is such a turn off, i go onto auto tune out.

Oh well....

Why? It's the most honest thing you've claimed about yourself. The fact that you realize it and have yet to try and fix that error, is puzzling.

************ you don't know any of the above for a fact. YOU take a cartoon at face value??? Sorry, that you have n sense of humor and can't even appreciate a cartoon. sheesh.

There's no such nation as Amerikkka, your spelling is simply atrocious. If you are refring to America, I'm far more well aware of the history involving Natives in the US, than you. And I do not support a culture that was not favourable towards Natives. I live in the here and now, and defend a nation of individuals, that are the recipients of your childish hatred.

Why would that history make me act like a moron like yourself?
Why shouldn't I hate Canada as well?
Should I hate you too, since you likely live on absconded land, reaping the benefits of a nation built on our ruin?
Why should I be stuck in the past like you and not move forward in a healthy manner?

I don't believe you should hate Canada or Amerikkka for the past, but to vehemently support it to your death is unbelievable.
I think the native culture is amazing and what we did to the great native american culture in the past is vile and disturbing as hell..
apparently you think otherwise.

Who is this Carlson character? He seems half-retarded ...

Yeah if you have ambition in the entertainment industry, otherwise it's probably easier to find work in Canada, lower unemployment rate here.



Canada: the largest electricity supplier to the United States

Canada and the United States share an integrated electricity grid and supply almost all of each other’s electricity imports. Canada is a major supplier of electricity to New England, New York, the Upper Midwest, the Pacific Northwest and California.


Canada: the largest natural gas supplier to the United States

Canada is the third-largest natural gas producer in the world, producing 5.6 trillion cubic feet per year. Canada is also the world’s second-largest exporter of natural gas.

In 2009, Canada provided 87% of all U.S. natural gas imports, representing 12% of U.S. consumption.

Canadian exports of natural gas go primarily to the U.S. Northeast, Midwest, Rocky Mountains, California and Pacific Northwest.


New England would be in the dark without Canada.




Not likely, :lol:. Canada triples Norway's active personnel and Canada's militarily expenditure is 3x more than Norway's. Not to mention the availability of Canada's men and women far exceeds Norway's.


I don't know if this moron believes what he's spewing or if he's just trying to be controversial to get attention, either way he's a douche.




You're a moron and so is the idiot who gave this post a thumbs-up, you should be embarrassed.
No one at the University threatened her, as far as I remember it was a letter making her cognizant of hate-speech laws so she doesn't get herself into some trouble, because they know she likes saying some completely idiotic things.

You are confusing them with FACTS. Not sure they can handle it.

I appreciated the cartoon. The fact that I read and reply to your posts proves I have a sense of humour.

I don't believe you should hate Canada or Amerikkka for the past, but to vehemently support it to your death is unbelievable.

You keep saying I support the US, but I have said anything at all in support. Just questioned your childish hate.

I think the native culture is amazing and what we did to the great native american culture in the past is vile and disturbing as hell..

That's the past.

apparently you think otherwise.

Can you quote me on that? Or this more of your imagination?

I really wish one of you guys would have a reasonable, reality based conversation.

As entertaining as your imaginations are. They aren't very stimulating.

You are confusing them with FACTS.

Can you please quote one of us that said any of what Tucker said was true?

Not sure they can handle it.

Handle what? Your imagination?

That's all I've been doing.

The United States stood firm and spearheaded the stand against the USSR.........a nation that murdered many more people than Nazi Germany.....while Canada spent the last part of that Cold War hiding under the American wing.

Hiding? Canada couldn't afford to hide, they had their own problems of espionage. Igor Gouzenko - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Canada never gave into the demands of the yanks either, I applaud Trudeau for having the brains to remove the U.S nuclear weapons off of Canadian soil ... Trudeau was a great man, the greatest prime minister Canada ever had.

 

[ironsides]

rofl, go to Haiti and talk to the people there and ask how their "aid" is helping them :lol: :lol: .. i'll tell you, it doesn't help them at all.. why? because it doesn't even get to them.. that's right the Haitian leaders and corrupt politicians horde that **** for themselves, brings me back to that greed and materialism i was talking about...




I'm not greedy nor materialistic, that's rare in the western world.



.. :lol:
So cliche.

I'm not sure you actually know how bad the devastation in Haiti really was, all the money and time donated is only a drop in the bucket compared to what is needed to rebuild the country. The United States has given all Haitians who arrived in the country a immigration extension, all except those who have been convicted of a felony or two misdemeanors have till January 22, 2013. Haiti is rebuilding, is there still graft and corruption, yes, but not as much.

Okay that's it. Golf ball sized hail, 4 NATO planes in formation buzzing the city. OMG they are bombing the Rider game for our oil!

If you knew all the little dirty deeds that the US was doing here, with the knowledge of the Trudeau gov't, you might change your tune. But I doubt it.

You are far to much like Ocean Breeze's cartoon.

Corruption is rampant, the Haitians in need are only benefiting from a fraction of the aid that was given, most of its lost to corruption.

COULTER: They better hope the United States doesn't roll over one night and crush them. They are lucky we allow them to exist on the same continent.


the key word is "allow". It is all about power and control. ( with a good dose of arrogant sense of entitlement thrown in)

oh well..........takes all kinds. and the media seems to be made up of a lot of them.

You are far to much like Ocean Breeze's cartoon.


..........as are you and everyone else that is an individual with their own world view based on whatever influenced them.


so null and void.

 

[YukonJack]

Uh-huh.

The United States has been our closest ally since 1941. They have fought side-by-side with us in a number of conflicts, as we are doing right now in Afghanistan.

The United States and Canada share a continent.........we are tied together by both economics and military treaty, by family ties and friendships that cross the border, and by a common democratic heritage that focuses on English common law and individual rights.

The United States rebuilt Europe and Japan after World War Two, despite Japan and Germany hving been her enemy.

The United States stood firm and spearheaded the stand against the USSR.........a nation that murdered many more people than Nazi Germany.....while Canada spent the last part of that Cold War hiding under the American wing.

It is, was, and always will be "us" against "them". When we cease to see that, all the good things we have built are in serious danger.......

It is not insane to believe otherwise.....I do not pretend to be all-knowing........but it is stupid to hold our best friends in contempt......perhaps you should take a long look at the up-and-coming super power.....then tell me the Chinese would be the better "greatest power".

Right on, Colpy!

Yankee-bashers always resort to the 'you should go and live in Amerikkka, etc, etc.' when they are bankrupt of any logical argument to justify their irrational and unreasonable fear and hatred of anything and everything American.

Meanwhile, it s safe to assume that they watch TV programs, movies made in America (some may have been made, directed, etc. by Canadians, whom these azzhats probably consider traitors for earning their livelihood in the States), they listen to American music, they probably drive an American designed and built car, eat vegetables and fruits produced in the States, and love all Americans who love China and Cuba.

They also forget when they accuse America as invaders of other lands, that invaders STAY in and rule land they conquered, while America rebuilds the vanquished, as they did with Japan and Germany and furthermore as in the case of Germany, America goes out of her way to offer the hand of friendship as they did in the Berlin Airlift after WWII.

Don't waste another word on them. Their minds are like concrete, all mixed up and permanently set and they are not worth your time and effort. They, like the hypocrites that they are, accuse and ridicule Americans for being proud of their country, forgetting that Americans - unlike these phony boloney uber patriot so-called Canadians - are patriots without besmirching others.
