OK. I know you'll hate Biden for his and adore Trump for his. I never cared much one way or the other. Dodging the draft was the national pastime for college kids in the Nam era. I just thought it was funny because the Republicans were the ones who started the "draft dodger" smear with...

Sorry, I'll try not to respond to your actual words any more.

Um. . . yes, you did. Post #80.

True. And it was not imposed by the UN. The Geneva Conventions are also binding on their signatories, and they weren't imposed by the UN.

I suppose if you don't understand the difference between obtaining deferments and obtaining deferments by fraud, that makes sense.

Yep. Entry into the Paris Agreement had nothing to do with UN membership. A UN member country (or non-member country) could sign on or not sign on as it chose. There was one country, you may have heard, that signed on, then pulled out. Total effect on its UN membership? Zero.

No problem, then. Canada's turn'll come around in time.

What UN council is that? Surely you don't mean the Security Council. Its five permanent seats are held by the U.S., Russia, Britain, France, and China. You don't get a permanent seat without being a nuclear power. Is there some other council? Again, I don't understand your objection to the...

Thank you for providing an example of what I said.

I'm dealing with them one at a time. You do realize, do you not, that the UN cannot and does not "tell Canada what to do" in any binding fashion, right? It's a powerless talking shop. The worst you can say about it is that it's a waste of money. But everything the UN "tells" Canada to do...

Lord, Mr Ford How I wish that you could see What your simple horseless carriage has become It seems your contribution to man To say the least, got a little out of hand Lord, Mr Ford, what have you done?

We're seeing down here that your "two provinces" formula basically amounts to 4 or 5 states for us. I still favor direct, national, popular election of the chief executive, though I realize that would require a lot more changes in a Parliamentary system like yours than in ours. Just seems to...

I'm familiar with Agenda 21. What do you dislike about it?

Will Rogers said "The two parties each pick the worst man they can find, then the American people pick the worse of the two."

Allow me to clarify. . . DaSleeper, I'm curious. What is your perception of "globalism," and what problems do you have with it?

Curious. What is your perception of "globalism," and what problems do you have with it?

I see you're answering the Twue Bewievers. Trust me, Sarn't-Major, it's a waste of time. Love seeing you around here, wish you came more often, but. . . "To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is...

Well, that was stupid. There's no reason why, with just a little creativity, this couldn't have been one of the most amazingly profitable and ineffective cash cows in Canadian history.

Now if only we could instill some of that legendary (read: fictional) Canadian politeness. . .

The actual translation is "God is great." DaSleeper lies as needed to support his arguments (such as they are).
