OT- The first words out of Bush's mouth after his inaugoration[sic] were"we are in a recession" made to justify his call for a major tax cut. We believe the US economy and the Internet bubble was already burst but the Preident's attitude DOES have a major effect on people's perception and the American economic decline is much worse because of Bush's statements and actions.
We actually are supportive of the US stand re Iraq and terrorism. Canadians fought in 2 world wars [in both cases 2 YEARS before the US got involved ]and we fought in Korea as well to protect others and the values we cherish. We don't need a 9/11 to show our concern for the plight of others-eg our roll in peace keeping. But at some point the evil people[ who do exist in this world] must be stopped.

We saw what appeasement in the 30's allowed Hitler to wreck and nearly destroy our way of life. The UN is a collection of more dictators than democracies and thank goodness the USA has the moral initiative to take a stand now.

Sure there is exploitation by US oil interests [note that Haliburton has alraedy been granted the lead roll in looking after Iraq oil fields after they are "liberated'] But we feel Bush is more motivated by his correct belief that evil men must be stopped BEFORE they enact their evil than in resposnse.Enough for todays's sermon.
