<As to boycotting Canada, I say we go for it. They elected a total nitwit, but I don't hold that against the Canadian people (just as I wouldn't hold Chirac against the French). But when the people begin to SUPPORT these idiots, it is time for Americans to vote with our feet.
Susan Sarandon, an actress whom my wife has always liked, was on no fewer than 3 movies last night. She would not watch ONE of them.
If Americans will behave responsibly and turn away from these foreigners who support our enemies, I believe they will quickly put their financial interests before their disdain for our superior ways of life.
I LOVE to see a creep getting his. And the "French" and the "Canadians" have, pretty much, behaved like "creeps" in my view. >
It's part of our heritage to want to upstage the big dog on the street. The underdogs are always like that.
Americans cannot boycott products from every country that disagrees with them otherwise you'll be eating Spam, Velveeta, burgers and freedom fries and washing it down with your tasty national beverage -- Coke -- for a long time to come.
If we are to have a successful global economy then I think those points cited by Mr. O'Reilly in his article are quite frivolous. I mean, we wouldn't want to talk about the Chinese (favored nation status, WTO stamp of approval etc.). The Chinese are quietly sitting on the sidelines waiting for the rest of the world to implode around America.
Who cares about Susan Sarandon and/or your wife?
By the way David: the entire anthem booing situation was started by Americans booing the Canadian national anthem at a different sporting event and more to the point: who cares about a couple of hundred drunks?
As usual, according to you, the whole world is supposed to follow America blindly. It's those neocons that wrote the new American order so don't think that the rest of the world is not going to change.
You are also forgetting, as is Bill O'Reilly, that some Americans are ratcheting up the rhetoric as well. Mr. Bush canceling his trip will only inflame things further. |
