"What does a proud American or conservative have to do with you being full of sh*t?" You have shown nothing that says I am "full of shit". I believe in the 2nd ammendment, you don't. And to you that makes me an idiot. Well, that makes a lot of idiots, including our President. Didn't you say you supported him? "You are nothing more than a NRA worshiper!" Not a worshiper, but I support their cause. Protect the 2nd ammendment and provide gun safety classes. Both good. And they are the best at it. "To protect your family, right." And myself and my property. "You have never had to protect your family" Because you never protect your family, don't lie about others. Lying makes you look like the idiot that you are. No bullshit here. Just exposing another hater on the interenet.

Bush-hating expats," "Multicultural mealymouths," "Molson-drinking Zamboni drivers," and "Gordon Lightfoot lovers." Just a few of the descriptions of our neighbors to the north culled from this week's "Weekly Standard" cover story, "Welcome to Canada: The Great White Waste of Time." "Whenever I think of Canada ... strike that. I'm an American, therefore I tend not to think of Canada," begins senior writer Matt Labash. "On the rare occasion when I have considered the country ... I've regarded it, as most Americans do, as North America's attic, a mildewy recess that adds little value to the house, but serves as an excellent dead space for ... drawing-room socialists, and hockey goons." The article concentrates both on "disillusioned Americans" such as Christopher Key, descendant of "Star-Spangled Banner" writer Francis Scott Key, who have been "running for the border in protest" since President Bush's re-election. "All the voices of moderation -- Colin Powell -- were going to be replaced by yes-people like Condoleezza Rice," Mr. Key explains on leaving his homeland. "It's going to get worse." And what's so wrong, offers American expat Lorraine Wright, about Americans' abandoning America? "America is built on people leaving places," she reminds Mr. Labash.
