Call me anti US of EH, call me a proud Canadian but sometimes people are so blind to their own countries bad image that the only way they can make themslves feel "better than others" is by pointing the finger at others. What are your thoughts?

{shrug} Baby seals, Iraqi prisoners, pissed off Canadians.... who cares?

I love this country more than any other. But we do have some stupid people. That's for sure. The Canadian senator is exactly right. That's my opinion.

But to say you want to slap "Americans" infers that you think all Americans share her view. Rather than grouping them like that, how about grouping all morons together. Morons come from ALL nations.

 

[CrxCarl]

PETA liberal vs liberal Canadian=lame.
Both are wrong and stupid. if Canada wants to club baby seals, fine with me.
If the United States wants to try and protect the world from terrorism and execute prisoners at home, fine with me.

 

[xxpaulcpxx]

Aww, don't be angry. We know how you Canadians get when yer angry.

Quick, someone get me a baby seal to beat up - I'm angry at Americans again!

 

[coldtotouch]

to be honest, i think America is nuts for voting bush twice...

 

[SETI20]

I hate peope, I like seals.

nuff said.

 

[coz]

Thats ok, we'd just slap ya back... harder.

Carl, that was well put.

 

[baker_jeff]

Hahahahaha. All this over a seal hunt. Good stuff. :lol:

I talk to dumb Americans all day. I see/honk at dumb Canadians all morning and night on my way to and from work.

Dumb people are everywhere. :wink:

Well, thank you.

Who gives a rats ass who comes from where anyway?

Proud americans, proud canadians.
What makes that someone who lives just across the border?

The Iraqis had it coming. The people in Jail are probably there for a reason.
There are American Brittish, Australian Bulgarian, Danish, El-Salvadorese, Estonian, Hungarian, Italian, Kazach, Latvian, Dutch, Polish, Slovakian, Spanish, Thai and Ukranian troops in iraq and afghanistan.

Blame the yanks, and wave a dead bloody seal over your head wrapped in a flag of your choice of nationality.

[childrens voice] We'z can stomp on seals cuz you'z doing so and so! la la lala la!!![/childrens voice]

...politicians.

Bingo.

 

[D_Britt_57]

"The Iraqi's had it coming?" wtf?
Yeah, the 10's of thousands of dead woman and children sure did have it coming.
Out of the frying pan and into the fire.
I still don't understand how anybody thinks that this mess in Iraq (and soon to be Iran) is legal, ethical OR moral.
We are fast approaching 2500 dead American solders and for WHAT??
Oh, right, it makes us safer...har-de-har-har.
Terrorist organizations have PLENTY of recruits now, thanks to little idiot georgie.
No WMD, then it was "the right thing to do", then it was for "freedom".
Tell it to the hundreds of thousands (and STILL counting, to our everlasting shame) dead in DUFAR.
But, they have no stinking OIL.

Oh, and clubbing a baby seal is a sickening act of cowardice, in my book.
Why not try and club a tiger to death? THAT would be sporting.

For the record I had no idea anybody up here did that, lol. :?

When the Hawaiians go pig hunting (the pigs with big tusks), they use dogs to run them to ground.
Then they take a knife and reach in and cut their throat.
I wouldn't get my hand anywhere near those tusks, but they do.

Takes a brave man to do that, clubbing a seal pup, however...

 

[crxfisher]

To be clear, when I said the Canadian senator was right, I meant that she's right that we shouldn't be telling them what to do. I DO think the death penalty is ok, I DO think every American should have the right to own a gun, and I DO believe we should be fighting the terrorists. Now, before today I had never heard of the "baby seal slaughtering" or "seal hunt". The article simply said "seal hunt". And after reading the side article on the hunt itself, I don't see how it's any different than the slaughter houses in the US. You eat chicken, pork, beef, right? Those animals are raised solely for the purpose of being killed. So why is that ok? Heh. This is one of those arguments that never ends. No resolution will ever come of it.

 

[OBD1 Kenobi]

It would be quite inaccurate to want to slap all Americans as that prejudice is no different than slapping one race, gender, etc. I don't like a lot of what American politicians have been doing. However, they are not the only ones; Canadian politicians are compelete asses too. Remember the Gomrey Inquiry? Former PM Paul Martin had his hand in many cookie jars. Remember Brian Mulroney and the Airbus scandal? There are even other countries with political butt-heads. We're just more familiar with Canadian and American circusses.

How about a show that instead of switching spouces, countries switch leaders for a month? I am sure there are many humourous situations you guys can come up with? The prize winner gets baby seal seat covers for their CRX.
