OK, take Gould out while you are at it.

NYOB,
How about if you first take out all the liberal wackos in rec.boats?
Once
you have purged rec.boats you can then bomb Nova Scotia.

PS while you are at it, bomb the French Canadians also.


Make sure Don White is there when you do it.



Regular right wing love fest, it is.

Idiot. If you had your way, you'd bomb everything and everybody that
doesn't have a Bush/Cheney sticker. You know they are traitors, if
they don't have one, right?




Nuke'em NOYB is quite a piece of work. Right now we have four cruise

ships,
including the QM2, docked at our downtown. If he bombed us, he'd be

killing
thousands of his fellow citizens.


Don,
Although many Canadians might not like Americans very much right now, deep
down I know that you guys have no permanent feelings of hatred towards us...
nor do we have it towards you. I also know that the strong dislike you
harbor could never evolve into what we saw on 9/11. Conversely, Muslims are
easily swayed into committing unspeakable acts of violence against
non-Muslims...going so far as to stab and shoot kids in a Russian school
just because the kid asked for a drink. When I talk about nuking a Middle
Eastern country, I say it with all seriousness and gravitas. When I talk
about bombing Nova Scotia, I say it just to get a rise out of you.

Who has feelings of 'hatred' or 'strong dislike'?
Just consider me as the busy body cousin who thinks it's his duty to save
you from yourself. Our ties with New England go back to the days when we
were all colonies. As a matter of fact, my home town was founded to protect
new England from the French. I can't speak for all Canadians, but can tell
you that Americans are always welcome in the Maritimes.
Did you know that before 9/11 Halifax was a favorite R&R destination for
your navy ships. On the Coral Sea's last trip, the captain asked the crew
where on the east coast they wanted to R&R. They voted Halifax because they
rembered their visit a year or two previous.

Never buy anything british.


Why?


"Why do Brits like their beer warm?"
"Because they have Lucus refridgerators."

Maybe we should have picked up a couple from the Russians.

We got suckered by a low ball offer...but now the costs of updating to
Canadian standards are adding up.


Hey, c'mon over the West Coast - we have some great aluminum ferries to
sell you, cheap! (actually, we sold them for about $1 to the original
builder, who flipped them to another country for millions. I'm not making
this up...)

Maybe we could have refitted them with some "ballast" (I suggest the
people who suggested the idea in the first place) and convert them to subs...

Hey Lloyd. We sent one of the subs over your way...HMCS Victoria, I believe.
Keep an eye out for it. You might get a chance to claim salvage if the crew
abandons her on the high seas..
