Jim Carter "The Boat " Bayfield Wow, that's more politeness than I could muster in a month. You Canucks are a bloody treasure! Seriously, though. I was in Montegue Harbor and Sidney BC in the days following 911 and our neighbors to the north were truly sympathetic. There were a few mentions of having hired the village idiot to run the country but that only made me feel more kinship with my northern brothers and sisters. No need to apologize for standing up for your country. jps Well JPS, for a guy who claims to be closely align with Canada, you will never have the class they do. Bill |

Calif Bill
Not nice! But nuts-on accurate. Perhaps you've forgotten Lloyd's incredibly insensitive posts to this group at that time. When he was admonished by numerous regulars of the group at the time (myself included), he claimed to be so emotionally scarred by the backlash that he swore to leave the group and never return. No apology was ever offered, as I recall. Unfortunately, it wasn't long and he was back with his moronic posts and ceaseless anti-American rhetoric. You were here at the time, Bill. I'm surprised that you've forgotten. There's so few of us left here from that time. I may be one of the few that remember. It would make for an interesting Google search. |

jps,
Hope you're not serious about moving to Canada?? That would force a lot of Canadians down here and who wants that? Least of all the Canadians. If serious about Bush I'm afraid you're out of here soon. Are you sure Canada will have you? Don't think you can qualify as a draft dodger, this time. Have you considered Oz? You and Karen could hook up. Make babies perhaps? Wow, what an image. Butch snipI went to school there and get on extremely well with my Canadian brethren. If Bush is elected again, they may have the pleasure of my company permanently. Fortunately for you and the rest of the country, Kerry is going to clean Bush's clock. |

Not to worry...there's always room for progressive minded Americans up here.
The province I live in is just barely keeping it's population figures level at a bit over 900K. JDavis1277 wrote in message ... jps, Hope you're not serious about moving to Canada??

It is the second straight day suspected insurgents attacked where people were applying for jobs with the Iraqi security services. On Tuesday, a deadly truck bombing killed 55 people near a police station south of Baghdad as Iraqi applicants lined up outside. Wednesday's blast happened in front of the Iraqi Army Recruiting Center in central Baghdad, U.S. Army Col. Ralph Baker said. A man drove a white 1991 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera packed with explosives weighing between 300 and 500 pounds that shredded everything in its path, Baker said. A spokesman for the Iraqi Governing Council said the insurgents are trying to "destabilize" the country, but said the attacks won't deter the country's move toward sovereignty. -------------------- Yep, we sho' are winnin' those hearts and minds...

Don,
Do we feel good now that we have thrown a personal insult because we lack the intelligence and integrity communicate effectively? What's going to happen when Canada fills up with all progressive minded individuals? If this comes to pass you will not have any conservatives to confiscate money from to fund your "progressive" programs. Besides Harry has my e-mail address and has communicated, via e-mail, with me personally within the last few months. Bert "Don White" wrote in message ...
