AND!!! The USA IS NUMBER 1!
Of course I speak as am American...and I will defend your right to feel that way about Canada. You're still a great man!
where did I say the USA was not #1? No where...nada...
If you are an American of course it is.....gee whiz...
A little sensitivity course is in order I think...*LOL*
No not really Hawk...I read a definition of how a conservative doesn't like change...and took it a step further....
I wish sometimes this was a more international site so there'd be more opinion from other countries so I wouldn't get slammed so much....I guess being the only Canadian in here...I am at a disadvantage... As I can see America from a different angle....perspective lets say....not badly either, just different.
If there was say an Italian in here and a Spaniard and a Brit...they'd say their country is the greatest...it is to be expected...we all have country pride and that is a good thing...![]()
First off conservitive does NOT mean never changing. Second, it makes NO difference to me what Spain, Italy or Canada wants to do. Their way of life is what THEY want, Ours is ours. It does NOT mean it is better, just OURS!! Many of us are NOT willing to live under "RULE" as Europe has done for ions. We LIKE a bit loose. The challenge making it on your own. ANY bum can be taken care of. ONLY the BEST can make it on their own. Too bad that the BUMS seem to be in the majority now. Lazy is a waste of life. Only lazy accepts socialism. Socialism assumes that you are not capable to make it without the help of a benevolent government.
Funny you mention that. The first question I answered on yahoo answers pertained to Europeans' view of the US. You wouldn't believe the crap they said. I answered with the typical "If it weren't for us you'd all be speaking German", and one had the nerve to blame us for WW2, because if we kept our nose out of WW1, Hitler would've never come to power. Umm... we were asked to enter WW1, just as we were WW2. But anyway, yahoo is full of know-nothing teenagers anyway.

A teacher asked three students: a Jewish, an Irish, and an Italian kid where their fathers would hide a bike as the childrens' holiday gift.
The Jewish kid said, "In the attic, cause that's where the antiques are, and I'm not allowed up there."
The Irish kid said, "In the basement, cause that's where the liquor is, and I'm not allowed in the basement."
The Italian kid said, "In his pants."
"In his pants?", the teacher asked.
"Yeah. He'd tell me <grabbing his package>, 'I got your bike right here!'"

HEY, OVM!! Did you NOT notice that THIS American is NOT good at sensitivity? LOL!! I TEND to be more like IN YOUR FACE!! Just a little!!![]()
AND THAT is where it should end too. As to our food, our government only regulates the trade, somewhat, private industry does the actual trading. As to the strong military, it used to be. You are correct, it is all done thru, and only WITH, the consent of the People, as least for now. That IS how it should be.
of a 20 yr old, a glare in his eye as he mutters OBama 08 I live to hate...we all have country pride and that is a good thing...![]()
Ok I have to eat..where is LRE to take over sparing with you guys? *LOL*
American citizens have the right,a constititional right,to a free and open press.
Reporters who are trying to get the story right sometimes risk it all to bring it home.
Having Bill avaialable and willing to put on a two hour puppet show to bring these two brave women home has zero to do with his bad choice in a private matter.
