Terror attack via Canada feared

OTTAWA (CP) - It is inevitable that terrorists will consider using Canada as a launch pad for attacks on the United States, U.S. Ambassador Paul Cellucci said Wednesday.

And such an attack would be "catastrophic" to our economic relationship, the ambassador warned a business luncheon as he approaches the end of his four-year appointment.

This is getting a little old..

BLAME CANADA. Holy Man!!!
Cellucci doesn't seem to be able to get over the fact that none of the 9/11 hijackers came to the U.S. through Canada. They came, legally, with visas, directly to the U.S. as visitors and students, from the Middle East, primarily from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Why not bomb Saudi Arabia??

"South Park" seems to be the blueprint for the American Ambassador's approach to Canada. Why not cut though all the B.S. and launch an attack on us, take our oil, gas, water and lumber and be done with it, for God's sake?
Cellucci is just a cat's paw for George Bush and should stop calling himself a diplomat and start calling himself a toady.

Our eyes are too close-set and beady, to be anything other than trouble-makers. That's a sure sign.

JUST A MINUTE. George Bush's eyes are close-set and beady too!!! My God!! What does it all mean????

Means the motherfucker has Canadian genes, is what.

Is there no end to this?? George Bush reminds me of every bully that I remember from my childhood. One difference. They grew up and, for the most part, opened their eyes, even the ones with close-set, beady eyes.
Bush has never HAD to open his eyes. He surrounds himself, deliberately with only those who agree with his view of the world. I find that interesting, in that he had never been outside the U.S. before he was President and certainly, by his own admission, knew nothing about the countries he now calls "the axis of evil". I would like to have been there when it was explained to him that the globe is the same place depicted in the more detailed maps in an atlas. The inmates have taken over the asylum!!!!

Boycott Canada

Long live George Bush!

Better build a wall.

Hurry up and build your wall, before we do.

Don't take this personally. You know I love ya, but...................a pox on you. Damn hockey mess. What am I going to do if there's no hockey?? Woe is me.

October-21st-2004, 01:24 PM

Ah yes, and many of you scoffed at my policy against Canada had I become President.

Who's laughing now, baby!!!

Brador, man I haven't had that stuff since I was a kid. It was a favourite among under-age drinkers since it had a much higher alcohol level than regular beer (can't recall the exact number now).

Anyway, six of those and you would be "drunker than a fart" as we said in those days. Somehow that saying doesn't make a whole lot of sense now, but we laughed our asses off when we came up with it. Might have had something to do with drinking a few too many Bradors??

Anyway, thanks for the memories..

I still say we could use my Mexican border policy on our northern "neighbors" as well.

Round up those dirty border jumpers, load 'em into catapults, and send them Commies home, baby!!

Canadians are so rule-bound that we jump through all necessary immigration hoops to apply for temperary visas to work in the U.S. and go back to Canada when our visas expire.
"Border-jumpers" from Mexico and South America don't bother with visas.
"Visitors" and "students" from Saudi Arabia don't bother to go back home when their visas expire either. They don't have to go to the trouble of sneaking over the Canadian border. They can come to the U.S. directly from Saudi Arabia, with your President's blessing.
Out of curiousity. Why do you think that we are Communists?? Is it because we have a National Health Plan??

The "Frenchy Mind Trick" maneuver only works on those with a mind to maneuver. The jury is still out on whether you have one worth messin' with.

I know but just think of all the lucrative government contracts you could dish out to your pals and nowhere near as many people would moan about it like they do when you have a war.

Bah, to hell with the hall. Whenever they act up, we'll just demolish a neighborhood, eh? Bulldoze some maple trees, eh? Kill a few kids. What the fuck. That'll teach 'em, eh?

Back when I was 19 and 20 years old, Brador was our favorite choice on our trips to Windsor on weekends, where we could buy alcohol. I have some especially wild memories of our time spent at Don Cherry's (the bar, not the man's house, sadly). Brador helped get me through some tough times.

Saying all the wrong things about alcohol,

Works in Iraq, and it works especially well for Israel when dealing with Palestinians, so why not here?

Gary Sisco · October-22nd-2004, 09:35 AM

My point, exactly. And when we're through with a hard day's work demolishing ugly houses painted with bizarre colors, we can drink a case of cold Brador we've looted from the local store -- along with a case of 222s to help the hangover along. or boost the buzz. Whatever we choose.

And it is only "we" who get to choose in this here new world order.

Four more wars!
