KipWellsFan Posted January 13, 2005 Author Share Posted January 13, 2005 QUOTE(YASNY @ Jan 13, 2005 -> 10:15 AM) I'm not talking about now. In 1965 your parents would have learned how to goose step. Sure the US has helped us in the past and such but today is a new day. It's time to move on and be more progressive. And progressive isn't having a defense budget of over a trillion dollars.

KipWellsFan Posted January 13, 2005 Author Share Posted January 13, 2005 QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jan 13, 2005 -> 10:17 AM) Which the irony of that is, their entire health system would collapse if it wasn't for American consumers paying higher drug prices so that the rest of the world doesn't have to pay as much for them. American consumers are paying literally subsidizing the R&D and drug prices for the entire world. Well I don't know anything about that but I know Canada would be it complete ruins without the United States. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get tired of mother f***ers bad mouthing the USof A while their country is benefitting just due to our mere presence ... or in the case of the uupity bastards in France, it irregardless of the fact that they'd be goose stepping to a different drummer than Canada would.

YASNY Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Ok ... I took a deep breath or two. I'm sorry, KWF, but Canada may very be a shell of what it is now if it wasn't for the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreye Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Jan 13, 2005 -> 11:06 AM) Another thing thats always interesting is everyone hates America so much but yet when something bad happens who is one of the first contries they run and cry to?? Then when they get helped all they do is b**** and cry about how back America and its people are. If I had my way I would let the world figure out their own damn problems and let America work on its problems and see how that works out.... Amen. A - Freakin' - men!

As long as you acknowledge by covering Canada with our security umbrella, it enables you to spend spend your money on your progressive agenda and not spend evil defense dollars.

Texsox Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 I would like to acknowledge that having a country like Canada sharing such a long border, has been nice and helped both countries. Imagine a cold war with Russia pointing warheads from Windsor instead of Canadian Gentleman's Clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's badmouthing right there. You're calling me a zombie. Yes, this has lots to do with Indonesia - That's part of foreign policy. Helping out in a time of need anywhere in the world.
