When you claim you're defending us, you're only doing it for yourselves, certainly not us. You literally don't want to be able to see Russia from your front porch.
So, keep your mergers, your gun culture, your rabid and religious Republicans.. We want no part of it.
Does Canada have anything even remotely resembling the rednecks and bible thumping faction that endlessly attempts to insert itself into government that we are unfortunate enough to have here? I'm thinking not. Lucky Canadians.

Yeah, they have their share of rednecks. Alberta might as well be Alabama.

Their big cities are cooler than ours though.

We have some cowboys out west, but they're harmless.


Bible-thumping factions? Hard to tell. People mostly keep their religion to themselves. They certainly aren't vocal about it, and you never hear a deity mentioned in government. We would never have a Parliamentary session opened with prayer.

We'll keep the figurehead and watch your congressional follies on the telly for Monty Python like humour.

Now once again who started this particular country bashing session; why goodness me it was the "numero uno's".
Are you kidding? Labatts tastes worse than the City of Victoria's untreated sewer water.

What was I laughing at? Your contention that you'd bet Herman Cain's IQ is 50 points higher than Obama's. Please don't derail this thread. If you want to argue about Cain, this isn't the place to do it.
