Coulter: Canada is "lucky we allow them to exist on the same continent"; Carlson: "Without the U.S., Canada is essentially Honduras"

Quote:

Carlson stated: "Without the U.S., Canada is essentially Honduras, but colder and much less interesting"; he went on to say that instead of following politics, "the average Canadian is busy dogsledding." And on Crossfire, Carlson referred to the "limpid, flaccid nature of Canadian society."

I think Hitler had the same feeling

being zealous about ones country is good - yet not at the expense of another - that is not democracy, instead fascism

Just a thought ... Ann coulter is a master of playing to her crowd - she is a very talanted shit-stirrer and it brings her in the public eye on an almost daily basis. Not to mention it lines her pocketbook very nicely.

And that, my friends, is why the average Canadian hates the Average American. Being an American living in Canada comes with it's baggage. Canadians are very polite and extremely tolerant... but you should hear the stuff they say when they think there isn't one of us around.

Anne Coulter says we're lucky Americans let us exist... she sounds like a Nazi advocating genocide. How is this woman allowed to breathe the same air as the rest of us?

well apparently we're lucky to be breathing the same air as them. P.S. Anne Coulter might need a geography lesson 'cause we're on top :p

The running water thing is great! Who came up with that?

But personally, I am getting tired of eating with my hands. :(
Will one of my friends south of the border please send up some plastic KFS?

I can't friggin stand Ann Coulter... I'd have some choice words for I truly think of her but I'll let your imaginations fill in the blanks.

Ignorance and arrogance are a dangerous combination... throw incompetence into the mix and it makes it deadly.
