Disclaimer-When I use the word american, I am regarding it to the Government and not the population. If you guys keep electing lunatics I may change my opinion of you.
I haven't seen this topic here, as there seems to be only a few Canadians in this community, so I thought I'd bring it up to see what you guys might think.


Seeing as how I rarely watch either Fox or CNN, I can only repeat what everyone else says about them. "Pure propaganda".
As for Tucker Carlson, the egocentric opinionated conservative commentary host that is shown on both of them, his remark about "the retarded cousins up north", really shows how isolated the americans are. If anyone even shows a glimps of disagreement with them they strike out like an insecure over-domineering bully of a friend, that is just looking out for its oun interests.

Well, someone could see evidence of fascist tactics, or extremism if you prefer.
Though I am not in favour of the current administration, not for the exact same reasons one might think, you do have to take people's opinions with a little salt, don't you think?

Don't worry, GW cannot be re elected, and unless either the Reps promote McCain or the Dems go back to the 2004 ticket, changes will come in some parts, perhaps even to usa/canada relations.

Americans are just jealous. I've met just as many Canadians as Americans and the Canadians were much nicer people. I mean how could you hate someone with such an odd accent. One of the best teachers I've ever had was Canadian, she taught my English class, ah we got into some pretty big arguements. LOL

What a interesting acusation Scarecrow considering the point of this topic was the American government, not the people.
Unless you cease with this prejudice, I will be forced to contact a admin and request this topic be closed.

I do care for people's own opinions, but OFFENDING people is STRICTLY against the rules as noted in the agreement, if you are immature enough to state such a completely vile comment against a majority of people then I suggest you stop immediatly and not even share your opinions on these matters, since I do not care for political Nazis.

Yes, "Americans are just jealous" is a little thing, but none-the-less, not even being American myself, I was incredibly offended by such a comment, refrain from posting anything like that in the future.

It sadly will be another election till I can vote but trust me once I am 18 and have enough money I will see you in south korea. That is unless the climate changes and it is not as exceptale to be a gamer (haha don't count on it)

But remember some democrats should never be voted for. Like leiberman and hilary clinton. The two biggests censorship freaks.

Although I do not approve of the presidents recent tactics. (calling democrats trators) I don't believe it was a conspracy. Gw is just to stupid to know that iraq has nothing to do with terrorists.

As a Canadian, I have only this to say Blood-Piggy; truth hurt isn't?

Yes, Americans (or the vast, very vast majority of them) are jealous. Because the Americans grown with the impression that everything belong to them, and that everything is best made American... But that's a bold lie and a bold illusion. That's the "American dream" in a way, but it's also a big illusion.

I always said and will always continue to say; Americans have the best of everything. They also have the best idiots and the best worst things in the whole world.

As for the subject in the first post; I could not care less. That's politics for you, that's not worth much.

This thread should be closed or else things will get out of hand.

I advice everyone here to stop this "discussion".

Well how America's treating the whole world is disturbing(and not just lately but since USSR is gone), so Canada is no exception there
