And the reason we have SOME people coming to your country for fame and fortune is they can get more attention there because you seem to have an over abundance of people that OBSESS over celebrity, also your media is out of control with reporting on the celebrity. They seem to need the attention and the ridiculous money they are paid for virtually having no ambition to get a real job. But there are some that do stay here and do quite well. And then there are some that go to your country get famous and then return home. - Reply to this comment

"But I am sure you have them: they are just not visible to the rest of the world."
Yes,we do have problems but just not to the extreme like your country. And the reason they aren't so visible is because we don't feel the need to air our dirty laundry to the rest of the world. Also your country is so self obsorbed that it wouldn't see anything even if it was visible.
"...best place on earth to live..."
Oh please! You keep convincing yourself that if that is what you need to do. How could it be the best place on earth to live when you have a pitiful health care system where people are dying from lack health care. You have poorly managed and filthy hospitals. You are being scammed and charged an arm and a leg for your medications. The list is never-ending. You might have people coming to your country because they have heard it is a better life and for some it probably is. But there are a lot of people coming there that are finding out that it isn't all it is cracked up to be and can't leave because they have no more money to get out. - Reply to this comment

Actually, I WISH I could live in denial. I wish I could deny that: Bush is a loser, that his favorite childhood bood was written AFTER he graduated from Yale (which pretty much set the stage for all the events that followed during the past 6 years), that he started a war that we probably won't win in my lifetime (if ever), that Cheney really is a dicck, etc.
I wish I could deny my ex-wife ever existed. Speaking of my ex-wife: She lives in denial pretty well, too. Having married a philanderer and having been presented with sufficient evidence that being married to the "perfect woman" hasn't changed him, like Hillary, she just GAFs it off. She figures it's better to be married to a loser than not married at all. LOL!! Better he than me. - Reply to this comment
- If you people weren't so self obsorbed and started paying attention to how other countries function, you would realize how s-c-r-e-w-e-d up yours was. Take me for instance, just from reading the comments on this website over the past few months I have come to realize how incredibly lucky I am to live in Canada!

Fortunately most of us aren't self-absorbed, only the rich and powerful, and as shown in Nov '06, we do pay attention. We may be a little screwwed up compared to how we could be but this is by far the b-e-s-t place on earth to live and the b-e-s-t system of government under which to live. If I couldn't live here my next choice would be Ireland (not Canada).
Believe me, WE are glad you live in Canada. Pleae stay there (and keep your frigid opinions of us there as well).
If the Canadian system is so great why do Canadian singers and actors come to the U.S. to make their money? - Reply to this comment
- Anyways, you people need to start concentrating on what the person has to offer instead of obsessing over trivial b-u-l-lsh-i-t.

Just goes to show how much you REALLY know about us and our country. Having a "dynasty" isn't trivial *********.
Maybe you should study a little U.S. history before you spew your stupid statements. Better yet, quit criticising our country altogether. As a "foreigner" your opinions of us are "irrelevant" and the "rights" we have here don't apply to you.

- Bill Clinton was president in 1993, the first time the World Trade Center was attacked. Maybe if he would have done something about it back then he could've prevented 9/11. Posted by GunOwnerDan at 09:05 AM : Jul 22, 2007

Actually Clinton did something about it. His admin convicted ten militant Islamist conspirators. Far more than John Ashcroft ever convicted. - Reply to this comment
- "Would a family dynasty like that be acceptable in Canada?" Why would it matter?

Why would it matter in Canada. With 1/10 the population of the U.S., 1/100th the influence in the world, and the Queen as the monarch, you're going to have only a fraction of the problems we have. But I'm sure you have them; they are just not visible to the rest of the world. And certainly not important in the overall scheme of things. - Reply to this comment
- If Hillary becomes president I can guarantee that you will be more liked and respected that you are now!

I can equally quarantee that if anyone who doesn't fancy him/herself as a "war president" becomes president we will be more liked and respected.

I don't think that there is anything that could have been done to prevent 9/11. People hate the U.S. because they have a tendency to contaminate the rest of the world with their ways and views. As long as they hate you, there is NOTHING that will stop them.
"Nothing would encourage muslim terrorists to hate America more than a woman president, especially Hitlery Clinton."
Don't count on it. She could actually be the one to turn things around. So far your country has been run by men.Men have a different mentality than women.With men it is all about their EGOS. That is why everyone carries a gun in your country. And I am not saying that war isn't called for sometimes.Like I believe that going into Iraq to stop Saddam from killing and torturing his people was the right thing to do.(And no I do not believe it was about the oil.)
Anyways, I believe that a woman is going to care more about the PEOPLE. She is going to care more about healthcare and the state of your hospitals etc.
Surely you can't get any worse than you have it now. NOW you are the laughing stock of the world. - Reply to this comment
