Try biology.

K, you might wanna sit down Gonz (case you fall over from shock ;)), because I am going to say that I totally agree with you on that one dude. :D

No, they aren't at fault....How the heck could they be? MacDonalds isn't at fault for cooking up the "one hamberger too many" for the guy who has a heart attack. Car manufactutrers aren't at fault for incidents of road rage. The architects of tall buildings and bridges aren't at fault if...

Well I'm a parent, last I checked. I am also a person who breaks out into a rash whenever anyone uses the word "censorship". Of course your kids are going to get exposed to this stuff even if you don't have it in the house. But you know what? It's *still* up to you as a parent to make sure...

And the French hate french Quebecers even more. Something about "uncouth country bumpkins" and a linquistic embarassment that have bastarzed the purity if the French language. Or something else all warm and fuzzy to that effect :D Not pointing out a pattern of ethnocentricity here or...

What he said, but so much better than I could :D

I searched google and found a link to a transcript of an editorial I recall being talked about, given by a man named Gordon Sinclair (Sr.), a well respected Canadian journalist, and the father of another well respected Montreal journalist, both of whom have unfortunately passed away. Anyway...

Yep, and I apologize for that. Now,to go completely off topic for just a second (imagine that!!) Dude! Is that a mounty smiley? Cooooool! *steals mounty smilie for her own nefarious purposes (least I think its a mounty smiley* :D Edited to add (cause i just read it :D) Oh and Gonz...

?? Um first off dude, chill. Joke, for Gonz. Funny, hence the smilie. Laugh a little, it'll make you feel better. And neither myself nor my children have ever booed any sports team from any country becaue I think thats crappy-assed sportsmanship and politics don't belong in the arena. And so...

Show my appreciation how, exactly? You want I should send you flowers or something? :D No one has criticized US humanitarian efforts, or denigrated the US contribution to victory in both world wars. I *am* however allowed to disagree with US foreign policy, because that is my prerogative...

No, you didn't Gonz did. Which is why I asked " What are you arguing and whom are you defending" This debate came about because of a whose body count was bigger than whose comment as well as some comments that belittled the contribution of international forces to the war effort. Which is...

Actually, I'm going to add: Not once, anywhere, did I say that the US contribution to WWII was not both needed and essential to victory. Not once did I say anything that disrespected the US military and US sacrifice. Read back. Who was disrespecting who??? Canada was only good for adding...

um...... And? This has what to do with either US arrogance or international participation in WWII???

No. You are called arrogant because you make comments like those I quoted in my first post.

Ok seriously dude. Who exactly is downplaying who's role in WWII? Have you not just prior to this post been arguing that the US won WWII and that all other participants had a negligible impact on the outcome except to contribute to the body count? And now you say: (and I quote) "The...

Again I ask: You are saying the US declared war to help Europe and Britain? Not because of a threat to US soil and US freedom? And again, are we re-writing history?

um.... Put it on the line for Britain? Are we rewriting history now? The US entered WWII to save Britain?

:rolleyes: You want stats?? You really wanna play the game of "We lost 0.00465% more troops than you did?? Come on man. Geezus. Population in 1944: Canada: 11 946 000 US: 138 397 000 Australia: 7 310 000 oh and Great Britain: 326,000 Casualties Population in 1944: 49...

Dunno the last time Canada required foreign aid or was attacked and needed US intervention or *begged*for US arms . :shrug: I see. Our existance as free countries was bought by the blood of an international coalition of soldiers, who fought for that freedom, and died for it. Lest we...

*sigh* There is no irony in the fact that a Canadian produced show doesn't air on any Canadian networks, is there? I hope to catch it on SPACE when it airs here :)
