O'Reilly is a cockbite too. I just love this little one - http://mediamatters.org/items/200412070004. Just because they have to slightly clean it up for FOX, attitudes like that clearly offer a glimpse into the general opinion of FOX newscasters.

As for who needs who, we need each other. And all of this arguement over who needs who and who's more important than who is just rediculous.

As far as I'm concerned, I love Canadians. I've got no reason not to. I seriously don't understand where all of the negative energy surrounding our two nations is coming from, but I hope that it gets better; because if it stays the way it is, we could be seeing a conflict right in our own backyard.

Dude, he really wasn't being rude to the person as far as I'm concerned. He wasn't talking down to him about being a Jew, he just said that you can't stop people from sharing Christmas feelings with everyone, and if hearing about and having Christmas in his life was to offensive, that he had to go to Isreal because Christmas ain't changing.

Anyway, the point I'm saying is that he was nothing like that crazy Anne Coulter lady.

I have just started reading this thread but I thought I should post a reply before I go out for breakfast.

Here's a thread from another forum that I was on.

http://forums.vogue.com.au/showthrea...hlight=coulter

Ann Coulter is an extremist for the right wing like how Michael Moore is for the left. So naturally her views will be slightly different from the rest. Okay, maybe 'slightly' is an understatement.

Here's another link:
http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/fea...terwisdom.html

I just realised that this is a highly incoherant post. Can't blame me... It's 6.30am and I just got off an 8-hour bus ride from Singapore. I'll try to edit it soon if I ever get sober today

Wow. OK first stop the arguing. Second Canada nneds the US and the US needs us, there is no other way. Third Why do you think Britain would attack us?!?! We were once part of Britain and we formed our own country with permission and no bloodshed unlike some countries.

I'm not going to start harping on the who needs who more argument, because as much as I do like Canada (I lived there for almost 3 months while on business) that answer is kind of obvious, honestly.

My point is that there is a double standard that I'm seeing here. The comments made by Coulter and Carlson were made by two conservative pundits, not American reporters or American politicians.

Meanwhile, Canadian POLITICIANS have said much more hateful and insulting comments about the US (I believe the one lady called us all "morons") and I don't see any outrage about that.

Meanwhile two conservative columnists make a few comments about what is essentially a trade imbalance and add humor that is a bit inappropriate but pales in comparison to the straight insults that have been hurled at our country and its leader by Canadian officials and reporters, and we have a three page thread condemning the conservatives while those that incessantly America bash get off scott-free.

Congratulations, liberal America! You've become the new thought police! Maybe you were right about the Orwellian nature of our future, but I'm sure you never thought it would be YOU imposing it.

I actually kind of agree with Strangler. We don't need Canada. I don't have anything against Canada, I'm just saying we really don't have to have it to get by.

Someone could **** up and hit your house with a missle. Somone could **** up and plow into the side of your car on the way to work. Someone could **** up and cause a lot of problems.

I would love it if all of the US's power was nuclear. It would be a lot cheaper, and we won't run out for a very very very long time. Nuclear power is the future. You just have these misinformed people out there that are terrified by the thought of it.
