"Frankly I don't want closser integration with Canada. The last thing the US needs are a bunch of elitist brain-dead zombies who like being told what to do by the government. I'll just try to counter the accusation which this Canadian Retard leveled against the US. "
Your premise suits me fine but your reasons don't. it sounds like why should we work more closely with xenophobic rightwing redneck pricks lead by a tard who could not run a popsicle stand. sterotypes are terrible.
"Yeah we don't buy into Junk Science like Global Warming/Global Cooling (depending what mood the Anti-Capitalist sect of the scientific community feels). Its a half-assed theory made up by some hacks who want to slow down the counsumerist trend."

It comes from American scientists. Not the ones paid by your large gluttonous corporations or working directly for george Hockey helmet.

I realise the American academy of science and arts may be a little elitist for you but give it a whirl. Both reports are written by knowledgeable reasonable people. You won't find them on Fox so savour the novelty.
"You have to take account many factors:
1. The dotcom bubble bursting. Resulting in a huge decrease in Tax Revenue and Capital.
2. 9/11 and the military spending needed fight terrorisma and beefing up the military.
3. A depressed Market Panic after 9/11
4. Massive spending by Congress on bullshit social programs (Senior Citizens Drug Prescriptions)
Were not in deficit becuase were not taxing enough....but because were spending too much. "
The dotcom bubble acounts for how much lost tax revenue?
The military has actually sufferred in it's conventional arms as money flows into bullshit like Iraq and BMD which equla more money spent with less efect on the ground. how about that raptor as well. The buzillion dollar lawn dart being built to fight what the eagle cannot already handle? In short military spending increased but you actually lost miltary capabilty in real terms. Ask any poor bastard scrouning in a dump in Iraq to uparmour his vehicle or the guys using plywood and sandbags to uparmour old M113 carriers. they might be safer if they shoved their head as far up their ass as you have.
The market was depressed and a large part of that is your stupid fucking prseident. Anybody for a yellow alert. We think something may happen and we don;'t know what or where but be on the lookout and keep spending money. What insane bullshit.
Your defination of bullshit spending includes drugs for seniors. these are the people who built your country and defended it during the past. they desesrve something you heartless prick.
"Yeah "hard-won" no thanks to you pricks. Anyway...The Patriot Act simply extended government powers into a specific area. The long and short of it, the RICO can be used against suspected terrorists as well as Organized Crime figures. Otherwise nothing has been threatned. You can still criticize the government, you can march for your opinions, you can call the President every name in the book and no one will show up at your doorstep to arrest you for doing so. "
Read a history book or a newspaer you cracker bastard. We did our bit in both world wars and we worked well with Americans up to this day in things like NORAD and NATO. have you ever served in the military or done anything besides shooting off that huge hole bewtween your nose and chin. I really don't give a shit about your patriot act as i live in Canada where we don't feel the urge to set up Gulags like the one you have in Cuba. We still have some respect for what we are supposed to be protecting.
" Besides...the ends justify the means" You are quoting a poltical philosopher who died in poverty because he was turned on by those he sought to suck up to by writing "The Prince". Thats Niccolo machiavelli and he does not work in the pizza place down the street by the way. The idea we have to become minless butchers takes away the Wests moral high ground and is counterproductive to getting the cooperation you need to gather intelligance to really find terrorists. In short it is a stupid philosophy quoted by an idiot.
"
"Mainstream media" like who? CNN (Clinton News Network), The New York Times? CBS? ABC? NBC? LA Times? Chicago Tribune? USA Today? MTV?
My god...ONE Convervative news outlet pops out and Liberals begin shitting themselves! You have all the other networks..let us have one for fuck's sake."
You can have it and furthermore stick it up your ass. There is better news content on the Simpsons and they are funnier too.

In general, the Americans have given the finger to the international community.
Hell Yeah!!
I hope yoyu are as happy when that same world turns it back on you as your econmy collapses under a massive debt and out sourcing to China as you watse your lives and money in Iraq, Better take some mandarin lessons as they will be owning your ass in a few years you dumb shit.
The rest of your drivel is just too boring to even comment on.
Cheers
