Yes, the source is Glenn Beck but I imagine you all can find other sources to corroborate this:

http://www.glennbeck.com/2013/03/21/oba ... ke-canada/

$1:
"Today he said in a speech that the United States of America and Canada, that’s the comparison you look for. You look to the Palestinians and the United States ‑‑ or the Palestinians and Israel; it’s the same relationship as the United States and Canada. That is the most ‑‑ I mean, I apologize to first graders, but that is the most ‑‑ that’s ‑‑ a first grader would make a better comparison than that. That is unbelievable. It shows the man has absolutely no idea what’s really going on,” Glenn said.

“To equate the Palestinians, who are lobbing missiles over the border, to equate them to Canada is beyond comprehension. And if you think that if Canada was bombing our schools, bombing our buses, if you think that we wouldn’t be behaving like Israel times a thousand, this ‑‑ these people would rise up. Americans would rise up and say enough is enough. We would. We wouldn’t have the restraint that Israel has. Because we’ve forced Israel to sit on their hands for so long. We wouldn’t put up with it.”

As bad as the Canada comparison was, Glenn said the most disturbing elements of this story come not from Obama’s words but his actions.

President Obama, who is making his first trip to Israel as the Commander-in-Chief, declined an invitation to speak in fron of the Knesset, Israel’s legislative body. Instead, he spoke to handpicked members of the radical left at a university.

Columnist Caroline Glick explained, “The only revealing aspect of Obama’s itinerary is his decision to on the one hand bypass Israel’s elected representatives by spurning the invitation to speak before the Knesset; and on the other hand to address a handpicked audience of university students – an audience grossly overpopulated by unelectable, radical leftists.”

Glenn said, “I’ll tell you what this president is doing: He is sending a very clear signal to the enemies of Israel: ‘I do not endorse or believe that the Knesset is even legitimate. I am with you. Judea and Samaria belongs to you, not to Israel. And while I could sit here and talk to people like Benjamin Netanyahu, I’d rather talk to you, the radical, because you are the one that has the key to the solution and the future.’ That is exactly what is happening with the president’s trip.”

In her column, Glick pointed out that the last time Obama spoke in the Middle East, he invited members of the Muslim Brotherhood and the radical left to attend his speech in Cairo. Not long after, Egypt was enveloped in the uprising known as the Arab Spring which saw radical Islamists rise to power.

Nice to have Obama compare you good folks to the PLO, Hamas, and Fatah, isn't it? I hope Harper expresses his displeasure to the White House over this slur.

Yeah, it's not quite the same. We actually kicked US ass when they tried to invade us.

Glenn Beck is demented. He also said that Palestine needs a hockey team.

No matter how annoying the kids get, I still have no desire to strap explosives to them and send 'em over the border.

Actually, no I can't. This is what Obama said:
$1:
“We can’t afford to have our kids in bed sleeping and suddenly a rocket comes through the roof, but my argument is even though both sides may have areas of strong disagreement, may be engaging in activities the other side considers to be a breach of good faith, we have to push through those things to try to get to an agreement,” Obama said.

Obama described his vision: “There will be a sovereign Palestinian state, a sovereign Jewish state of Israel and those two states can, I think, will be able to deal with each other the same way all states do.”

And then he invoked this example: “I mean, you know, the United States and Canada has arguments once in a while, but they’re not the nature of arguments that can’t be solved diplomatically.”


So instead of comparing the Canada/US relationship to that of the current Israel/Palestine relationship, what he meant is that our example of how tow neihgbours can disagree without resorting to missile fire.

Thankfully your upstairs with the best view in North America. Poor Poor Mexico is the basement and we in the US are the Meat. I'd like to personally kick our POTUS in the a@@ hard for these comments. It was totally not North American and not representative of all the citizens of Mexico-US-Canada. Let's start a line and will get the Whip ready for the lashing.

He must have looked at a map and thought Canada's about four feet wide and three feet high and all flat, just like fucking Palestine.
