Canadian's Version of David Letterman's Top 10 Just makes you wanna shake your head in disbelief. This is Canada's Top Ten List of America's Stupidity Of course we look like idiots ..... because we are.

Number 10
Only in America could politicians talk about the greed of the rich at a $35,000.00 per plate Obama campaign fund-raising event.

Number 9
Only in America ...could people claim that the government still discriminates against black Americans when they have a black President, a black Attorney General and roughly 20% of the federal workforce is black while only 13% of the population is black 40+% of all federal entitlements goes to black Americans - 3X the rate that go to whites, 5X the rate that go to Hispanics!

Number 8
Only in America...could they have had the two people most responsible for our tax code, Timothy Geithner (the head of the Treasury Department) and Charles Rangel (who once ran the Ways and Means Committee), BOTH turn out to be tax cheats who are in favor of higher taxes.

Number 7
Only in America...can they have terrorists kill people in the name of Allah and have the media primarily react by fretting that Muslims might be harmed by the backlash.

Number 6
Only in America...would they make people who want to legally become American citizens wait for years in their home countries and pay tens of thousands of dollars for the privilege, while they discuss letting anyone who sneaks into the country illegally just 'magically' become American citizens (probably should be number one).

Number 5
Only in America....could the people who believe in balancing the budget and sticking by the country's Constitution be thought of as EXTREMISTS.

Number 4
Only in America...could you need to present a driver's license to cash a check or buy alcohol, but not to vote.

Number 3
Only in America...could people demand the government investigate whether oil companies are gouging the public because the price of gas went up when the return on equity invested in a major U.S. Oil company(Marathon Oil) is less than half of a company making tennis shoes (Nike).

Number 2
Only in America... could you collect more tax dollars from the people than any nation in recorded history, still spend a Trillion dollars more than it has per year - for total spending of $7-Million PER MINUTE, and complain that it doesn't have nearly enough money.

And Number 1
Only in America...could the rich people- who pay 86% of all income taxes - be accused of not paying their "fair share" by people who don't pay any income taxes at all.


TOPICS: Humor
KEYWORDS: change; hope; obamacare
President Obama goes to a primary school to talk to the kids. After his talk he offers question time.

One little boy puts up his hand, and Obama asks him his name.
" Walter," responds the little boy.
"And what is your question, Walter?"
"I have six questions"
First, "Why did the USA Bomb Libya without the support of the Congress?"
Second, "Why do you keep saying you fixed the economy when it's actually gotten worse?"
Third, "Why did you say that Jeremiah Wright was your mentor, then said that you knew nothing about his preaching and beliefs
Fourth, "Why are we lending money to Brazil to drill for oil, but America is not allowed to drill for oil?"
Fifth, “Why do you continue to cover up the Benghazi scandal?"
Sixth, “Why did you spy on your own U.S. citizens?" and lastly, why did the IRS target Republicans?

Just then, the bell rings for recess. Obama informs the kiddies that they will continue after recess.

When they resume Obama says, "OK, where were we? Oh, that's right: question time..
Who has a question?"
Another little boy puts up his hand. Obama points him out and asks him his name.
"Steve," he responds.
"And what is your question, Steve?"
Actually, I have two questions.
First, "Why did the recess bell ring 40 minutes early?"
Second, "What the hell happened to Walter?"


What a Deal!....I got an email the other day from a Nigerian prince; He’s got a MILLION DOLLARS and he wants to give it to me for FREE!


And all I have to do is give him all my bank account numbers so he can transfer the money!


I was about to do it, but then I got ANOTHER email;


It’s from a KENYAN prince, and he wants to give me FREE healthcare for life!

… and all I have to do is give him all my bank account numbers so he can make it happen!

Actually, a Canadian in Ontario, BC or Quebec might be on board with about half of that list. The money spent for each of the “First Peoples” (That’s Injuns to you and me) is MUCH greater proportionally than their place in the population, and even more than the U.S. does.

The folks in Quebec, in particular would likely be on board for more tax the rich policy.
