"So let me say directly to the Canadian people and to all of you here today who welcomed Americans, thank you for your kindness to America in an hour of need," said Mr. Bush.

He said Americans and Canadians are one family, a family that sometimes disagrees but ultimately stands together.

"The affection that appeared in an instant will always be there and it runs deep," said President Bush. "Beyond the words of politicians and the natural disagreements that nations will have, our two peoples are one family and always will be.

No, you're not.

Only in the eyes of Carolyn Perished, and all those young, socialist, communist, pro-abortion, feminazi, animal rights, tree hugging, unbathed peaceniks.

So you have all the right enemies.

Which is about 48% of Canada, according to the latest poll. I'm proudly in the 28% pro-American category.

Another related topic - I don't get the resistance to "militarizing space" Do the beatniks not understand this is like a patriot missile in space to target nuclear missiles? Will we be sorry one day? We already have militarized space – I mean what do they think military satellites are for? For acquiring targets.

The irony is that it is infact a ground missile system. There wouldn't be any weapons in space whatsoever. This whole "starwars" label is simply a liberal spin to scare the uncertains.

The way I looked at it, bastards are still part of the family, but she was just a cranky hag who liked to say the word out loud.

Well, there you go. I didn’t know that. Another liberal lie I just took for granted to be fact. I should know better.

They count on that. The NMD system would be a fixed, land-based, non-nuclear missile defense system with a space-based detection system used to track the launch of enemy ballistic missiles. Here's a link to the Missile Defense Agency. CNN has a Flash Presentation on how it would work.

He stressed the importance of strengthening multinational institutions...

A globalist, through and through. The double-cross of conservatives and he hasn't even been sworn in yet.

Your statement may be true. But GWB was/is a much better choice than a man who thought he could be elected by lying about his service to this country!

You’d think possibly that Japan would be interested in such a system?

Russia tested their system today. The goal of the Bush administration is to unite the entire continent of North America and protect our joint borders. It's a good plan that needs to get off the ground soon (no pun intended).

LOL. The anti-American faction up there is about the same as down here.
