Obama Compared the Palestinians to Canada? Networks Ignore The Gaffe, Lavish Time on Obama

Radio hosts like Mark Levin and Web sites like Canada Free Press are mocking President Obama’s statement in a press conference yesterday with Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas, where he compared the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to U.S.-Canada relations.

But ABC, CBS, and NBC failed to notice. They acted like a press release service for Obama on their newscasts Thursday night and Friday morning, offering Obama 18 soundbites adding up to 215 seconds, often ending in applause.

Gee, I'm so glad Pravda USA is finally turning against obama because of the contempt he has for them.

I can’t remember that last time a Canadian rocket landed in my neighborhood.

President Barry be 100% correct and you be a raciss!

These Canadians be smiley and all, but if wasn't for President Barry using the friendly approach, they be coming South, not tipping waiters and be ruining the economy.

You keep talking, Barry. Go Homie!

“I can’t remember that last time a Canadian rocket landed in my neighborhood.”

You’ve forgotten? See the great documentary on this conflict, “Canadian Bacon”(1995).

That was our fault as I recall. (naturally)

IIRC, there actually was an armed conflict of sorts between the US and Canadian militaries. Look up the “Pig War”. A little spat between the Americans and Canadians over some escaped pigs up on the Washington/BC border, although I can’t remember if it was Canadians or British troops.

I thought I would repeat what I had posted previously on the comparisons between two neighbouring states. I know the Palestinians were given Gaza and they smashed up viable greenhouse resources left by the Israelis. The Israelis left the facilities intact for usage.

It may be neither here nor there, but I will mention it anyway. A Canadian citizen was vacationing in Costa Rica. He was a man of 61 years of age. He would have been better advised to freeze with the rest of us peasants. He was bitten by a Fer-De-Lance Bothrops Asper (phew! it is a viper).

The medical personel in Vancouver said he could die as they had not antidote. They got it post haste from:

Woodland Park, Zoo. Seattle, USA. (He will live).

Thanks USA!
