Those are some big numbers, Sir Cystic Crypt o_o;;
Yay Canada! ^_^

You’re right CC, I was only joking. :P
Canada’s military is such an easy target…I just couldn’t resist. :wink:
Keep in mind, if the US got into a Third World War, Canada would be the first country to rally behind us.
I’d be skeptical about that. I’d bet on Britain.
Even if Canada did support us, I don’t think it would be because they actually agreed with us, it’d be because they’re within arms’ reach of the US.
Okay, while we’re on the topic of Canada’s military, does anyone know if they have nuclear weapons yet?
we build and sell nuclear reactors, and as well we likely could have the capability to develop them in a few years, but i believe that we have none, nor have we any intention to be involved in the arms race to any degree. It seems to be against our national psyche to be a “nuclear power”.
Hey, could we go back to bashing the “governor” of California? That was the best thing I’ve read on-line in a long time. I’m sure bashing Canada could be fun, but I’d rather leave bashing my heritage alone. :D
Anyway, since I got in here late, I want to say that I did see the Washington governor’s speech. Didn’t you just love how he said that the Democrats supported the President and then went on to tear him apart. I mean, come on, I know he wanted to criticize him, but did he have to further prove his hypocrisy by saying he was supporting him? I just love how he gave us his entire family history. I’ll never ever forget that he works serving Washington only a mile from where his dad used to work as a servant in a house. Touching. Sniff wipe a tear from my eye Yeah, overall I like Bush as a President, but I would like to have a little more info before I completely back his moves.
BTW, Canadians are nice. I went there a couple years ago with my family. My dad needed a nickel and some lady we’d never seen and probably will never see again gave him one. That was cool. And two of my classmates are Canadian (that makes three of us in the class), one of them can actually choose to become a Canadian citizen. (Although, I really hope he choose to take American citizenship.) :)
dIfrenT, I haven’t seen you posting for a while. Remember, us Californians need representation too! :wink:

Yes, such as how Governor Davis wants to increase the car registration fee by three times. Talk about robbing the poor… :-?

Yes, I can agree with you. I wanted a rebuttal, not the life story of the man! :o But I am terribly sorry to say, almost every single Asian person I know resorted to that story of “my hardships and my journey” for his college application… :-?
Speaking of car fees. :wink:
There lives a man up here by the name of Tim Eyman. He is probably the most hated man in Washington State, because of the legislation he proposes. :) He raises money, drafts initiatives, and the initiatives ultimately pass by a majority vote of the citizens. One such initiative was to limit car-tab fees to $15. Guess what happens then? The state officials (Department of Transportation) say they’re “not going to” obey the law that was just passed because they don’t “like” it! Then more state officials come out in support of the DOT! Can you believe this crap…? :o

Seems, strange if he is the most hated man in Washington State if he has the support of the citizens. :wink:
Let me rephrase that. Many people hate him, but the majority of citizens still vote in favor of his intiatives. Hehe, when you offer a tax break to people, they always seem to favor it…
He’s not really hated, its just that few like him, because of his lying about his finances, but they like his legislation.

Yeah, we don’t want people to think that all Californians are apathetic about our “governor.” I’ve been really, REALLY busy - midterm finals. Anyway, I hadn’t heard about the car fees. I think Davis is way beyond moronic (or imbecilic, or stupid, or just-run-over-my-head-with-a-dump-truck-because-I-have-no-brains-to-hurt-anyway :lol: ) Apparently, he’s keeping all the funds for the prison system, and cutting all the other ones that affect law-abiding citizens. Did you know he made a bet against the Florida governor Jeb Bush during the Superbowl? Betcha he won’t use his own money to pay it (unless he absolutely has to).
Man, D:S, I didn’t realize people would so blatantly ignore the basic law of the land like that. Hello! What happened to “of the people, by the people, for the people”? Scratch that state of my list of states to live in. I’d rather stay here in California.
I wish I could end this on a more positive note, but nothing positive comes to mind in this case. ttyl
The voters are not unreasnoble, they just want more spending and less taxes. :)
Can you say, hello casino?
