The Up-Turned Nose of Canada !

The up-turned nose of Canada !

Well, our "persnickety" neighbors to the north are at it again. They are now insisting that in the event an enemy missile, aimed at the US, makes it’s way across Canada; the US has to call Canada and ask for permission to shoot it down.

I know. It is funny. It is hilarious! They have officially refused the cover of our Missile Defense System, which, by the way, President Bush is going ahead and deploying. Canada has refused our offer to protect them with the shield. How smart is that??

What is wrong with those people? They have lived for so long under the protection of the US Military they are takeing us for granted. They remind one of a small child who has been given everything his heart desires but still makes demands upon his parents. They had better wake up to the real world and get a grip.

I have come to believe the Canadians really do believe they are better than we are. They have bought into their own P.R.! In reality, they are a small, weak, country completely vulnerable to any attack, or invasion, from an enemy. They have no military to speak of. Why should they? They have the US. We are their unpaid bodyguards. They can live their lives, above the fray, and feed their egos with their liberal pabulum their whole lives and feel superior. But wait ‘til crunch time.

Canada has yet to understand they remain an independent country as long as they pose no threat to the US. The minute that happens, “Welcome to Statehood!”

Look, there are nuts out there in the real world, the one the Canadians disdain, who have nuclear missiles. A lot of them are trying like mad to get their hands on them or build them… and when they do, they WILL use them. It behooves us to be ready. It behooves the Canadians to either start spending their money to create a REAL military, and defend themselves, because if we get busy, it could well turn out to be every man (country) for himself/itself. As it stands now, Canada would be helpless before a determined enemy. Heck, the SC National Guard could take Canada in a couple of weeks. But hey, they don’t want to lose the Canadian revenue at Myrtle Beach!

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has postponed a meeting with Canadian officials. Methinks that alone is a signal for Canada to get with the program. I mean, after all, there are only so many chances.

Your Obedient Servant,
