Re: Ed Brophy Comments & Kudos

Ed,

Its cold and lonely up here in "Fibberal" land. Gearing up for another election (sigh),
recent polls show that Canada will re-elect Liberal windbag, Paul Martin (aka "Mr. Dithers").

I made a comment to a friend tonight at dinner:

"Canada is a wish-washy country, lacks direction, like a sailboat adrift on a windless bay."

She howled with laughter:

"I don't think I've EVER heard a Canadian talk that way about this country".

I'm pro Israel, pro America, pro Bush (most of the time).

Canada has been bashing America for years. If 9/11 had taken down our CN Tower,
decimated our Skydome (now Rogers Centre) instead of the Twin Towers, the first call would have been to the President of the United States:

Jean Chretian to George Bush:

"Help the wimps!"

We can't protect ourselves against a terrorist attack. Our leaders lack the gumption to put their "cojones" on the line to make good decisions in these perilous times. They suck votes by appealing to "new Canadians" (aka everyone escaping from countries ruled by tin-pot "president for life" despots.) Canadas leaders ignored the plight of Bill Sampson, kidnapped, held hostage and tortured for 36months in Saudi Arabia, chewed their lip over the beating, rape and murder of Canadian photographer Zahra Kazemi in Iran.

Ed, thanks for the kudos. I'm not totally alone up here though, I've got David Frum, George Jonas, et al, on my side. Or perhaps I'm on theirs.

I thank God for "the voice" of Daniel Pipes. He has columns in The National Post from time to time, here is where I can enjoy him most, and meet with like-minds such as yourself.

Merry Christmas Ed.

Best to you and yours,

Heather Clark
Toronto, Canada
