Stay home, you pathetic whining maggots

Calgary Sun

By Ian Robinson -- Calgary Sun

In the wake of the U.S. presidential election -- in which I cheerfully took a Sun assistant city editor, who figured Senator John Kerry couldn't lose, for $10 (a quick pause to gloat here) Americans disenchanted with President George W. Bush's re-election romp back into the White House, continue to deluge the Canadian immigration website.

How anybody can be unhappy with the president's re-election is beyond me.

Bush has my admiration in no small part because he manages to simultaneously annoy France and Germany, not to mention those renowned deep, geopolitical thinkers, the Dixie Chicks, Bruce Springsteen, P-Diddy or whatever he's calling himself now, Gwynneth Paltrow and Ben Affleck.

(Interesting note about France: America invades Iraq without UN approval and America is portrayed as a barbarian striding across the world stage. Recently, France essentially invaded the Ivory Coast to protect its interests there ... without asking the UN squat. Just pointing out the hypocrisy.)

Plus, let's face it: France deserves to be annoyed by as many people as possible, as often as possible, if only for encouraging Jerry Lewis by telling him that he was a genius.

Not to mention for exporting snotty wine culture across the Atlantic so that otherwise reasonable North Americans have turned into cork-sniffing oenephiles -- although the word sounds like an exotic perversion, it just means wine-nerd -- who can actually say with a straight face: "This is a full-bodied Cabernet, rich with a full body tasting of plum, blackberry and leather cooked on an oak plank."

Anyway, the day after the U.S. election, 115,628 Americans checked out the site and those numbers haven't fallen off very much.

Before the election, some U.S. celebrities and numerous other Democrats vowed that they'd move to Canada if Bush were re-elected.

I hope I'm not alone in gently suggesting to those considering coming to Canada: Stay home, you pathetic whining maggots.

Particularly celebrities. Canada has suffered enough without having to put up with any of the Baldwin brothers or -- heaven forfend! -- Barbra Streisand.

And frankly, I don't know if we can afford to feed Michael Moore.

Bad enough that Canada became a haven for the gutless wonders of the 1960s who fled the Vietnam draft. I sometimes think that the draft dodgers welcomed by the Trudeau government were a political virus that invaded our body politic, and we still suffer the lingering effects of that illness.

Our nation's preposterous pacifism, belief in nonsense such as "soft power" and fidelity to a morally bankrupt United Nations overrun with tin-pot dictators and other left-wing idiocies, may well be traceable back to the influx of thousands of the testosterone-challenged whose allegiance to country was superceded by their allegiance to smoking dope while trying to figure out the inner meaning of Beatles songs.

We have immigrants coming to this country who have been hunted from the air by murderous Islamofascists in Sudan.

Some new Canadians survived the atrocities in Rwanda or old Europe's final convulsions of genocide in the former Yugoslavia.

We have physicians from some parts of the world who are willing to throw away their prestige and power in their homelands for the privilege of driving a cab in Moose Jaw.

As a nation, we ought to welcome our share of people fleeing genuine oppression, and those willing to gamble everything to secure a safe and decent future for their families.

But welcome a bunch of spoiled brats willing to abandon their very nation because they don't like the man elected to be their leader for the next four years?

Geez, in my entire lifetime, there was maybe one prime minister I'd trust to run a street-corner hot dog stand -- the rest of them weren't fit for much more than compost -- but it never occurred to me to emigrate.

If we close our borders to anybody, it should be these fools. They'll be easy to screen out.

They'll be the ones who are whining.

ah. a wonderfully deep thinker.
 
Phew. I was starting to think that all Canadians were whiny leftest bitches. I know that there are some more moderate people up there, but it's not often we hear from them!
ah. a wonderfully deep thinker.
Actually that was the most prudent thing he said there. If I could vote in the US I'd vote against anything these twits endorse, just as a matter of course 🙂

It's alberta. we herded all the conservatives over there.
I suppose you know that though.

I bet they would endorse your right to life, so feel free to kill yourself. 😉

He was quoting the article title, it wasn't his words.

pliablemoose was going in for the troll as is indicated by the lack of any substance in the opinion and the wink at the end making it clear what her intentions were.

Thank you, resident troll expert witness. Is pliablemoose a female?
 
Jesus, you're quoting an editorial in the Calgary Sun? The cheapest, cheeziest, most retarded tabloid there is? What's next, World Weekly News?

I guess plenty of people never got past gr. 8 reading & comprehension.

Well, that should be obvious by now....
Why do you say that?

Alchemize, you seem more interested in talking ABOUT posters than about actual topics I've noticed. Have you ever thought about OT?

(Yes I'm going off-topic here but only to help direct alchemize to a more appropriate forum for most of his posts).

Wow! What a fvcking idiot! He is comparing the Ivory Coast to Iraq? My god what is the world coming too...

Really? You seem to be more interested in if someone is trolling or not rather than the topic. Yet, you call pliablemoose a "she". So I'm really trying to determine who the troll here is?

I laughed when you called the article writer 'moderate'. He is pretty extreme by our standards.

Alberta (the province in which Calgary is located) is our equivalent of Texas. Its industries are cattle and oil, it is known for its rightist politics, and it is filthy rich.

Calgary's main attraction is the Calgary Stampede, which happens in early August every year.

Please do not think he represents Canada's elite.

Funny you should use that term, it's been thrown about a bit in the U.S. lately.

Now I know how Adul feels...

Infohawk is so darn smart & perceptive, he's figured out I'm a woman.

I should have known better than try to fool a teenager....

Too bad there wasn't a troll forum, huh? Or is that P&N?
 
Maybe we should send all our illegal aliens to Canada. I am sure this guy and his friends would love to have their borders over run. Sorry but I would prefer that our troops patrol our own borders and not someone elses.

So, Infotroll, care to elaborate on where you think that PM is a female, or were you yet once again trolling?
