haha chris, i think the appropriate question is not whether the average U.S. citizens knows much about canada. the question is "does the united states have an effect on ________?"
in the case where __________ is filled by any nation on earth, then the answer is unequivocally "yes." |

Yeah and what happens in the US can change the face of the world too, hate it or love it but the USA are at the moment the leading nation in the world. Also i have a lot of interests into politic debates in general. |

so you're reading this blog, right? and then in this blog there's like this theme that all-encompassing generalizations are sort of, uh, retarded.
and then this guy shows up in this blog, right? and will you believe what he says? well let me tell you what he says... |

why do you try so hard to make me come off as just some ignorant flag waving, self absorbed asshole?
if i posted on the next election in canada and kept calling you names and how much i hate you and your country i think you would be curious as to why |

um, most people i know in new england can definitely name every province, even labrador.
they can definitely tell you a lot about bloc quebecois and gilles duceppe.
however, i doubt many canadians are out there naming all 50 states.
actually, fun anti-canada story. i went to UNH obviously, and our hockey team is good because we import them all from Ontario. One day in a foreign relations class there were questions about Canadian parliament system, and some "freebies" about the capitals of certain provinces. The three canuck dudes actually had to cheat off me to get the capital of a few provinces, I thought that was pretty mindblowing. |

like what the fuck so i dont come in and metaphorically suck your dicks over the internet and 100% agree with everything so bash and flame me? other opinions must be alienated and those with them must be hated? I LIKE OBAMA! i never said he was racist! i even linked the statements his minister and wife made and it doesnt matter? i put up instead of shutting up, put the proof in the thread and yet its treated like im some 70 IQ middle american who hasnt heard of mexico and thinks canada is the 51st state |

People all over the world are paying attention to this election cause it affects them. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. I'm glad that Canadians and Europeans and more are giving input and talking about this with me here in the blog and definitely want em to keep posting.
On that note I think Chris was just joking. It reminds me of when I repeat George Carlin lines to my GF and she looks at me like I'm an idiot - trying to retell a comedians joke often fails and that's what just happened for Chris, hehe. I do agree with Sheitan that who cares about his name, especially when you translate it and see what a very nice name it is. Ignorance has just lead people to look down on it or be scared of it. I think the fact that he DIDN'T change his name shows great character and bravery.
But I don't think the KKK hates palin cause she's from the north - she's not. The north is like NYC, not Alaska. I have no idea if they like her either and am not saying that, just don't think she falls into the category of "north" that southern racists hate.
Last I gotta say I agree with devon that not all McCain supporters are racists (just look at those supporters in the video who kicked out the crazy guy) but that there are still a decent # of them and they're making the GOP look very bad.

No one is after you for having a different viewpoint. It's just that you've made some very crazy or baseless statements and then defended em. It's like if I came in and said "22 is a much better hand than AA, EVERYBODY knows that" - people wouldn't bother to be nice to me, they'd either think I was trolling or that I was a complete moron.
Then I think your attempt at a joke fell flat. Hell in person it's hard to retell a comedians joke, but online without even having tone of voice it makes it really easy for shit to go wrong. It's a semi-funny joke but I think Sheitans right that it's stupid for Obama to change his name. He may have been a bit harsher on you than necessary, but you gotta realize that he probably didn't catch the tone of your joke and he also is viewing you as the guy who thinks that "22 owns AA" so he's already lost respect for ya.
Just think a bit more before posting (which would reduce the amount of triple posting you do) and be sure not to make baseless claims and no one will be on your case. |

Agreed. I don't think anyone has been bashing america in this blog or "bashing" america "just to bad mouth" america. |
