it´s the nature of man, to think their shite doesn´t stink.


All the same, I'd rather be incorrectly associated with Adolf Hitler than George W. Bush.


WOW! You would rather be incorrectly associated with a man who gassed thousands of jews than George??

I'm not a George fan at all, but that's hard to imagine...

Since an incorrect association is meaningless, I'd side with an intelligent monster over a stupid one, any day.

Also, it was millions of Jews, according to History. But ask yourself how many people are dying every day at the hands of the Bush administration (so the free people of America can continue to drive SUVs).

The difference is, the Germans and Austrians (and Japanese, etc.) know better than that now. Apparently, the Bush regime needs to learn a similar lesson.

"But ask yourself how many people are dying every day at the hands of the Bush administration (so the free people of America can continue to drive SUVs)."

Ok, I've asked myself. Now I'd like your answer Cogitech. How many people do you think are dying "every day", and where are these deaths occurring?

Cogitech should wait 'til everyone's dead during these times before he re-writes history....

Evidentally he forgot (like millions of Americans) why we (along with several other countries) went to Iraq. Not oil....media has you doesn't it.

BTW....great joke!!!

Funny article...seems the US isn't the only energy pig...


"Canada is rich, big and cold, and we share two borders with the United States. Those factors explain why we are the world’s energy pigs, but they do not justify it."...

I dunno. Ask a European.

If you ask me, we are just about as American as are Mexicans.

I would say Mexicans are more American since they can't wait to get in the country.

When is the last time you saw Canadians taking a chance at death to get into the US?

True. Very true. Many more Americans in the line-up here, according to a friend who used to work at the US Consulate in Toronto. Many of them people who don't like guns, I suppose, and others who like weed and alternative lifestyles. We love 'em all.

Do Mexicans still do that?

Is it because his Canon is bigger than your canon? That's alright, I'm sure your small Canon works great in a tight spot..... and you can use your hand.

I am absolutely appalled at the lack of tolerance for peoples honest opinion.
A man "Nathan Hobbs: makes a comment and you guys pounce and devour his statement.
You condemn his honest opinion and in doing so, sit in judgment of him.
Are any of you better than him? No seriously, by what standard are you guys making this judgement upon him?
or maybe his statement has examined some hearts that don't not want to be checked?
I too am a Canon user and found the joke unappropriate, so cast your votes against me as well, if it makes you all "feel" better and part of the "norm"

I'm again sorry if I offended you Peter. I only thought it would brighted somone's day. If you read what I said to Nathan Hobbs, I believe I mentioned how I did not mean to offend anyone there too. I only wanted to make a few people laugh. And a few did. I am casting votes against noboby. No one is better than anyone else. I just found an old joke and wanted to share.

Inappropriate? Maybe...Maybe not... But if you were to look at the joke closely, there is nothing inappropriate IN the text of the joke. Its all in the way your mind interprets what it reads.

Thanks for the reply Conrad,
I wasn't offended, as I was mostly shocked at the behavior of the forum members towards one another.
Thanks again mate for your quick response.
kind regards
