    LOL....

    So let me get this straight.... If YOU say something controversial, I am not allowed to retort becuse you see that as "picking a fight"?

    I reckon I should not be surprised. Oh well.

    I didn't see Puck as trying to start a fight here personally, and I think he has a point. What these idiots on TV said was stupid and ignorant, they deserve to have to apologize publicly and face the derision they are now receiving, but getting worked up into a vein-popping fury over it doesn't do anything but raise your own blood pressure. People say stupid and stereotypical things about other countries constantly, it is not limited to the U.S. I have heard many insults and stereotypes slung around about Americans as well. For this guy, the timing of his idiocy couldn't have been worse. But the way I see it, you blow him off as a jerk and not representative of the nation as a whole and go on with life.

    My 2 cents.

    This got lost in the 'translation'.

    No where was the performance or bravery of the Canadian AFs questioned.

    The 'joke' was what would the men and women do when they had time to come home and regroup.

    Yoga, painting and walking on the beach in capris is not the preferred way for soldiers to 'regroup'- and any one in the armed forces of any country would tell you that they would go home, hang with family, decompress and relax.

    A soldier with a sense of humor would be a little more honest. He's tell you he was going home to rock the headboard, have some drinks and hug the shait outta family members.

    No need to get all scrunched up in the undie area.

    And what is the deal with the "Mounted" Police.

    They don't look sex crazed to me!

    So some people think it is okay...and some people think it is funny... to belittle and disrepect the military. And a country. That is a loyal ally.

    Got it!

    In the right context, absolutely. In case of the Fox commentators it was badly timed satire.

    One of the funniest quotes Ive ever seen made by a Canadian was, "We have a navy?"

    Think of how many countries make the USA the butt of their jokes, satire, and outright insults, maybe Americans just have thicker skin.

    You never see this type of outrage when the MSM blatantly shows their liberal bias.
    I have a HUGE SIG!!!!

    Why talk about the subject when you and your buddy Liz would rather be dismisive and insulting about others points of view? Ya'll can be pretty petty when you are being condescending.

    You also really need to read more.

    Ill recommend 2 books to you, writen by long time liberal, democrat and 20+ year reporter/producer at CBS, Bernard Goldberg. Bias: A CBS Insider Exposes How the Media Distort the News and A Slobbering Love Affair: The True (And Pathetic) Story of the Torrid Romance Between Barack Obama and the Mainstream Media. Im sure if you cant find them at your local library or local liberal bookstore you can find them on Amazon by following the links. Goldberg has writen other books on the subject of liberal bias in the media but I havent read them yet.


    Its to bad other countries cant take it as well as they can give it.

    Did the Red Eye "pundits" remind anybody else of "That 70s Show"s basement scenes? Link.

    Why would anybody take Gutfeld or that rest of the panel of "pundits" seriously?
