I promise I'll always accept Canadian cash. I'll want 50% more, but I'll accept it.
Also, this wasn't a government thing. It was a random asshole. Got those in Canada, too. I know. My aunt is married to one.
Take me, sir. Take me hard.

When the White House press secretary makes on the record statements encouraging people to attempt assasinations, the ebay kitsch doesn't even register with me.

True, and when the U.S. ambassador to Canada makes vague threats, I guess I should be surprised when some random jerk takes the same tone.
Sigh.
So, Buffy is a pretty cool show, eh?

Always Anti-fascist!
He DID?! OMG. (Of course, I can only handle war news for about an hour at a time,but...I didn't know that. Doesn't seem very responsible, to say the least.

Yeah, it was a few months back. His comments included something about the price of a one-way ticket and a bullet.
(He's "clarified" by saying he was only making a rhetorical point - that a bullet doesn't cost near as much as a "one-way ticket", i.e., exile.
Ari Fleischer told CNN he was making a "rhetorical point" on the cost of a possible war and his comments were not meant to send signals to the Iraqi people.
However, Fleischer said, "no one would shed a tear" if the Iraqi people took the matter of Saddam into their own hands.

ugh. More reason than ever to hate him.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Fliecher's comments don't bother me nearly as much as someone selling "terrorist hunting licences" over the internet. I can only speak for the area I live in now, but people are wound up. Some of them are directing their anger at anyone. I wish whoever it was wouldn't encourage them.

Good point, Heather. Ari Fleischer is scary, but not in the same kind of immediate way.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
Can you imagine the hissy fit if someone turned around and said they wouldn't sell to Americans?

Hello! I must be going.
Huh? People are smashing McDonald's up, pouring Coke down drains, withdrawing American brands from Parisian restuarants--and it's as common, and noticeable, as burning our flag. It's soooo adolescent--"Look! We're burning your flag in our demo! The symbol of your contry! Aren't we outrageous?! Aren't you upset?!!"
Yawn. Yes, dudes, outraged. Yay you. See you at the movies.
