    Why are Canadians so interested in what happens here?

    Our elections have effects around the world. People pay attention, and it affects people outside of our borders.



    I understand that...just wonder how many US citizens sit around the TV for foreign elections? :lol:

    My hotel room here in Chicago looks down on Michigan Avenue and over to Soldiers Field, just past that is Obama HQ.

    I can see all the blue lights on Lake Shore Drive, I wonder if they've shut it down.

    People are cheering and yelling in the street, and horns are beeping.

    Very cool to be here for this.

    I've seen quite a bit of foreign election coverage. The recent elections in Russia were a big story, as well as all elections in the Middle East.

    Yep, the US is no place for successful businessman. You work hard and build something, the government will take it away.

    And for the successful businessmen you have in mind, it seems the U.S isn't the place for workers either, seeing as Romney outsourced most of his businesses overseas in order to fatten his own bank account.

    You still singing that tune?

    Maybe if any other country spent 2.16 trillion every year on a military machine they use to intimidate and terrorize the rest of the World, then I'm pretty sure people would pay attention to that countries election results.

    It's a beautiful tune. Still waiting for all those countries we "terrorize" to return those foreign aid checks they receive. :lol:

    Why are Canadians so interested in what happens here?

    A little quiz:

    Question: When traveling in Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Syria and or Somalia, what passport would you rather have in your possession?

    A. France
    B. Canada
    C. USA

    Question: Which country lost the most service members on June 6, 1944:

    A. USA
    B. France
    C. Germany
    D. Canada

    Question: Which country continuously thrusts its chest out and requires a boogieman to feel confident about itself and its place in the world?

    A. Canada
    B. China
    C. USA

    When you're the "rest of the world", maybe you get sick and tired of the USA throwing its "dispoportionate weight" around the world and being belligerent. Hence, why Canadians care about "what happens here." Think about the world around you, its much bigger than your "everyday."

    No disrespect. Walk with me toward a better future, a bright future, a future filled with promise and potential, an American future!

    Peace.

    Changing the subject now?

    Like you know anything about what foreign aid goes to what country? And why and how did any country arrive at a position where foreign aid was required in the first place? You know anything about that? Nope? Third World debt didn't just materialize out of a vacuum overnight.
    Maybe you can go do some homework then come back and answer any of the above.

    I'm not changing the subject. You brought up how we terrorize other nations.

    How about if the US just went into a vacuum. Put up walls. Bought only goods and resources we only needed. Pulled all military forces out of EVERY single country in the World...and anything we might not be able to buy because some country wanted to act smart and try and cut us off...we just took by brute military force. Would the World be a better place then. Let people starve in Africa. Let people kill themselves in Somalia. Middle East...fuck it...give us your oil and who gives a shit what tyrants run around. Tsunamis in Japan....fuck em. Would that world be better?

    Booked a trip to Iraq, have you? To check on the "flourishing democracy?" See the Gardens of Babylon? Lounge along the banks of the Tigris while sipping tea and smoking a hooka?

    Again, no disrespect but when you, with an American passport, can walk down the streets of Baghdad, as a tourist, unmolested and safe, then I shall believe that GWB's war may have been "worth" it, whatever "it" was.

    Now do you understand why Canadians might care about what happens "here?"
