George Bush visits Canada



Not! Ha-ha!



It's true, the White House had originally scheduled a trip to Canada for Cinco de Mayo, and then cancelled. "Too preoccupied with Iraq," reported the White House. Okay, then. Have fun with your ponderings! I understand you'll be spending some of the day in Little Rock, Arkansas. Because George Bush really loves celebrating civil liberties.



In the meantime, Americans all over the place wish they were more like Canada, or at least, more like themselves. The story I linked about Canada having "too many liberties" has been linked widely. This Modern World. LibertyThink. chunshek.com. And dozens more.



Janeane Garofalo was on the CBC this morning, discussing how much she likes and admires Canada. But she had no idea if expressing an unpopular opinion would get her any easier ride than it has in the United States. Geez, I dunno, Janeane... let's ask Kiefer Sutherland, or Don Cherry... it doesn't seem to do anyone on either wing any serious damage.
