He said the publicity surrounding the incident has been humiliating. "It's not easy knowing the entire country thinks you're a dim-wit."

Yeah, that's gonna look reeeaaaal good on a resume.

[A. Goodwin]

I missed that (Conservative in NYC pointed it out to me upthread). In that case, I'm much more willing to accept the apologies at face value.

What post?
This: "Sniveling Canadians. What a pitiful display."

More garbage from a relative newbie, moronic dickhead who - based upon his nothing-of-any-substance posting history - appears to rather strangely get his kicks from pointlessly vilifying his nation's friends & allies via his trademark oh-so cutesy little boxes.

Why the Admin Mods haven't punched his plainly abusive & trollish ticket by now is beyond me.

That would be Ozzy Osborne

From wikipedia

"He was arrested after urinating near the base of the Cenotaph, a monument located in front of The Alamo, while wearing one of his wife's dresses, for which he was banned from San Antonio, Texas for ten years. (The dress was worn due to Sharon's attempt to prevent Ozzy from going out drinking, by removing all his clothes from the hotel where they were staying.)

International hostilities only extendso far as the governement and people in charge.

If France was run by someone like Pres. Reagan, french bashing would go (somewhat) out of style.

"He pissed on a piece of stone that he didn't understand the symbolism of. Let's hang him. How idiotic of you...you're being the kind of whiner we all make fun of here."

How could anyone with more then a 4th grade education "not understand the symbolism" of a memorial of ANY kind? Where did I mention punishment at all, much less hanging him as you seemed to have manufactured my saying out of thin air. As for the name calling, well, that smacks of a hysterical defense of an act I am now lead to believe you condone. Certainly at the very least you are an apologist for this mindless POS.

You must be a liberal.

You missed the point, it won't be dwealt on but will be remembered. Remember this streaker from years ago?:

The streaker.org

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Dr. Pilon said earlier this week he doesn't think the young men should be fined, saying he holds government officials responsible for not protecting the memorial.

Socialists...

WOW...you got me...I'm a liberal. Get over yourself.

Bob Butt, director of communications for the Royal Canadian Legion, said veterans welcomed the apology. "We believe that the apology was contrite and that the young man knows what he did wrong after all the publicity that they gained," he said. "He's come and apologized, and he volunteered of his own free will to take on work with a veterans' organization."

And that, said Mr. Butt, is the silver lining -- the chance for the youth to learn more about the role veterans played in Canada's history. "From the two young men, I don't believe it was an act of blatant disregard; it was probably an act that demanded a lot of education," he said.

Good enough for The Legion...Good enough for me

I thought this was about Ozzy - he pissed on the Alamo in the 80's.

I respect the Canadian military men and women who fight along side our troops in the war on terror. When their number exceeds the number of Canadians who boo the US Natl. Anthem I'll respect Canada.

How do you know they don't?

"WTH is that post supposed to mean?"

Je fais des excuses.. Canadiens de sniveling, ce qui un affichage pitoyable.

[kanawa]

This is how he shows his respect for the Canadian soldiers
who fight and give their lives for Canada,
by disrespecting at every opportunity their country.
Reminds me of the no-accounts who boo another country's anthem
or the idiots that piss on monuments.

"I respect the Canadian military men and women who fight along side our troops in the war on terror ... "

Given that your posting history with it's numerous vilifications of Canada & ALL Canadians indicates the exact opposite, the statement above most certainly exposes you to be both a liar & a hypocrite.

BTW, anyone else catching more than a slight whiff of 'eau de troll' when it comes to this mouthy newbie?
