"Good fences don’t separate, they draw together. Establishing boundaries is the cornerstone of a strong and healthy relationship, whether for countries or for human beings."

I wish people who quote Robert Frost would actually read the d**n poem!

The poem says the exact opposite of what this writer claims. The narrator's neighbor is the one who claims "good fences make good neighbors" - Frost in the voice of the narrator disagrees: "something there is that doesn't love a wall" and thinks his neighbor is stupid: "He will not go behind his father's saying,/ And he likes having thought of it so well/ He says again, "Good fences make good neighbors."

Read it yourself:

Mending Wall

Frost obviously was a typical liberal who discounted traditional wisdom and made fun of it (and thought his country neighbors were stupid).

“A new Canadian law makes a passport necessary to cross the border from America to Canada.”

Bzzzt. Completely wrong. The law requiring a passport is an American one - Canadians must have a passport to enter the U.S. as do Americans who want to return.

“They have never been at war, never been at odds and never shared conflict.”

Bzzt. Wrong again. You have heard of the War of 1812...have you not?
