"I've been there and done that," she said. "I don't want to stay and fight anymore. I can have that bittersweet love for my country from somewhere else."

Buh-bye, Mollie. Don't let the door hit you in the buttocks on the way out.

Buh-bye, Mollie.

Hopefully, she'll be taking her whiny, liberal parents with her.

the 2001 figures were 5,894 Americans moving north, 30,203 Canadians moving south.

Sounds like a lot more Canadians with the "been there-done that" attitude.

Actually, my brother in law moved to Canada and gave up his U.S. citizenship over 20 years ago. I love him dearly, but I have to laugh at his socialist mindset. He's a professor of ethics who right now is working on some sort of health care pronouncement and was trying to explain to us that people who are in the lower socioeconomic levels automatically have poorer health due to the stress of their situations, and that once people whose lives are better understand how unfair this is and how lucky they are to be healthier, that they really shouldn't mind paying extra to help these people become better off. OOOOOKayeeeeeee..... I'm also amused by his declarations of what's wrong with the U.S., as he usually starts out with "well, I read in your newspaper that XXXX is a problem." As "educated" as he is, there's no way we can explain to him that that's precisely what the paper wants a person to think - them that doesn't know any better anyway.
