Well, I think Greenland faces a choice.

It can join the coalition of the willing....or cast it's lot amongst the evil doers.

There are lots of ptarmigans in Greenland. They will be glad to join America.

Yes, they do. How do you know that? By the way, ptarmigan is related to chicken, quail, and pheasant.

Wow - Greenland, maybe even Iceland, as US military allies.

That'll help me sleep better at night (sarcasm).

Following an agreement on the modernization of the base last month however, Greenlanders have begun seeing the superpower across the Atlantic as a potential ally in their quest for self-determination.

Hmmmm .. I always thought we were on the same side of the Atlantic as Greenland? This statement either confuses me or shows that this writer needs a geography lesson.

Breaking news...Latest election news from the Greenland Gazette.

The Greenland Independence Movement (GIM) is currently locked in take-no-prisoners snowball fight to the death with the Movement for Greenland Independence (MFGI) and the Independent Greenland Front (IGF). A fringe group, the Greenland Greens for Polar Bears (GGFPB) has also joined in the fray. Unfortunately reports from the area are not available as Ace Reporter, Inni-Inni Inuit is unable to be found. A tactical response search and rescue team of slay dogs is ready to go into the battle-zone soon and the local constabulary has been called to try and bring order to the situation.

Voting results will no doubt be forthcoming shortly.

Duhhhh . . . ain't I the dummy. I didn't know Greenland wasn't independent. But if you're gonna be a part of a European country . . . Denmark is better than most. If my memory serves me right, Denmark is in Iraq with us. They've gotta have a few gonads anyway.

Denmark has been a strong ally, with troops and political support. Small countries next to big countries, like to have a big friend.

I'm thinkin' "slay dogs" wouldn't be a lot of help on a search and rescue team... : )
