Fox News mocks Canadian Military

[E30 Cabrio]

Canada sucks.

That being said, this show is "Red Eye", AKA Fox's version of the Daily Show/Weekend Update/That Bill Maher HBO show. It runs at 2am on a Saturday. It's a comedy show.

Fucking Canadians.

Yep, but try telling that to the MSLSD crowd, or the people who watch "The Daily Show" and consider it to be a news program.

I laugh at the "Fox News is right-wing" crowd who ignore the fact that the MSM gave 78% of their campaign donations to the DNC in the last election cycle, and 70% since 1990:

Remove talk radio from the equation, and it's closer to 85% of MSM donations go to the DNC, yet they bitch about FNC?

What about ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, NY Times, LA Times, SF Chronicle, etc... and the inherent bias of the media favoring the Dems, as evidenced by following the money and not cherry-picking or using anectdotal evidence as the clip above does?

You can't cry media bias to people who live in another country.

oh yeah... well my dad can beat up your dad

Yea well my dad has a gun and he'll shoot your dad. lmao


In all seriousness, Canada is a great country and you all can admit it, don't worry we won't think you're anti-american. And how many of you have actually been to Canada? And not just Toronto

Anybody remember that the reason why Canadians are in Afghanistan is because Bush needed HELP in Afghanistan so that he could move more soldiers to Irak? Anybody remember that several Canadian soldiers were killed by US airplanes under "friendly" fire?

So, I think that mocking the Canadian army in general, and in Afghanistan in particular, is perhaps of very bad taste. Especially that the body count is about 120 by now and that Canada is in Afghanistan to clean-up the US's mess...

Irak=/= satire. It makes you look like a retard. Also, we tried to form a "coalition" so it wouldn't be quite so unilateral. (for better or worse.) And don't you think that when we left, the threat was much less than it is now? We adapted to the situation at the time, and moved our troops where we thought there was a greater threat (again, not defending Bush or the intelligence failures that brought us to that situation). That's the nature of warfare.. adapt and go where the threat is greatest. To completely wipe out the threat, we would have had to occupy it, and then you'd all be screaming about the U.S. occupation.

Anybody remember that several Canadian soldiers were killed by US airplanes under "friendly" fire?

agreed. So were many American soldiers. As tragic as it is, and for all the safeguards taken to prevent it, it happens. Terrible choice of retort.

edit: I just re-read your sentence. I hope to hell you didn't mean to imply that there was any purposeful oversight or intent on behalf of the Americans. I'm going to assume there's not, but wanted to say something to be sure.

So, I think that mocking the Canadian army in general, and in Afghanistan in particular, is perhaps of very bad taste.

again, completely agree.

Especially that the body count is about 120 by now and that Canada is in Afghanistan to clean-up the US's mess...

Everyone there volunteered. That doesn't diminish the tragedy, but they were there because they decided to be there. And you were there to help the United States, not clean up after us. If you had gone in to clean up after us, it would have been on your own.

This armchair quarterbacking of America, by people who aren't even American, is getting old. you have your problems, we have ours. Ours, because we are such a prominent country, get thrust into the spotlight.

Canada is not there to clean up our mess. They are cradling our jock, to stay good with us.

Theres this big bad ass bully (United States) in school, who fucks everyone up. A lot of the kids (the rest of the world) dont like him, but they dont say shit. Why not? Because he will make them eat dog shit. Behind that bad ass (The united states again) is that little punk (Canada) who is just there because he knows the bad ass (The United states, if you didnt get that) is someone he needs to have on his side for survival. If the dweeb (Canada) didnt have said bad ass (United States) on his side, hed be raped (invaded).

Right? Right.

(Ive been to Windsor, and it sucked. Ive been to Oregon, and that shit was even too north for me).

Let China invade Canada and see how it works out for the US. The relationship is mutual.

[jflip2002]

We wouldnt let China invade America Jr., dont worry. We have dibs on that country, we are running out of water and space for landfills.

[Raxe]

Hopefully it works out better than Iraq.

Why would the Chinese invade? They'll be able to buy you soon enough....
