One last thought. In these political discussions some where in there will be interjected the ‘God Bless America’ into their conversation. With absolutely no disrespect to my cousin Americans, I question the person, ’should we not in this present day God Bless the world and the human race?’ Now that catches them off guard!

On a more personnel note as far as Matt is concerned. I took this southern gal I was dating at one time up to Canada. It was her first trip to the ‘Great White North’. I worked the trip home to seeing two of Matt Good shows at the Capitol Music Hall in Ottawa. The first show at one point between songs Matt got to saying something about the war and Bush. This gal I was dating (in the end I figured out she had an inherent insecurity issues, which is why we eventually broke up) got all spun out. She was like ‘who is this Matt Good? Is he a communist?”…lol I can laugh about it now. I said to her ‘give me a break’. He can say (Matt) what he wants. You don’t have to agree with his opinion. I told her it’s like Ted Nugent, opening for ZZ Top one time, announcing that ‘If you don’t support this war, you need to get your god dam liberal ass out of this country’. I just laughed at him. And of course I did not agree with his view. To say the least I went the second night of Matt’s show and took a good friend from back home. I had a GREAT time after leaving the girlfriend back at my parents! Yes I did…

If you’re poor, you deserve to die.

If you’re gay you deserve to die.

If you’re Liberal you deserve to die.

And so on…Isn’t that trying to eliminate “imperfection” to make a “perfect” race?

Ring a bell?

Please ignore it

Here’s an excerpt:
“John Wayne is a final, rotten symbol of everything that went wrong with the American Dream - he is our Frankenstein monster, a hero to millions. Wayne is the ultimate & perhaps final “American”. He beats the mortal shit out of anything he can’t understand. The brainwave of “The Duke” are like those of the Hammerhead Shark - a beast so stupid and irrationally vicious that scientists have abandoned all hope of dealing with it, except as an unexplainable “throwback”. The Hammerhead, they say, is no different today than he was in One Million B.C. He is ruthless, stupid beast with only one instinct - to attack, to hurt & cripple & kill. There is no evidence in modern science that the Hammerhead Shark had any ancestors - and no descendants, either. But science is at least half-wrong on this count. Like many another species, the Hammerhead survived by moving to a new habitat. The most advanced of them came out of the sea and learned to walk on land. They learned to speak American - despite their tiny brains… “

Sound familiar?
Kill what you don’t understand
Fear all things new or different

The bonus is, these people are in a public forum. We know who they are and exactly what their agenda is. It’s the ones we don’t know about until it’s to late that we need to worry about.

Before the year 2000, who here had honestly, ever heard of The Project for the New American Century???

David Cross is hilarious.

I took your suggestion and had a look. Topic was gun control in Canada and it brought out the usual arguments on both sides. I read 14 pages of comments until I got bored of it. In 14 pages, not a single reference to god.

That’s different.

Right about that, and to a lesser extent the Micheal Corwin show on CLT. They don’t speak violently but they do go on about everything being the far left liberal loons fault and yadda yadda. I believe the main reason they do this is because they see their old world view going the way of the dinosaur as the boomers age and they want to inspire an new generation of bigots and xenophobes, their extinction can’t come soon enough.

The human rights tribunal cases, for instance the one involving the comedian and the lesbian hecklers sure is a contrast. The comission has come under a lot of scrutiny lately for the cases it is willing to consider, but perhaps it’s better to err on the side of caution regarding these things.

I sense that some Americans would say that those radio hosts have a right to free speech and that it is an essential part of the “freedom” that makes Americans so proud.

What a strange kind of freedom…[/quote]

Guess again, these guys exist in Canada, too. Turn on your AM radio during the day and listen carefully…
you’ll find it’s much more liberating to leave it off, and make up your mind for yourself through alternative news.

Obviously you did not see that episode of Bonanza where he lectured Hoss and Little Joe about the evils of homosexuality after he caught them dressing up in women’s clothes out in the barn.

A good point! Lowel Green emphatically preaches paranoia-based intolerance.

But when you call autistic kids brats who haven’t been told to cut the act, then you sir are not human.

Can I send this Reverend Brice some money somehow?[/quote]

Let’s be careful, and not be so quick to dehumanize the dehumanizers in a fit of terrible irony.

Hmmmmm, ever hear of Lorne Greene? I think that guy is borderline sometimes.
