PULL YOUR PLUS-FOURS UP AND GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER

AND BRUSH YOUR HAIR ONCE IN A WHILE

As opposed to the continued independent existence of, say, Cuba?

Perhaps those tendencies do NOT equate to successful invasions.
(Earlier posts adequately note the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812.)

OK, here’s a hint. There was a big loser, and it wasn’t the USA, Canada, or Britain.

Hey, goddammit, you try walking around the mall dressed in a – hang on – (cut)rapacious, arrogant, destructive, domineering and imperialistic power(paste) suit and see how you get treated!

Mr. Green, make sure your Gary Ruppert begins each and EVERY sentence with “The fact is….”

BTW, where can I find your wife’s book?

An alternative would be to give political rights to the conquered Canadians, and then there would be a liberal majority in freshly expanded USA. Some of the incorporated teritories legalized gay marriage. So no, we would need evil overloards, but they would have to telecommute from Atlanta. Who in turn could be subjected to on-line attacks.

But a more important thing is that on page one Medved argues that we are soo nice that we never invaded Canada, and on page two he argues that only morons pine for our non-imperialist past because we always were engaged in some expedition there, occupation here etc. Apparently, we missed Canada due to attention deficiency disorder.

Wasn’t Medved oringally a movie critic?

Please don’t let it suck.

I haven’t been able to substantiate that. I may have dreamed it.

Believable, though, isn’t it?

Shite-making?

Arrrgghhh, I’ve just watched several consecutive minutes of the “Red Dwarf USA” pilot, and I want to scrub out my brain. Sweet weeping baby Jeebus, how could they take something so good and turn it into something so utterly shite? I mean, lordy, I’m not a screenwriter, or even a human, but I’m damn sure I could turn out something that would at least get the occasional laugh (and wouldn’t make viewers retch).

The Office. Red Dwarf. Arsing buggery fuckpants.

Please tell me this is not true, an american Father Ted set in New York….

(Hint: the seeds should be on top.)

And their seed will be on the… never mind.

Second, I wholeheartedly agree with the post. Medved has shown an amazing propensity for responding to rhetoric…with rhetoric. I won’t go so far as to say the United States is completely war-mongering and imperialistic (only slightly), but even if we were, what good would it do us to invade Canada? No offense to any Canadians, but it’s not as if the country is of major strategic value, unless we’re planning to invade Iceland or Greenland (and the only reason to do that would be to rename them Iceland and Big Iceland). I don’t think Medved understands that even budding empires know when an invasion is pointless.

Every time I get up to thinking, “What’s forty bucks a month?” I end up actually watching someone else’s cable and lose all motivation.

An Americanized Red Dwarf? Lemme guess, Rimmer was nothing like a wingnut and Lister was, well, not black?

Let me know if I’m wrong, maybe I’ll think about cable again.
