Why shouldn't Canada complain when a news organization taunts one of the few countries whose troops in Iraq engage in combat missions?



Freedom of speech?

And the Canadian government has the freedom to say 'Fuck you.  Say you're sorry.'  That's how freedom of speech works, you third-worlder.

I am shocked, *shocked* to hear that something stupid, juvenile and offensive aired on Fox News
To be fair, Red Eye is probably the best news show on FOX. I can't believe any serious politician would take offense at Gutfeld. It was a mistake for Greg to apologize to the Canadian surrender monkeys. Given the usual content of the show, if he starts now, there will be no end in sight.

But "Say you are sorry for implying that the US should invade Canada when its army is on a 'stand-down'" just sounds so retarded.  Granted, these are politicians and so by definition more willing than most to sound retarded, but even for politicians, and even Canadian politicians, this is retarded.

In the shoes of the comedians, i would have said "fuck you, say you are sorry for asking me to say that i am sorry."  Bad publicity helps comedians and hurts politicians.

No Canadian politician can do wrong starting a row with Americans.  Especially Americans from Fox News.

Well to be fair, neither can fox.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Israeli.

You are from fucking Alberta, you primitive savage.

And Israel is a develped and civilized country.
If Israel is part of the 3rd world, then western Europe is so too.

Alberta is part of the West.  Thus, it is civilized.

Besides, I don't believe in gods, nor do I believe in magical powers.  I am civilized.  You are exactly the same as an Arab or an African.
QuoteAnd Israel is a develped and civilized country.

Not at all.  Israel is full of Russians and Sefardi, rather than the civilized Jews of the West.  Israel is east of the Oder river, and is thus uncivilized.
