Here's proof of the existence of Canadian freepers [View All]

Just as bad as American ones. This guy, Paul Jackson, is always spouting sad crap like this. Sorry for posting the whole thing, but the Sun doesn't seem to have archived stuff, and if I just post the link, it's liable to be gone tomorrow. Well, here's the link anyway, he's always good for a chuckle.

You should also know that Calgary is one of the only places in Canada where this drivel can be published without the author being laughed out of town. Notice especially his keen grip on history's subtleties.

Four-square for George
U.S. prez enjoyed terrific year indeed
By PAUL JACKSON -- Calgary Sun

A shroud of critics gather over my head as the New Year opens and ask why I stand up for President George W. Bush.

Truth to tell, I don't. He doesn't need me to stand up for him.

But I stand right behind him in his war against international terrorism and tyranny.

And who can deny 2003 wasn't a top-notch year for Bush?

Bush, a history buff who has learned the lessons of the past, is a much-maligned man.

He knows the mighty Roman Empire wasn't destroyed by a superior civilization. But by nomadic German Tribes. Men in caves. Sound familiar?

Yet the American Lib-Left -- and the shameless anti-Americans in Europe -- have to try and demean Bush and his administration as it fights for sanity in the world.

One way to destroy a society is to fill its people with doubts about their place in the world. Then get them to disparage and denigrate their own values.
