We lost.
Conservatives won. Canada. I am not looking forward to becoming a State of America. I am not looking forward to becoming a part of the States anti-missal program, the one Martin, Liberal PM, snubbed bush on. I am not looking forward to the Redneck Harper taking away a woman’s choice. Would not surprise me if Harper were a closet BAC.It is not a good day.

It is a weak minority for the Conservative party. Both parties spent mega bucks during the campaign. It will not be to Conservative benefit to propose anything extreme which will force a vote of confidence and another election.
What this means to me is, Harper cannot become bush’s puppy. Bucks or not, if Harper chooses to kiss bush’s a$$, there will be another election. There will be no cooperation with the American missal defence program. It will be status quo. I like status quo, especially since we are second only to the Saudis in oil reserves. I saw somewhere we have ten times the amount of oil reserves than all the Arab and Persian countries combined, but I wont quote that without a reference handy. Status quo is cool; we can do nothing and just sit back and wait. Water? Later, after all this is only my second post on this Forum. Martin, at this moment, just resigned as the Liberals leader. I never liked Paul Martin, other than seeing the awe on his face in the presence of the Dalai Lama; Martin backstabbed Prime Minister Jean Cretien, (I loved Cretien). I personally never forgave Martin. Tonight he paid the piper. |

Hi dov, welcome.
I'm sorry to hear that you have so much oil. that means it is just a matter of time before we have to liberate your country form its oil, err, cruel dictatorship, thus leaving one less country for some of us to consider moving to...

Thank you for the welcome fff. Buhbuh and his other brother Buhbuh from Georgia could not handle our minus 60c weather. An American invasion here would make the Nazis in Russia look like a day in the tropics. Who needs an army when Mother Nature protects us. |

I'm sorry you're bummed and I can understand it. I was pretty upset about Bush's win in '04. At least you can DO a vote of no confidence if need be (which I certainly hope won't be needed.) We're stuck. Long, big sigh.
Oh, speaking of oil, my Non-Western Environments prof said this: "We can't use Iraqi oil. It's not the KIND of oil we use." WTF?? and WTF kind of class is Non-Western Environments, anyway?

If more have your bush attitude, I may like it here. Hope there are a few BAC rednecks to bounce off on here. (Just a few) Thank you for your concern. |

It sounds like a misunderstanding of how crude oil works. The oil that comes out of the ground in Iraq is different than the stuff that comes out in Texas or the North Sea or etc. They require slightly different refining methods... the stuff out of M.E. is supposed to be higher quality ("light sweet crude", with low sulfur content) and thus easier to refine. But all stuff called crude oil can be refined to produce petrol/gasoline.
It may be that US refinieries are not equipped to handle Iraqi crude oil for some reason, like there's a substance in it that they don't remove. But it doesn't matter because if SOME refinery somewhere can refine it, it has the same economic value to the world. (You may be allergic to peanuts, but the fact that peanuts are sold cheaply, lowers the price of cashews that you aren't allergic to.) |

I'm a redneck, bounce away
It's okay, we'll still protect you with our "missals" even if you don't help foot the bill. /spar

Welcome, Dov. We're going to need all you hosers up there to construct and pay for the infrastructure to liberate all the petroleum from the oil sands they're trapped in before we'll be ready to liberate you from your oppressive Socialist government.
Let us know when you've got that taken care of, okay?

Its cool, China is taking care of that concern. They have set up the technology and are personally extracting what we are selling them. We are the States number one supplier of oil. We are a bit nervous considering you eight trillion dollar deficit. We kinda like being paid for our oil. Quote:
