1. All we have left
is our hope and our laughter.

I'm not going to quit either.

2. So you know what you have to do? Get your ass off of the couch... or keyboard...
and move out to the streets and get your fellow citizens to join you! Sounds tough? You bet your ass it going to be! Nobody ever said that taking back your country was going to be easy! So, how about it? Lets get started on this one.... A door to door campaign is what is called for!

3. Why are you telling someone else to do it when you're sitting here at a keyboard, too?
It's entirely possible to express despair online AND be in the streets.

Besides which fact, we're in the most important street of all ... which is why
the government is fighting so hard to control it.

happens, you can bet your sweet ass I will be there....

my whining...ah nevermind. What a waste of time.

16. Oh, so it's all our problem?
Despite the fact the man staged a coup via rigged elections without one peep from international quarters?

This man is a monster -- you should admire the people on this board. Every single American on here is taking
her/his freedom and possibly life into their own hands by protesting against him. Don't discount online protest.
Also many -- like me -- may be disabled. Not everyone can "get off their ass".

21. Sorry for your discomfort and don't want to fight with you... Hey, I am a
duh.... Canadian in your country, and I can see the problem.... (Oh and by the way suhhhhhh ) Cause I am a legal Alien... (No, not illegal, but legal, ok?) So I must tread softly, while you do the work... But if you want to just sit here and whine about it... Hey whatever... I will just go back to my native country and let you guys wallow in it... The problem is, you have to make the people of your country aware of a. Where they live b. what kind of circumstances they live in and c. How they might change this situation....

But hey, what the hell do I know anyway... I am just a dumb Canuk.... Best of luck to you with this...

31. Actually, she changed her country and city a few minutes ago
she WAS from London, Ontario. Now it is different, guess she doesn't know where she lives!

Weird.

35. Well apparently she prefers to do her SEWING while we do the dirty work.
I am so sick of armchair radicals. Everyone's and idea man, but nobody wants to do the real work. I've done it, I'm doing it, I'll never stop, but I don't need any advice from nosy needlepointers.

39. She's talking to herself
Whenever you see someone venting frustration like that in sermons, they're almost always
preaching what they need to hear.

You're the one doing the stereotyping.

As I said, who is sitting here and whining about it? While I'm typing to you, I'm uploading my OpEdNews
article for tomorrow. I just emailed my Progressive Life column also. What have YOU done today?

Whenever I read a post like this preaching to others, I'm always suspicious that the person is actually
talking to herself. You project your frustration with your own inaction on others.

The "people of my country" ARE aware. Haven't you noticed? 70% of us disapprove or moderately disapprove of this man -- 47% despise him.

Whether you go or stay doesn't matter -- your PM and our pResident have already planned out (With Vincente Fox and his
successor) the merging of us into one country. So dies your culture and so dies mine. And your government helped
to expedite it just as ours did.

13. I've been in the streets so many times with a million others, and for what?
Nobody reports it, nobody knows it's happening, Washington says "who cares what you think" - on BOTH sides. I've marched and marched and marched - with a MILLION Feb 15, The World Says No to War, a MILLION during the RNC against Bush, every TIME there is a freaking protest I show up, but why? To be covered on page 19 of the NYT? On C-Span 3 and nowhere else? To dark and shuttered windows in Washinton? We protest in a vacuum. What for?

15. Yeah, well how would he know?
Edited on Thu Jul-19-07 11:13 PM by Stephanie

Unless he's tuned to C-Span he'd have no idea, before, during or after. Feb 15, 2003, March 2003, RNC August 2004 (an entire WEEK of protest), before AFGHANISTAN, 2002, peace vigils, protests outside of Clnton's office, the UN, UFPJ march 2006, DC January 2007, SO MANY MARCHES, SO LITTLE COVERAGE, AND NOBODY GIVE A DAMN. I am telling you there were a MILLION in NYC for both the 2/15/03 march and the big anti-RNC march 2004. But it wasn't on Candadian tv so I guess we should try a little harder. I have experienced first-hand on an intimate level the news blackout policies in this country. Yes, I'm sure it's all heaven in Canada. But we are doing what we can.

18. Exactly -- we're all screaming, no one cares
They're setting up a government so bad that they think we'll all leap into the North American Union to escape this one.
Thankfully, many of us have more regard for our country than that.

Still, we ARE all yelling -- in Bush space, no one can hear you scream, I guess.

23. So you think it's that easy... "I have been here and done that"
Nice try... You better think again... "Try Harder for Fuck sake" This is not a little league game that you are playing... This is Life or Death and you know that... Just like your fellow citizens in Iraq and our fellow citizens in Afghanistan know this... Your POS Government started this war, and we want our young men and women out of Afghanistan now as well... So don't whine to me, just get your bonny ass out on the street and do some protesting to stop this Bullshit....

Why don't you tell us what is REALLY on your mind? So far all I see is whining, is that all you can do? Just a Canadian in America that can't participate in protests? Is that the best you got?

So you gonna change what city you're from in the next few minutes, again?

Just curious.

How DARE you give me orders? You have NO IDEA the time, effort and financial sacrifice I've given to fighting Bush and his enablers, including some Democrts. Show your face HERE and add YOUR voice to OURS or BACK THE FUCK OFF. We don't need any backseat fucking drivers.

7. What do you mean how silly I sound? How do you think this situation is ..
going to get resolved? Nothing silly about it! You folks need to quit bitching, and get down to the nitty gritty! Unless of course you are all chicken, all talk.. and would rather just sit here and let things go on as they are! If that's the case, then quit your bitchin.... and just let it happen... It will probably be painless... You can all just bow to King George and that will be the end of it...

11. Canada is
the United States real strategic oil reserve, Mexico the strategic labor reserve.

My apologies in advance for what is most likely to happen, but it is in the hands of the international bankers, not ours.

There is an old joke that goes...

A young sailor on his first deployment tells his bunkmate that after two weeks he can't take the lack of sex.

His buddy tells him to go to the aft deck at 11pm and there he will find a barrel with a hole in it, and he'll know what to do.

He returns a little after midnight and tells his friend, that wasn't too bad, I could do that everyday.

His friend tells him, no not everyday, Thursday is your day in the barrel.

Our day in the barrel will be here soon.

19. Er, most of us HAVE done that. Many times, in fact
but our media doesn't cover our marches-or if it does, it reports that we've marched in far smaller numbers than we have.

I've also canvassed door to door. I do internet activism, I write letters, sign petitions, boycott corporate enablers....got any other EFFECTIVE ideas?

38. Your Time Is Gonna Come....
Lyin', cheatin', hurtin, that's all you seem to do.
Messin' around with every guy in town,
Puttin' me down for thinkin' of someone new.
Always the same, playin' your game,
Drive me insane, trouble is gonna come to you,
One of these days and it won't be long,
You'll look for me but baby, I'll be gone.
This is all I gotta say to you woman:

Your Time Is Gonna Come....

Made up my mind to break you this time,
Won't be so fine, it's my turn to cry.
Do want you want, I won't take the brunt.
It's fadin' away, can't feel you anymore.
Don't care what you say 'cause I'm goin' away to stay,
Gonna make you pay for that great big hole in my heart.
People talkin' all around,
Watch out woman, no longer
Is the joke gonna be on my heart.
You been bad to me woman,
But it's coming back home to you.

Your Time Is Gonna Come....
