Blaming Canada makes sense.

For the record, and I think I speak for Patrick as well-- he nor I were
“blaming Canada”, but simply riffing on the song from the TV show South Park
called “Blame Canada”. My statement was a line from the song.
My “I blame Bush” was a jab at Democrats and lefties, riffing on LFB’s
humorous “I blame Galidor”.
All of this is in fun, not serious analysis:-)

I blame democrats and lefties too--they didn’t stand up for what’s right and let
Dubya take all of America down the wrong path. They knew better yet, due to
political expediency, kept their mouths shut and let Dubya and the
administration sell off everything to big business interests and political
friends.
The political capital that the US had to do anything right and just in the world
was squandered away for the sake of getting Saddam and ‘spreading democracy’ (or
was it WMD’s--can’t remember). Now Iran and N. Korea’s leaders are laughing any
time the US ‘talks tough’ about restricting nuclear weapons programs. Iraq was
truly an insignificant country on the political map compared to the
aforementioned two countries, yet that’s where the US administration put its
focus.
Well, I stated before this whole thing started--‘Have fun storming the castle!’
Now, of course, we see the repercussions of the unjust ‘storming’ of Iraq.
I’m not John Kerry appreciator, but someone please explain to me how a decorated
Vietnam vet got mangled into looking like he was ‘soft on war’ and a president
and VP that never served and had deferments and even (maybe) went AWOL looked
like soldiers in action.
And now the same people that made that magic act happen are trying to do it to
Rep. Murtha. Well, as Dubya himself said eloquently, “There’s an old saying in
Tennessee — I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me
once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can’t get fooled again.”
