| Peter Jennings became American because his kids are being raised in a country gone mad with nativist xenophobia and retained his Canadian citizenship after becoming American. He was denounced by the rabid American right after 9/11 simply for being Canadian and had to cope with an environment that now treats Canadians as potential security threats. He didn't see the light, he was dying of cancer in a country suddenly pre-occupied with labelling, exclusion and racial profiling. It's a sentiment familiar to most Canadians that have met Americans in the past 4 years. |

Really? I'd be hard pressed to think of a single American I've met in the past few years who cared one way or another that I was Canadian. |

Either a) good satire or b) you're extremely paranoid and totally out of touch with the American public (perhaps been in Korea too long? IDK)
The "rabid" American right didn't care about Jennings; it has been too focused on Dan Rather and other parts of the "liberal" media. |

Perhaps you're out of touch with what it means to be Canadian in America's world. |

Sometimes Americans tease Canadians because its fun. Sometimes we want to be teased back. It should all be in good fun. When it isn't, on either side, it is really kinda sad. |

| And does anyone else know that Peter Jennings is a fucking Canadian? Talk about a sleeper cell. Why isn��t that guy being interogated at Gitmo? I��ll tell you why- he��s a Canadian and so he is too nice. Nobody wants to trample on that. |

Libs would rather lie about the strong economy...than report it.
Last night on Peter Jennings he started this news stroy as follows.............
"And now we got to a report that says that the US economy is ACTUALLY....doing BETTER!"
As Peter rolls his eyes and clearly makes the point that he doesn't believe it.
...fucking Canadian piece of shit! |

Remember, this is the same country that's trying to build a monument for the fucking draft dogers, will not allow FOX to be broadcast in their country (I'm no FOX fanatic-but what the *beep* is up with that??)....and gave us the likes of Celene Dion and Peter Jennings.......and if Nancy Pelosi isn't a fucking Canadian, she should be....
May I be so bold as to say '*beep* Canada, right where it sucks air'.....
Neither I, nor the people of my country, give a squirt of PISS what the people of Canada think'
