Canadian's Version of David Letterman's Top 10



10) Only in America...could politicians talk about the greed of the rich at a $35,000.00 a plate campaign fund-raising event.



9) Only in America...could people claim that the government still discriminates against black Americans when they have a black President, a Black Attorney General, and roughly 18% of the federal workforce is black while only 12% of the population is black.



8) Only in America...could they have had the two people most responsible for our tax code, Timothy Geithner (former head of the Treasury Department) and Charles Rangel (who once ran the Ways and Means Committee), BOTH turn out to be tax cheats who are in favor of higher taxes.



7) Only in America...can they have terrorists kill people in the name of Allah and have the media primarily react by fretting that Muslims might be harmed by the backlash.



6) Only in America...would they make people who want to legally become American citizens wait for years in their home countries and pay tens of thousands of dollars for the privilege, while they discuss letting anyone who sneaks into the country illegally just 'magically' become American Citizens.



5) Only in America...could the people who believe in balancing the budget and sticking by the country's Constitution be thought of as "extremists."



4) Only in America...could you need to present a driver's license to cash a check or buy alcohol, but not to vote.



3) Only in America...could people demand the government investigate whether oil companies are gouging the public because the price of gas went up when the return on equity invested in a major U.S. Oil company (Marathon Oil) is less than half of a company making tennis shoes (Nike).



2) Only in America...could the government collect more tax dollars from the people than any nation in recorded history, still spend a Trillion dollars more than it has per year - for total spending of $7-Million PER MINUTE, and complain that it doesn't have nearly enough money.



1) Only in America...could the rich people - who pay 86% of all income Taxes - be accused of not paying their "fair share" by people who don't pay any Income taxes at all.


Well, they make some good points don't they?

Then you better hope the democrats don't run Hillary, because if it is H. Clinton v Rand Paul, he will be President, guaranteed.

Yeah she's only got a 12 point lead over the sleaze. Why would anyone think she has a chance at beating him?

Because the polls are not the polls, err, you know what I mean. For a time Romney was in the lead remember ? Then he started running his mouth.

It all boils down to which one embarrasses themselves more once it really starts.

I'll tell you this much, alot of what got Obama elected was that the public percieved that he would avoid a war with Iran, and so far so good. We'll see what happens between now and 2016. But Hillary is on tape here and there with enough warmongering that people might remember and if they don't, the Paul, or any other republican campaign should remind them.........

WTF am I talking about, they don't learn from their mistakes..........

Regardless, Paul is percieved as somewhat of an isolationist, which will be a big asset in a broke country about to go a war with absolutely nothing to gain and everything to lose.

And really, the odds of those particular two being the choices are a bit remote. Maybe one, but not both. All I can say is the republicans better come up with someone alot less popular than Rand Paul if they want Hillary to win.

T^T




Termyn8or -> RE: Canadian's top ten list about the U.S. (7/13/2013 3:46:28 AM)

Oh, and just to clear that last line up - I really do believe the republicans wanted to lose. Nobody is that fucking stupid.

T^T

Romney was never in the lead. Not for single day.

The definitive record of the polling for the 2012 election. Romney never even got close.

There's nothing Canadian about that, and if you had the courage of your convictions you wouldn't have to pull that crap.

Man up and say what you think and own it.

Actually I just heard that some of the big money is getting behind Rand Paul. That's a big turnoff. (same guys who backed Romney)

T^T




DomKen -> RE: Canadian's top ten list about the U.S. (7/13/2013 5:30:24 PM)

What, you thought Paul was something other than a shill for the same old Republican power brokers?
