Opportunity For Gratuitous Canada Teasing

Oops.
In his interview with NBC's Kelly O'Donnell, which will air on NBC's Nightly News tonight, McCain questions whether Obama should have given a speech in Berlin before becoming president.

"I would rather speak at a rally or a political gathering any place outside of the country after I am president of the United States," McCain told O'Donnell. "But that's a judgment that Sen. Obama and the American people will make."

However, on June 20, McCain himself gave a speech in Canada — to the Economic Club of Canada — in which he applauded NAFTA's successes.
Well... It is Canada after all, which is really just part of America: You know how the grass and manicured shrubbery in some people's back yard ends at a certain point and beyond that is 40 or 50 feet of trees, weeds, brush, overgrowth, and the occasional compost heap and rusty swing-set... but how that area is still part of those people's property? That's kind of what Canada is to America.

Well, the rabbit who lives out behind the old water-filled tire covered in moss underneath the swing-set doesn't receive a much warmer welcome when he comes into the yard to eat the gardenias. ;-)

Canada is indeed a seperate country.
Feel fortunate that you get to enjoy the 'rough' treatment that the gestapo guarding the swiss cheese borders get to dish out.
