One of the benefits of living just south of DC!

Here are my sign ideas:

"Don't get teabagged, restore sanity!" I would wear fake testicles on my forehead with this one!

"Help me John, I fear my sanity!"

I'm a bit baffled by the criticism of the Teaparty movement. It seemse to me that much of the criticism is of the straw-man variety.

My issue with the Teaparty, is that I wanted to become part of the movement, but it got taken over by the religious whack jobs. As soon as I saw Sarah Palin as the keynote speaker at a teaparty rally, I knew the movement had been hijacked by the far right.

If it had simpy stayed a movement concerned with Constitutional issues, it would've drawn in more moderates like me.  :-\

Teaparty movement? Sounds like something you have after a bad lot of scones and fairy cakes.

Maybe the milk in the tea was off.

At least here in Australia we have politics that mean something.

Yeah, here in Australia, we have year long elections about who gets to bugger the bejesus out of blow up dolls of Paul Hogan and Mel Gibson.

Politics with REAL meaning!!  :O_o:

it isnt the greatest country, scandanavian countrys have a higher standard of living, the people live longer Etc.
swizerland also is a better country than america, if not for the simple fact that its home to lots of beautiful mountains!

what we got here? lots of crime, gangs, drugs, certain parts of the country are more expencive than others. the cost of living is almost always the most expencive along the beach and then once you move inland it seems less expencive, and lots of fucking christains everywhere.

some states are beautiful, but the south is complete garbage. i could really be happy anywhere, in the world that had running hot water, electricity, and the internet.

If they were US citizens with US passports traveling out of the country, you would need a notarized permission form from the other parent to bring them across the border.

You need the same here as well. If you leave the country with a child and one parent is not traveling with them, you need a notarized letter from the other parent.

Monkeyboy has dual citizenship (US and Canadian) and monkeygirl is just a Canuck.

Given as Canada is much bigger than the US, it should be the other way around. Then the health care system in the US could improve 10 fold.

Why do people think that US citizens in the northern states are driving to Toronto, Montreal and Winnipeg for prescriptions? Because it's cheaper, and they aren't getting fucked over by the US system.

Technically, it's the fault of the US citizens, because they allowed a lot of this crap to go through. People vote for the government they get, and because not everyone who is eligible actually does vote, the result is skewed either one way or another. Then that particular government allows the HMOs to do whatever they want, and enacts legislation to keep the health system in the hands of these people. Public health in the states is a farce, because even in emergencies you aren't guaranteed to be treated by the closest hospital to where you live, or where the accident happened. So if Canada, with a far better system as CG says, were to annex the US, and take control of the whole situation, things would change.

We are lucky that we don't have the same problems here, and contrary to what one or two dickheads with no intelligence think, Australia is NOT AND NEVER HAS BEEN a Stalinist or communist  country. We stand for our beliefs here, just like the US and the rest of the free world, but we also don't let the big business heavyweights and parasites push us around.

The US sucks, but I ain't going down that path! Canada, Europe, Australia, etc. are way better.
