No but that is i believe inevitable. As globalisation continues, barriers fall and we all 'should' become more open.

Theres more people with my views in other countries so why should i feel anything for my nation. The borders are pretty arbitary and in Europe you can travel, live and work anywhere you want.

Interesting notion; under that idea, does the planet eventually get to a world-wide election for a planetary government?

Bush is a moron. Plain & simple! He stole the election and spat on the foundation of democracy in which the people elect their leader.

I would worry if everyone liked him.

It just means he stands up for something.

Hitler stood up for something too.

What would you know? YOU LIVE IN CANADA! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
They thought the same of Abe Lincoln in the Civil War. Those who cricized him back then are now regarded as fools. Bush at least has the common sense to do something in world, instead of pussyfooting around like you Canadians and the rest of you socialist hippies do. :rotf: :rotf:

You spit on the those who died in the Holocaust by comparing Bush to Hilter.
Its disrespectful to those who died. Bush isnt invading Canada or Mexico stupid.

Just because I live in Canada I wouldn't know? kiss my ass! I read the papers and watch the news as well.
As for pussyfooting? I don't think Canada pussyfoots. Canada just has a better way of doing things on an international level. Things like PEACEKEEPING! There is a reason why the rest of the world have positive things to say about Canada and absolute hatred for the United States.

With global trade and freedom of movement + the internet i dont see why we arent moving that way. A president of earth is obviously pretty far fetched now but in a hundred years? who knows...

Bush is an easy hate figure but hating him will get you nowhere, he's just a puppet, and his apparent idiocy serves as good cover for some of the s**t he pulls. Dont waste your time hating the scumbag, hate the system he perpetuates.

I support his war, because a big and deadly regime was wept from the world.

Well, if anyone here on this forum would become the leader of a Global power - such as the US; then I guarantee u that no matter what u think and what u do, there will always be somebody in the world who will consider u to be a "devil", "moron", "deviant" etc... Its just the way it is. :-|

I live in Canada, and I have actually heard him called a terrorist.... Personally I think that's a bit extreme, but hey!

Anyhow, Bush relies on the Bible belt to get in, he's stokes the fires of fear, and is intollerant towards gays... If he didn't invade Iraq, people would still hate him for this. I know I do

I'm from Canada and this is what I think of him:
He slightly resembles a Chimp
He's a warmonger
He needs vocabulary lessons
He has little to no finacial sense, war is NOT profitable for countries involved
He's stupid to think his "war on terror" will stop terrorism or even stem it.
And that is what I think.

I'm sorry, you say he needs vocabulary lessons, yet you spell many words wrong yourself.

I'm not saying you're wrong, or stupid, I just think it's funny.
