Maryann points to the care the US provided to the injured Canadian soldiers: Soldier's Angels doing their good work, Fisher House doing the right thing and supporting the Canadian families and soldiers.
It's what you do for a comrade.
I briefly met David while in Germany and he truly is America's friend and he's dumbfounded by his own who have no morals.
(Correction - Author is Ray D not David) No matter.
SPIEGEL ONLINE: A Perverted New Low....
Headline: "Psychology: Why some People want to have Sex with Buildings and Machines" (Photo caption depicts women holding models of the World Trade Center)So much for showing respect to the American friends. It doesn't matter that nearly 3000 people died in those buildings. Now it is apparently OK to exploit them for tasteless stories on people with sexual perversions.
As David sometimes says: "You may throw-up now."
James at The American Thinker has his thoughts
No, really. A.L., you'll like this.
Ace hips us to a deservedly painful smackdown of a person lacking a moral clue. It's not a good idea to torque off this Newfie:
Dear Noreen,I am so sorry to hear about the interruption to your holiday cheer. You say in your column that it all started when the CBC ran a story on some “poor sod” who got his legs blown off in Afghanistan.
The “poor sod” in question, Noreen, has a name and it is Cpl. Paul Franklin. He is a medic in the Forces and has been a buddy of mine for years. I had dinner with him last week in Edmonton, in fact. I will be sure to pass on to him that his lack of legs caused you some personal discomfort this Christmas.
Is there anything better than moralizing by a Finn? Except maybe the same by a Norwegian? Well, until Norway gets their act together, we're stuck with the UN's Martin Scheinin faulting the US human rights record. Needless the say, the 12 page preliminary report, at least as reported, is decidedly weak tea we begin by defining "torture" down:
Still, he said reports that information was obtained from terror suspects using "enhanced interrogation techniques" amounted to a form of torture or inhumane treatment that is illegal under international law, particularly the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights treaty the United States signed.
Look, naked man-ass pyramids and barking dogs are unpleasant and may even be abusive (yes for the man ass, "eh" for the barking dogs), but that isn't torture. This is torture. So is this.
