Oh, and enjoy the softwood lumber we're shipping down (through tropical storm Ophelia, btw) that'll be used to rebuild your city under the sea.

These blanket statements make me sick. In contrast to the constant nationalistic bickering on this board and the vitriol that's spewed by media extremists, whenever a real emergency arises our respective countries will be there for each other without hesitation or reservation.

In this time of need, all of the resources of this country are available for the assistance of Katrina relief efforts. If its needed, it will be sent. This has been stated by even our harshest Bush critics.

If this had happened to Canada, the Bush administration would have been the first government to offer relief.

Leaders will come and go and policies will change. We are so intertwined - America, the greatest of nations, and Canada, the richest of nations (resourcefully speaking) - that the opinion of a single administration is irrelevant. Times change, but our countries will nedd each other long after we're all dead and buried.

We are your little brother, and we will do what we can to help. You hate us, but still you'd beat the shit out of anyone who picked on us.

God bless America. Long live the Queen. Now I need a beer.

P.S. I waited over an hour to post this. Had two beers and now I'm going to hit "Submit". May God have mercy on my post...
