All Americans...A MUST read...
 

A TRIBUTE TO THE UNITED STATES


This, from a Canadian newspaper, is worth sharing.


America: The Good Neighbor.


Widespread but only partial news coverage was
given
recently to a remarkable editorial broadcast from
Toronto by Gordon Sinclair, a Canadian television
commentator. What follows is the full text of his
trenchant remarks as printed in the Congressional Record:




"This Canadian thinks it is time to speak up for
the
Americans as the most generous and possibly the least
appreciated people on all the earth.

Germany, Japan and, to a lesser extent, Britain and
Italy were lifted out of the debris of war by the
Americans who poured in billions of dollars and
forgave other billions in debts. None of these
countries is today paying even the interest on its
remaining debts to the United States.

When France was in danger of collapsing in 1956,
it was the Americans who propped it up, and their
reward was to be insulted and swindled on the streets
of Paris. I was there. I saw it.

When earthquakes hit distant cities, it is the
United States that hurries in to help. This spring, 59
American communities were flattened by tornadoes.
Nobody helped.

The Marshall Plan and the Truman Policy pumped
billions of dollars! into discouraged countries. Now
newspapers in those countries are writing about the
decadent, warmongering Americans.

I'd like to see just one of those countries that
is gloating over the erosion of the United States
dollar build its own airplane. Does any other country
in the world have a plane to equal the Boeing Jumbo
Jet, the Lockheed Tri-Star, or the Douglas DC10?
If so, why don't they fly them? Why do all the
International lines except Russia fly American Planes?

why does no other land on earth even consider putting
a man or woman on the moon? You talk about Japanese
technocracy, and you get radios. You talk about German
technocracy, and you get automobiles.

You talk about American technocracy, and you find
men on the moon -! not once, but several times -
and safely home again.

You talk about scandals, and the Americans put theirs
right in the store window for everybody to look at.
Even their draft-dodgers are not pursued and hounded.
They are here on our streets, and most of them, unless
they are breaking Canadian laws, are getting American
dollars from ma and pa at home to spend here.

When the railways of France, Germany and India
were breaking down through age, it was the Americans
who rebuilt them. When the Pennsylvania Railroad and
the New York Central went broke, nobody loaned them an
old caboose. Both are still broke.

I can name you 5000 times when the Americans raced
to the help of other people in trouble. Can you name
me even one time when someone else raced to the
Americans in trouble? I don't think there was outside
help even during the San Francisco earthquake.

Our neighbors have faced it alone, and I'm one
Canadian who is damned tired of hearing them get
kicked around. They will come out of this thing with
their flag high. And when they do, they are entitled
to thumb their nose at the lands that are gloating
over their present troubles. I hope Canada is not one of
those."

Stand proud, America!

"I hope Canada is not one of those."

The U.S.A. is our next door neighbor. We have opened our homes, hospitals and have sent some of our best people over there to help out anywhere they can. There is a line up around the corner to get to the blood banks here in Toronto. It's really cool to see... Anyway Canada has always been down to help the U.S.A. whenever we can...

Thank you for sharing this Fade19 http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/wink.gif

Minds are like parachutes: They only function when OPEN

That was actually written more than a few years ago. I read it in someone's post on the PC boards last year, but I know that I first read it well before that. I've wanted to find it and post it more than a few times lately, because I really don't enjoy seeing posts from people in countries that ought to be more grateful saying nasty things about the USA or Canada for that matter.

Someone on another board here, for example, said yesterday "that's what you get for sticking your nose into the affairs of other countries so often" (loosely quoted, you get the idea), and I thought "what a nervy moron to think that way!!"
Why did I think that? I'll tell you.... my uncle said it best when operation desert storm was starting, he said:

"Just like your town needs a policeman to police & protect your neighborhoods, so does the world need a policeman to protect those peoples in the world that can't protect themselves. The USA IS that policeman & protector for the world, because they are the only country that has the resources coupled with moral decency to get the really big dirty jobs done"

In cases like desert storm, bosnia and now this terrorist attack, the USA can count on Canada 110% I'm sure.
