Maybe he should give the speech in a mosque. Everybody would have to take his or her shoes before entering.

The Globe and Mail reported 200-300 protesters and two anti-protesters. In that story, some of the police were obviously amused by the shoe cannon, but told the woman she could not use it.

I would love to see his face when figures out that for every 400 he thought he was getting is going to exchange closer to 315. I bet the things "exchange" is what you do with that sweater Aunt May give you at Christmas time.

He couldn't get Texans to pay him, so he went to the "Texas" of Canada. Oil, cattle, agriculture and a lot of transplanted Texans.

Embarrassing that any Canadian is willing to contribute to his library fund.

No. Wait. He's not going to use any money that comes from his earnings. Whew!

You may notice that Bush will have trouble walking around. Our PM's head will be right up his @ss.

They love Bushie up there in Calgary. It's like a second Alaska. Rednecks and oil. I wonder if they can see Russia from there ?

actually you have to look south. The root stock of Alberta came up from the mid west US which is why they are usually out of step with the rest of the country. They luvs their bibles and their wars they do. If we can keep the oil you are welcome to them,lol.

I thought, after the incident in Iraq, that Bush said he would only speak in Mosques and Japanese restaurants.
