Bush: "Childrens do learn"...lol

I'm assuming that he just thought that Canada was part of the US, but since it's a "blue" state, he didn't bother thinking about it much.

Or he just had his head up his a** as usual.

I used to think that he called his mother to ask for "facts" before he spoke.. Because she's a feral pig with rabies, and has about as much social sense as a wolverine.

You have a crush on Barbara Bush,don't you?

I think it's a good likeness.

George is more feminine looking than Barbara.

Are you trying to troll me?

We took over 30,000 Americans into our homes, our private residential homes and let them stay with us for free while they were stranded.


With our own money, money we need to pay our mortgage, car payment etc, we fed the people in our homes who were stranded. While they were stranded for weeks.

If they needed money because they were traveling and were stranded, we gave our own money to them. No loan, no pay me back, here just have it because you need it.

All their prescriptions were filled for free.

He gave a speech and thanked any country who's leader called and gave sympathy, he thanked any country who took a moment of silence, he thanked any country who played the American national anthem. But in his speech thanking countries, he forgot us and you do not know why that is hurtful to us?

If he took the time to thank everyone in a speech, its hurtful to be forgotten when one country did the most out of all who were thanked. It was a slap in the face and made it seem like no one was grateful for what we did.

No,I wasn't trying to troll you. But you contradicted yourself in that last paragraph and I was just asking a simple question.

But yeah,Bush was a complete f***ing moron.

And thanks Canada for all your contributions.

Maybe I could have worded it better, it was late when I made the post and now its too early to think.

It was more we did not do all that for a thank you we really did it because that is the kind of people we are. But if he was giving a speech to thank countries he should have thanked us is all and it was really hurtful when he forgot us and thanked everyone else when he decided to thank countries.

Its like if you have a sick friend and went to take care of him/her every day. If you cooked their meals, helped them shower, paid their bills with your own money because they had none since they were too sick to work. You do that because you care but if they got better and had a party to celebrate and decided to give a thank you speech and they thanked people who came to see them once or one time brought them a sandwich but forgot to thank you, it would be hurtful even if you did not do it for the thank you.

So I am not trying to be contradictory but if one decides to thank everyone for their help and starts listing people and you forgot the one who did the most for you, its hurtful to that person even if they did it out of the good of their heart and not for the thank you, its hurtful to be forgotten.

I've met some Canadians who were total d*** heads.. But they were from Quebec..

I honestly don't remember this incident with all the madness that was on the TV everyday back then. So I just did a Google search and found this...

They just forgot? There's the Bush Administration for ya.

We do not really consider them Canadian as they also do not consider themselves Canadian thus their always trying to separate from us and be their own country. Its also why its considered very rude and a huge insult to mistake a Quebecois for a French Canadian and vice versa. That will start a glove drop for sure.




Pretty much. I know the American people were also very upset he forgot us. On the news after, I remember they interviewed some Americans and they expressed anger Bush forgot us and gave us heartfelt thanks.

I think and my memory is fuzzy on this, when Bush was asked why he forgot us because this made big time news, his forgetting us, he said something like Canada is part of America so it would be like thanking our own people. so perhaps he thought Canada was the 51st state.

Where Palin can see Russia from?

We rarely thank family!
