The World's Punching Bag

I had occasion to be in a chat room with a Canadian this afternoon. For a few weeks now this woman has pontificated on matters minute and large, the dangers of religion as well as the Constitution and the president.

She admitted she's afraid of Zed. (He who shall not be named by me unless absolutely necessary.)

I asked why if she's in Canada would she care about Zed. And she replied "If America gets a cold, Canada gets the flu."

Isn't that too bad. The whole world feels the flu coming on when we've been their punching bag since the 1950s. We have done nothing right, nothing decent, nothing noble. The Berlin Airlift, peacekeeping in Kosovo, disaster aid and relief, the Marshall Plan, Nato, aid to Africa. Absolutely nothing including helping to bring down the Soviet Union, freeing all the Eastern European countries from the oppression of communism and bringing democracy to Iraq.

It's all worthless shit from the crude cowboys. They still have the gall to have their hands out. What are they going to do now? They sense America is not available to protect them any longer. Oopsy Doopsy!

One contributory factor in the election of this marxist was the unceasing criticism of the holier than thou Europeans and Canadians. Zed promised if elected the rest of the world would love us.

Who doesn't want to be loved? So this nitwit was voted in. And now the world gets to reap what they sowed. If they had just been a little kinder, a little nicer, a little more generous in spirit to America all those years maybe America wouldn't have this catastrophe in the White House.

So go get the freaking flu. Get pneumonia. I'm not going to be lectured to any longer. Stand or fail on your own. You didn't give a rat's ass about us, don't be surprised if the sentiment is returned in kind now.
