Jesus Murphy, would you damn yanks keep your stupid to yourselves please.

What in hell did we ever do to y’all to deserve this, I ask you?

It’s not enough we had to put up with the stupid that is Ann Coulter a few weeks ago, no, no, now we’re getting a double dose of weapons grade stupid when Sarah Palin speaks in Hamilton, Ont.

Look, I’m sure we can reach a compromise, we’re reasonable people, after all. How’s about we take Tina Fey off your hands and you keep Sarah. Huh? How’s that sound?

Suddenly I want tighter border controls. (This is how it starts, isn’t it?)

That’s what you get for inflicting Bryan Adams and Celine Dion on us.

Don’t make us have to come up there and burn down your Parliament [again](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_York), cause if you take Fey we’ll sho nuff do it.

How about we give you back Shatner (but we’re keeping Nimoy) and we’ll tell Dan Aykroyd (we’ll keep Eugene Levy).

Oh YEAH? Well, don’t make us come down there and burn YOURS down again. 😃

I do look forward to Palin speaking here, though - who knows how she’ll manage to embarrass herself.

Which Palin would immediately say was Obama’s fault (though only partly for political reasons- the main reason being she can’t spell Canada).

When your nation produces a surplus of a commodity, you export it. Capitalism!

I think I’ve mentioned this on the board before, but the hell with it.

When my mother moved down to the states, she had the year before taken a course in Canadian school that included the War of 1812.

Her first year in school in the U.S. had a course that included the War of 1812.

It took her some time to realize that it was the same war.

Wasn’t that the War of Northern Aggression?

We are not unarmed. If you Canucks don’t fall in line we send Beck and Limbaugh up there. You’ll think of Coulter as the good old days.  
Sarah is one of your own. When she got medical care from the Canadian system, she became one of you. You may take her back now.

Talk to your fellow Canadians who are buying tickets to see her.

Please tell me that she is appearing at Hamilton’s Staircase?

Then again, it’s Hamilton. That place gets dumped on by everyone, so perhaps an evening’s entertainment by Tits will cheer them up.

That’s easy, it’s the abbreviation for Canadian National Dominion, C.N.D. – C, eh?, N, eh?, D, eh? 😃

If she should meet with an…unfortunate…accident with a bear or moose or something, we wouldn’t retaliate.

Go ahead and joke. Say what you will, sirs, but this is a foul and dastardly affair. I’ll say it and mean it. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

You make fun of our money, and wear our flag on your backpacks, and we understand because you’re like our cousins. But this, this is going to far, I say.

We have our own brand of stupid here and we do not want it sullied, spoilt, tainted by your, more mature strain. Keep that shit to yourselves.

We will not soon forget this.  
This is not over.
