Diplomacy etc

LC as far as our constitution being applied to the way we deal with other people...well it just isn't the right way to do it. We should deal with other peoples the way they seem to deal with others. Everyone always says that America uses bullying tactics. Well, hell, what did the British do to anyone and everyone for 250 yrs or more. Being the big guy on the block always brings out those who use that as a way to get what THEY want. In a war(I've posted this before) the only way to win is to be nastier than the other guy...be the bully..the big nasty country. If it weren't for the allied countries(supplied by the US) being nastier than the Germans and the Japanese...the British would be speaking German now and the Australians Japanese. And there would be a lot of countries still enslaved by the Russian communists. The reason Russian communism folded was as a direct result of the US. We spent them into oblivion and at the same time nearly ourselves. Canada didn't help to pay for that. At least to the best of my knowledge. Want to pony up a whole lot of cash to help pay for a(somewhat) safer world? At least you don't have to worry about getting nuked by the Russians like ya used to. Oh, by the way! The bullies did that! If you can read this without glowing in the dark....thank the US.

And in case you are wondering I like the country to our north and her people. I used to hunt and fish up there but no longer do because of the onerous firearms laws y'all have. If ya have a gun they treat ya like a criminal..or at least they did the last time I came hunting up there. Get those stupid laws changed for goodness sake
