They definitely lack the resources, however the birth control problem is
due in large part to religious terrorists from the US who should be at a
UN tribunal being charged with crimes against humanity.

Yes, but don't forget that they will form a market for those who do have
the survival skills and can barter for assistance. They aren't in total
isolation for the most part.

There are still a lot of guns in Canada, and the biggest factor is the
population to resources ratio which will serve to limit conflict.

Hi Pete,

Where did you live in CT? I spent 24 years there, too, mostly in
West Hartford.

Bad joke (but it came from a Hispanic person):

Q: How do you tell a Hispanic *******?

A: Over 14 and not pregnant.

Hence the need to hoard ammo. ;-)

I don't do it, but I've thought about it.
It's rather expensive.

True. But there is also a shorter growing season and less arable land.
The greatest farming potential exists in South America.

You underestimate the farming in Canada, and you forget about the

It's not like "people" went into her home and dragged her out. She was a
beauty contestant in a national televised competition, for cripes sake,
and she gave a stupid answer to a question she should have been prepared
for. The Today show gave her a second chance and she barely redeemed
herself.

It's whitetrashbonics, which is rapidly gaining acceptance

That certainly describes Omelet perfectly. She also likes to throw the
occasional foreign phrase into her messages in order to appear worldly.

Leaver her alone? She is the poster girl for wasted tax dollars in our
school system. That clip should be played to every teacher and school
administrator in the US.

After that, every blond with a recordable IQ should stone her for giving
them the "dumb blond" reputation.

Some of her bumbling was probably stage freight once she got started and she
knew she did not have a viable answer, but still, it was a mess.

Perhaps the Republican party would like to prop up another dimwit for

Edwin, you are not a nice man. I recall that a while back, you seemed to
have
something other than vitriol and petty meanness to offer. I'm sorry you are
such
a dickhead.

As for this, "She is the poster girl for wasted tax dollars in our
school system" well, she probably tests well. That is what is happening
now, teachers are teaching the kids how to ace tests, not to learn anything.
It's CYOB all the way.

In any case, she is a child. And a gd beauty contest contestant, not a
budding nuclear
physicist. Joining the feeding frenzy does not look good on anyone.

I'm not against white bread. I don't eat bread unless I order a deli
sandwich. In fact, when I make bread it's usually white, but my main
use for white flour is pizza crust (consider it a bread type recipe).


I've made whole wheat pizza crust and I think whole wheat tortillas
beat out pita bread with falafel (make mine a falafel wrap, not a
falafel "sandwich")... but that's another discussion. LOL

I think you are confusing meanness and truthfullness. The girl is not real

It is still a fact that she is what she is, a poorly educated girl. She is
part of the future of our country, the people that will keep this land what
is it was, a world leader. Oh, that part is going to crap because we allow
this stuff to go on and make excuses. It won't get any better that way.
She is going to have to make her way in life and is poorly prepared to do
so. Sad, really.
