Ummmm.... The guy you're talking about is Canadian. He *is* a member of the
Commonwealth. Everybody agrees that he is appallingly ignorant, so it wasn't
a great shock to see his ignorance on display yet again, but it was wrong of
you to ascribe his ignorance to the USA.

Not necessarily. Could be due to watching all that US tv.

Yup. Some people call it "California", but officially, it has been
renamed to Afganistan (not to be confused with Afghanistan). Of course,
anybody who has been following Bob's exploits knows that he actually
went to Iraq, but who's counting? For another "of course", anybody
who's been following knows that Bob has been back for some time.

still, he probably stands a greater chance of being injured there than of
being dinged by your ace team of 'lawyers.'

Ah, thank you. I thought that Bob was back home. But, then after reading
Stewie's post, I thought that perhaps Bob was utilizing Bin Laden's network
of tunnels and caves in "Afghanistan" to evade Stewie's "Dream Team" of
lawyers.
