Is palin more of a threat to Obama than Mccain

[CFH]

There are issues that the US can't take a side on without pissing off large groups of people....Canada doesn't have this problem as they are Canada and are non-threatening.

Look at Iraq, I am sure there are a fair number of people who are happy to see Saddam gone....however that doesn't mean they are happy we are there.....if we were to leave today there would be a large group of people pissed off that we left them high and dry....if we stay then there's a large group of people pissed off that we won't leave. If we never went then there would be people waiting for something to happen to Saddam and seeing the US as the group to blame for that as we did put him in power.

So it's kind of complex...I wouldn't expect a Canadian to think about it that hard as you guys are like the Irish...loveable and harmless

Our indigenous population would disagree with that quite strongly, but as for international imperialism, you're right, that's not really our thing (minus Afghanistan) - you guys pretty much have that market cornered anyways - and considering the size and condition of our army, that's a good thing. We'd probably make the Italian's look like the Carthagians at this point.
