America - the great, is always being watched (usually on CNN!)and so we have been conditioned to form our opinions based on the media. Most of the people I talk to believe that the news media is "owned" by the government. The glamour and hype surrounding the applied wars is worthy of a large bowl of Orville's best and a Big Gulp of anything carbonated!<BR/>I'm just teasing of course...<BR/>In regards the Italian's opinion, well, in a more concise turn of phrase - if you are really fed up, vote OBAMA, if you dig the schtick<BR/>CLINTON or MCCAIN. <BR/>But, eo, what amazes me is how gullable our fellow man can be in regards - media. Atrocities, performed each and every day all over the world by each and every nation man to man, man to beast and man to earth are just not amplified the way the American activities are. I guess size has it's disadvantages too...the funny part is that we/you/us place ourselves under the mediascope and with morbid self examination, become exhilerated by our funked out findings. Weirdly tragic.<BR/>I think Canada is wonderful too. I have American friends and they are actually quite brilliant. I like the Italian, rise to the defense of the American people. As a whole, I find them lovely, and worthy of celebrating!<BR/>Yes, I love the old growth forests and crisp cool air in the spring and fall, and the ocean, full of wonder here on the coast.<BR/>Just want to say how much I'm enjoying reading your notes and thoughts - quite like the humour tucked in and around.Ceridiannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16799754159948438400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759676821721103017.post-65793757720811205612008-05-05T00:52:00.000-04:002008-05-05T00:52:00.000-04:00I do think that this time world opinion matters. ...I do think that this time world opinion matters. So I've written a brief post: http://sciencesense-eyesopen.blogspot.com/2008/05/obama-will-help-our-image-around-world.html.<BR/><BR/>Canada is a great country. I found your single payer healthcare system to be very high quality and very efficient. It's too bad that most Americans know little about it, eh? Keep that wilderness preserved, especially the coastal temperate rainforest.<BR/><BR/>As for the profile, yes, it was meant to be a bit oxymoronic.<BR/>-eoeyesopenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10419000920988102273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759676821721103017.post-80721195822557877252008-05-03T15:05:00.000-04:002008-05-03T15:05:00.000-04:00Positively skeptical?

Is that like moving forward in all directions?<BR/>You seem to have your feet well planted however and as a thinking American (no pun intended)you would have no choice other than B.Obama to throw an endorsement behind.<BR/>A serious twist now; as a Canadian, I feel that the next choice of leader for your country directly impacts our lives to the north. Forgive my crossborder peeking, but I must you see.Ceridiannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16799754159948438400noreply@blogger.com
