Canada

For the past year or two I've said quite a few times that I'd move to Canada if it were just a bit further south. I think Chuqi would too given his most recent rant on the government, Bush, and the billions of laws broken. Like Chuqi, people saying "love it or leave it" simply don't get it - that this country should be about the freedom of speech, opinion, etc. to say "I don't like what you're doing right now."
Why can't we recall the Presidency like they recalled the governor in California (right or wrong)? If Americans could have foreseen the current state of affairs, by how much would Gore have won the last election?
Through the years I've tended to align myself with the Republican party pretty nicely - preservation of family values, that sort of thing - but nothing could push me further away from any party than Bush, Cheney, and Ashcroft.

The "Love it or Leave it" Mentality
Over at Teal Sunglasses there is a nice commentary on America -- love it or, um... which puts into words...

Yeah. But I'm not going to let the cold get to me. Vancouver is the "banana belt" of Canada, and that's good enough for me.
Besides, with global warming, Vancouver will be like the Bay Area in a few more years. 🙂

Not sure, just that he would have decisively won, not by some recount fiasco. I wanted Gore all along, and I do wonder how our foreign affairs would be with how Gore would have handled 9/11. I'm 95% sure Iraq would still be ruled by Hussein.
