Bush wanted to sweep his mistakes under the carpet.
This war mentality is disgusting!
I applaud President Obama for bringing this to light again. I saw the video of how Canada respects the caskets coming home. Cabo, you are not aware of any Canadian casualties??? Really??? Oh, it's that "it's all about me" mentality again. Well watch this video. We should be doing the same! Shame on all of you that criticize President Obama for caring.

Chels, I posted, "Canada did not join the coalition of the willing in Iraq. 40-50military personnel mostly pilots, flew combat missions with the US Air Force. I am not aware of any Canadian casualties."
"This does not diminish the loss of any Canadian lives in combat including Afghanistan. "
What are you talking about?
Did you not understand "I tried to explain to you the practical implications of adopting Canadian traditions given the above statistics. The facts seem to make the premise of your argument absurd at so many levels."
It is difficult to debate you when you contrive and manufacture "windmills" and distort statements of others to fit your argument.
