I got a bootleg dvd of Santana in Portugal 2006 (aired on Euro TV) in front of a crowd of 40,000. Carlos said GW Bush is the Devil and dedicated "you got to change our evil ways" to him. The crowd went wild. :cool:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('jasonraymondson', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('mattduke', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('deMolay', 'P')retty damn cheeky considering Neil Young is a Canadian.

It's just one big north American community.

Is there really any difference between Canada and the us.

Hmm, let me think..........
Order some pot seeds online.
Grow some pot in your home, maybe 4 plants. Let your buddies know.
Carry some of it around with you, maybe keep it in your car. Share some of it with your buddies.
Smoke it outside (not in public just in your yard) at your house or at your buddies house.
I guarantee after you do all that, you'll realize Canada and the U.S. are not the same.
Cheers.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('jasonraymondson', 'I')s there really any difference between Canada and the us. In my opinion we are fairly well the same country anyway. We have so many mutual agreements for just about everything, that we might as well join together to create the north American union. I just want to leave out Mexico. Preferably nuke Mexico

80% of canadians (with the noted exception of Alberta) want nothing to do with becoming american. YOu may want us be we want nothing to do with your culture, we have our own thanks.

I strongly doubt that AMERICAN's want Canada to join the Union. It is the politicians that think this is a good idea :-)

Definition of "Impeach"

Unread postby Stratovarius » Sun 02 Mar 2008, 14:30:49

I'm pretty sure at least half the people using the word "impeach" isn't using it correctly. Doesn't it mean "bring to trial for accusations of crimes" or something and not "take out of office"?

You are correct it means to accuse and bring the offical to trial. You must impeach them first and then through due process they will either be aquitted or thrown out of office.

It is equivalent to a grand jury bringing an indictment in a criminal matter. The House of Representatives serves as the grand jury and the Senate then serves as the trial court.

It's sort of an oxymoronic term which means to bring charges against a politician for committing crimes, as if they had any other function in life.

It's more amazing that BEFORE Nancy we allowed this to happen.

It looks like Pelosi is going to get away with it.

Solely because of her, the democratic Congress and the American people will never even be able to look at the evidence for impeachment, much less be allowed an opportunity to vote for impeachment.

House Sends Bush Impeachment Bill To Panel
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')he U.S. House kicked an attempt to impeach President George Bush into legislative limbo Wednesday when members sent it to a committee.
The House voted 251-166 to ship the impeachment resolution introduced by Rep. Dennis Kucinich, D-Ohio, to the Judiciary Committee, which allows the Democratic leadership to ignore the measure indefinitely, CNN reported.
However, Kucinich said his bill will be back in 30 days if the Judiciary Committee doesn't act on it, The Hill reported.
