Just seems like a bad copy cat of the Colbert Report. At least he is blatently dumb when he talks like that. His version would have had pictures of babies sleeping dressed up in Canadian military outfits or something like that. I think if they had made it more obviously a joke it could have been funny.
how could it not be considered comedy when one of the corespondents giving his opinion is doug benson a comedian known for his chronic smoking see "super high me"
all they did was state the facts. sure, they might have embarrassed canada a little. its not like they lied. they do have a small military, canada is a ridiculous country, people do nap in canada, they do have mounties who ride horses and wear wonderful red jackets, they are up there where it is fridjed, and they do relie on the u.s.
that was insanely frustrating to watch, and im pretty sure that even if they were trying to be funny, they still believed what they were saying. idiots.
Canadian media can talk shit about Bush and our country, but when American media steps in and pokes a little fun all of you canadians get your panties in a wad. Its funny.
1. our military is small and underfunded but our personnel are exponentially better than most countries personnel.
2. exactly what is ridiculous about canada? our lack of idiocy?
3. people nap everywhere, we just don't nap with our shoes on.
4. i have literally never seen a mountie on horse or in a red jacket, except in cartoons. most of our mounties wear bulletproof jackets and navy blue uniforms, if not all of them, and they roll in unit cars.
5. it is not fucking frigid here. it snows in the winter, it boils in the summer.
6. the biggest supplier of energy to the U.S. right now is Canada. our economy relies heavily on our own natural resources, mostly because the U.S. has already used up all of its own.
7. you're an idiot.
i typed up a response almost identical to this and then didnt post it cause i was about to leave and didnt want to start an argument. but yeah honestly the guy whos post your quoting, you are an idiot.
watching that makes me ashamed of my country of residence. i had a hard time getting through the clip, are these people really that stupid and ignorant?
somebody please chime in and please tell me this is an SNL skit or something...
Oh come on, you all have to lighten up a bit. Sure it was stupid and really not all that funny, but you people need to stop feeling offended by it. For one thing, i know for sure at least 2 of those people are actually comedians.
and this same thing has been happening to americans for years, regardless of whether they are true or not, every country has stereotypes, just laugh at how dumb they actually are. No need to get all defensive and start putting down other countries because someone was poking fun at yours
why isnt there more soldiers in Iraq? If its not because of a lack of organization, a monetary sink hole or democrats getting in the way , why havent stability been reestablished in Iraq if the US military can outpopulate civilians 2:1?
