The discussion centers on the sentiment expressed by some Americans who threatened to move to Canada if George W. Bush was re-elected, with participants debating the sincerity of these claims. Some argue that many who said they would leave were merely being dramatic and did not follow through, labeling them as "crybabies." Others counter that the media amplified this sentiment, highlighting increased traffic to Canadian immigration websites as evidence of genuine concern among liberals. The conversation also touches on the complexities of Canadian immigration, noting that successful applicants often possess strong educational backgrounds and financial stability. Participants express skepticism about whether Canada would welcome discontented Americans, emphasizing that immigration is not as simple as just moving across the border. The thread evolves into a broader debate about political loyalty, the nature of protest, and the perceived double standards in how different political groups are treated in discussions about national issues. Ultimately, the conversation reveals deep divisions in political beliefs and the emotional responses tied to them.

You obviously can't be arguing simantics here or hte proper placement of words because wow, I'll point to half of this particular part of the forum and ask why you haven't gone in and made sure every opinion was correct and fully factual.
You are making poisonous insinuations against a vast group of individuals AND CHOOSE NOT TO RETRACT THEM!
That is quite different from other posters, including myself.

You didn't retract it, you just ignored it and said that people should be allowed to say whatever they want. Of course, only conservatives can be attacked for what they say right? What a double standard...

How bout this, you go into every thread in the political forum and make sure no one said any "poisonous insinuations" and THEN i'll take mine back. This is only fair unless you pose some sort of double standards against a group of people...

I retracted it by deleting it. Stop lying and insinuating, Pengwuino.

CHILDREN! STOP!

How did this thread get so out of control in one hour?

Do I need to put bells around your necks so I can hear when you start butting heads?
