Guest guest Posted May 25, 2005 Report Share Posted May 25, 2005 Alberta's new oil reserves are HUGE: Does this mean Bush will invade Canada next? By Jane Stillwater http://jpstillwater.blogspot.com When I opened up the San Francisco Chronicle on Sunday, these were the headlines: " Canadian oil sands -- vast reserves second only to Saudi Arabia.... " Then there was a graph. Apparently, Saudi Arabia has 259 billion barrels of oil in reserve, Canada has 180 billion barrels and Iraq only has 113 billion barrels. Shhhhh! Don't tell Dubya! He'll be invading Canada within the week and we all know what this means: Shock and Awe will be coming to Ottawa. British Columbia will soon have its own Abu Ghraib. Halliburton will get another 200 billion dollars in contracts, we will all learn to live in terror of infidel " maple-leaf-heads " and Americans will have to go without cheap prescription drugs. All too soon, resistance cells will be forming in Quebec while suicide bombers attack the U.S. green zone in Toronto. And Laura will soon be flying in to teach Nova Scotians how to read. **** The Chron article: http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2005/05/22/MNG46CMUPL60.DTL **** MORE corruption in politics: My daughter lost the prom queen election by ONE vote! Plus a buddy of the winner is going around telling everyone that the new prom queen's leukemia WAS in remission and she had only shaved her head to get the sympathy vote. I DEMAND A RECOUNT! **** To get a sample of what inspires Bush's foreign policy, check out this trailer from " The Road Warrior " . Especially pay attention to George's special role model, the Humongus dude. Here's a question for you: Do we really want the future of this planet to disintegrate into a mad brawl for oil? **** The first place that the Bush family invaded for oil was Texas! Had James Dean not discovered oil in the Lone Star state, the Bushes would have stayed in Connecticut where they belonged and Texas would now have a decent school system. **** From Time Magazine, January 20, 2003: " It is possible that Iraq will be to America what Afghanistan was to the USSR? The similarities are chilling. " -- Jane Stillwater **** From Tina and Gary: Scenes We'd Like to See: Nuremberg Redux! Photos from the next Nuremberg trials: (click here for full-size image.) **** From " Amy Doesn't Go to Africa " : This episode is written but not typed. Someone needs to find a publisher who will give poor sweet Mary Straitwell mstraitwell a big cash advance so she can get this freaking section TYPED. It involves lions and elephants and bush planes and adventures in doing laundry 1,000 miles from the nearest paved road. http://travelswithamy.blogspot.com/2005/05/amy-doesnt-go-to-africa-written-not.h\ tml **** I have become shocked and amazed lately at how bitter and cynical and mean my e-mails are becoming -- but ever since Bush, Rove, Rumsfeld and Cheney bombed several defenseless countries into rubble, failed to protect my country on 9-11, scalped our treasury and blatantly STOLE two national elections, I've just not been the same. I WANT to be a kind and loving and caring person but the example being set for me by America's " leaders " has precluded that from happening. My apologies. In defense of my country, I must fight fire with fire. Those people in the White House are NASTY. **** If you like getting my outside-the-box essays but your in-box is too full and you need a break, that's okay. Just e-mail me, say " Dear Jane " on the subject line and I will take you off my list. Thanks. And if you get more than one copy of this, blame it on my jankity old computer! **** " Imagine a world where EVERY child is wanted, nurtured, protected and loved: World Peace in one generation!
