“All of us, Republicans and Democrats, woke up this morning after the election and realized life goes on. Unless, of course, you’re a terrorist.”

Poor guy. He writes a wonderful spoof on Canada defending itself against the onslaught of digruntled lefties fleeing the Bush Regime (well worth checking out). Meanwhile the Candadian government is officially warning American refugees that it can be hard to become a Canadian citizen.
Canadian officials made clear on Wednesday that any U.S. citizens so fed up with Bush that they want to make a fresh start up north would have to stand in line like any other would-be immigrants — a wait that can take up to a year.

Britain’s most famous scientist, Stephen Hawking, condemned the U.S. led invasion of Iraq as a “war crime” and said Tuesday it was based on lies.
[…]
“The war was based on two lies,” said Hawking. “The first was we were in danger of weapons of mass destruction and the second was that Iraq was somehow to blame for Sept. 11.
It’s really sad to see someone fail to use his own strong intellect this way. Neither of those constituted the primary reasons for the invasion of Iraq that I was aware of. Hawking would never argue physics by mistating someone else’s premises so badly.
