I know... I'm watching the video and I'm saying to myself I know that anchor. Freaky.

Holy crap! It's former CNN anchor Bobbie Batista! And I spotted reporter Brian Todd in the scanning machine. What is this world coming to when CNN personalities are working for the Onion?

Howdy!

It's a good thing we're not Czech, imagine the reaction that this would have caused...

All Canadian soldiers should be considered our heroes also, no matter what. They are the grunts that take on the work of idiot politicians. The soldiers are used in pissing contests, which is really f@&#ing idiotic. We, as Canadian citizens have to fully, not blindly, but fully support all our individual soldiers. Now it is up to all of us, in this "democratic" society to get them all back home. Enough of our kids are being killed for other people's egos. The problem is that the majority of our politicians know nothing about diplomacy and feel they are men only by using force. All they are constantly doing is pulling out the measuring sticks to measure their dicks, only to blame the manufacturer of the ruler.

"ink will be spilled"

I spilled ink on this story before it hit big, as I think people like this need to be exposed and ridiculed for what they are.

No joke.

It's mostly because in America every soldier, no matter what, is an instant hero. You can't criticize the war without the conservatives throwing your lack of respect for the soldiers' sacrifice in your face. But when it comes to Canadians... who gives a shit right? I think this goes to show the rank hypocrisy of Conservative the news network. It's not without irony that a conservative is yanking them for an apology.
