Email from an ashamed Canadian

By letter to the editor

Please ensure that as many people in the great country of the United States sees this. [Broken link now fixed]

"I assume John McCain chose Sarah Palin as his vice-presidential partner in a fit of pique because the Republican money men refused to let him have the stuffed male shirt he really wanted. She added nothing to the ticket that the Republicans didn't already have sewn up, the white trash vote, the demographic that sullies America's name inside and outside its borders yet has such a curious appeal for the right."

The fact that this so called feminist is allowed to spew her vitriolic garbage makes me ashamed to call myself a Canadian. The great tragedy is that the CBC is publicly funded to the tune of 1 billion dollars per annum. There's nothing quite like being extorted to promote the publishing of this type of filth.
