A Cockeyed Optimist

"It's great that people all across Canada and the US are coming out to show support for the war resisters," said Patrick Hart, a former sergeant in the US Army who came to Canada in 2005 with his family.

I have a message to Patrick Hart ....most Canadians couldn't care less about allowing deserters/cowards to stay in Canada and if the following are examples of support across the US then this is true in your home country.

.....
About 15 people, representing about 10 different organizations, participated in the one hour vigil.
.....About 50 American veterans of the Iraq War and other demonstrators gathered at the Canadian Embassy in Washington on Friday to demand that the Canadian government allow hundreds of U.S. resisters to the Iraq conflict to remain in Canada.
......the energetic group of 25 people handed out leaflets to lunchtime passersby, chanted, and marched in the near-freezing weather

let them stay: reports from u.s. actions

Courage To Resist has posted reports from the January 25 Day of Action. Americans delivered the message to Canadian consulates in eight cities: let US war resisters stay in Canada.

Good reports, photos and some audio here.

I lean to the right but I still have a heart and if I have a mission it is to respond to attacks on people not available to protect themselves and to point out the hypocrisy of the left at every opportunity.MY MAJOR GOAL IS HIGHLIGHT THE HYPOCRISY AND STUPIDITY OF THE LEFTISTS ON TORONTO CITY COUNCIL. Last word: In the final analysis this blog is a relief valve for my rants/raves.
