Today I am wearing a black shirt and a tie with Statue of Liberty
emblems on it.

I am ashamed of the Canadian Prime Minister's comparatively tepid
statements of solidarity with the United States.  I wish that he had
committed us as firmly as the leaders of Britain and Germany did
in their statements.

I am also ashamed that our Prime Minister spent last winter
scoffing and laughing off the calls from our Opposition party to take
terror links in Canada more seriously.

There is a letter to the editor in the National Post which reads in
part "In my 32 years as a professor at Simon Fraser University, I
repeatedly heard negative comments about the U.S. from my
colleagues -- both Marxist and pseudoMarxist -- and their
brainwashed students . . . The anti-American admirers of Marx,
Lenin, Stalin, Mao and Castro on Canadian campuses are not only
wrong.  They are an enemy within."

I not only agree with this statement.  I will post it on my office door
if need be in the coming weeks.

As Cheryl Richey states in her post (copied below), the United
States is the most generous, peace-loving, conscientious nation in
the world and in the history of the world.  The media and academia
faddists who carp against them have finally reached a point where
it would be prudent to SHUT UP.
