You daresay alright, and you're clueless on that.Okay, so you're not from Canada, and you're not in America, so exactly what the hell are you worried about? Are the wetbacks sneaking across your border for gin and 222's?PaintMyHouse, you should call yourself "painting myself in a corner".
I am a Canadian by naturalization. You know, that is a legal procedure whereby an immigrant, after fulfilling the requirement of the host country becomes a citizen, thereof. I am sure there are similar procedures in the United States, but if I had to learn about America from the likes of you, I would forever remain as - WAIT! let's use your own word: CLUELESS - you.
Your claim that a person has to have been born in America to know how Americans think would disqualify such dunces as Albert Einstein or Toqueville, who, no doubt, fade in the light of your brilliance.
Now, as an immigrant, I had a choice of learning either English or French, or both. If I had been as smart as you claim to be, I would be fluent in both, but, knowing my limitations, I chose to learn English.
Whether I succeeded or not is not for me to decide, but the least I can and DO expect from immigrants (legal or otherwise) to have the decency of learning and speaking the language of the host country that (as in my case), welcomed you or in the case of your love subjects, tolerate you.
I give you credit that your ignorance about your own country is PERHAPS not as great as your stupendous ignorance about Canada.
Well, actually, I am IN Canada, I am a citizen of Canada, proud to be, and I daresay I know a Hell of a lot more about America than you do.
For those, like you, who are basically empty inside and the only slight trace of patriotism is that they desperately try to diminish the importance and significance of naturalization, being a legal immigrant is stealing from your perceived superiority, but, at the same time giving legitimacy to the illegals.
I concede, as a Canadian, I should be polite about America and Americans. I also concede that I should not call anyone derogatory names as you just have called those you allegedly speak for. You know, "wetbacks"?
I usually am, but you and the likes of you make me go off the rail from time to time.
Nevertheless, I appreciate the opportunity given to me on this board to sound off.
