Go Home ...

Tell me something new! Where can this fool go without being greeted by protesters?

"Bush's trip here was the first official visit by a U.S. president in nearly 10 years and his meeting with Prime Minister Paul Martin was akin to a political dance; Bush wanted to avoid any missteps that could amplify anti-Americanism north of the U.S. border.

But his unpopularity in some Canadian quarters was unmistakable. Some of the several hundred protesters near the Parliament building were polite. 'Please leave,' read one sign along Bush's highly secured motorcade route. But others near where Bush and Martin met held placards that branded Bush an 'assassin.' A truck parked near the motorcade route was emblazoned with the phrase 'Bush is a war criminal.' Another placard simply commanded, 'Go Home ... ' and included an expletive."

Sorry Canadians, take my President ... please.
