pretty sure the american spending-on-credit and living at the end of their means had something to do with it...

still nice having the dollar close to buy stuff from the states...unless we start a buy-canadian policy....

Good thing for our exports though.

And picking up some 222s because they were the only otc painkillers worth a damn back then. :cool:

Edit: And butter tarts!!! The financial clout you'd have if you unleashed those on an unsuspecting world. :)

He HAS to apologise in every country he visits, just to convince the rest of the world that Dubya is indeed gone, and that he is not there to threaten their sovereignty. Like it or not, most of the problems faced by the US has to do with the previous 8 years, not the last 8 months.
