A very good example of this can be found in the Social Security Administration, and their refusal to grant social security numbers to people who are legally in this country but not allowed to work. Another problem is that almost everything you do here in the US ...

Mad Canuck: Saddam Execution Farce
http://madcanuck.blogspot.com/2006/12/saddam-execution-farce.html
The rantings of a Canadian guy. Sunday, December 31, 2006. The timing of the execution seemed preplanned to spite the Sunni population in Iraq. Eid al-Adha (the feast of the sacrifice) is one of two major feasts in the Muslim calendar. Sunnis celebrate Eid al-Adha this year starting December 30, while Shias celebrate it one day later. Thus, Saddam's execution was held on the first day of the Sunnis' Eid. Saddam retorted from the gallows: "Muqtada? Is this how you show your bravery as men? Finally, someon...

Mad Canuck: Lebanon, the Devil, and Idle Hands
http://madcanuck.blogspot.com/2007/05/lebanon-devil-and-idle-hands.html
The rantings of a Canadian guy. Tuesday, May 22, 2007. Lebanon, the Devil, and Idle Hands. There is an old saying, the devil makes work for idle hands. Over the past few days, this saying has been proving itself out yet again in Lebanon.

Mad Canuck: Don Imus - a racist, or just ignorant
http://madcanuck.blogspot.com/2007/04/don-imus-racist-or-just-stupid.html
The rantings of a Canadian guy. Tuesday, April 10, 2007. Don Imus - a racist, or just ignorant. Yesterday, the radio talk show host Don Imus got himself into quite a lot of trouble by describing the. Women’s basketball team as a group of nappy-headed hos . Al Sharpton (whose radio show Imus appeared on after the incident) demanded that he be fired, many others were similarly outraged, and NBC ended up suspending him for two weeks. Here is the transcript of the offending portion:. McGUIRK: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
