#6 "to immigrants who have fled from military barracks to escape the current war in Iraq"

Now I have no problem with canada wanting to celebrate Draft Dodgers, especially now that Carter has already given them all amnesty, but celibrating folks that volunteered for military service, took the money as long as they were safe, then deserted? Well that's another ball of wax, in my humble opinion. Shame on these fools.

#7 I've never forgiven Jimmy Carter for letting these bastards back into the country. A man who deserts his country in time of war and lets other men take his place in the line, lets other men run the risk, lets other men die in his place, has no country. For them there can be no forgiveness. They do not deserve the liberties and freedoms that other men bought with their blood. The ones that returned should have been prosecuted to the full extent of the law and thrown into the darkest hole in the federal prison system. Let them live out their miserable lives in Canada. If the Canadians like them, that's their prerogative. The kindest thing that can be done is to let them fade from the American public consciousness.

#8 As long as they keep their "monument" out of the U.S., I don't have a problem with it. Let the jerks idolize whomever they want.
