Pair who played host on 9/11 don't want Bush's thanks

Canada National Post

HALIFAX -- A Halifax family that hosted Americans during the September 11 terrorist attacks say they don't want the thanks of United States President George W. Bush.

Bush is coming to the Nova Scotia capital to express his gratitude for the hospitality given to grounded travellers three years ago.

Archie Kaiser and his wife Anne Derrick put up a New Jersey family for several days.

But Derrick says she doesn't like the idea of her city being used as a "photo opportunity" for a world leader she says has "blood on his hands."

1. Good for them!

That's all I have to say. :thumbsup:

2. Way to go, Anne, eh

I really really really love Canadians...and Nova Scotians in particular.

I wonder if anyone will even tell Georgie about this?

3. Is it wrong to love an entire country?

Because I have fallen in love with Canada and her people.

4. Imagine if our DEM "leaders" spoke that kind of blunt truth.

But alas, they have not the courage to do so.

They are afraid Judy Woodruff & Chickenhawk Republicans will be "mean to them" if they speak the plain truth like normal folks do.

5. Hot Damn!

I like these Canadians more and more every day. They've got BRAINS and HEART. Wish the same could be said for our country across the board... LOL

6. i hope Bush hears/see this!!

7. Not surprising. I would have done the same.

And the worst thing is this woman will be insulted by the Bush sheeple, even though SHE was there to help out the 9/11 victims.

8. I hate it when a Black Church has a photo op with Bush

Grrrrrrrr.

[lateo]

9. They should have let him come...

And then have signs calling him a killer and a criminal all about the place.

10. Wish I had been born Canadian.

11. I wonder if any of the "journalists" in American media will cover this?

.

12. Screw journalist -how about a freaking Democrat echo the sentiment.

Since when do "journalists" speak for us anymore- sighhh-or Democrats for that matter?

Its a shame that Mr & Mrs Mom & Pop Canadian have more gumption than any of our so called Democrat "leaders"
