Frodo has Failed. George has the Ring

The title was on a protest poster in Halifax today.

Apparently his first entry into Canada in 4 years included a trip to Halifax so he could say Terrorism a few more times on TV and also thank the people of Halifax for their help during the poorly-planned closure of all American airports on 2001-09-11.

Why is he finally going to Canada, and why are all his advisors quitting? Coincidence? If this was a bad decision, will the advisors who suggested it already have left his employ?

Now, we know that America - which has about 1/3 the world's population and 1/2 the world's lawyers - is a bit litigious. In fact, a handful of the last few Presidents have been impeached or have nearly been impeached. I think this president (and his father) are unique in that they're the only ones anyone wants to arrest for war crimes and crimes against humanity.
