Woah! Woah! Back the Hell Up, Canada!

Some mouthy Canadian lady has come out with some nasty-ass things to say about Sarah Palin. The gall! The audacity! Where does this woman get off?

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation is reviewing complaints from both Americans and Canadians about a Web site columnist who recently described Sarah Palin's supporters as "white trash," compared the vice presidential candidate to a "porn actress" and called her daughter's boyfriend a "redneck" and "ratboy."

The incendiary column by Toronto-based writer Heather Mallick appeared on the CBC News site on Sept. 5, after the close of the Republican National Convention. On the same day, Britain's Guardian newspaper published another column by Mallick in which she trashed Palin's home state of Alaska as a "frontier state full of drunks and crazy people."

Now listen here, Heather. Sarah Palin is ours, goddamnit. We, as Americans, have earned the right to criticize and make fun of her. You can't take potshots at our candidate from a socialist state. Lay off, lady. She's ours.
