I've just learned that John Roberts works for CNN now. -Amit

Man, every time I see J.D. Roberts (yes, he will always be J.D. to Canadians of my generation) on the news I can't help but think: 'Enough with this middle east mumbo jumbo J.D., let's get to the new Triumph video.'-AJK

Today,

John_Roberts_(television_reporter) claimed that Sonny Bono's "Pammy's on a Bummer" is the worst song ever. He said this unprompted, though somewhat inspired by Betty Nguyen's description of her show, tomorrow {Saturday}, & Sunday, today being Friday the twenty-second, where this weekend they will list several of what cnn believes are the worst Christmas songs.

Thank You.

Naturalized U.S. citizens are only U.S. citizens under U.S. law

I think it's pretty much a foregone conclusion that when any naturalized citizen has gone through the naturalization oath and certification, as a matter of United States law, we are only U.S. citizens. I think that when, as Canadian-Americans, we choose to become naturalized U.S. citizens, make no mistake: we play for Team U.S.A.

I don't know what the "we" business has to do with the price of eggs in China, nor "Team" anything, etc. Ali Velshi is a naturalized Canadian citizen, a naturalized American citizen, as well as having a Kenyan trunk in the ground, and Indian roots (he'll call himself Canadian at the drop of a hat, if the context calls for it). Elon Musk is African, Canadian, and American. Some people are just all over the map, and there's no pinning them down somewhere to suit anyone's fancy. If there's any reference that Roberts has renounced Canadian citizenship that's the sort of documentation that is called for; let's have it.

As for the "foregone conclusion"... WUT. There is no such entailment:
