Although I'm sure McBush will do his share of waffling as well....they are politicians.

BTW, the waffles Obama was eating in the picture are very good. That diner is about a mile from my house and has great food.
The Glider Diner, I know it well and have eaten there numerous times on my trips "up da 81"! The food and service are something to write home about in these days of chain (cookie cutter!) restaurants which I detest with a passion!

Ahh..., it's "free trade" where Canada and Mexico are concerned! Sorry, I can't "badmouth" Canada and Mexico as they send the US that very precious commodity called "Black Gold"!

You'll need to come to Scranton PA to experience their cuisine, unless the Glider Diner can ship you a couple of dozen waffles freeze packed!

Yes, actually that seems right, and I don't know that it necessarily goes against the correction the CBC issued.
