Yeah, she full of something, but it isn't sense. It does start with an "s", though.

Some Canadians voluntarily signed up to fight with the US, but Canada DID NOT SEND TROOPS.
We stayed out of that war because it was stupid.

Canadian companies were involved in the Vietnam war in other ways but I didn't think the government had troops over there either. Your business guys gave us pretty good deals on ammo, napalm and Agent Orange.

Harboring American draft dodgers is not "staying out of the war".

Canada was clearly on the side of the NLF.
Again, for the illiterate.......Canada did not send troops, no matter how much Crazy Coulter insisted they did.

Again, let us focus on what Ann Coulter said. She is being a shock jock, and in this case, she has no proof to back up her statement. How is soccer not a real sport? That is the question to ask her.
