Annexed by America?

This is a response to the previous “Annexed by Canada” post. I think, MR, you have it backwards. Check out this USA image on a Fred Meyer branded Toasted Oats cereal box. America the Beautiful indeed. Look closely!

  1. Wow, that’s strange – “Old Glory” is flying high and proud over ALL of Canada!…… Maybe I did have it backwards!…… The U.S.of A. looks as if it is totally covered with water fissures, rampaging floods and desert….. Was that box printed in China?…..

  2. … keep looking …

  3. If you are thinking of New Brunswick, we annexed it. On to B.C.

  4. Yeah, Anon, Maine does look a little bloated and I don’t remember seeing the pigtail hanging down on the right side of Alaska either…. I think that is part of British Columbia ……eh?…. I’m now thinking that, not only was the box printed in China, but, they also hired some Chinese sixth grader to do the artwork, or, Jek is right, and our government has secretly begun to annex Canada, one piece at a time….. PD Bob looked this over very carefully, with one eye closed, then he grabbed his Walrus coat, a couple of maps, and a tape measure and was out the door in a flash, shouting something about being left out of the loop…. I suspect we’ll be hearing more on the subject from him…..

  5. Can you see Canada from Alaska?

  6. It depends on which map you use, Sunn….. There is no Canada according to the pic in the Post….. By the way, Jek, I thought Hawaii was in the United States?….. I don’t see it, unless, that’s it stuck on top of Maine…..

  7. That bloated area up there by Maine is the national debt it seems to be growing every time I look at the picture. Or maybe its the bankers bonuses.

  8. Nice job Anon. We also got part of Nova Scotia.

    This was probably done by a US citizen. A 2006 CNN study sez this about 18-24 state identification:

    Inside the United States, “half or fewer of young men and women 18-24 can identify the states of New York or Ohio on a map [50 percent and 43 percent, respectively],” the study said.

    Pathetic.

  9. MR: Hawaii was indeed on the box at the bottom–hugely out of proportion.

    BTW, the image on my last comment was from Globus Tours in case you’re interested in a tour of the “new America”.

  10. I wonder how many of those 18-24 year-olds can actually point out on a map the state that they live in…… I guess they could Google it if they really needed to know……

    We decide to go ultra-imperialist, and we decide to annex New Brunswick and Nova Scotia?! I don’t ^%$# think so. It should have been Baja or Cuba.

  12. jek, do you suppose this has something to do with the “New World Order”?

  13. Sunn: Nah, I just think someone was careless with Photoshop and doesn’t know much about the shape of the US. If it is the NWO, then this is an interesting place to start. Perhaps it is just a diversion.
