Harpercon Junction — Another Thing For Harpercons To Blame on Quebec

By ck, on August 12th, 2010

Just came back from Montreal Simon’s post, Stephen Harper and Daddy Knows Best in response to Lawrence Martin’s latest effort regarding sweater vest Stevie and his backward puritanical wet dreams of how Canada should look in his view. I agree with Simon, this really isn’t one of Martin’s best efforts, in fact . . . → Read More: Harpercon Junction — Another Thing For Harpercons To Blame on Quebec

Texas Bus Driver Sues For Discrimination; Religious Reasons–For the Suzy ALLCAPSLOCK Files

By ck, on July 20th, 2010

I always knew the U.S. were known for two things; their litigiousness and their ever growing wingnuttiness. Particularly religious wingnuttiness. Just when you think the law suit or the religious belief doesn’t get more ridiculous, more stories proving us wrong come up.

Here is the doozy: a bus driver in Texas is suing . . . → Read More: Texas Bus Driver Sues For Discrimination; Religious Reasons–For the Suzy ALLCAPSLOCK Files

Vatican Sinks to New Misogynistic Low

By ck, on July 16th, 2010

There really aren’t that many words to say about this doozy.

Pope Ratzy has come out and said that pedophilia is a sin. No shit, Shirlock!! But here’s the kicker; in the world according to ol’ Ratzy, so is ordaining women, apparently, it’s right up there too;

The Earth Moved in Downtown Montreal Today

By ck, on June 23rd, 2010

It sure did.

We just had ourselves a little mid-afternoon adventure at work. Health & Safety let us know a few minutes ago we could go back into the building. I work in Downtown Montreal.

According to the news so far it was a small earthquake & it was felt from the south . . . → Read More: The Earth Moved in Downtown Montreal Today

Premier Charest, You’d Better Appeal! Let’s Have Something Go Right In This Mandate

By ck, on June 22nd, 2010

Up until a few years ago, when the schools switched from religious school boards to the secular linguistic school boards, parents had a choice of three classes they could enroll their kids into: the Protestant Religion, the Catholic Religion or a class simply called Moral instruction; the latter was more secular and appealed . . . → Read More: Premier Charest, You’d Better Appeal!

Overpriced G20 Summit; In Addition to Closed City of Toronto; Check out the Theocratic Theme!

By ck, on June 4th, 2010

I’m still not sure whether or not to take this seriously as this was Rick Mercer’s tweet yesterday. After an obscene amount of money spent for this hootenanny, in addition to closing down Toronto, the domain name for the G20 site is owned by…none other than Charles McVety the king of the Canadian . . . → Read More: Overpriced G20 Summit; In Addition to Closed City of Toronto; Check out the Theocratic Theme!

CJAD, You Done it Again! Bias Done Irresponsibly…Again!!

By ck, on June 3rd, 2010

I had meant to blog about CJAD’s abysmal coverage on some of the shows regarding the tragedy on the flotilla, however, I wanted to check more out on Professor Troy, who provided commentary for Tommy on Tuesday, June 1 and for Andrew Carter’s morning show yesterday, which sounded even more wingnutty than the . . . → Read More: CJAD, You Done it Again!

And He Was Smart Enough To Actually Pass the Bar???

By ck, on May 30th, 2010

I’m really getting less and less impressed with things like doctorates, medical degrees and now, this. Just when we think Ezzy just can’t get more paranoid or stupid, he outdoes himself:

…so did Gilles Duceppe of the xenophobic Bloc Quebecois, the party that gave us Jacques Parizeau and his “money and the ethnic . . . → Read More: And He Was Smart Enough To Actually Pass the Bar???

They’re All That Evil–

By ck, on May 26th, 2010

From Dave at The Galloping Beaver:

Dimitri Soudas

is a coward.

He is a chickenshit, cowering piece of quivering liver. He cries for his mother when things don’t go his way.

He is a conservative.

He let’s other people fight his battles.

Moments Like These Make Me Proud To Be a Quebecer–A Few Jabs From Our Side

By ck, on May 19th, 2010

Thanks Dammit Janet for bringing it up.

Bitter political rivals: Separatists v Federalists; scandals, and constant disagreements over language issues, but what warmed my heart today was every MNA got together and in a vote of 109- 0, adopted a pro-choice motion. Imagine that in Catholic Quebec; home of Cardinal Ouellette with foot . . . → Read More: Moments Like These Make Me Proud To Be a Quebecer–A Few Jabs From Our Side

Cover-ups, Abuses, Denials and Insults Aren’t Going to Draw More to The Catholic Church, Right Babs?

By ck, on May 18th, 2010

When the scandals broke out yet again about priests sexually abusing childen and subsequent cover ups by Catholic Church officials, my mother mused, wondering if my maternal grandmother were still alive, what would she have thought of those scandals? How would she have handled them? I never answered, that is, until now.

Read and weep here folks, to believe it is to read it. Yes, Lorrie is praising this group of Socon Evangelical ministers for helping the community of Jane-Finch in Toronto.

Sarah & Steve: The Tammy-Faye & Jim Baker of Politics

By ck, on May 11th, 2010

Well, Sarah Palin wants the U.S. to go back to rules based on the 10 commandments. No surprise there. But I have a question: for her group, the bible is considered to be too liberal; to the point of Conservapedia founder, Andy Schlafly has taken it upon himself to rewrite it, to take . . . → Read More: Sarah & Steve: The Tammy-Faye & Jim Baker of Politics

Happy Mother’s Day and of Course, The 50th Anniversary of The Pill; A Day to Remind us we Have Another Struggle Pending

By ck, on May 9th, 2010

What a journey it has been! JJ best summarizes how fitting for both to fall on the same day, as she points out, motherhood should be a choice. A day like today should also remind that whatever reproductive rights we do have in Canada today was due to a lot of noise, certainly . . . → Read More: Happy Mother’s Day and of Course, The 50th Anniversary of The Pill; A Day to Remind us we Have Another Struggle Pending

Tommy and Dr Roy Would Like Us All to Know That All Advocacy groups, Think Tanks Should Lose Government Funding

By ck, on May 5th, 2010

Yes, CJADs Tommy Schnurmacher ranted about this in his segment, vehemently defending the recent cuts to those 14 groups. We all must keep in mind though, that like any good Harpercon cheerleader, Tommy is not only a zionist but a pro-lifer and a wanker who suffers from Liberal Derangement syndrome as well.

A Harpercon Senator Loses it and Uses dah F Word

By ck, on May 3rd, 2010

‘Shut the f— up’ about abortion, says Harpercon senator Nancy Ruth to International aid groups. Oh, you old biddy, just go ‘head, ya know ya wanna: say it: FUCK!!

I was looking for further news about Jean Charest and the latest scandals and or polls and whether or not he’s going to resign sooner rather than later. There will be some kind of Quebec Liberal Party conference in St-Hyacinthe (still researching that, so not really sure of the exact nature of meeting) . . . → Read More: As Usual, the Fascination With Quebec’s So-Called Bigotry is Fascinating to Many it Would Seem

The World’s Latest Dumbest Christian…And the Award Goes to…

By ck, on April 5th, 2010

Denyse O’Leary, that’s who. (Where does Canadian Cynic find these idiots?) At least, according to many including some bloggers from Austin, Texas; the bible belt of America. Go figure. They just relinquished that prize from Ray Comfort: you remember him? Kirk Cameron’s ‘comfy’ friend?

First, CC brings attention to this masterpiece of O’Leary’s.

Just a Question…Can Somebody Answer a Question Regarding a Double Standard?

By ck, on April 5th, 2010

I have noticed folks, particularly the socon crowds like Jojo and folks like Suzy ALLCAPSLOCK would seem to go so far as to keep the child abuse scandals covered up behind the walls of the Catholic Church.

It is to them I ask this question: Would you be so forgiving or willing to . . . → Read More: Just a Question…Can Somebody Answer a Question Regarding a Double Standard?
