Second Iraq war hero wounded by police at Occypy Oakland. Right wing cheers.

By Jymn, on November 5th, 2011

If anything in the last few decades has scared the right wing out of its comfort zone of pretend patriotism it is the Occupy movement. Not the first black president, not the wars, not the uprisings in the Mideast, the failing economy, the loss of jobs, Michael Moore or George Soros. It is the Occupy . . . → Read More: Second Iraq war hero wounded by police at Occypy Oakland. Right wing cheers.

Occupy Montreal: a lesson in dealing with itinerants and homeless

By Jymn, on October 31st, 2011

As the Occupy movement rolls on, it must deal with those who come not so much to share in the communal building of a new form of alternative resistance to the ills of our financial and governmental system, but for shelter and food. Mixing in with determined occupiers are the itinerants and . . . → Read More: Occupy Montreal: a lesson in dealing with itinerants and homeless

Quebecor And RLQ’s Chou-Chou, Eric Duhaime Has Hit a New Low–Enough With The Canadian Arrogant Complacency!

By ck, on October 30th, 2011

Yes, that would be the same Eric Duhaime, the one who begged the feds, not once, but twice, to somehow intervene in the construction scandal woes in la Belle province, a problem that dates decades that needs systemic changes that not even the feds can touch. That same scandal that ol’ Chrissie Paradis . . . → Read More: Quebecor And RLQ’s Chou-Chou, Eric Duhaime Has Hit a New Low–Enough With The Canadian Arrogant Complacency!

By ck, on October 30th, 2011

Yes, boys ‘n’ girls, ol’ Stevie Spiteful has changed the names to Royal Canadian Air Force and Royal Canadian Navy, as well as issuing some edict to Canadian embassies world wide to start putting up pictures of her highness, Queen E, ASAP, or else, in an effort to take us backward.

Brigette DePape, iconic images, and Occupy

By Jymn, on October 28th, 2011

While establishment journalists muck around in muddy waders searching for a clue about the Occupy movement, condescending in their attitudes because they do not understand, I look back on perhaps a bit of the genesis of our Canadian versions of Occupy.

Brigette DePape.

When the Insane Slam The Insane: Santorum: “Aborted Babies” Wouldn’t Support Herman Cain, Who Would Do All to Make Abortion Illegal, But he’s just A-OK With Illegal abortions!

By ck, on October 28th, 2011

Oh those Crazy Rethuglicans! Gotta hand it to them, they’re nothing else, if not rip roaringly entertaining at times! It seems, they’re particularly nuttier when they fight each other in a primary. My co-blogger, Jymn, so explains Santorum’s rip roarious rantings. I should start paying attention, really!

Sorry if The Occupy Movement Puts a Kink In Your Plans, Mr. Mayor

By ck, on October 25th, 2011

Believe it or not, I’m not talking about Mayor Boss Hogg and sidekick Donut Dougy. No, I’m talking about Mayor Gregor Robertson of Vancouver. You see, boys ‘n’ girls, Mayor Robertson is starting to feel a little antsy these days, wondering when or how to end Occupy Vancouver.

The right’s furious, desperate attempts to discredit the Occupy movement with charges of anti-Semitism

By Jymn, on October 17th, 2011

Yesterday while I was following the #OccupyVancouver twitter feed, I noticed something strange happening. The hashtag was hijacked by unrelated, idiotic counter arguments to Occupy (not necessarily those belonging to Occupy Vancouver) signs showing up in photographs published on the internet and in the media.

The names of the tweeters and retweeters were . . . → Read More: The right’s furious, desperate attempts to discredit the Occupy movement with charges of anti-Semitism

Canadian firm postpones kicking Occupy Wall Street out of park. Police beat jubilant protesters.

By Jymn, on October 14th, 2011

So it goes in OWS land. Not long after hearing that the Canadian company responsible for kicking out the protesters from Zuccotti Park had backed down, police resumed their indiscriminate head bashing of wayward protest members. At one point a motorcycle cop ran over a pedestrian.

Interesting to note how the media has . . . → Read More: Canadian firm postpones kicking Occupy Wall Street out of park. Police beat jubilant protesters.

Boys ‘n’ girls, let’s give this college senior a big hand here! No, really! They’re making it on their own without any help from anyone on very little! Or so it would appear…

Timmy Hudak Sinks To Another All Time Low And Goes All Chuckles McVety

By ck, on October 2nd, 2011

Yes, Boys ‘n’ girls, he really has. He’s gotten really disgusting! First, it appears he’s been distributing this hideous and grossly misleading pamphlet, seen below.

Ontarians, Are You Getting a Sense of Deja-Vu?

By ck, on October 2nd, 2011

It seems that Timmy Hudak is pulling a Stevie Spiteful. When in doubt, bring out the evul coalition bogey man!

Speaking at a Toronto hockey arena, Mr. Hudak repeatedly lumped the other two parties together and suggested any alliance would inevitably lead to higher taxes in the province. He said such a coalition . . . → Read More: Ontarians, Are You Getting a Sense of Deja-Vu?

Outasite! Supreme Court bludgeons Con ideology with reality.

By Jymn, on September 30th, 2011

One of the few benefits of not having any political power is that you get to sit back and watch the majority power fall all over its own ideology and arrogance.

Less than 40% of Canada voted for these guys. That’s not a mandate for anything other than doing . . . → Read More: Outasite! Supreme Court bludgeons Con ideology with reality.

Occupy Wall Street going mainstream?

By Jymn, on September 30th, 2011

Occupy Wall Street protests have garnered very little media attention, especially the television kind. Yes, there’s been the usual ’dirty fucking hippies’ smirking from the New York Times and the like, but nothing substantial. Most Americans, except those who work or live near Wall Street, have taken little notice. That’s about to change.

That Ubercon wet dream of Stevie Spiteful’s that he went all ga ga giddy over at Mayor Boss Hogg’s hootenanny last summer that was videotaped. Yanno, that video that the Cons seem to feverishly keep chasing their tails, trying to keep it off the intertoobz without much success.

Or 229 Euros for that matter?

Just when you think you’ve seen everything.
