Mayor Fordzilla Finally Slithers Outta His Hole, But Does Anyone Buy His Denial?

Tweet

Well, boys ‘n’ girls, after 8 days of playing cat and mouse with the media and pretty well the world at large, Fordzilla crawls out and denies the crack smoking allegations.

“I do not use crack cocaine,” Ford told a jam-packed news conference at Toronto City Hall. “Nor am I an addict of . . . → Read More: Mayor Fordzilla Finally Slithers Outta His Hole, But Does Anyone Buy His Denial?

Any Bets As To What Happens Next For Stevie?

Tweet

After that twitter storm of #PMHarperMustResign, I found a few interesting tweets. Got me thinking. We already knew that Stevie Spiteful was planning to shut the place down early and prorogue and return in the Fall with a brand spanking new cabinet with fresh faces and a Throne speech even before the shit . . . → Read More: Any Bets As To What Happens Next For Stevie?

A Few Questions Regarding Senate Gate, Some Thoughts and Why Is All Excused if You’re a Conservative?

Tweet

Well, boys ‘n’ girls, it appears that Stevie has had a bad week. What does Stevie do when the going gets tough? He either runs and locks himself into the nearest toilet available or skips town.

Senategate has proven to be no different. When revelations surfaced regarding Porky Puffy Duffy’s 90 grand “gift” . . . → Read More: A Few Questions Regarding Senate Gate, Some Thoughts and Why Is All Excused if You’re a Conservative?

A Few Questions About Fordzilla and his Alleged “Crackscapades”

Tweet

 

 

I was just on Facebook where someone who can be described as progressive vehemently defending Mayor Boss Hogg and basically trashing the Toronto Star. In fact, so vehemently, I was wondering if this individual has changed her political stripes.  That whole innocent until proven guilty thing. It’s how it should . . . → Read More: A Few Questions About Fordzilla and his Alleged “Crackscapades”

Oh Bob Fife, Are You Suggesting That You Get Paid Less Than Your CBC Counterparts?

Tweet

That is the question @YukonGale asked on Twitter tonight during tonight’s episode of Power Play on the boob tube this fine evening.  I watched it too.  For those who did not watch, Don Martin asked both journalists (Toronto Star’s Tim Harper and of course, Bob Fife, CTV’s Ottawa bureau chief) he had on . . . → Read More: Oh Bob Fife, Are You Suggesting That You Get Paid Less Than Your CBC Counterparts?

To Those Knocking Teaching as not Real Work Experience; You Must Not Really Value Your Children

Tweet

Boys ‘n’ girls, this is a rant that is long overdue.  I’ve seen the righty trolls bitch about teachers being paid too much or they’re being greedy every time there is a labour dispute as it happened in Ontario recently.  They bitch that teachers don’t really work all that hard and they have . . . → Read More: To Those Knocking Teaching as not Real Work Experience; You Must Not Really Value Your Children

Ya Know How Media Types and Pundits Like to Say Justin Trudeau is Too Inexperienced to Lead? Well, Just a Moment…

Tweet

Justin Trudeau may not be my first choice for Liberal leader, but I have to say, watching that conservative media all go in a tizzy over Justin’s lack of experience is really rich. I guess Petey Penashue trying to explain his job, badly, slipped under the radar. It won’t slip under our radar. . . . → Read More: Ya Know How Media Types and Pundits Like to Say Justin Trudeau is Too Inexperienced to Lead? Well, Just a Moment…

Why I’m Embarrassed to be Canadian…Again! Tom Flanagan Edition

Tweet

I was on Twitter earlier this evening and some of the tweets quite frankly made my blood run cold.  It seemed that quite a few out there were actually minimizing ol’ Tommy Flanagan’s musings about Child pornography.  Flanagan’s not evil–only trying to be controversial, some say. Others clearly too stupid to understand the . . . → Read More: Why I’m Embarrassed to be Canadian…Again! Tom Flanagan Edition

Ol’ Tommy Flanagan Appears to Be ‘With the Child Pornographers’ Go Tell ol’ Vic Now

Tweet

Wow! Now boys ‘n’ girls, let’s go #tellviceverything about his boss’s former mentor, ol’ Tommy Flanagan. Yes, Vic, you wanna know someone who seems to be ”with the child pornographers”, you don’t have to look too far, it would appear.

Ol’ Tommy may not be part of the Harpercons anymore, but he was Stevie’s . . . → Read More: Ol’ Tommy Flanagan Appears to Be ‘With the Child Pornographers’ Go Tell ol’ Vic Now

Is the National Post working in tandem with Sun News?

Tweet

I can’t help but notice that National Post’s Jonathan Kay has been trumpeting Sun News Network and Ezra Levant lately. Which seems odd in that Kay works for Sun Media’s primary competitor, Postmedia.

It’s not just the free praise and publicity that Kay has showered on Levant and co. It’s most likely a . . . → Read More: Is the National Post working in tandem with Sun News?

The World is Watching

Tweet I’m getting tired of the racism displayed for all the world to see right now. I thought we were so much better as a collective society. I was wrong.  It’s not just the right-wing extremists.  It’s looking to me like somewhere around half of all Canadians are completely unaware of how our country . . . → Read More: The World is Watching

Did Chrissie Blatchy Blatchford Just Liken Chief Theresa Spence to a Terrorist?

Tweet

Boys ‘n’ girls, it sure looks that way.

It is tempting to see the action as one of intimidation, if not terrorism: She is, after all, holding the state hostage to vaguely articulated demands.

I guess we shouldn’t be surprised though. I mean, her hatred of all folks and things Aboriginal is quite . . . → Read More: Did Chrissie Blatchy Blatchford Just Liken Chief Theresa Spence to a Terrorist?

While US gun nuts petition to deport Piers Morgan, Brits petition to “Keep Piers Morgan in the USA”

Tweet

Like a lot of progressives and centrists, I’ve found the whole petition to deport CNN‘s insufferable Piers Morgan to be a laughable if not preposterous cause, even for the right wing. Even funnier though is the effort of British folks to keep Morgan in the USA. While the former petition has reached 70K signatures over the last . . . → Read More: While US gun nuts petition to deport Piers Morgan, Brits petition to “Keep Piers Morgan in the USA”

We Don’t Need Gun Control! We Need Prayer!

Tweet

Yesterday, yet another school shooting. This time, an elementary school in Connecticut where 20 children and 6 adults were shot dead by an AK 47 no less. The gun apparently belonged to his mother, whom he also shot and killed.  He turned the gun on himself .

Tea-Baggin’ Racists Once Again Prove to be Historically Challenged

Tweet

Today is the 57th anniversary of that fateful day Rosa Parks defiantly refused to give up her seat on a city bus.  The White House tweets a pic of President Obama sitting on that bus to commemorate the event.

Righties like the clinically insane Michelle Malkin and her . . . → Read More: Tea-Baggin’ Racists Once Again Prove to be Historically Challenged

Oh, Ritzy Ritz! You Got Some ‘Splainin’ to do!

Quelle Surprise!

It appears that CFIA inspectors were ordered to turn a blind eye on carcass inspections.

Read and weep, boys ‘n’ girls.

Ok, Stevie, When the Clinically Insane Pammy Geller Sings Your Praises…

Tweet

It’s officially, Canada has become more of an embarrassment than even tea-baggin’ US of A.

Read and weep, boys ‘n’ girls. Watch her gush and crush over Stevie Spiteful, if you have a strong stomach.

How low have we sunk?

The Ballad of Joan Crockatt

Tweet

Like some long-lost remnant from a different era, Joan Crockatt channels many of the right-wing talking points favourited by archaic American tea party candidates who lost so badly on November 6. However, what was lost in the USA is still popular in much of Alberta, especially in Calgary . . . → Read More: The Ballad of Joan Crockatt

Telling. Fox News asks of NBC’s Sandy telethon: “How is NBC going to control what people say?”

Tweet

Fox News is aghast that NBC will be broadcasting a benefit concert for the victims of Sandy. Why would that be? Because NBC is the pawn of Obama and all the acts (Springsteen, Bon Jovi, Aguilera, Sting, Joel) are flaming liberals. That’s why. Plus…

”Where are the conservative performers?”

Number one, numbnuts: . . . → Read More: Telling. Fox News asks of NBC’s Sandy telethon: “How is NBC going to control what people say?”

Wacky pastor blames Hurricane Sandy on LGBT’s and anti-Israel sentiment

Tweet

Only the first of many more to come. Todd Akin and Richard Mourdock are not isolated cases. This kind of bigotry is endemic in the religious community, especially among evangelicals.

He continued: “Just last August, Hurricane Isaac hit New Orleans seven years later, on the exact day of Hurricane Katrina. Both hit . . . → Read More: Wacky pastor blames Hurricane Sandy on LGBT’s and anti-Israel sentiment
