Blogging SupposiTory Iceman: “Peter Milliken The Partisan Liberal”

Tweet

Yes, boys ‘n’ girls,  in the world according to Iceman, there could only be one explanation for Speaker Milliken’s rulings. He’s a Liberal partisan!

I am not surprised by either ruling. At this point it was just about what I expected. Milliken said exactly what his party wanted him to say and he . . . → Read More: Blogging SupposiTory Iceman: “Peter Milliken The Partisan Liberal”

Speaker Rules Against Harpercons, But…

Tweet

There always seems to be a but in the Speaker’s rulings, doesn’t there?  Today appears to be no exception. I will get to that later.

Speaker Peter Milliken has spoken:

Speaker Peter Milliken has found the Conservatives in contempt of Parliament, handing powerful ammunition to opposition claims the Harper government’s autocratic behaviour represents . . . → Read More: Speaker Rules Against Harpercons, But…

Speaker Milliken To Step Down? Thought He Enjoyed The Job

Tweet

I read about this earlier today from a few blogging supposiTories.  A few commenters even venture that he could be the new Governor General to replace Michaelle Jean, but I find that highly unlikely as Steve will choose a hyperpartisan evangelical to do his bidding for him like his former mentor & boss, . . . → Read More: Speaker Milliken To Step Down?

Even if CC has sworn off blogging, at least for the immediate future, Ì think we only imagine what he would be thinking or what he would post today.

Harpocracy Taken Down a Notch!!

Tweet

This is more than happy news.  This is relief! Many of us, including your’s truly, were starting to lose faith in Speaker Milliken for all the time he took. Not to mention, we believed that he would never risk his career to vote against the Harpercon regime.

Now,  Milliken has just reminded all . . . → Read More: Harpocracy Taken Down a Notch!!

President Steve? King Stephen?

Tweet

I caught the pessimistic musings of Canadian Cynic this morning where  he sees Speaker Milliken as a failure for not having handed down his decision regarding the Afghan Detainee documents to parliament. He is probably right, unfortunately. He is not alone. On yesterday’s Question Period, both Craig Oliver and Jane Taber both agreed . . . → Read More: President Steve? King Stephen?

Blogging Tories: Be Careful What You Wish For! You Sure You Want a Totalitarian Regime?

Tweet

After reading comments from fools too idiotic blog like Mary T and Wilson as of late, as well as many columnists, pundits and of course, Blogging Tories, one has to wonder if they really know what they’re lobbying for: What they are attempting to force-feed Canadians these days?  To me and I’m sure . . . → Read More: Blogging Tories: Be Careful What You Wish For!
