Comments on: Guilty Until Proven Innocent–Trial By Tabloid–A Dangerous Precedent, ‘Cause We Canucks Are Just So Damned Pristine, Aren’t We? http://sistersagesmusings.ca/2010/08/29/guilty-until-proven-innocent-trial-by-tabloid-a-dangerous-precedent-cause-we-canucks-are-just-so-damned-pristine-arent-we/ Center-left blog from Canadians across the country and beyond Thu, 27 Jun 2013 09:45:28 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.2 By: ck http://sistersagesmusings.ca/2010/08/29/guilty-until-proven-innocent-trial-by-tabloid-a-dangerous-precedent-cause-we-canucks-are-just-so-damned-pristine-arent-we/comment-page-1/#comment-3558 ck Wed, 01 Sep 2010 00:02:47 +0000 http://sistersagesmusings.ca/?p=3326#comment-3558 JJ, don’t feel too bad; I’m gonna give you something to laugh at. My neurologist prescribed new medication a few months ago for my migraines, to take everyday to take the edge off; side effect? I suffer from CRAFT (Can’t Remember A Fuckin’ Thing), seriously, poor short term memory; need to leave email alerts and notes on my lotus agenda at work to remind me of tasks. Not to mention all the sticky notes all over the computer screen and desk. It’s fun! Hey, I still get my work done.

It’s probably my computer then, which I’m ready to throw out the window; Gawd, I hate windows vista!

I don’t know… and I can’t even remember what time I posted it now that another day has elapsed. But it was yesterday for sure. (I love getting old.)

It’s my little joke, but there is some truth to it: I have Balancing issues.

For me, nothing beats flip-flops in the summer and sneakers the rest of the year.

But yeah, I suppose shoes can be a non-partisan issue.

W00t! Foxxxy!

Well, Jymn, if you’re talking about Blathering Blatchford, Margaret Wente or Norman Spector, and yes, I do sometimes wonder about Jane Taber, then yes, we could well be talking about the diaper,

Who’s going to defend the innocent until proven guilty in Canada? Sun Media? Hell no. Canwest? Fuck off. National Post? Dream on. Globe and Mail? Depends (I’m not talking about the diaper, or am I?). Macleans? Only if Wells is around.

Unfortunately for public debate, the RightWing is only interested in their own circular reasoning circle jerks (I know what I know because the blog that posts my screed says I’m right)
There’s a dangerous trend in North America now where making angry complaints about the government is only okay if you’re conservative – anyone else are “terrorists” (‘specially if you’ve got brown skin)
We’ve ALL expressed an angry thought or two about government or politicians at some time or another, but if an RCMP agent overhears, and decides you might fit his idea of a subversive, the next thing you know, there’s a few faces around you at the bar or coffeeshop suggesting that “something needs to be done” and “I’ve got a friend who can supply us with…..”
