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 apparent. Didn’t she write a book about that? Ah yes, Caledonia.
If someone else of the righty clinically insane tea-bagging slop went on a hunger strike to protest, say, universal health care or some fetus fetish blocking traffic daily protesting legalized abortion, I wonder if ol’ Clucking Chrissie would still liken them to terrorists? Probably not.
Funny how Blatchy was quick to imply something crooked where Chief Spence was concerned. However, when May Boss Hogg Fordzilla was found guilty of his conflict of interest charges in a court of law, she was quick, along with other righties, to cry out “Lefty Conspiracy!” In fact the more, Fordzilla misbehaves, the more she appears to show she has this strange crush on him.
Nor has she ever criticized her friends, the Harpercons, who by now, have made ADSCAM look like Romper Room.
“Vaguely articulated demands”? Only if you’re illiterate or willfully ignorant could you write anything so fucking stupid. The demands are all out there. It’s WHOSE fault if Christie Fucking Blatchford doesn’t bother to look them up and READ them?
The right seems to have mounted an all out character assassination campaign against Chief Theresa Spence. Colby Cosh (Mcleans) and John Iveson (Nazional Post) were all in all afternoon.
I refuse to dignify her column with a click. I’ll have to take your word for it. She has all the grace and humanity of Ezra LeRant.
With the passing of the Long Gun Registry, Harper needs fresh meat for his one issue voters. As this involves not only racism, bigotry and jealousy based largely on rampant ignorance, it has all the necessary ingredients to be a winner for the Chief Executive Officer from the Land of the Big Smoke.
Repost from Chris Hedges (Pulitzer Prize winner and former war correspondent for the New York Times) on Canada’s right-wing neocon Prime Minister Stephen Harper:
Harper is a poster child for corporate malfeasance and corporate power, just sort of dismantling everything that’s good about Canada. So he’s the kind of species that rises to political power and is utterly subservient to corporate interests at the expense of the citizenry.
Yeah, he’s a pretty venal figure.
