But there are so many in the party that I doubt it will work. For unless one candidate has a huge lead over the others, sooner or later he or she will have to go on bended knee and ask the social conservatives for their support. And promise to give them at least some of what they are demanding, or watch them stay at home on Election Day.

Which is of course the reason Scheer appointed her. As for the $300,000 entry fee it's clearly designed to keep out anyone who doesn't have the support of powerful Con bagmen, but is keeping so many out they could hold their convention in a telephone booth. I'm not sure what exactly is happening behind the curtain, but I look forward to finding out....Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-63834343828246056632020-02-05T10:58:52.679-05:002020-02-05T10:58:52.679-05:00Hi Jackie....I haven't taken the time to study...Hi Jackie....I haven't taken the time to study the "Fairness Doctrine" recommendations. I'm still recovering from the shock of seeing the Liberals trying to save their enemies in the Con media. But I'm pretty sure that Dumbo will bomb in Quebec for more than his poor language skills. And by posing as a Red Tory, which he definitely is not, could do real damage to the Cons all over the country....Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-61465604487696043342020-02-05T09:29:42.773-05:002020-02-05T09:29:42.773-05:00I am sure the holy crowd must be having nightmares...I am sure the holy crowd must be having nightmares over MacKay sleeping with the enemy.

He was the MoJAG who appointed the nasty rape apologist from apartheid South Africa whose disgusting comments inspired that bill in the first place. Liberals wanting dirt on Pete don't really have to dig much deeper than his own Wikipedia page. Figures his latest photo op was at Pierre Trudeau International (where he still can't speak French) since Chopper has more baggage than an airline terminal. Gonna be a long six months but Pete keeps giving Justin so many greatest-hits records to dust off that Justin must think he inherited the fortune of Columbia House.Jackie Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05221859743498420491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-91230625844313686362020-02-04T13:01:30.562-05:002020-02-04T13:01:30.562-05:00Can't wait to read your post on Beyak !Can't wait to read your post on Beyak !Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02310958566557370366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-23340758985466175692020-02-04T10:24:05.481-05:002020-02-04T10:24:05.481-05:00"So Scheer will still be out there for anothe..."So Scheer will still be out there for another five months, reminding most Canadians why they didn't vote for him and his ugly Cons."<br /><br />How stupid is that, Simon? Trotting Smirky McDimplyDouche out into the HoC to regurgitate his usual vomit onto us Canadians, who by the way have had our fill of his bile. The epitome of a failure calling JT a failure would be laughable if it wasn't so pathetic.<br />The ridiculous 300k entry fee the Cons are demanding is a litmus test as to who has the backing of the deep corporate pockets the Cons so desperately need. It's all about the money. I doubt she will be backed up by those deep pockets but I do hope the mare of Calgary, Michelle Rempel enters the race because you can guarantee that Pete the misogynist will let his foul mouth get him into trouble by exposing his disdain for women. So, on that note I say c'mon Michelle, giddy up go! Time to give potato Pete a good swift kick in his old bag...of tricks.<br />JDAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-66345504850378348732020-02-03T19:15:00.235-05:002020-02-03T19:15:00.235-05:00I just saw over at 338 Canada a new Léger poll sug...I just saw over at 338 Canada a new Léger poll suggesting that if Dumbo's language skills don't improve, he could end up leading the Cons to an apocalyptic crash of 24% and gift the Liberals with close to 200 seats. If that happens, he could end up com-Pete-ing for third or even fourth place with the Bloc and NDP. Taube might be onto something: when was the last time the Conservatives were reduced to a rump and the Bloc ended up as official opposition to a Liberal majority? Oh, right, 1993 with Kim Campbell coronated to lead the party that Pete and Steve later killed!<br /><br />This is why I hope the Liberals tell the Cons to get stuffed, and go ahead anyway with those CRTC "Fairness Doctrine" recommendations that Scheer and Rempel were squawking about. It's about time the media faced some accountability for how they've run interference for these atrocious Con candidates for far too long. The media is going to try and make a stud out of a spud and it's up to us not to let them. The potato prince needs to get French fried in the next election, and walk home to his old man's farm like a sad border collie with his tail between his legs!Jackie Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05221859743498420491noreply@blogger.com
