The Never-Ending Nonsense Of The Con Clown Rex Murphy

I haven't read or heard anything by Rex Murphy for so long, that I thought he was missing in action, or retired, or dead.

But no, the crusty old oil pimp is still going, still ranting and raving over at the National Post.

And he's just as ghastly as he ever was...

Why Is the CBC So Determined To Destroy Itself?

I got a chance to watch most of Power and Politics yesterday, and although I was reasonably impressed by its new host Vassy Kapelos, the editorial direction of the program itself was an absolute disaster. As usual.

Yet another example of either total incompetence and/or naked bias.

And one more example of why so many disappointed Canadians now call the CBC, the Conservative Broadcasting Corporation.

For why on earth would that panel debate whether Bill Morneau should apologize for calling Lisa Raitt a "neanderthal?"

When he never did. 

What Is the CBC's Con Board Hiding?

Well we know who they are, the members of the board of the Conservative Broadcasting Corporation.

And we know that one of them, Brian Mitchell, just left to run for President of the Harper Party. 

"I think the party needs me," Mitchell said. "The party needs my experience and my help and my loyalty."

But what we don't know is what the Harper Party's other loyal servants have been up to since the election.

The Ghomeshi Apology and the Shame of the CBC

And so it ends, for him. Jian Ghomeshi has apologized, and avoided another trial for sexual assault.

Jian Ghomeshi stood before an open court today and apologized for his "sexually inappropriate" behaviour against a former CBC employee who had accused him of sexual assault — a charge that was then dropped by the Crown attorney.

His apology to Kathryn Borel and the peace bond he signed meant there would be no second sexual assault trial, and ended the legal ordeal the former CBC radio host has faced since Toronto police laid sexual assault charges against him in 2014.

But if he got off lightly as far as I'm concerned, so did the CBC.

There's a Reason They Call It the Conservative Broadcasting Corporation

As you know, I frequently question the judgement of the hapless stooges who run the CBC.

I question how they let a shabby tea bagger and climate change denier like Rex Murphy act like the high priest of Big Oil on The National, their flagship news program.

Or for that matter, why on the day the Duffy verdict came down, with its scathing criticism of the Harper PMO, the National led its newscast with fifteen minutes on the death of Prince.

But then there's a reason they call it the Conservative Broadcasting Corporation. 

Rex Murphy's Obscene Tribute to Rob Ford

Well let nobody say I didn't warn you. I predicted that Rex Murphy would have something to say about his fellow demagogue, and millionaire Rob Ford.

And sure enough he did.

And the only thing I regret is that my warning wasn't strong enough.

For this diatribe couldn't be more obscene.

The Con Clown Rex Murphy's Ghastly Anti-Trudeau Campaign

Once upon a time I used to fly though the air like Peter Pan in search of the remote control, whenever the ghastly Rex Murphy popped up on my big TV.

In a desperate attempt to change the channel, before his oily fumes started pouring out of every orifice, and before that scary bulging eye started following me around the room.

But now I just sit there staring numbly at the screen and wondering: why is that Con teabagger on the CBC? Is this Canada or Trumpville?

And this is just the latest reason why I think he should be fired.
