Why Brett Kavanaugh Was Not Believable



I didn't get to watch much of the U.S. Senate hearing where Christine Blasey Ford testified that Brett Kavanagh once sexually assaulted her.

And Kavanagh screamed that the assault never happened, and claimed that it was all a plot by the Democrats to destroy him.

But I didn't have to watch much of that ghastly spectacle to know who I believed.

Doug Ford And The Bigot Elephant In The Room



It's now a recurring nightmare. The hellish vision of Doug Ford swinging from the CN tower and bellowing like King Kong:

"I'm da Premier of Ontario!!!!" 

Now that the polls show him apparently heading for a gorilla of a majority. 

And as if that wasn't bad enough, then there's this other poll suggesting that men are mostly responsible for what would be an act of collective madness. 

Which I found even more disturbing.

For only that could explain a front page like this one...

Hog Trump Goes After The #MeToo Movement



We always knew that Donald Trump was a sexist pig, even before he became president.

A misogynist, a groper, a pervert.

Even the media knew that.



But his supporters didn't care, many of them being hogs themselves, and they voted for him anyway.

And now he's doubling down and going after the #MeToo movement.

Is This Why The Con Media Hates Justin Trudeau So Much?



As you know, I've often wondered why the Con media is so biased against Justin Trudeau, and hates him so much.

I've blamed that bias on shameless scribblers trying to please their corporate bosses, who are furious with Trudeau for raising their taxes.

I've wondered whether our dilapidated media are being secretly propped up by uber right-wing groups like the Fraser Institute or the Koch brothers.

But now I have a new theory to add to the mix, and in many ways it's the most horrifying.

Andrew Scheer and the New Reform Party



Andrew Scheer likes to describe himself as a new generation leader, but like everything else about him that claim couldn't be more fraudulent.

For instead of leading his Cons out of the darkness of the Harper years, he's taking them back to the cowboy days of the Reform Party.

And he just can't seem to do anything right.

Has Donald Trump Just Destroyed His Own Campaign?



We already knew that Donald Trump was a sexist hog and a grubby misogynist. 

We knew he called women pigs and dogs.

We knew he was a dirty old man.

But this should just about finish him off.

The Disgusting Con War On Women Continues



One of the worst things about about our fallen king Stephen Harper, was the way he treated women.

The very first thing he did when he came to power was order that the words "women's rights" be erased from thousands of government documents.

His wacko church instructed him that women should be submissive.

He treated even his own female cabinet ministers badly.

And some things it seems never change.

Donald Trump's Turbulent Day on the Campaign Trail



When Donald Trump boarded his massive private jet yesterday he must have been feeling pretty good. He was still leading the Republican race to the White House.

And police in North Carolina had decided NOT to charge him with inciting violence at one of his rallies. 

But then came the turbulence. And it was all down hill from then on.

Starting with this report on Fox News.

Donald Trump and the Disgusting Con War on Women



I already knew Donald Trump was a RepubliCon clown, and that every inch of him was poisonous.

I knew he hated Muslims and Mexicans, and anyone who dares stand up to that bully bigot.

But it still stuns me to see how much he hates women.

Are Rona Ambrose's Ghastly Cons Out of Control?



When Rona Ambrose was crowned temporary Queen of the Cons, and promised that her shell shocked MPs would set a "new tone" i.e. raise their behaviour out of the gutter, and stop acting like animals.

I remember wondering whether she was dumb or delusional, and whether she really believed she could do that in the snake pit of a party Stephen Harper created. 

And Jason Kenney now runs.

And sure enough she couldn't. She just couldn't CONTROL them.

The Incredible Sexist Idiocy of General Tom Lawson



I've never had much time for Gen. Tom Lawson, our country's top soldier.

I believe he has helped turn our military into Harper's Army. And has not done enough to fight this hideous problem.

The Canadian Armed Forces perpetuates a sexualized military culture that is hostile to women and gay members, and harassment and assault are often tolerated by senior officers, according to a report released Thursday.

But this is the absolute limit.

Why Jason Kenney Should Resign Immediately



It's now been two full days since this shocking report on sexual harassment and violence in the Canadian Armed Forces. 

The Canadian Armed Forces perpetuates a sexualized military culture that is hostile to women and gay members, and harassment and assault are often tolerated by senior officers, according to a report released Thursday. 

But still Jason Kenney, the Defence Minister, has yet to issue a single solitary statement, about the problem and what he expects the military to do about it.

So now I'd like to ask that grotesque chicken hawk which of these details does he NOT find offensive?

The Canadian Forces and the Shame of Harper's Army



Ever since he came to power Stephen Harper has been trying to militarize this country.

Trying to destroy our noble peacekeeping traditions, and turn our military into Harper's Army, with his hollow slogan:

STRONG. PROUD. FREE.

But as a new report makes clear the truth couldn't be more UGLY.

Another Good Reason Why Rex Murphy Should be Fired



You might think that after all that happened at the CBC this year, Rex Murphy might know when to press the mute button.

You might think that with all those horrible stories about violence against women, that nasty Con dwarf might exhibit a smidgen of human decency.

But no, he'd rather use his last National Post column of the year to dump all over the feminist movement.

The Scottish Referendum and the Patronizing NO Lady



With just three weeks to go before the independence referendum things are definitely heating up in Scotland.

Especially since the leader of the YES side was declared the winner of last Monday's TV debate.

And polls suggest the gap between the two sides is narrowing as the momentous decision approaches.

The Further Sexist Adventures of Peter Dumbo MacKay



Oh no. Call the Old Boys Club. Peter MacKay has made a complete fool out of himself. Again.

He just can't get sexism out of his system. 

Justice Minister Peter MacKay has raised eyebrows once again over what some consider old-fashioned and patronizing attitudes toward women.

And still has one message for men and one message for women:

"By the time many of you have arrived at the office in the morning, you’ve already changed diapers, packed lunches, run after school buses, dropped kids off at daycare, taken care of an aging loved one and maybe even thought about dinner."

And I have to be brutally honest eh? I'm starting to think that they don't call him Dumbo for nothing.

Krusty Blatchford and the City of Sissies





















And so it came to pass that the ghastly Con scribbler Krusty Blatchford was strolling trolling through the streets the other day, when she came across a group of young boys hugging each other. Farted loudly.

And did declare Toronto to be a City of Sissies.

I know men have feelings too. I just don’t need to know much more than that. On any list of The 25 Things Every Man And Boy Should Know How To Do, hugging is not one of them. Killing bugs is. Whacking bullies is. Kissing is. Farting on cue is. Making the sound of a train in a tunnel is. Shooting a puck is. Hugging is not.

And herself to be a bearded lady...

The Harper Porkers and the Swine Flu

When you hear the oinking and grunting of the Con porkers mocking Liberal M.P. Carolyn Bennett...



When you hear them laughing at the swine flu even as Canadians die.

When you read about how they are bullying women.

The sexist jeering and catcalling from the government bench is getting out of hand, opposition leaders charged during today’s Question Period.

NDP Leader Jack Layton, meanwhile, said the “abuse is growing hotter, it is growing more frequent and there is more bullying.” He said women, in particular, are being targeted.

When you remember how these Cons spent FIVE times as much promoting their Porky Action Plan than they did educating Canadians about H1N1. Trying to BUY themselves a majority with our money. Putting their hideous ideology before the health and safety of Canadians.

And how we're all paying for it now

With emergency rooms swamped with screaming children, panicky parents, and exhausted staff.

And how when these Cons are challenged they just laugh, howl like hyenas, and mock women members of Parliament.

Oh boy...you know when you think about all of the above you can only reach two conclusions eh?

One.... we REALLY need to defeat these Cons. Our lives may depend on it.

And two...oink oink.

They don't call them porkers for nothing....

Michael Coren: Women Shouldn't be Soldiers




















I don't usually care what the Jabbasaurus SoCon Michael Coren has to say about anything.

Because he's such a religious reactionary and disgusting homophobe he doesn't deserve to be listened to or read. And besides his plummy accent makes me want to scream. Or call him a (s)limey ARSE-hole.

But even by his Jabba blabber standards this is the limit.

So Canada sacrifices another victim on the altar of equality.

Last week a young girl dressed up as a soldier died in the increasingly futile and pointless war in Afghanistan....But what on earth was she doing in such a place and in such a job?

Because there are few if any women who have the skills required to serve as a front-line combat trooper.

Yes, yes, yes, I know it's fundamentally anti-Canadian to say this but I'd prefer to articulate the views of the silent majority than hide behind some modernist fetish that places more importance on the myth of absolute equality than the safety of a girl who should be laughing with college friends rather than fighting theocratic madmen.

Gawd. When the Jabbasaurus farted that one they must have had to clear the building.


But of course he would say that. Because the religion ... superstitious nonsense he believes in, was invented by hairy desert dwellers to keep women in their place. You know.... in the tent, with the goats, barefoot and pregnant.

And all this grotesquely sexist article amounts to is the most naked and disgusting defence of the patriarchy I think I've ever seen.

When in fact women in front-line positions have the same skills training and physical requirements as the men. I know a couple of female soldiers who could whup most guys' asses. And being able to serve and die for your country is an important measure of equality.

OK. I know.The Jabbasaurus is a monstrous idiot. Yabba Dabba Doo.

But what's their excuse?

Oh boy. These ridiculous old men still clinging to their dinosaur world. Where women are too PRETTY to fight and die. And daddy knows best. Will someone please tell them that the Stone Age is over ? And we're not going back.

In the meantime I'll cling to MY beliefs.

Trooper Karine Blais is a hero.













And a feminist one as well.

Some Blogging Tories are real idiots eh?

And Michael Coren is an ARSE-hole....
