OMG. I see Great Klown Leader has set out to try to win over the YouTube generation.
And so far so bad. But how's that brave desperate attempt to make himself more popular going?
i gotta question,?? which u will never reply to, ... why the fuck do you lie stephen Harper??
My question to Stephen Harper : Are you gay???? THEN WHY THE FUCK DO YOU WANT TO CHANGE THE NATIONAL ANTHEM YOU FUCKING WHORE!
Who is this knob?
harper say my username on tv or else......i'll........i'll stop watching ur government ads..yeah......so u better do it moN!!!
Could i have free money and dorrito's please? DX
BORING.
Uh oh. Not too good. I guess I really should have warned Great Ugly; the new generation is NOT Conservative. And YouTube commenters are so...um...direct... they make me look like one of his admirers. *Shudder* But then he so richly deserves it. When will he ever learn that nerdy policy wonks with dictatorial tendencies are not kool? Fool. And should not be on YouTube...or pretend they had anything to do with our golden Olympics.
“And as we all know, the streets of our great country were alive with red and white on the night following that final goal by Sidney Crosby, because when Canadians do something great in the name of their country, their fellow citizens know how to wave the flag as well as anybody.”
Rah. Rah. Rah. Isn't that PATHETIC? All that's missing is a Timmy's donut. Gawd. I do believe that wretched phony would crawl up Jason Kenney's cavernous ass hole if it would get him the majority he craves sooooo much.
But at least now we know what happened to the golden puck.
The tale of the puck will not be told anytime soon. “We have our reasons for not giving out the story of how we got the puck,” Szemberg said. Hmmm....VERY suspicious. But who can blame them eh? Who wants to end up being tortured in Guantanamo the PMO.... along with all those YouTube commenters? And the main thing is Stephen Harper asked ordinary Canadians to tell him what they think of him. And boy did they EVAH.
Well I see it was another great day on Parliament Hill. Stephen Harper said that we don't need an inquiry into the torture of Afghan detainees because we already have one.
The Prime Minister stood and responded in kind, singing from his songbook in shrugging one-part harmony. “Mr. Speaker, I think we have been very clear" he sang. Justice Iacobucci will conduct a thorough inquiry on those documents and he will report according to his terms of reference.” While his Justice Minister denied that.
Justice Minister Rob Nicholson stood for this one and expressed some puzzlement. “Mr. Speaker,” he said, “it is not an inquiry.” Then the ugly Con sherriff Vic Toews came galloping out on a burro, foaming into his fascist mustache and smearing the media.
Because the Sheriff knows a hypocrite when he sees one. DADDY !!!
But never mind about that, because the Big Event of the day came when Michael Ignatieff set out to prove he was a REAL Canadian by engaging in the new Canadian tradition of Biting the Seal.
Forget the Winter Olympics, nothing unites Canada's parliamentarians like some bacon-wrapped seal loin.
Although did he really have to look as if he was eating something that resembles a doggy? Don't his advisers know anything? Didn't they tell him to stare at the camera, smile with his eyebrows, and just think about the BACON?
And BTW if anyone thinks this heroic gesture will impress the Europeans I'm afraid they're going to be disappointed. Last spring, the Governor General Michaelle Jean ate raw seal meat from a fresh carcass when she attended a community ceremony in Nunavut. As far as political statements go, it might have only been less subtle had she wiped her mouth with the Canadian flag. But then they're hypocrites too damn them. I guarantee that you could wrap a dog turd in bacon, and the Brits WOULD eat it. Oh boy. Luckily I don't have to prove I'm a real Canadian eh? No matter what Jason Kenney says. Because I've decided to take some time off from helplessly watching my country burn. And do what real Canadians do at this time of the year. Like celebrate the almost end of winter...
With my buddy and my dog.
Because he's now 14 and starting to show his age. This could be our last summer together. So if he wants to concentrate on the simple joys of life...
So do I. Yup. Sometimes it's hard to be a Canadian eh? And sometimes it isn't. See you in a while...
OK. I want to make some things absolutely clear Your Honour. I think Rahim Jaffer should have received at least six months for hypocrisy. I also believe that Helena Guergis should have been arrested for banging on a security door at that airport in P.E.I. Because if me or the White Rabbit had done that we'd still be in jail being "interrogated" by CSIS. And of course, I believe this judgement IS a travesty of justice. But I have to admit I couldn't be more delighted. Because I didn't really want to see Rahim go to jail, and it's going to hurt the Cons BIG TIME.
As we all know even though the crime rate is going down, these law and order crazies been cranking up their Fear Machine to try to scare Canadians into voting for them.
Canadians lose faith in the criminal justice system when they feel that the punishment does not fit the crime. And now they look like hypocrites or idiots. And the opposition should use the opportunity to take control of the crime issue. Because after all, who are these criminals anyway? Let's see...they're greedy, they're predatory, they're selfish. They're hateful, they're bullies, they despise rules and regulations. It's all about THEM and to hell with society. Does that sound like Liberals or NDPers, or does that sound like Cons? And of course all of the above is only going to make Great Ugly Leader's Afghan Torture and Rape Scandal look even more sinister. People will wonder what is he HIDING? Could he be a criminal too? And golly why is he so afraid of the Auditor General?
The auditor general is taking a first look at the nearly $50 billion Conservative stimulus plan that already has the opposition screeching foul over how projects are chosen and the plan promoted to voters.
It would be as reckless for Harper to wait for Fraser's late fall audit as it would be to bring down a bad-news budget before the next election.
Answer: Because when the AG gets a good sniff of that corrupt Porky Action Plan, I have a feeling she'll call in the RCMP, and bust the Cons all the way to Alberta. Stephen Harper as a Crime Fighter? Muahahahaha. Talk about Alice in Wonderland. Which reminds me...if we can't get Rahim to play a Card and paint the roses green in a prison garden. Because let's face, it after this debacle his only option is the Marijuana Party. Do you think we could get Helena Guergis to play Alice or Lady Gaga?
I didn't think so.*Sigh* Oh well. Coming soon...my even BETTER version starring Jason Kenney. Lady Hee Haw in Gayland. Because you know what they say about Cons and criminals eh? They can run but they can't HIDE...
When I watched Question Period today and I saw Stephen Harper and his Cons making torture sound like a joke.
Or insist that his misogynistic religious fanatics are helping women, on International Women's day, when they have assaulted the rights of Canadian women from the moment they came to office. And I read how Jason Kenney is being allowed to get away with murder.
Immigration Minister Jason Kenney denies the omission was deliberate and has promised to correct the mistake.
We're inclined to believe him, considering the bold tone of the 2010 guide.
Even though it WAS deliberate. When I saw how impotent our opposition leaders looked, even though they represent many more Canadians than the Cons ever will.
I felt dizzy like that other Simon in the Lord of the Flies did when he stared at the pig's head...
And realized who the monster was. And what he was doing to Canadians. Who would have thought that so many Canadians would buy into the government's phony law 'n order agenda...But the law 'n order campaign itself has worked. It's conned Canadians into believing there's reason to be afraid. For the first time in years, a majority of Canadians approve the death penalty, a coarsening of public sensibilities that seemed almost impossible And what he could do to our country:
If a government that has the backing of less than a third of Canadians, a Prime Minister who is resented for his inability to resist the low road and the low blow, a leader who ditches absolute commitments without batting an eyelash, who has humiliated the institutions of Parliament, the Supreme Court and the Governor-General, whose economic “expertise” embarrasses economists and whose foreign policy is driven by ignorance and prejudice – what further changes to our national values can he get away with?
And who in the world is going to stop him?
All I could say.... when I recovered from my dizzy spell ....was the truth will set us free eh? And Gerald Caplan is wrong about one thing.There is something we can do. We can put our tortured Canada before our political parties, and form a strong coalition to drive these Cons from power. It's really quite simple. Either we do that or we watch our beautiful country slowly being corrupted and destroyed. Watch the flies crawl up the pig's nose. While we sit on our asses, flip through the ugly channels of Con Canada. And scream, and scream and SCREAM...
Yup. Isn't it time to change the channel and do something DIFFERENT ?
Organize, UNITE, get ready to fight.Our country is screaming for help. And time is running out....
I suppose I could write about how Stephen Harper's plan to sing Oh Conada all the way to a majority, left him looking like a flip flopper and an idiot.
The timing could not have been worse and the Prime Minister clearly needs someone in an office filled with sycophants to grab his collar and shake these sorts of bad ideas out of his head.
And left his pathetic sycophants looking like stooges.
Or I could thank Jason Kenney again... for proving that there IS a hidden agenda.
The guide condemns "barbaric cultural practices" such as spousal abuse, honour killings and female genital mutilation, but ignores the barbaric practice of discriminating against someone based on their sexual preference.
Which we are going to use to KILL these bigot Cons in the next election. And while we're at it... I suppose that while Harper does the Torture Tango. And Jason Kenney sings Onward Christian Soldiers...or I'm a Closet Queen and I'm OK. I could sing this song: Stephen and Jason went up the hill To fetch a golden majority. Stephen fell down and broke his crown, And Jason came tumbling after. But since it's almost Spring in Canada. And my companion Sébastien is back later today after almost three weeks in Haiti. I hope you don't mind if I sing this silly little song instead...
Because I know the joy, the power, and the glory of gay love. Where a kiss is still an act of defiance that could get you killed. But bigotry only makes that love stronger. Oh yeah....and Jason Kenney can eat his dirty heart out. Or BITE me. Have a happy Sunday everyone !!!
He says he likes to see fear in the eyes of others. But why is Stephen Harper so afraid of the truth, and what dark secret is he hiding?
Tonight the CBC National is reporting allegations the Con government made the torture of Afghan detainees a deliberate policy. Which would make Harper and his political thugs WAR CRIMINALS.
"If these documents were released [in full], what they will show is that Canada partnered deliberately with the torturers in Afghanistan for the interrogation of detainees."
Which would explain why he shutdown Parliament. And make this stalling tactic even more outrageous.Because no retired judge has the power to tell Parliament what it can or cannot read.
Oh boy. It's hard to believe something so horrible could happen in Canada. But if it turned out to be true, would we really be surprised? When these hideous alien Cons have assaulted our precious Canadian values from the moment they came to office.
They attacked women by removing the word "equality" and destroying a national daycare program. They savaged their opponents like a pack of rabid animals. Nothing was too low for these hateful ideologues.
They went after feminist groups, and human rights organizations. They bullied poor Rémy Beauregard to death.
Never, ever, ever, forget how those bastard bullies treated that gentle, decent man. Or forget that only foul Cons could appoint a xenophobe and a homophobe to head a human rights organization.
Or how those crazy religious fanatics are going after gay and lesbian Canadians. Again.
Notably absent from an otherwise commendable document, however, was any reference to gay rights or equality rights. These are important omissions, particularly at a time when many immigrants are arriving from parts of the world where homosexuality is illegal and where discrimination is widely practised. New Canadians need to understand that while they may not immediately share Canada's sense of justice, the law protects certain groups from open prejudice. Even though they have a right to be treated with dignity and respect in their own country. Even though it could hurt them or cost them their lives.
Even though that kind of crazy bigotry could cost me mine.
In the last few days, after writing about the theocon conspiracy, I have been bombarded with ugly comments, and creepy veiled threats. Now some weirdo has been wandering around my neighbourhood asking people if they know where I live. And this evening when I took my dog for a walk in the woods nearby, I had the strange feeling I was being stalked.
Hey maybe I'm paranoid. And who could blame me eh? Living in Stephen Harper's Con Canada, the kind of place where paranoia can become a higher state of consciousness...as one grand old mama feminist once told me. And don't worry I am not afraid. I can defend myself. And when Sébastien gets home on Sunday, I'll feel totally safe again.
But all I ask brothers and sisters is that you fight these hideous hatemongering Cons like you've NEVER fought them before. Because the evil is now very close to the surface, and it's bubbling out like acid....and corroding our beautiful country. Organize, UNITE, fight them until these monstrous Cons are driven from power and we have our Canada back. Fight them, fight them, fight them, like I have always tried my best to do. And because I'm not afraid of them. And because it's Friday night. And because I love R.E.M. Fight them, fight them, fight them, until the day is done...
Or until the Cons are done eh?
Oh mama. Won't THAT be a beautiful day? Have a great weekend everybody !!!!
According to Sacramento-based CBS13, Ashburn was “was arrested for allegedly driving drunk after leaving Faces, a gay nightclub in midtown Sacramento, early Wednesday morning.
I am proud that this is the first citizenship guide that does mention gay and lesbian Canadians, unlike the one that it replaces.
The mention he's talking about...on page 26 of the Guide.
Mark Tewksbury as a prominent gay activist?
Instead of: In Canada gay people have the right to live in peace and dignity. In exactly the same number of words as that miserable little caption. And let's never forget this: Mr. Kenney responded that perhaps he has “a higher estimation than the member does about new Canadians” and that he does not believe “that new Canadians are potential gay-bashers.”
This particular point is perhaps interesting because the new citizenship guide does specifically warn that Canada does not tolerate “spousal abuse, ‘honour killings,’ female genital mutilation or other gender-based violence.”
Because violence against women is something to be warned against, but not violence against gays.
Oh boy. That's the LIMIT eh? La Kenney is not only a grubby homophobe, and a sinister theocon. He's also a dangerous idiot.
Con times are KRAZY times. Cue the dancing chihuahua...
Well I see the Con hog Jason Kenney is squealing that he didn't have anything to do with exterminating , eliminating , wiping out gay Canadians from the ConCanada Guide.
Asked Wednesday why he blocked any information about same-sex marriage and charter rights protecting sexual orientation, Jason Kenney said: "I did not do such a thing. No, no, you are wrong."
And then running like a piglet.
The minister then disappeared into the Conservative caucus room in the Centre Block of Parliament Hill.
But then as Adam Radwanski points out this grubby porker homophobe lives in a world of mixed messages. First he claims the credit from his rabid base. And then he denies it.
But what he can never deny is that this decision is far more evil than even disappearing gay Canadians...or erasing them from history. After just forty years of freedom. Because it could result in more gay Canadians being hurt or MURDERED.
They did it for a reason. To stop young immigrant men, from homophobic backward countries, from attacking gay people or harrassing women. Even the misogynist Cons seem to recognize that women need to be protected by including stuff like this in the ConCanada Guide. "In Canada, men and women are equal under the law. Canada's openness and generosity do not extend to barbaric cultural practices that tolerate spousal abuse, ‘honour killings,' female genital mutilation or other gender-based violence."
But they couldn't do the same for gay people because they hate them so BARBARICALLY.
So now prospective immigrants won't get the message that gay people are entitled to live their lives in peace and dignity. So now every gay person in Canada will be in even MORE danger of being assaulted, hurt, or murdered. Of ending up in a pool of blood, just for who they are. Just for who they love.
Jason Kenney is a grubby homophobe, a religious thug, and a LIAR. For which he should be held in contempt by all decent people.
But when he puts his brutish Con ideology before the lives and the safety of more than a million Canadians, he deserves to be ARRESTED.
Wonder why we feel this way? Imagine the person you love the most ....with the back of their head caved in by a baseball bat. In a country with a bigot government where gay kids are already terrorized. And homophobes attack us and get away with it, over and over again.
Three months ago I wondered why the Cons had omitted any mention of gay rights in their new Citizenship Guide. But of course I knew the answer. And now everybody does. Internal documents show an early draft of the guide contained sections noting that homosexuality was decriminalized in 1969; that the Charter of Rights and Freedoms forbids discrimination based on sexual orientation; and that same-sex marriage was legalized nationally in 2005.
But Mr. Kenney, who fought same-sex marriage when it was debated in Parliament, ordered those key sections removed when his office sent its comments to the department last June. But still that Con hog LIED. The gay-rights group Egale Canada met with the minister in early December after learning the booklet made no reference to gay and lesbian rights, and is negotiating with the department to have them included in the next printing, about a year away.
Mr. Kenney told the group that gay rights had been "overlooked" when the guide was being prepared, executive director Helen Kennedy said in an interview from Toronto. Even though it could cost gay LIVES. But still some of the best among us deny the existence of the theocon conspiracy. How can they when the evidence is staring at them in the face? Those bigot theocons are waging a secret war against our precious Canadian values, and they are planning to limit abortion and EXTERMINATE gay rights.
When will the blinkers come off? When will people understand it can happen HERE.
If even the good people don't see the danger what chance do we have? When will our leaders have the courage to attack these wretched bigots?
Because I'm fighting for MY life... and the lives of the people I love. And as I said in that other post. I know who those bastards are...
Fight them. Fight them. Fight them. Don't let them win....
Well I see Great Chucky Leader is back in Ottawa, hoping that Canadians are feeling so good after the Olympics, they'll forget that he shutdown Parliament to avoid questions about torture. Because that and living in the best country in the world don't go together eh? And that old medal hooker must think we're IDIOTS. Having brought along his official photographer, Mr. Harper managed to capture for posterity his reaction to the heartbreaking U.S. equalizer, the moment of victory in overtime and even his trip to the locker room to congratulate the champions.
Because if Vancouver was a great party it had everything to do with the athletes and the people, and NOTHING to do with him. And how can we be the best country in the world as long as Great Ugly Leader is Prime Minister? Besides I just don't think it's going to work because Stephen Harper is now damaged goods. Pollster Frank Graves says he thinks prorogation planted the seed for a bigger problem for Mr. Harper: His personal approval ratings plummeted, and now most voters outside his base of Tory supporters disapprove of his performance. "It lit the fuse that consolidated a whole series of anxieties and concerns that a certain portion of the electorate were having about Mr. Harper's management style."
So now everything we throw at him will hurt more than it EVER did. Because now even MORE people don't trust him. Question his motives, ask him about the theocons in the PMO, ask him whether he's turned on more by torture or Jesus. Ask him why he wants an election before the auditor general reports on his corrupt Porky Patronage Plan. Demand a public inquiry into the brutish Con assault on Rights and Democracy.
And the Chucky will look like a monster...or a DUMMY. And oh yeah...Stephen Harper posing as a patriot? Don't make me laugh. Just give me the strength to help defeat him. Because prorogation still matters. Real Canadians care about democracy. And of course, because I want my country to be the best country in the world eh?
