Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

Man. Even in his resignation,he still is a blatant liar and socialist lefturd.It is definitely a mental disease.Maybe he was taking lessons from Boob Rae???
The GREEN agenda is a CAMPAIGN.
Anyone who jumps onto that bandwagon is a follower, and nothing more.
Next up on the chopping block science czar John Holdren.
Van Jones was a test case for Obama:
“No, Obama! Bad!”
It’s a start.
These aren’t mutually exclusive things.
Maybe I’m being a bit of a stickler here, but I think, even for the most transparent political purposes, that maybe Obama should have fired the guy since he hired him?
Tried to post this info earlier, but because the headline had profanity, it would not pass the filters. Glenn Beck DVR is renamed some nasty sh!t for calbevision viewers. What is up with that. if it was conservatives trying to do this there would be a major outcry. Lefties bug the shit out of me. They just insult, but have no real argumentss to uphold their position. Did you know that all references to the first lesson plans for the Obama speech to schools have been scrubed from the internet. If you try to acess a site that has the original plans you are met with a warning of a virus and not allowed to enter the site. Google an yahoo as well as all the web site search engines do the same. I thought it ficken wierd that when I hit on sites that had the original lesson plans I was advised by google that this was an unsafe site and contained a virus even though my virus checker confirmed otherwise. This occured no less than 23 times. Even though the doc site had the original lesson plans they changed it after 12:00 noon today and replaced thier doc with the new lesson plan The original lesson plans have been effectively scrubbed from the net. WTF is up with that.

I am worried about Glenn Beck. he will undoubtedly pay a price for his expsosure. I am also wondering why SDA is previewing my comments. Previously I posted under another name, but someone else was also posting under this name so I changed my nic. Now I get a “previewing your comment box” which I never got b4. I guess this is kinda good. If Kate was watching IP’s she would realize I have been posting for over a year under another name. Like I said, I changed my nic cause it was too generic and others were using it. I post know under the name on2u or 2cents to avoicd the generic confusion. Hoever, I an understand SDA’s caution seeing there are some legal issues involved.

wow..that is all I have to say. I wonder what is in the future for Glenn Beck. DVR cablevison had some nasty things to say. Glenn is investigating all the Czars – wonder who is next – deservedly so.

mightn’t they both be crazy?
Hmmm. I did not realize anyone else was posting under 2cents. I have been posting on this blog for at least 18 months. The reason I switched from posing as No-One to 2cents is someone else was posting under that name (no-one). I had no idea their had been previous comments from a 2cents during my 18 months of reading this blog. Sorry to say I do not remember your posts. Oh well…will post as my second name on2u. I have been alternating between cents and on2u – from No-One who would have thought this would be an issue … MEH.. will post as on2u – like that handle better anyway. I am interested in your previous posts and look forward to your future posts as 2cents.
In all honesty I can say I have never seen anyone post as 2cents previous to August. If anyone can verify this please do. Please post the comments that 2cents made b4 September or August 2009. Thank you.
Kate…was their a 2cents b4 this September? I whole heartedly apologize if I inadvetantly used a nic that had been used b4. I want to be known for my own opinions not to be confused with someone else.
Wow, if you read the NYT, the WP or the LAT this would have been right out of left field. Who knew?
(Well anyone who was paying attention but let’s forget those people.)
Kate – I am hoping you can check your IP’s and realize this is not the same person as me. I have been posting on your site for some time as No-One. 2cents claims seem rather odd to me. ”
“I am worried about Glenn Beck. he will undoubtedly pay a price for his exposure.” Do not recall posting this, bbut I did think it. I am also wondering why SDA is previewing my comments. Previously I posted under another name, but someone else was also posting under this name so I changed my nic. Now I get a “previewing your comment box” which I never got b4. I guess this is kinda good. If Kate was watching IP’s she would realize I have been posting for over a year under another name. Like I said, I changed my nic cause it was too generic and others were using it. I post now under the name on2u or 2cents to avoid the generic confusion. However, I am understand SDA’s caution seeing there are some legal issues involved.” I do not recall posting this, but perhaps I was not paying attention.
I do not recall posting this. Also, I have not been drunk lately, SDA I am wondering what is up.
Perhaps this is a ploy to get you to register persons like other sites.
Personally I do not really care, nor should others if someone uses the same Nick. Especially when they are rather generic like the one I posted under. What does bother me is complaints. It is not like someone owns the name. I have changed my Nick twice since finding out others used the same one. Personally, I like the fact that you can post on this site without registering. I hope you do not change that Kate, Please let me know – you have my email – if I have stepped on any toes and I will gladly change my Nick to avoid confusion.
And the Big Media didn’t do anything. It was the New Media who got him to resign. If it wasn’t for the New Media, Van Jones would still be in the Regime.
We have proven conclusively that the Big Media is irrelevant, that they’re biased, etc. After all, if it had been a Republican czar who had been found to be a racist, a conspiracy theorist and overall total wackjob… No doubt we’d have heard of it all all the time. Couldn’t turn on the TV without NBC, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, etc… screaming about it. Couldn’t walk by a newsstand without seeing big front-page headlines about the guy.
Now we’ll have to train our crosshairs onto the other “czars”…
Baaa hhhaaaawwaaa!
Chucky over at little green leftist must be just inhaling beta blockers at this point.
Anyone here able to view LGF? I have long since been IP banned for daring to point out that Beck has been knonwn to be correct on occasion. Charles did not take that idea lightly. LOL
Good on Glenn.
The original lesson plans for the presidents speech to schools has been scrubbed from the INTERNET. If you try to open a site that has the info you are given a virus waning or an official site is unavailable – internet connection problem. Contol of the internet is already here.
And the winning post over at hotair?
“Obama’s total green jobs created: -1”
Coffee came out through the nose on that one. An uncomfortable sensation by the way………
Green Jobs by the Jones Boys: It’s an amalgam of the Truthers, the Contrailers, the UFOers, Lizzy May Red-Green, etc.

“Activists Topple Towers, Claim Dangers of AM Radio Waves (The Earth Liberation Front)
A group cited by U.S. officials as a domestic terrorism threat claimed responsibility Friday for knocking down two radio station towers in Snohomish County, Washington. Much of the tower system, owned by radio station KRKO, was “flattened like a pancake,” the manager said.”

Not since Joe McCarthy shuffled off this mortal coil in 1957 has anyone made a career by accusing people of being communists. Glenn Beck has resurrected the practice. Not only has he found a cabal of secret communists, he has uncovered an entire communist corporation chock full of commies. The name of this company, you may ask?
THE NATIONAL BROADCASTING COMPANY!
You heard me right, boys and girls. The network that gave us Uncle Miltie and Ma Perkins has apparently been secretly sending subliminal messages endorsing Marxist doctrine since it was formed in 1926. This would make perfect sense to me. Every time I watched the Rockford Files I had an unexplainable desire to read Das Kapital. But seriously, folks. Twenty years after the fall of the Soviet Union, red baiting not only seems silly, it’s also kind of nuts. It’s not-at-all surprising that an organization would give this idiot a forum (after all, he’s on FOX Noise). What’s really stunning is the fact that his ratings are relatively high and that so many Americans take his word as gospel.
All kidding aside, half-witted ideologues are a dime a dozen. What separates Glenn Beck from his peers is the fact that he is doing some serious damage to the country he professes to love so much. For all of the comparisons to the Nazis he likes to make with regard to Liberals, Beck’s program has much in common with Adolf Hitler’s 1923 screed, Mein Kampf. Eighty-six years ago, Hitler attempted to arouse the anger of his fellow Germans by spouting half truths and utter nonsense – exactly what Glenn Beck is doing in 2009. So much of the insane dialogue that has been spewed forth at these Town Hall meetings across the country in recent weeks might have been lifted straight from a transcript of any of Beck’s programs.
Beck and his twisted ilk have done the seemingly impossible. They have deflected the blame for America’s current economic distress toward Barack Obama. An incredible feat when you take into consideration the fact that the President is one of the few people in government today whose guilt in the matter is almost nil. They have also let loose with a vengeance the very worst angels of the American nature. Opening this Pandora’s box was relatively easy. Closing it might prove to be a bit of a problem.
Deep in their hearts
They do believe

I checked out the Tom Degan blog so others don’t have to. Don’t bother…typical leftie. They state someone is wrong and think that that is conclusive proof of their “wrongness”.
No facts. No responding-directly-to-allegations-by-using-facts…just denouncements without substance.
Two thumbs up for Glenn Beck! When I first read this story a couple of days ago, I was shaking my head. What is going on in the states? Now, they even hate our hockey teams? Glenn has uncovered some very important stories even before the big O took office. I think we should take a page from his book and start paying very close attention to what Acorn is doing in Canada, with Iggy Pop and his gang of thieves threatening us with yet another federal election. Acorn is what helped get O in the office, will they be doing the same thing with Iggy? Makes one go hmmmmmm
Tom Degan..Beck fact checks. bambam and the MSM don’t or hide the truth.
AtlanJim:
his comment @ LGF-
“Anyone who’s tempted to gloat at me over this, despite the fact that I’ve said very clearly Van Jones shouldn’t have been in that position, don’t waste your time. Take it somewhere else. Post that garbage here and it will be the last comment you post at LGF.”
Next Holdren and Sunstein and Lloyd.
Acorns don’t fall far from the tree; these guys are incredible!
The vetting process was not done with any effort ,or it was incompetently done, or it was done very consciously with a definite purpose.
Any one of these three is hard to believe but there seems to be no other explanation than incredible sloth, unbelievable incompetence, or near malevolent design. Or a percentage mix of all three. Poll anyone?
I wrote about the Czars a couple ofdays ago. They are an excutive that can operate outside the scrutiny of congress. But they cannot operate outside the scrutiny ofthe media – if it chooses to look. The new format of TV ‘news / op-ed that beck and oreilly and (sort of) olberman are can really do damage to the Czar system as beck has clearly done.
Czars may actually be unconstitutional with this scandal and possibly others to follow we could see a challenge coming sooner than later. Roosevelt had his comeuppance whe n he tried to stack the supreme court perhaps BO will have his over this attempt to create an excutive outside the law.
Today may be a very important milestone in American history…
My hat’s off to Glenn Beck but it was WORLD NET DAILY WHO WERE THE FIRST TO EXPOSE VAN JONES. Google: World Net Daily. They are proclaiming it this AM.
Many like Beck and Limbaugh are daily readers of this small but very effective independent news web site.
CNN this AM:
Van Jones resigns for controversial remarks and being an 9/11 truther…Beck was behind it/Van Jones had ask for Beck’s firing earlier because Glenn said Obama is a racist = Revenge from Beck…Republican senator had said a while back that Jones seemed like a nice guy for having helped her on a internet site.
That’s it, no in depth analysis or further explanation. It’s all Beck’s fault, Van Jones was not that bad a guy said a Republican.
According to CNN, Glenn Beck is more powerful than the opposition Republicans, I guess.
Is Beck the Walter Cronkite for the 21st Century?,
(Remember Cronkite’s opinion was instrumental for the end of the Vietnam war.)
It seems so, according to CNN. TeeHee!
Yes…Tom Degan
Beck just putting Van the Mans own words out there and doing the work the Senate confirmation committee wasn’t allowed to do.
WND on Sunstein

I watch Beck’s show; he does fact check… but then looses himself in his own paranoiac ideologies, pity, that, ‘the baby’s lost with the bath water’
… and as for his antipathetic polar opposite, DrJournalism, dolt, I’ve included my ID, do call~

As for the MSM ignoring what obviously was a very big story before the resignation and is now THE big story – it is absolutely a watershed moment.
First it was BO attacking RUSH by name – a radio talk show host who the elites wear it as a badge of honour to say that they do not listen to his show.
Now it is a FOX op-eder – a guy and a network who the MSM and the elite that controls it have said are illegitimate muckrakers of no substance – that has put a bomb through the HOPE and CHANGE carrier deck. The resignation is an event that will cost the MSM dearly in credibility with millions of their, up until now, loyal audience.
It reminds me of the time when the national enquirer broke the Gary Hart scandal. Before then the MSM utterly igored
the NE as a source of credible news, since then, they too – as an act of pure self-preservation – have started to dumpster dive for personal history dope on public figures.
Perhaps now they – for the same self-preservation motive – will start to dig into the foul, corrupt world of the BO machine.
Jones “resigned”; he was not “fired”. This leaves Obama with the opportunity to continue to use him in some other or similar capacity within his administration once the brouhaha has blown over. He has just lost his “czarhood”, not his function.
This is truly perplexing. All the marxist trust fund babies infesting the MSM could do was run a halfhearted suppression exercise while one of their Communist/truther buddies fell at the first hurdle? Talk about being caught flat footed.
Anyone who dislike Beck either doesn’t understand the use of hyperbole on television or is a rigid ideologue.

Regarding the use of pseudonyms when posting, I do believe that one should be willing to put one’s name to anything one writes. When I first began commenting, I did just that. Then, I googled myself and discovered that my name had been linked to opinions that were not mine, expressed sometimes in language I would never use. This seems to be a shortcoming of webcrawlers. When indexing SDA in particular, Google associates your name with the comment that comes after your post rather than with your own post. In one egregious instance, it linked my name with the text of the moronic article upon which the comment thread was based. I now use my initials.
Beck is really an American patriot for shedding light on all marxist/leninist, race baiting loonies Obamasiah has brought into power.
I’m thinking Michelle must be popping a vein right now. Her sense of victimization has just gone up a few more levels.
A word of cautionto those who think that BO has now chance of saving his presidency:
if BO sticks to the government option in his speech this Wednesday then he is , I think, indeed doomed as many moderates in the dem party will abandon him. Some might even begin to openly oppose him ( thinking of their own candidacy in 2012 no doubt).
But, and I think it more likely, he may abandon the governement plan and go to “plan b” (google fred barnes plan B for more details) where he will propose insuance companies be forced to insure all risks while at the same time making it mandatory for all Americans to buy coverage (mass already has something like this). If he does this he will be hailed as the Great concilIator – Mitt Romney will likely support the idea as well as other GOP members and BO will zoom back up in the polls. Plan b is a disaster for America but it could be a political lifesaver for BO.
Be careful about considering this a strategic ‘win’. I’ll suggest it isn’t. It’s a tactical manoeuvre.
Obama had to remove Jones from the spotlight in preparation for his ‘Talk to the Children’ on Tuesday and above all, for his unprecedented speech to Congress on Wednesday. But that’s it; Jones is removed from the spotlight. Obama will move him quietly to another role.
And, Obama and Gang will move against FOX, against Beck, against the Internet and against bloggers.
What should be done? More Beck, Internet, Blog questions about Obama’s Czars. Obama is setting up a Third Administration, outside the constraints of the Constitution and outside of the control of the People – and this ought to be the focus. Not simply individual Czars as in the case of Jones, but the whole system that Obama has set up – it’s undemocratic.
Here’s one example of how the “mainstream” press around here is covering it:
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/bmangan/detail?entry_id=46989
And here’s another:
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/abraham/detail?entry_id=46991
Admittedly, these are clearly identified as opinion pieces. The actual reporting from the Chronicle is an AP feed.
ET…right on the money.
As I understand what has happened, there was to be a czar position called the ‘internet fairness czar’ and now we have ‘diversity czar’ Mark Lloyd laying out his thoughts on ,what I call, an attack on radio and the net.
After Jones departure, of the the bag of nuts left, (Holdren-Sunstein-Lloyd), Lloyd represents the immediate problem. Not that the administration’s position would change if any of the czars left but at least if enough of them exit perhaps the MSM might start to notice.
Here is a terse CBS News article about Jones and his problems: http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/09/04/politics/politicalhotsheet/entry5288607.shtml
Notice their attempt to minimize Jones’ radical behavior as mere “foibles”.
The great thing about all this for conservatives is that Glenn Beck and his Fox News brethren will continue to hammer these pukes by calling attention to their radical, nutty beliefs. It is not hard to do this when so much of it is on YouTube for all to see. The MSM, which has always shielded the left from public scrutiny when possible, must be furious to have the Beck types go around them to get the truth out. Fox’s skyrocketing ratings must be like salt in a wound for the liberal press.
Some of the Obama team people are over the top, I think they are trying to inflame the right and hoping someone will do something stupid, then they can demonize the right and ram throught thier crap. I mean if there was some sort of “Extreme rightwing Oklahoms bombing” type event, the left and the MSM would love it and milk it for all its worth.
As for Obama and his his ‘Talk to the Children’ on Tuesday, the silly fool did not even check to see if school was in session. Most in the U.S. are not.
