"I just got a call from the socialist political party I support. It turns out they're beating the bushes and digging in the couch cushions to try to find financial support for their upcoming election drive. The very nice young woman who called me warned me that the opposing party (which is doing a pretty okay job of running the province, if you ask me, which you haven't done, but I'm telling you anyway) starting to fundraise for their party already (DANGER! DANGER WILL ROBINSON! DANGER! UPCOMING ELECTION!). I would have been *far more frightened* had she been able to pronounce the leader of the provincial opposition's name. "

"My indoctrination took place early, often, and was fairly comprehensive. And it's the good kind of indoctrination" lol whut?

Without this blog, would I ever reminisce about Billy Mumy and share his adventures again?
Wow! Action in the bullpen, another carpetbagger comes to slaughter.
The foul stench of narcissism.
An old Quote often wrongly attributed to Winston Churchill: "If you're 20 and not a Liberal you have no heart and if you're 40 and not a Conservative you have no head".
"Francois Guisot (1787-1874): "Not to be a
republican at twenty is proof of want of heart; to be one at thirty is
proof of want of head." It was revived by French Premier Georges
Clemenceau (1841-1929): "Not to be a socialist at twenty is proof of
want of heart; to be one at thirty is proof of want of head."
A new Quote: If you're 20 and a Liberal/Socialist, you have succumbed to the popular propaganda; if you're 40 and still a Liberal/Socialist, you're not paying attention".

If you're 20 and a Liberal/socialist, you have no knowledge of how the real world operates; if you're 40 and still a Liberal/socialist, you haven't learned a damned thing in 20 years.
Ideologically my polar opposite, but when I read some of her other entries, it was nice to see that she avoids the knee jerk groupings that are common to many liberals. Nothing worse than a blind follower of any stripe.
I was surprised that said nice things about John Gormley while acknowledging that she is not quite his target audience. Not a ranter...
NDPers should pay attention to their lucid supporters where they find them.
It just kills the Saskatchewan NDP people I know when I mention the leader of the former CCF is an ex "Big Oil" executive from Calgary, Alberta. I can see them visualize Tommy spinning in his grave.
Proving, again, Kate writes the best headlines.
Pretty funny.
Not as funny as the look on Wall's face now that he's admitted his fiscal mismanagement has blown a huge deficit hole in the budget, just as we're heading into a recession.
But still, pretty funny.
Socialists can be rich. Crooked buisnesses fear socialism.
Socialists can be rich if they are in power - then they take more than their equal share, for they are the enlightened vanguard who are more evolved than the proletariat.
So, the SP are doing just fine? A couple of days ago, everything was coming up roses. Now we are facing a deficit...this after blowing two billion left behind by those awful socialists. And what of the 750 million they got by selling off SaskFerco? Where'd that go?
And of course, there's the fiscal stabilization fund, which was just an election slush fund that should be gone, according to the SP in opposition. Now that's how they plan to plug the 2 billion-dollar hole in their "balanced" budget. Not to mention the Crown profits they are also planning to grab...sometimes those awful Crown Corporations do have some value, right Mr. Gantefoer?
These barons of Bay Street bragged about keeping the boom going (at least they admitted the NDP had created a boom)but somehow couldn't predict a downturn in potash sales when the major customers were all in serious recession. No wonder Wall went bankrupt in both of his private business ventures.
The 80s are back...and the result will be the same.
There is no proof the ndp stole money. That's a lie.
I was talking about socialists in general, sir - as I thought you were.
Why is Basil "Buzz" Hargrove a millionaire, "ok4u"? Does that have anything to do with union dues?
