About Kate
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."

One man, one vote...
This is amazing....but then....
I need a bigger gun.....more ammo...
There are no words.
These people vote?!?
What I'd be curious to know is how many blacks in total were interviewed and what fraction were as clueless as the ones who made the program. Looks like the only consideration they have regarding who to vote for is who's going to give us the most free stuff. Obviously anything to do with the magnitude of the national debt is something they are incapable of comprehending; sort of like trying to teach quantum mechanics to ones pet.
I strongly suspect that the new Chicom overloads won't be nearly as tolerant when they come to collect what they're owed.
And the DemoncRats think Howard is brain dead? Oh wait. Leftards don't think.
For many - perhaps most people acquiring political label is an ego enhancing exercise: I vote for X party because I am better than you.
Bring on the FEMA camps, it's the only solution left.
SCAR - EE.
Let's see:
McCain's running this time. So's Palin.
Paul Ryan is Obama's pick for VP.
Obama's pro-life and anti-gay marriage.
Bin Laden's still alive and should be tortured but not killed.
Mitt Romney's a Muslim -- and it doesn't bother people that he's black or pro-choice and for gay marriage.
Oo boy.
Congratulations! batb wins the Retard of the Day Award!
His prize is a customized brand spanking new hockey helmet and a seat on the short bus for a free ride to the zoo.
Jist make sure you don't lick the windows, batb.
Anyone that supports torture but not killing is morally warped.
I've contended for a long time that there should be a minimum intelligence requirement to be able to vote.
Doug did you watch the Video?
probably not.
I agree,
Paul Ryan should not be disqualified just because he is a gay afro american..
Yet another Stern classic.
Time for a clever paraphrasing of Robert Heinlein's quote, “Never try to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and it annoys the pig.”
Any takers?
A very high percentage of american are total idiot.
Nothing new there.
Whew! If you are what you attract the US and the world could be in for some interesting times.
This is why dems vote early and often, the gene pool is pretty shallow.
"A very high percentage of american are total idiot.
Nothing new there."
A high enough percentage to elect Obama in 2008. This is idolatry on display. Nothing can dissuade these type people because they are incapable of rational thought. Even though their life circumstances are worse than 4 years ago, 'their guy' is in the White House and they'll be smiling as we all plunge over the cliff.
Maybe there would be hope if they only let dead people vote.
The best argument against democracy is a five minute conversation with the average voter.
W. Churchill
This is just hilarious, people just don't know anything at all it appears.WOW, hard to believe.
The best argument against democracy is a five minute conversation with the average voter.
Although I don't disagree with WC, those iterviewees were not the average voter; they were minus-two-sigmas who are a pretty small percentage of the "voting" population.
The bigger problem is people with average or above average intelligence who are stuck with a philosophy they learned in Kindergarten and choose not to develop their thinking beyond that level.
This is obama's problem, his supporters are not likely to vote

Ahhhh, you finally found some common ground. You and Marois should be thinkin' about amalgamation.
Doug be du winna.
You wonder why Obama is going on Entertainment Tonight, The View, and The Pimp With A Limp shows?
Appealing to the idiots might be Obama's last hope, but it might make a difference.
Stern did the same thing during the 2008 election, with comparable results. I'd like to think that things are not quite so dire in Canada, but I'm not so sure.
These people probably couldn't even find a polling station if they tried.
The mind is a terrible thing and it must be stopped before it kills someone.
Sorry about my previous post - forgot thw link

"These people vote?!?"
Loki the Dems will bus them in to vote, and no ID required....just like in Zimbabwe.
If Stern interviewed people other than those shown here: www.safeshare.tv/v/fJuNgBkloFE then the US is in more trouble than anyone imagined. Unbelievable that ANY fraction of the public could be so stupid. And these people VOTE??
50% of the population are dumber than average.
that is a fact.
but all have the right to vote.
Lenin's useful idiots.......defined.
The sad part is, Romney keeps letting the water carriers define the campaign, by responding to their endless chatter, lies, and half-truths.
He has to start defining HIS campaign, and repeat as necessary. Stop responding to the hyenas on the left, they are constantly in attack mode, when you answer them honestly, they latch onto something, declare it evil, and prod him to answer for that.
You can't score when you are constantly on the defense.
There is nothing OBlameya has done to be proud of, he has NO jobs plan, or economic solutions to speak of. Yet Romney allows the left to define the campaign, his tax returns, 47%, "he's rich (that's evil)" meme, instead of OBozo's incompetent ways.
But he's cool, he's on Letterman, Beyonce likes him, and that pig Behar can't keep her hands off BigEars.
The MTV generation has arrived to vote and set policy......nice......
Hey, Doug. Listen to the radio show.
I'm not a guy by the way.
Now, you were saying ... something about "Retard"?
The US has gone Third World, it's just going to take a little more time for the shell shock of the psychological bombardment to wear off.
When it does, yowzers.
This is a great example of the power of repetition!
The voters have heard "Obama" over and over ad nauseum, and they know only ONE thing:they should vote for Obama!
"Look,Sally,see Spot. Look,look,look". I still remember that 57 years later. ;)
dmorris
Don't forget Puff. See Puff. See Puff play.
Apparently you and I are the same age.
I guess so,"grandad", but I was never a "cat" guy! ;-)
I watched Leno asking people on the street fairly easy questions,one was how Mount Rushmore came to be.One person's answer was from erosion.
H.Ryan >
Ha ha.
I like traditional Americans, have worked with them in the US and around the world and have great respect for their easy going professionalism and no nonsense inherent ability to understand problems and solve them efficiently.
On the other hand far too many local Americans are the dumbest least educated people outside of African third world crapholes. And it’s growing exponentially; already past the point of no return now IMO.
How does this happen to the most respected and prosperous nation on earth?
That is the biggest problem for the great Americans remaining to ask and solve, but there’s too few of them left anymore to be of any real affect in relative proportion to the rest.

Mark, so true. After you torture someone you kill him. You don't give him a chance to complain about what happened to him.
Where went all the education money to?
I bet its not much better here.
Some one should do this next election. Ask people if they are going to vote for Pet or if Harper should get in because hes for banning guns.
That the NDPs rabid dog should be voted in for supporting the West.
Even ask if Canada should become a separate Nation from England. All kinds of fun questions.
To be honest this scares me a might.
If you interview enough people on the street you will find an occasional idiot that thinks themselves smart. If you replay only the idiots you make all the people on the street look like idiots. Rick Mercer has been doing it for years.
I'm with Joe. These folks are on the radio for their first and probably last time and they're thinking, "I got to get this right, this is my most important thing since teacher axed me about my favoritist kind of ice cream"
They've picked Obama and......you know
cal2 at September 24, 2012 12:59 PM
Agreed but then logically half the population is below average.......Scary ain't it?
Actually I have asked such questions of folk...not necessarilly strangers.
One just answered "you just wanna make fun of me".
I responded "that comes later."
Oh Lord it's hard to be humble.......
I think I understand why they let dead people vote now.
Speaking as an American, if I were you lot I'd seal my southern boarder and not let ayone across unless they could prove they could support themselves.
The Great Society failed those people.
