Glen Reynolds: Why Barack Obama Should Resign.

More confirmation of what has always been perfectly obvious: children are being drugged up for no medically helpful reason at all.

The Liberal party has put out a new you-tube video of Justin.

It can be seen at their website,or at the CBC site.However,the CBC also includes a story explaining the video,so it is the better choice for your Justin fix.

Re: CBC.Ca article on Enbridge.

"Enbridge breaks safety rules at pump stations across Canada."

http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/story/2013/05/05/pol-enbridge-breaks-neb-safety-rules.html

Re: Comments on this article. This my comment in case it doesn't get published.

"This is not about pipeline safety issues. It`s about the CBC bashing western Canada on a daily basis.

A message to all of you eastern leftist critics. Where does this article talk about Harper? Do you believe that the PM goes around the country telling Enbridge how to run its operations? This is Western Canada, not Ontario or Quebec where most of you couldn`t buy a garden hose without the government telling you what size and what colour.

How many of you socialists have ever worked on a pipeline, an oil rig or in a refinery! Every line that hasn`t got an electric driven valve has a manual shutoff. If they don`t have an electric backup its because they don`t need one. Enbridge goes back to the days of Pan Canadian. Back in the days when the Liberals were trying to get our oil for free until Peter Lougheed stopped them.

If things are so bad at Enbridge, why do so many of you Liberals move out west and work for the oil industry? Why don`t you all stay back east and tap your maple trees. That's the apex of technology for most Liberals."

PS: A message to CBC. Instead of showing a valve complex at Hardisty, Alberta, why don't you show the valve system at Chalk River, Ont. Or should we go there??

Great comment, Plainzdrifter, hope it gets through at the CBC site.

The top (lead) story on CBC's "Hockey Night in Canada" version of The National (short and sweet and wedged between two games, which pretty much guarantees a much larger audience) was that same "Enbridge breaks safety rules" (non)story you commented on.

It's strange to hear this breathless, gratuitous eco-alarmism delivered by a guy (Mansbridge) in a suit, tailored for eastern urban progressives, and short of the sort of knowledge/details so many people outside of a particular eastern corridor are aware of.

It's enough to make one sick that the rest of us are paying over a billion a year for this anti-oil, anti-west advocacy all dressed up as "news" and tailored for Liberal/NDP/ecoloon constituency.

The CBC should be choked off.

Chinese solar panel maker Suntech flames out
By Steven Mufson, Published: May 3 The Washington Post,

In 2008, CNN named Shi “China’s Sunshine Boy.” In 2009, Fortune anointed him “China’s new king of solar.” That year, New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman also cited Shi and Suntech as models of China’s green leap forward — which he called “the Sputnik of our day” and a spur for U.S. clean energy policy.

Now, however, the Chinese Sputnik has crashed to Earth, and the Sun King has been toppled.

… a Chinese court declared the company bankrupt after a petition from eight Chinese banks. On Wednesday, the company announced that its 2012 revenue had plunged 48 percent from the previous year.

Suntech — which in 2011 was the world’s biggest seller of silicon-based photovoltaic modules — was once valued at $13 billion on the New York Stock Exchange; it is worth less than 1 percent of that today. A news report that Warren Buffett might be eyeing all or part of Suntech lifted the battered share price more than 80 percent in one week, but acquiring Suntech could be a risky bet. [Buffett denies this according to Bloomberg]

Now look what the stupid bastards are up to.
I guess we can look forward to Arab Summer, Further destabilization of the Middle East, and more dollars flowing in to the pockets of radical Islamists.

P.S. the MSM has debuted the replacement of radical Islamism with the new label conservative Islamism. Look for it in rags everywhere.

European Commission to criminalize home grown tomatoes

Who the hell is John Doyle, except for the unabashedly Leftard television critic at the Probe and Fail. Listen to this drivel:

We the people elected a federal government that is unapologetically hostile to culture and science.

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/arts/television/is-the-cbc-in-crisis-or-is-canada-in-crisis/article11740003/

What he actually means is that "we the people" (not the CBC, nor the other chattering classes) began to question AGW because, it transpires, it was a hoax perpetrated by the likes of lyin', let's-make-a-gazillion-off-this-snake-oil Gore and Suzuki. We the people (not the CBC, nor the other chattering classes) also began to tire of the media's overexposure, ad nauseum, of feminist, gay, and Native causes. The CBC doesn't "do" one mom/one dad families or mention the stability these families for the most part secure for their children, even though they bleat about child poverty which they again never mention is primarily caused by divorce and/or single-mom "families" that never form in the first place.

I did enjoy his reference to I'm-Peter-Mansbridge-and-you're-not as "Pastor Mansbridge."

"The worst unemployment crisis in modern history is unfolding right now"

"At 27.2%, Spain is suffering the worst unemployment rate in modern history.

Spain is tied with Greece, and is worse than the approximately 25% unemployment rate that the U.S. saw during The Great Depression.

The causes, by now, are familiar — the end of a massive, bubble-fueled construction boom in 2008 led to spiraling unemployment and a deep recession, wreaking havoc on the Spanish economy."
