  10. Thanks for that link to ” Six Principles Of Propaganda Lenin Used To Consolidate Power”.
    We can see those six principles in practice all around us today, particularly by many politicians on the left, by our educational systems, and by our media.
    I do have two of Peter Kenez’s books in my library, but his “The birth of the Propaganda State: Soviet Methods of Mass Mobilization, 1917 – 1929”
    Do you have any idea how to access the next at the end of the precis?

  11. Too bad there is not an edit button, as I should have said I do not have Kenez’s book “The Birth of the Propaganda State”.

  13. “The political discussions in both Canada and Australia, [Suzuki] warned, need to shift from being driven by ideology to being evidence-based.”
    It’s the AGW crowd that is in thrall to a false ideology, while the skeptics take full note of a distinct lack of truthful evidence for it.
    “Asked by an audience member whether he still believes all climate-skeptic politicians should be jailed, Suzuki said yes.”
    Shut up, he explained.

  14. Thanks for that link. I found it interesting how ignorant he was on various subjects but how there were two sides to a story and they were both his. The audience also seemed very partisan.

  16. From the “I hear jack boots at the doorstep” file –
    PUPPY SURVIVES BEING SHOT IN THE HEAD BY TRIGGER-HAPPY COP
    ““I will never, ever, ever look at the police the same way again,” Nice told the Daily Post. They are trigger-happy. It’s ridiculous. Go shoot a murderer, not a dog.” Police have not released the name of the officer involved”
    Feel safer with more cops on the street?

  21. New commenting guidleines at the CBC.
    5.Radio-Canada: Use French for all of your exchanges and comments. Other languages cannot be used except for an occasional word.

    Sacre’ blue.

  23. Neo-AGW PR: Kemo Sabay, Tonto?
    Ughly.
    “To help promote this agenda, a Canadian producer has recruited arch-environmentalist David Suzuki, “coal trains of death” climate catastrophist James Hansen, and former Haida Nation Council President Miles Richardson, to present “the wisdom of our elders” on “the global climate crisis.” Her film’s title, “Wakan Tanka,” means “great spirit” or “great mystery” in Lakota, the language of Dakota (Sioux) Indians.”

    “Desperate times in climate alarmism”
    “Computer models, scare stories and ad hominem rants underscore the alarmists’ desperation”
    Al Gore is in full attack model, employing his ridiculous “Climate Reality Project” to “Draw the Line on Denial,” even as he laid off 90% of the staff at his “Alliance for Climate Protection.” Greenpeace has joined the fray, launching a “Dealing in Doubt” campaign that blames ExxonMobil for funding the “global warming denial machine.”
    ClimateProgress.org blogger Joe Romm faithfully echoes “Goreacle” and Greenpeace hysterics and blame-casting. To serve his partisan propaganda, he completely ignores the reality that the climate cataclysm cabal outspends the “deniers” by at least $1,000 to $1; ExxonMobil hasn’t supported skeptic groups for years; and the real Big Oil money has gone to extreme green groups.

  26. Sorry – “are our” not “our are” – yes I am a product of the Ontario educational system!

  27. More Ordure of Canada: “an-order-of-lies”.
    H/T More cuts to Red-Green’s left-liberal arts.
    Who da liar? A Red-Greener “activist”:
    “LaPierre, who received the Order of Canada last year for his environmental conservation work, doesn’t have such a degree. Instead, he has a Ph.D. in education with a focus on the environment. He lied about his master’s degree, too—it’s in environmental education, not wildlife ecology.”
    “He resigned the position last week.”
    “When Maurice Dusseault heard the news, his reaction was, “Dammit, dammit, dammit. That shouldn’t happen.””

    “Order of Canada winner lied about Ph.D”
    “Why no one spotted a top science adviser who ‘misrepresented’ his credentials for 40 years”

  28. Red Green is clearly a conservative, not a leftard.
    You have some very strange ideas about Red Green.

  30. Pragmatist and nv53, the story about the Ontario athletic association removing the ball from soccer originated from a piece of satire: The CBC’s Peter Oldring did a radio mockumentary lampooning the Ontario Soccer Association’s decision to stop keeping score in all under-12 games by 2014. After a straight-faced “report” on the radio “documentary” was published on the CBC website it was subsequently taken at face value by a major newspaper — I forget which one it was, maybe the Washington Post? — who later red-facedly issued a correction, but by then it was already “out there” in the blogosphere, and probably a few other newspapers as well
    Good satire should be convincing and at least half-plausible sounding, so kudos to Oldring.
