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."

But it's not a Confederate battle flag (probably brought by a Moby) so it's okay.
actually I think that far right in the US is as looney as the far left here in Canada. Harper would never be considered as a possible president of the US because he is not conservative enough to even step into Obama's shoes
When everyone was singing and dancing when Obama got elected the first time, I said, he is still an American president.
As it so happens, the "Teatards" are pretty much the last thing standing between the USA and complete ruin.
Take away the "Teatards" and the USA is done, cooked like Thanksgiving turkey.
And Iran is laughing all the way to the west bank.....
Yeah well, don't get knots in yer toga.....this pathetic little gathering shows these idiots are voices crying in the wildnerness....hardy a groundswell.
11 people, one with wit....yup, about right.nn
is it difficult to type with both feet in the mouth???
McBrain (McCain) was the GOP candidate in '08, and he's almost left of obumbles
"Why does Organizing For Action hate the mentally challenged?"
They hate EVERYBODY, especially themselves.
Thats why Liberalism is a "Mental disorder".
It has been my scholarly opinion that the retards are usually the ones holding up the signs in a public display of stupidity. Am I supposed to think differently because some idiot is waving a sign around? Or throwing rocks at the police and gobbing on them? Or, as our Occutards are prone to do - camping, defecating and fornicating in public parks?
If I could be motivated by such displays I suppose I would probably be a Dipper or a commie moron too...
Speaking of lefty "intolerance" we are about to see the Obamunists hold the nation ransom to their demands for unlimited spending by mobilizing the zombie hordes who are kept mollified with state welfare largesse.
There is now a USDA standing order to cut the Obama voters off food stamp assistance next month. Prepare for riots and the inevitable finger pointing at the GOP who are attempting to stop debt inflation with a budget impasse.

There was a time when such public displays of ignorance used to anger me. Not so much anymore. When someone is inclined toward stupidity to begin with and receives his diet of current events from sources like CNN or ABC, can the outcome be any different? Does anyone honestly think that this cretin has even the slightest idea of the realities of the so-called government shutdown? Does he realize that more borrowing to pay off debt is simply wrong and will come back to bite you in the ass every time? Does he fully understand the ramifications of Obamacare? Can he even spell Obamacare? Sadly, this sign-wielding loser, and many more of his ilk are allowed to vote.
I know that many people WANT that to be true, but look at the moves Obama has made, and the moves that Harper has made. Obama's is in the direction of statism ubiquity and corporate cronyism, Harper's in the direction of finding devolution AWAY from Ottawa whenever the opportunity strikes.
In other words, when you're done with Mr. Harper, do please send him down here. We have the task of restoration to undertake, and it will likely take a decade or more.
A couple of points if I may .... First .... Only about 20% of the American people (similar in Canada) are even paying any attention at all to what is going on and what it means for them. So very little can be accomplished anymore by talking and voting. That is means something worse is about to happen.
Next ... I don't care if people call each other 'tards' .... I don't mind ethnic jokes either. I also like it when people are allowed to fail ... fall right on their asses, because the ones who get up are better people for having got back up. Political correctness has hobbled us and multiculturalism is destroying our own western culture.
So we who lean to the right can stop pretending to be outraged when the left calls us 'retards' .... who cares? You and I were taught better as kids .... with the old sticks and stones metaphor.
Stop being politically correct by feigning disgust at mere words from the foul left. Say whatever you want and be proud that you are free to do so. If you are not free to do so, then you'd better mount up because that is what is at stake here, not whether some is calling someone else a 'retard'.
"You're Welcome, Pinko".
The GOP has blown this "shutdown" badly. Rather than seek to tweak the budget a bit or piss around with Obamacare, they should have drawn a line around actually shutting down the US government (until operating with a balanced budget), even if a sovereign default resulted. Their mantra should have been, we're not shutting down a government but halting the world's largest criminal ponzi scheme. The trauma of default might just wake up the citizenry in near catatonic stupor and tossing the country into recession is better than further enabling the pimping of the mindless into complete slavery.
Well the silver lining is that if Obamba’s hordes ever decide to let loose due to lack of freebies, GUESS whose communities and streets get to burn first?
Oh yea, by the time they spend themselves out on the Liberal “gun free, sanctuary cities” they won’t have the energy to breach middle America’s ramparts.
No that's cultural enrichment.
Ah yes... the ol' double standard... "LOOK some libtard just said tea-tard!!!! Pft... tolerant left indeed!"
That aside... some perspective:
http://qzprod.files.wordpress.com/2012/11/debt-and-gdp-main6.png?w=1024&h=603
The US debt as percentage of GDP has been higher, and it's high now due to the economic collapse that happened after Bush totally 'tarded out the economy. Given time, and hopefully the WH, Senate and House, things will be brought under control. Then you guys can totally wreck it again.
John! I missed you man! I was gonna point out how World War II was a pretty big deal and how GDP isn't an accurate gauge of value producing activities at the best of times, never mind comparing 1940 to today.. but eh there's not much point. Pistols at dawn, bitches!
And I shudder to think of what "under control" means in your vague approximation of a mind.
What makes you think Bush wasn't also a progressive, one just slightly more "conservative" than the Imperial POTUS that succeeded him?
As for GDP, that has nothing to do with the unfunded liabilities that were put into play 50 years ago that haven't a hope of being sustained into the future. The US economy is now in terminal stasis thanks to an electorate pimped into slavery, and a green theocracy that abhors anything unrelated to the service sector. Fascism in the future followed by civil war. The Fed is keeping the music playing as long as the dollar is traded as a reserve currency.
The inevitable results of unqualified franchise.... The lowest common denominator in action.
Bring back executive monarchy. I am happier to live under a King than the tyranny of petty bureaucrats with an ideology to run....
For all intents & purposes. Except for exceptional individuals. From the Judiciary to Congress, or the Senate.America has become a one party State.
The only difference between parties now is who is more radical, along with the power to invest in themselves. Like Troskites versus Leninist's.
In all else the madness of PC with multiculturalism proceeder, with some cosmetic differences to appease voters whose votes don't count for any thing.
Bush& Daddy where just smaller versions of Obama. He's going for the brass ring of First temperament POTUS of America.
Well said ofaycat!
People are a lot better off if they develop a thick skin but squawking loud and long when the human hating pinkos show their true colors (blood red) then it is fair play to jump on them, IMO. What is good for the goose is good for the gander.
The conservative right has been too tolerent and SILENT conserning the left.It's why we are in the mess we're in today.
It's time to stop being polite, while we still can.
Kte, that a tolerant leftist. You can tell because the hands are merely holding a sign with a nasty message, not holding club or knife or gun or bomb. ;-)
Really well said, ofaycat!
