In 2013 Fox News has drawn more viewers than CNN, HLN (formerly known as Headline News, or CNN2), and MSNBC combined.
A couple of weeks ago I stumbled upon the Liberal ‘raise a million,maybe get a Justin scarf campaign’.
I checked it out and found that you could enter the contest without actually giving them a penny.So I did.
Since that day, I have received e-mails from not only Justin(twice),but also Chretien, Garneau, Freeland, Paul Martin,the soon to be departed Mike Crawley, and the lesser knowns such as Christina Topp, Cherish Clarke,and Katie Telford.
That makes ten,there may be more that I deleted.
Today, I got another e-mail (alas,I didn’t win) from the Liberal team along with a copy of a handwritten thank you note from the pale Obama. The Liberal team writes, ” To our generous donors: we hope you’ll print this out and proudly display it on your fridge over the holidays. ”
Are they serious,a copied e-mail suitable for the fridge ???
Is Joe Volpe running Justin’s fundraising ???
No Quebec on the list?

Fox tells it like it is might be the main reason. But then, news staff that has beauty and brains, as well as being brave, might also help. Lea Gabrielle appears to be a great addition at FoxNews. Compare the rabid angry women at the liberal media news (?) sources.
“On her first appearance on “Shepard Smith Reporting,” Lea Gabrielle told Smith about her previous career as a as a fighter pilot and intelligence operations officer for the U.S. Navy. In addition to showing photos and video of her military career, Gabrielle recalled an emergency landing she was once forced to make: “I was coming in to land, I had my gear and my flaps down, so I was around 850 feet, and then all of a sudden my right engine basically blew up on me,” she said.”

File under “It’s Probably Nothing”:
Today Japanese PM Shinzo Abe announced a plan to spend at least 23.97 trillion yen ($232bn) over five years on expanding the Air and Sea Self-Defense Forces (hello ChiComs, sayonara Obama-san).
The plans include buying “two anti-missile destroyers, five submarines, 52 amphibious vehicles, three surveillance drones,” 17 Boeing Osprey aircraft and (_horrors!_) 28 F-35 fighter planes.
Prime Minister Abe also announced an intent to raise a company of Japanese Marines.

“Liberals visited by the ghosts of Chrétien’s past”
“We thought Adscam had been put to bed long ago, but not so. Mr. Corriveau is to appear in court in January on charges of fraud, forgery and laundering proceeds of crime. There could be more revelations about the scandal, which heavily damaged the Liberal Party, plus Chrétien-related questions of the type Prime Minister Stephen Harper has been getting about the Senate expenses scandal: “How could you not have known?””

PETITION TO THE HOUSE OF COMMONS
IN PARLIAMENT ASSEMBLED
We, the undersigned citizens of Canada draw the attention of the House to the following: THAT : as individual Citizens of Canada WE do NOT enjoy the protection of “PROPERTY RIGHTS” within the Constitution of Canada ! hence, THE LAW of Canada!
THEREFORE: Your petitioners call upon Parliament to forthwith, incorporate and entrench FOREVER , individual “PROPERTY RIGHTS” INTO THE CONSTITUTION OF CANADA.
I AM Joe Molnar and I need help!!
I intend to walk the breadth of Canada to get signatures from Canadians to have “Property Rights” entrenched into our Canadian Constitution, while I garner sufficient signatures to force the Government of the day to act on the petitioners’ behalf.
In exchange for the use of such a vehicle, I am offering to any sponsor, a 1948 Canadian 50 cent piece (scarce) in very good condition, also the only known photograph of James & Johannah Donnelly, murdered in the Lucan Ontario area in 1880 by vigilantes (Historical fact) as well as my “four leafed clover” producing patch from my back yard in Woodstock, Ontario.
In as much as I consider “Small Dead Animals” blog a Canadian conservative “Miracle”, is exactly why I am hoping to find a sponsor (via SDA) to provide a (borrowed) mobile domicile as I gather signatures to my petition to amend our Constitution for the entrenchment of individual “PROERTY RIGHTS’ into Canadian LAW!
I AM , Joseph (Joe) Molnar, and yes, I AM quite sane!

“A federal judge in Washington ruled on Monday that the bulk collection of Americans’ telephone records by the National Security Agency is likely to violate the US constitution, in the most significant legal setback for the agency since the publication of the first surveillance disclosures by the whistleblower Edward Snowden.
Judge Richard Leon declared that the mass collection of metadata probably violates the fourth amendment, which prohibits unreasonable searches and seizures, and was ‘almost Orwellian’in its scope. In a judgment replete with literary swipes against the NSA, he said James Madison, the architect of the US constitution, would be ‘aghast” at the scope of the agency’s collection of Americans’ communications data.'”
“Leon said that the mass collection of phone metadata, revealed by the Guardian in June, was “indiscriminate” and “arbitrary” in its scope. “The almost-Orwellian technology that enables the government to store and analyze the phone metadata of every telephone user in the United States is unlike anything that could have been conceived in 1979,” he wrote, referring to the year in which the US supreme court ruled on a fourth amendment case upon which the NSA now relies to justify the bulk records program.”
I like FoxNEWS also; but… CNN has an excellent show that was just re-started called “Crossfire”. It’s got a rotating cast including (on the Right) Newt Gingrich and S.E.Cupp(formerly on Fox). It runs once a week, but for my money(today), it’s the best show of it’s type.
It is a pleasure to watch S.E. Cupp crush her foes.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
