All morning, Rawlco Radio's CKOM has been playing hourly newscasts by David Kirton. His reporting is often tainted by editorial comment; this morning he's characterizing Conservative Jason Kenney's remarks that gays have always had the right to marry in this way;
"Jason Kenney MOCKED same sex marriage...."

Give him time, I'm sure he could come up with memos proving the mocking.
Posted by: Jay at February 15, 2005 10:23 AMI watched Petey Mansbridge tell us that Kenney's remarks were bigoted and mean-spirited. Then I saw the video and thought "is that all?"
More b.s. from the CBC, the official organ of the Liberal Party of Canada.
Posted by: Mississauga Matt at February 15, 2005 10:51 AMThe so-called marriage issue needs to be mocked, ridiculed, satirised, & etc., until it dies.
Mock on, Jason Kenney. Ridicule the so-called issue until it crawls back to its lair.
Ridicule is the best method for dealing with this left/Liberal agenda.
Posted by: maz2 at February 15, 2005 11:35 AMIs Kenney still Canada's most famous virgin?Count on that being brought up anytime he mentions marriage,gays, or other hot button issues.Acccompanied with all knowing snickers and nodding heads.It won't make any sense, but it won't have to.
Posted by: howie meeker at February 15, 2005 11:41 AMIf we're going to give people hell for mocking marriage, would someone PLEASE talk to Larry King, Liz Taylor, and Britney Spears about the joke they've helped turn hetero marriage into?

Why do the stupid marriage tricks of the Larrys, Lizzies and Britneys inform your view as to the state of marriage? They are the extreme and statistically insignificant exception, not the rule. For every Larry, Liz or Britney, there are a thousand couples to whom marriage has brought strength, trust, commitment and other social positives to the ultimate betterment of society.
This is not to suggest marriage is as healthy an institution as it could be - it obviously is not. However, it is also far from ceasing to be a powerful contributor to social harmony. The acrimony the present debate over SS"M" has generated is all the evidence you need that it remains a vitally important institution to most Canadians.
