Kate on Liberal strategists:Have they not noticed Dear Leader has been reduced to a Canadian drinking game? Soon, the former [Read More]

Tracked on January 17, 2006 2:40 AM

I agree. I am starting to feel sorry for the prime minister.

Oh and Kate, I saw your piece on the CBC. Who knew decent looking females lived in Saskatchewan?

You know what's really sad. Martin isn't a nice guy, sure, but it should be Chretien up there getting the heat. Chretien dishes it, walks out at the perfect time and then leaves Bahama Paul to take it all.

Although if Chretien was hit with this stuff he probably would have assaulted the camera man.

And I was so hoping for "next to you, Angelina Jolie is a dog!"

Thanks. ;'-)

(I haven't seen the piece)

Typical of everything about this blog, this campaign...

Thanks for the "breaking news" two days late...

Back to

Awesome viewing.

Two days? I meant two weeks.
Whatever...

Altruistic, Chretien played Martin much the same way Pettigrew dumped the HRDC Scandal in the lap of Jane Stewart.

I believe in fundamentally saying 'I believe' a million friggin' times over for no other good reason than the fact that I have nothing else to say that anyone else could actually believe!

I heard someone talk about the Lloyd Robertson/Martin interview and I thought it was a joke.

"Thanks for the "breaking news" two days late...'

Wow... and here I thought Saskatchewan was only an hour or so behind.

Kate's a hottie Angelina who......No kidding about Martin on tv tonight, it was just plain sad, Im afraid he is working the sympathy vote........ and its working!

How does official oposition leader
Gillies Duceppe

Sound????

Just watched it. Does he not know that these things are vehicles to drive voters towards his "vision"? Go on TV for a free two minute ad, shore up support and perhaps grab a few new voters.

What I saw was a guy with nothing to say. No fire, no passion. He's a beaten man, and he knows it.

Worst run campaign, ever.

Martin says he will fill vacant Senate seats by Prime Ministerial appointment. It's time to fire all sitting senators and finally have some real democratic reform, it's time to have an elected senate.

i just watched the interview online. junior is like a dog in heat on the fiscal plan not having the right numbers. it's being played by all bell globemedia outlets like a cure for cancer. i'm trying to connect the dots but all i can come up with is that the document contains one table in its eight pages that is A VERY ROUGH OUTLINE for a grade eight class. why is it being sold by the libelists like it's a f*ing budget with the entire government's finance department personnel behind its making? i've not found anything on the blogosphere refuting the libelist's spin. could someone point me to something? i don't buy it but there are other wavering fools who only need a blow and their 1.78 is gone. oh, kate, btw, it's not over. save the vacation funds.

Fundamentally speaking...PMPM is fundamentally unable to proceed in any fundamentally coherent manner.

His handlers don't care about him. But his handlers are making a huge mistake. They think they can dump Martin and then rebuild the Liberal Party as it was under Chretien. But they're wrong.

People won't forget who brought us all the scandals over the last few years. The only one that can be put on Martin is the Income Trust scandal. And I think that was probably a Chretien supporter who leaked it, knowing that they could accept the results either way. But as it turned out they got their money *and* Martin.

The firearms registry, Kyoto, sponsorship scandal, Shawinigate, Industry Canada/Research Council grant scandal, Foundations scandal, Earnscliffe, Canada logo ripoff (I could go on and on) all happened under the watch of Chretien. Granted, Martin may have been finance minister, but Chretien was "the boss".

If the CPC and Harper succeed in uncovering and investigating all the past corruption by the Liberal Party there will be no party left to rebuild. And who would want to vote for them? Oh, I forgot.

What's an "Angelina Jolie"? It's not to come in unless it's housebroken. I simply can't keep up the new Euro breeds popping up all the time. I mean Vizla sounds like a soft drink. "New Sugar Free Vizla in the flatcoated can."

Ch. Kate McMillan; Best In Show.

Just watched French CBC, an entire segment devoted to McKenna, Manley, Tobin, Bevilacqua, Rae etc. You're right, this is pretty much over.

Astute political observations. Much enjoyed.

In Canada, has it become hokey to be anti-American yet? I just want you Canadians to know that as an American - I never stopped loving you, even though you burned the Stars and Stripes from Vancouver to Scotia. I know it was mostly for effect and for TV crews needin' angry pinko fuel and enough Molsons make anyone feel radical, but, I mean, burnin' Old Glory is so yester-hippie-protestish. Americans have been it doing since the Sixties for chrissakes. The lack of originality and carnality was so un-Gordon Downie-esque. He's the real pony show you know, and I love 'em so. Please tell Gordy-baby I said "ello" and ask him to stop in Miami and get some needed sun.

Oh yeah, I was asked to stop in and say "hi!" by Apache at T.H.E. How "Hi!", he didn't say. 2 arfs and a yoot-yoot! I win!

The man just talks and nobody gives a hoot because they don,t beleive him ,I can,t understand why Sask wont get rid of Goodale

Watched the interview, Kate.
You looked younger, prettier than your picture on the blog. You came across demure and humble.
I liked it. Little do tv audiences who do not frequent blogs know what a good writer and commentator you are!
They'll find out now! :-)

"fundamentally" four times but only one "the fact is".

Heard PMPM today on the radio, and his statement was reported to be "it's not over yet, and he says he will keep his job". Hmmmm... just bravado? or is the sneaky b*stard sitting on something, waiting till last minute to throw the grenade?
No need to worry folks. The earthquake felt this morning in BC was finally attributed to the wheels falling off PMPM's wagon as he pulled up for his speech with the Vancouver business community :P

I saw the interview, and you could see it was almost painful for Lloyd Robertson at times. I think Paul needs a nice long rest.
By the way - Is there any place I can access Kate's bit on CBC?

When Robertson was grilling Martin on his non-actions re the income trust scandal, Martin kept trying to shrug it off as just an attack by the opposition and actually said of the RCMP "when they're asked by the opposition to do something, they'll do it."

Fundamentally, Martin no longer has a grasp of the fundamentals.

I'm with RW - I must have missed it somehow (probably the dog). Roughly how far into the newscast?

Angelina Jolie is an ultra-scary moonbat extremist piece of dung.

Let's not utter that little shit's name, please.

I better be specific: I say that about Angelina Jolie due to her views: she's anti-Semitic, anti-Israel and she praised the Intifada.

There's plenty of bizarre stuff about Ms. Jolie, but she's just not worth the effort.

I don't care how hot she might look. Her personality is uglier than a puddle of vomit, as far as I'm considered. With a personality like that, the little fireman would wither up as in freezing H2O.

' "fundamentally" four times but only one "the fact is" ' = 4 beers + 1 shot of Tequila.

"Fundamentally", Paul Martin is a jackass.
This dithering, blundering idiot cannot form a cohesive sentence anymore. One can only hope he does not form a government of any sort. He's at a point now, where he sounds a lot like his predecessor, Jean Cretin (another I loath and despise).

Credit to where credit is due:
Kate, for this great blog
PM, for the word fundamental.
Oscar Leroy, for the word jackass.

Question for you guys:

At the beginning of the campaign, I would have been thrilled to pieces to find out the Conservatives might get a minority government. I was just too worried that the Liberals wouldn't die.

Now a majority is on the horizon, and we've all been talking about it for about 10 days now.

So here's the question: if a majority doesn't materialize, will we be disappointed? Or will we remember our previous goals? Personally, I'm still trying to be happy with 137 on the UBC market.

This just in:
Rick Mercer is not a tool of the Liberal Party.
Rick Mercer is simply a tool.Period.

the interview is up a CTV

http://www.ctv.ca/ctvnews

midway down the page, right side, look for Paulie's picture

For those of us not under the direct influence of mother corp (CBC), just what program was Kate on and where is it hidden in the CBC website? Inquiring minds want to know.

Still waiting for Elections Canader to send me my mail-in ballot BTW.

All you people had better not get too cocky. When it's time to actualy put the X on the ballot, how many Ontario & Maritime voters will actually vote for a Western Party??

I've never seen anyone knock all three wheels off a prime minister' tricycle with a single question before. And it wasn't even a hard question.
I think the word 'ad' must be some kind of secret trigger.

Oh and Don. It's feeding time.
You can hardly call the CPC a western party anymore as I'm sure a lot of Albertan MPs are going to find out soon. While PMPM has been out with his campaign of carpet-bombing divisive BS, Harper has spent a campaign re-building something. Have you been watching?

Canadian Sentinnel is an ultra-scary moonbat extremist piece of dung. Hmmm, that's got a nice ring to it.

Paul Martin at a weekend Liberano Love In was pulling pints at a local pub in Guelph ON. He was telling anyone who would listen political stories of when he used to be Prime Minister.

This is the same man that balanced the budget 8 times and is now being royally screwed by John Cretin the former Emperor of Canada.

Given the past exploits of the Liberals, it is possible Paulie is feeling the hot breath of the hounds on the back of his neck. Keeping the closet door shut was hard enough when the Liberals ran the government, just look at Adscam. With mean ol' Conservatives running the show there's going to be skeletons falling out all over the floor.

Maybe there's a special skeleton with Paulie's name on it? That'd be enough to make him act funny on TV I bet.

You did a very good interview on CBC last night Kate. Very articulate and well spoken. I've got to believe, that the CBC has finally seen the lite on the power of the blogs.

PMPM was a pitiful quiver mass, in that interview with LLoyd Robertson. I think he knows the door is about to slam in his face on Jan 23rd

Martin began one of his "answers" with this beauty:

"Lookit, fundamentally, lookit..."

A new cocky Stephen "lets paint Atlantic Canada blue" Harper is starting to make an appearance.

This is going to be good!

Kate, how do you handle all the praise and compliments without your head exploding?

RCMP demotes officer over political bid

'Valuable' counter-terrorism agent transferred out of elite unit after trying for Tory nomination

Gary Dimmock, The Ottawa Citizen
Published: Tuesday, January 17, 2006

An RCMP counter-terrorism agent, once commended for tracking and arresting a man who had threatened Prime Minister Paul Martin and U.S. President George W. Bush, now finds himself removed from national security detail because of his "political affiliation," the Citizen has learned.

Internal RCMP documents show that Const. Peter Merrifield, who unsuccessfully sought the Conservative nomination in Barrie, Ont., in May 2005, was told months later that it "would be in the best interest of the RCMP ... if he was assigned to other duties, not related to politics."

In October, six months after Const. Merrifield sought the nomination and one month after a glowing performance evaluation that noted his "tireless ambition," a senior Mountie, Supt. Marc Proulx, wrote that the elite counter-terrorism agent had to be transferred from the force's threat-assessment unit.

Supt. Proulx said he was "convinced" the constable could no longer work in the unit because his political aspirations had landed him in a potential conflict of interest. The threat assessment unit tracks reported risks against foreign and domestic government officials, visiting dignitaries, VIPs, federal politicians and the prime minister.

"His political aspirations," wrote Supt. Proulx, "have been made very public and any incident with a VIP could bring questions to the TA (threat assessment) and ultimately place the RCMP ... in a position of potential or perceived conflict of interest."

In the last line of his memo, Supt. Proulx noted that Const. Merrifield was a "valuable" member of the national police force.

Const. Merrifield was first demoted to serve in the force's Ontario criminal intelligence branch, but the Citizen has since learned that he will be transferred to the national force's customs unit, which mainly tracks illegal cigarettes and alcohol.

Until he was stripped of his national security files, Const. Merrifield was the lead investigator tracking scores of threats against Belinda Stronach when she defected to the Liberal party from the Conservatives to become a cabinet minster. >>>

AS much as mainstream journalists must hate to admit Harper is a better choice for leader of Canada, I suspect that each one individually has concluded that Martin is unstable and unable to hold any conviction any longer than the last person he spoke with.
Not exactly the kind of leadership that a country can depend on in a time when terrorists may well be about to go nuclear on the world stage. Their (MSM) Liberal biases not withstanding, have decided to let Martin self-destruct for the good of the country.

On the CBC piece Kate, I just caught the last bit.
I am not a stammering Kathleen Petty viewer ordinarily, was just channel surfing.

'Handling' our youth:

...An 11-year-old girl, representing Belinda Stronach, wore a red turtleneck. The Conservative candidate dressed in blue. And the boy standing in for the Progressive Canadian Party's Dorian Baxter, an Elvis impersonator, sported a wig with sideburns.

The Grade 5 students at Lester B. Pearson Public School in Aurora, just north of Toronto, turned their classroom into a theatre yesterday for a mock election. The candidates debated education and child-care issues in front of their classmates, and in the end, it was a close race: The Liberals won over the New Democrats by three votes. The Conservatives trailed closely behind...

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/LAC.20060117.SMARTSCHOOLS17/BNPrint/theglobeandmail/Idx

maz2...What's your point? Or is this for all the cons to nod and cackle approvingly?

"When it's time to actualy put the X on the ballot, how many Ontario & Maritime voters will actually vote for a Western Party??"

Are Liberals still prepared to play regions against each other with Canadian voters? Conversely, how many Canadians would waste a vote on a Toronto party?

re the demotion of Cst. Merrifield--did it escape the notice of Supt. Prolux that his leader, Commissioner Zacharrdelli, is in the pocket of the Liberals? If Proloux had been honest he would have admitted that Merrifield was demoted because he supported the 'wrong' party!
This announcement does give one reason to hope though--all the RCMP are not Liberal toadies--some, like Merrifield, have a brain and use it.

I suspect Mr. Harper has a good idea how much money the Libs have squirreled away in 'foundations' and such. Not to mention the discretionary funding which issues grants to all manner of special interest group.

I propose the Tories set up a penal colony on Hans Island specifically for the Librano$. That would take care of prison costs, and deal with the issue of foreign occupation/ownership in one fell swoop. Really. The Australia of Canada. Hans Island. In this country. I'm not making this up.

Two reasons the liberals are losing touch.

-1- They have become a cult of personality.
-2- They are of the opinion that people are not as smart as they are.

These two points are well illustrated by the interview. The liberal campaign has been based on making it a contest of personalities, not policy. Thats why every response the liberals give, every new announcement they make, every advert they launch, every press release is premised on what Stephen Harper is going to do. Thats bad because as we've seen Harper already had stated what he would and would not do, so it looked and sounded like false accusations. Worse, it didn't tell the voter what the liberals would do, or it reminded them what they haven't done in 12 years.
To the second point, when asked a question, does Martin think its a good idea to either pose a question to the interviewer or give the interviewer the impression that they just don't understand what he said? Constantly saying "let me explain", "what you have to understand", "let me be clear" or the worst "fundementally", is not only an insult to the questioner it presents a condesending attitude to viewers.
Its saying that parents are incapable of raising their own kids, people are incapable of spending their own money, law abiding citizens can't be trusted, there is a culture of entitlement for those that know the right people and if your not liberal you're not Canadian.

Martin displayed it all during that interview, and a lot of people are getting sick of hearing thesame old cliche ridden phrases over and over again.

Saw on the TV this morning Martin is now appealing to NDP voters to join him to defeat the Conservatives. This has all the sincerity of an abusive boyfriend saying "c'mon baby, you know I didn't mean to hit you - its just that... well you make me so mad sometimes..."

Ron

How do you manage to type with your head that far up your butt?

Iron Lady: Great idea.

Then we can tell the Danes that the island's theirs.

IF they keep the occupants.

"When it's time to actualy put the X on the ballot, how many Ontario & Maritime voters will actually vote for a Western Party??"

Already did so in the AP.

:)

I didn't see the Robertson interview, but I did see the one he did with Don Martin on CBC's Politics last night. I imagined drinking each time he said "fundamental", "fact", or "values", and realized I'd have been dead of alcohol poisoning trying to keep up with him.

At one point I yelled at the screen, "It's a difference in POLICY, not a difference in VALUES!" Labelling every little difference between his policies and Harper's policies as a "fundamental (*glug*) difference in values (*glug*)" is getting to be downright contemptuous. I don't think I've ever wanted to see a politician out of power as much as PMPM -- not even "Da Boss". At least he was good for a few laughs.

It's not over until the poll's are counted.
I just don't trust those thieves not to pull
something out of the hat at the last minute,
or some cheap stunt.

I already voted. Now I keep my fiongers
crossed ....

Did anyone else notice that he almost said "wake up" instead of "walk away from child day care" ?

Twice.

It is over. Dithers doesn't even believe himself anymore.

The media vultures are tearing at the flesh.

Is Kate's interview on the local Regina broadcast? because I'm not finding it on the national one.

I dunno. I'm guessing that the Liberals are throwing the election. In the days afterward, look for many, many senior people to leave the country "for a vacation."

I wonder how many of those vacation spots will have extradition treaties with Canada. Not many, I suspect.

I think they're throwing it so they can get out and away before the seriously scary stuff in the various scandals is found or becomes well known.

Justathought.

do they leave on Scooter Brisons relocation fund????. and does pettigrew take his chauffeur???

You know it is about to be BS whenever you hear the words "in fact..." from Mr Dithers.

"In fact Mr Harper believes in a fend-for-yourself Canada"??? No, Paul, that's not a 'fact'; that's an unethical misrepresentation of your opponent's position in a most despicable way.

Why has Martin never been challenged by the press on what the definition of the word 'fact' means?

Did anyone see the Paul Martin interview on Global National? Kevin Newman,really disappointed me, I thought for sure he was going to "hit hard" with his questions but instead treated Martin with "kidgloves".
I expected more from Global National and Kevin Newman.

Just like Dithers is programmed to self-destruct whenever the word 'ad' comes up in any form: ADvertising firms, attack ADs, ADscam, ADdition; Canadians has been programmed to stop listening whenever we hear the words fundamentally, in fact or values.
PMPM has gone from savior to democratic deficit to walking parody of himself over the course of the last few weeks.

"No proof that there had been , in fact no evidence that there had been, any leak what so ever, let alone that anybody had been involved in it... gutteral chokes on words sound"

Fat Paulie

"...'Valuable' counter-terrorism agent transferred out of elite unit after trying for Tory nomination..."

Perhaps there were other reasons for deciding upon a transfer (if this is the same individual):

The other side of the Elmasry Affair
..."He restated his position several times during the show.) Another panelist, “terrorism consultant” Peter Merrifield, likewise declared from “a tactical standpoint“....

Don, your one way ticket to the West Elsemere Penal Colony Association's Prison Farm Ice Cube Factory has been processed and is available for the next departure, where you can join the myriad other Lie-beral's out there in the cold unforgiving wilderness.
The Arctic Ocean is whipping up storm force winds of change, which will sweep down over the entire country on January 23rd, blowing the Lie-beral's away and lifting the darkness that has plagued this good land.

It is over. Dithers doesn't even believe himself anymore.

I don't think he ever did - and therein lies one of his greatest faults. Some people go on and on about the dangers of ideologues, but as Martin shows there's little to recommend spineless 'pragmatism' either.

Since Paul Martin has been on the West Coast for two days now.. I do not trust what he is up to when the cameras aren't rolling.
Already has been reported that the NDP have been approached to drop their campaigns and join the liberals, endorsing the liberal candidate in their ridings. Svend, Libby and others have all said they have been approached.
With the scandal that took place with fed libs 'buying' lib memberships with cash and recording phony memberships, I have no doubt other chicanery is afoot.

I won't feel easy until I see the results.
Even then....
I remember Deborah Gray years and years ago in an interview saying something along the lines of: you can never trust the liberals. They always do something questionable... just know they did something, you just don't know what or how!'

Iron Lady, Robo, Bruce.

Alright, no bloody Libranos are going to contaminate HANS ISLAND!!!

We already have enough trouble with those "Vikings at heart" Danes.

Besides this is an important intelligence gathering facility. West Ellemere Island Penal Colony is a much better location.

And of course any meddling up here will interfere with our annual Christmas Operations.

I have stated numerous times that one major factor in the CPC lead was that the usual sycophant MSM has dropped it's lockstep promotion/apologetic damage control for Martin and his retinue in the Liberal party.

I do not believe that these 4th estate potentates have relnquished their king-maker sycophant roles and had a mass cathartic shift to embrace Harper style democratic populism....I believe they just got sick of being lied to and fed crap...they feel used. The MSM's credibility was on the line and the Martin regime has fouled up so openly and badly that apologising for this rank coruption and ineptitude is not only embarassing to the MSM but threatens what little credibility they have left with the public.

Robertson/Oliver et al in the Trudeaupian MSM may be liberals but they're kafkaesque idealistic liberals and I think it has just dawned on them they have been scammed by the Dithers damage control cover up machine...nothing is more vengful than a blind idealist who realizes he was lied to, used and led to defeat by a liberal leader.

I noticed Chretien got the same treatment before he was forced to go into hiding before his baggage became an embarassment that the sycophant MSM could no longer hide.

The Knives are out for the Dithering one and after he loses on Monday he won't have the political life span of an outed Quaker at a gay youth rally. There will be a leadership change within weeks of the loss.

"Fend for yourself Canada"...like that's a bad thing?

Last time I heard, independence, resourcefulness and self-sufficiency were virtues.

Not according to the statist parties, I suppose....

greg...The same way all you cons do it with your heads up Harper's butt.

evilprincessweasel...None of those things you've mentioned are virtues, traits maybe.

I have watched the interview several times and I still can't figure out what he was babbling on about, all over the roadmap. also Goodale was on Duffy with Flaherity on the number's, Goodale would'nt shut up long enough for Duffy to get in their, blah,blah,blahblah, Now i know where that Smith get's it from when she is on CPAC. Blah,blah etc... like the eveready rabitt it keeps on going & going & going.......

I don't know about most of the guys here but:

Given a choice in a "win a date with" contest between Angelina or Kate, I'd certainly choose Kate.

No question. No hesitation.

Poor Kate. My conversation might bore her silly, but at least I can cook decently, so the evening wouldn't be a total loss.

Ron and Don, very witty, as always.

I'm so LOL!

I think, however, that you should be helping Paulie and the Cretch prepare their post-regime criminal defense just in case... just in case... rather than wasting time trying to toss poo at us.

But go ahead. We love a good laugh!

Greg: here is a bar of soap >> - if you can't take a troll down with a clean shot, shut up and let someone else take care of it

Ron: rising to Greg's level? Aim higher...

BTW, now that I see it's okay to do so, I'll say what I've always wanted to but held back out of respect:

In addition to being extraordinarily smart, Kate's also a hot babe! And conservative too!

Back to the Robertson/Martin interview - what had me rolling on the floor was the way it ended - Lloyd heard a voice in his ear, turned away from Martin with body language that said "I don't need to hear this annoying drivel", and then turned back to Martin with a "Thank you Mr. Prime Minister" that couldn't have been less curt or sincere. The fleeting look on Martin's face when he realized the utter disrespect he had been shown and that there was *absolutely nothing* he could do about it - as MasterCard says, "priceless".

Mike R., I take it you don't live on the East Coast. Here it's moonbat territory. Ironic, since we Tories are suddenly popular here again...

Maybe I should actually go to the local Conservative meetings. Maybe then I'll meet some smart, hot Conservative ladies? Had to work when Mr. H. was here yesterday (boy, did everyone in Canada suddenly become aware of the existence of a little old city called Saint John because of his visit... see, Saint John, Harper's good for the city! Paul Zed never did anything but throw cash at us and claim it meant jack shit).

During the last debate, we were playing pool, and tried the "fundamental" tequila shooter game, don't bother, you won't make the first half hour....
