I would love to hear more.

The silicone implant that almost became Prime Minister.

With all of Vits recent cheese posts I knew it was only a matter of time before someone cut it.

# 23 is it ?

well...i dunno...he(iggy) reminds me of gretzky....i always said to mesself.."would it kill you gretzky to take your gloves off just ONCE!"

I'm not a Canucks fan (Flames fan) but I would be seriously insulted by that. Politicians should stick with politics. Do Toronto or Ottawa fans feel included now? He cared so much about Canada, that he chose to live elsewhere most of his life. He is a temporary appointment, much like a substitute teacher. Woe to us if we are stupid enough to give him the reins of power.

With a list of motions like that, they must be going after the "NDP-aren't-far-enough-left" vote. Frighteningly, in Canada these days it could probably get them elected.

MORE LIBERAL LEFTIST MEDIA DECEPTION

Early in March, the CBC and CTV announced thet the Liberals were finally leading in popularity polls.

Harris-Decima:

Cpc: 32%
Lib: 33
Ndp: 14
Grn: 10
Blq: 9

On the same day,

Strategic Counsel:

Cpc: 35%
Lib: 31
Ndp: 16
Grn: 10
Blq: 9

Why was Strategic Counsel's findings not shown?
The stats can be see at "Nodice Elections."

I swear if I came face to face with that poser wearing a Canuck's jersey, I would smack that insipid grin right off of this face.
(Watching the game now and Vancouver is up 2 in the first period).

First off. If you're going to put up a link like "dosen't this" there should be some kind of warnings I do after all have a number of family pictures close by.
Did anyone consultate the Canucks before Iggy was allowed to contaminate their uniform?
Then again their marketing requires they sell to anything as long as it has the money.

Do they have Cat Litter for computers?

Hope my virus protection is working...

Perhaps Kevin Bieksa can run him through the boards at practice.

Warren K is a loser. He and his sensored blog are s it.

Mouse-over is your friend....

Liberal dogs going back to eat their own vomit.

Cat must have got my mouse...I didn't get a warning...

Speaking of Lying Libs...

Buried in the linked article is a rather alarming tid-bit:

Other motions passed Saturday include:

-Reducing poverty by 30 per cent and child poverty by 50 per cent within five years - another idea championed by Dion;

-Bringing back the $5-billion Kelowna Accord for aboriginals, signed in 2005 by Paul Martin's Liberal government and later scrapped by Harper;

-The creation of a national child-care program and improving home care;

-Creating a national housing policy;

-EXPANDING THE POWER OF THE CANADIAN HUMAN RIGHTS COMISSION;

-Providing incentives for alternative energy, including wind and nuclear power; and,

-Allowing gay men to donate organs.

Sry, Kate...I now see it...

BTW the 'tech' in my name is not a reference to computer technology...guess that's obvious...lol..

"Expanding the power of the Canadian Human Rights Commission;"

Now there's a barn burner.

"Liberal dogs going back to eat their own vomit."

I'll ignore bar_jebus' important bolded text.

-Reducing poverty by 30 per cent and child poverty by 50 per cent within five years

How exactly would this be defined? Or is it just a feel-good platitude/throwaway promise?

The Canucks bandwagon is officially full. There can't possibly be room after Iggy's head jumped aboard.

Two types you never want to see rise to prominence: an un-intelligent Canucks fan or an over-arrogant Iggy.

"Reducing poverty by 30 per cent and child poverty by 50 per cent within five years - another idea championed by Dion"

So do they propose increasing (legitimate) employment? or is it, well, something else?

Solang der alte Citoyen Dionky. Danke, Dionky.
You was da proof of da assininity of da Librano$.

Enter stage left, STOPIGGY.
Great Leader Atheist Iggy's 3-Year Bedtime PrayeraTory was:

There probably is no Dionky; so Bam the Dog and go to sleep.

But, in Iggy's Credo we read that Iggy believes in foregoing "foundational" garments^.
Iggy throws "God the Father" under da bus.

[More Iggy quote]"“Some people will have no difficulty thinking human beings are sacred, because they happen to believe in the existence of God the Father and believe He created Mankind in His likeness … Far better, I would argue, to forego these kinds of foundational arguments^ altogether and seek to build support for human rights on the basis of what such rights actually do for human beings.”"

CBCpravda forgets that all lieberals slam Alberta in the end after they fail to have the leader visit even once during an election .

from Crouton, Mr. Dithers and Borat Dion the closest thing they get is a flyby to critic the golden egg tarsands. and no one will ever forget Mr Trudeaus one finger salute to the west.

CBCpravda all lieberal all the time.

Shouldn't that be a Boston Bruins jersey? Or perhaps an Oxford United soccer kit?

Iggy cursed the canucks, they lost 6-3.

mid island mike.

Mangled meow-sings from an empty suit.

Hmmm, the LIbs jump on the bandwagon and all the wheels fall off - fitting.

"Providing incentives for ... nuclear power"

Typo?

Wouldn't it be closer to 13. Six years at Upper Canada, four years at U of T and two years at UBC before his return in 2006.
Anyway, Kinsella sees him as the second coming tonight so maybe there is hope.

Wow, this is rich! (Picture #2). Our favorite stumblebum demonstrates his uncanny ability of letting 'er rip from both ends simultaneously. A weak-wristed softie offset by a leg-lifting retort. We should have sound effects.

I agree with Mike! The Canucks hadn't lost a game in some time. Now Iggy comes into town, get the damned jersey (with his name on it no less!) and the Canucks lose!!!

Mere coincidence?

I say, "Get out of town, Iggy! Late tonight wouldn't be soon enough!!!"

Oh dear, Iggy couldn't even get an unanimous vote. He only got 97% of the votes and he was the only name on the ballot. OUCH!

Think about it....the LIBRANOs shoot themselves in the foot with an obtuse academic and then replace him with another.....
Then a convention endorses all the policy planks that failed earlier....
Meanwhile Iggy promises hope and change.....
Bad timing........

I heard that Iggy's sweater plans to meet with Obama's suit.

More info here on my blog, including a photo of Iggy in the jersey. Ughhh! :-(

What does a hockey jersey have to do with anything? I'm not sure why SDA considers this newsworthy.

Other motions passed Saturday include:
-Allowing gay men to donate organs.

Canada has become a Monty Python Sketch

Canada has become a Monty Python Sketch

Where's the funny though? Maybe the joke's on us.

Wouldn,t you just love to ram those 2 idiots into the boards.So only name on the ballot and could only get 97% backing.I imagine Dion voted for him Eh!

I guess the Canuck's sweater confers real Canadian status on Iggy?

O boy ...

"Allowing gay men to donate organs." -- This one deserves more scrutiny. I thought that gays were banned from organ donation because they are a high-risk group for AIDS. Is not removing the ban a victory of political correctness over public safety?

LindaL: I guess the Librano$ feel they have to get into bed with the gays. Allowing them to donate organs makes zero sense, except as a sop to the offended sensibilities of the easily offended militant gay lobby.

Public health be damned! These poor "boys" need to have their egos stroked, so dammit, if they want to donate organs, they can donate organs. You know the Librano$ new slogan? "Yes, we can!" Never doubt it.

'Never mind that many of the donated organs will be disease-ridden; 'never mind that to monitor their suitability for transplant will cost mega-bucks that could be more effectively spent elsewhere; 'never mind that the treatment of HIV/AIDS is putting a huge strain on our already compromised health care system. None of this matters when it comes to soothing the hurt feelings of the gay boys.

Obscene, really.

do they have to be dead to donate their organs or can one just request something, after testing of course?

this could be a double edged pork sword for them.

"Reducing poverty by 30 per cent and child poverty by 50 per cent within five years"

Things that reduce poverty: Finish high school, get and keep a job, get married before you have kids and then stay married.

Things you'll never hear from a politician: See above.

Reading that list of motions passed, it reminds me strongly of grade-school exercises where the class forms a parliament and solves the world's problems by voting on it.

Liberal friends, a resolution against child poverty plus a buck fifty will get you a small coffee at Starbucks. But not a latte.

Child poverty comes from adult poverty, which as Katheryn says above comes purely from STUPIDITY in this country.

Or as Kathy Shaidle is fond of saying, put the beer down and cross your legs. Maybe stay out of the bingo parlor too. In my 20's I was quite poor, but I wasn't running around fathering children I couldn't support and drinking up all my wages, so NOW I have a nice place to live.

Also not being a jerk and torquing off all my relatives didn't hurt either. People will help you out if they aren't peeved at you all the time, eh?

All in all, I have to say that Hell will freeze over before I vote for a Liberal. Y'all are dangerous retards.

So much of the Liberal policies are same old, same old. In particular, same old BS. "Reducing poverty by 30 per cent and child poverty by 50 per cent within five years" Wasn't this in the table in the Chretien years? Phony, phony, phony. A big factor here is that most people in Canada are not perpetually poor -- most make their way out of poverty (e.g. poor single mothers find a new mate, unemployed find a job, etc.) The chronically poor are those on drugs and to some degree the disabled. Would it not make more sense to address specific issues within poverty (like specific programs to help those with disabilities (I think Harper is doing this with things like the disability savings plan) -- rather than the grand "We are going to reduce poverty."

Immigrants are another "poverty" group -- at least for a certain time after arriving in Canada. They tend to stay in the "poor" category for a couple years longer then other demographics. Harper has also taken concrete steps to address some of the problems they face. I simply see the Liberals as all talk and no action -- or the wrong action.

Who by the way is going to do the reducing of poverty? The bureaucrats?? THIS is what is wrong with most government programs. They have grand visions of a perfect world and then employ ordinary civil servants to come up with ideas for programs -- and most of them are clueless.

Damn, the Canucks are cursed now. Doesn't look good, now that the leftard Fibs have jinxed them

Wassamatta U? :-) We have a Kenyan Communist President but you don't want an American Harvard leftist Prof. as PM? Do you t'ink it's easy, establishing phony bona fides?

Allowing gay men to donate organs makes perfect sense. A large number of Canadians lack access to needed life saving organ transplants. Gay men have a higher rate of HIV, but the infection rate is far from 100%. Testing allows one to determine which organs are safe or unsafe. This measure will help patients who would otherwise die.

Abe, so how many gay men are going to go rushing to the organ donor clinic to offer to donate an organ?

'Probably not that many, just as, as a proportion of the gay population, hardly any have rushed to the nearest wedding chapel to get married, even though they strong-armed the Canadian Parliament into giving them the so-called "right" to marry.

As a matter of public health policy, I don't think it's a good idea for gay men, active in the same-sex lifestyle, to donate organs. And, given that there is a much higher risk of donating a diseased organ than in the general population, why would they feel slighted by being excluded in this particular category?

The answer, I suspect, is in the appellation this self-identified group (around 3% of the pop.; Kinsey was wrong and his research long ago discredited) has chosen for itself: G(ood)A(s)Y(ou). I'm sorry, but as far as I can make out, this demand to be permitted to donate organs is more concerned with gays' hurt feelings because, in their opinion, the present policy isn't "equal" and "inclusive," rather than a concern for saving lives or public health safety.

And, yes, I'm heartily weary of the adolescent me, me, me, preoccupation of militant gays. Life isn't always "fair," especially when you continue to make risky to outright dangerous choices and then expect everyone else to make accommodations for the negative outcomes.

More self-discipline, responsibility, and accountability for one's actions wouldn't be a bad idea -- and that goes for everyone, gay or straight.

Does an organ recipient have the right to refuse an organ from a dead gay/lesbian.
Will families be told the donation is coming from a gay/lesbian. If transplant takes place, and fails, can the family sue the liberals for wrongful death. And how do the msm like their new definition, thanks to an explanation of said motion at the convention.
There were supposedly 3000 people in Vancouver for this circus, but, watching all the sessions with voting, only about 400 were in the room to start. The highest vote for any motion was 310 for. And as the day went on fewer and fewer stayed to vote. It got so bad the chairman warned they may not have a quorum and have to suspend proceedings. And considering that ever motion that was debated was only debated for 4 minutes. 2 speakers for, 2 speakers against, for 1 minute each.
If the canucks end up losing the cup, how much blame will be put on iggy and the sweater and liberals in general. Those canuck fans can all vote conservative next elecction, as payback.
Re reducing poverty, sounds great but impossible to do. When stats Canada keeps raising the threshold of what income level denotes poverty.
What was the threshold from Stats Canada when this was first brought up by liberals about 20 yrs ago. What is it today-bingo poverty cured.

Stick OFF the ice, if I ever saw one.
