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."

Lies work the best when you incorporate a little bit of truth in it….
I thought while hearing this on monday, that Rush had dealt with it quite handily, clearly free speech is more important than the flip side of this, that something you may be hearing / reading isn’t quite true…
while the other side chooses to circle the wagons:
http://dailycaller.com/2018/07/30/twitter-academics-censor-posts/
“Twitter has hired a group of academics to combat what it describes as “abuse, harassment and other types of behaviors that can detract or distort from the public conversation.”
https://www.jihadwatch.org/2018/07/twitter-hires-experts-in-islam-and-right-wing-populism-to-banish-intolerant-discourse
“This will be more Left-wing bias, and more censorship of views that dissent from the Left’s agenda, since it is certain that the “experts in Islam” that Twitter has hired are apologists who insist it is a religion of peace, not people who actually know and are willing to state what is in the Qur’an and Sunnah.”
The abiturs of, and finders of Truth are the Courts in America.. The Media who claim the right to call anyone a liar are engaged in strange behavior….Might want to look for media Collusion (Conspiracy) and that may not be protected by the 1st amendment
“The abiturs of, and finders of Truth are the Courts in America..” Ah, No. Truth is objective reality. One may or may not know the truth and free speech is the best way to uncover the truth but “Courts in America” are not a body somehow blessed with omniscience any more than an Orwellian Ministry of Truth. They have the Constitution and all they need to do is uphold it as best they can.
“The abiturs of, and finders of Truth are the Courts in America.. ”
Holy geez….we’re in trouble, then.
not much truth in the courts of America these days.
Silly leftists! They think they can control what goes on in my mind. They’re neither smart enough, nor strong enough.
PhuckfaceBook, Twatter and Instaass are for half retarded turds.
The MSM certainly wants to decide what the truth is as people push back at their Headlies.
Freedom of speech is under assault. Hate speech is very subjective and should never be confused with uttering threats. The neo-Marxists want to control speech. M103 comes to mind.

Read this article in The Star if you feel like puking.
Some interesting points on the limits of free speech vs the legal limits of ‘commercial’ speech. While much of the media is guilty of this, let me set CNN as a prime example of lying for profit while hiding behind the ‘freedom of the press’ shield.
Since CNN attract their audiences, whose numbers directly affect profits, by advertising themselves as an unbiased, quality news source, I have long wondered why such dishonest advertising is allowed. It should be easy to prove in court that these hacks have built a business model dedicated to selling a one-sided narrative, NOT dedicated to honest reporting of the facts as they claim in their promo spots. Their viewers are most definitely not receiving the same ‘product’ that CNN still regularly advertises that they are selling. But sadly, my little fantasy of CNN being held legally responsible for their lies will probably never intersect with reality for many reasons.
To be honest, I find it somewhat difficult to understand why CNN, and many of it’s talking heads, aren’t buried in an avalanche of personal defamation lawsuits right now. To that end, I think deplorables nationwide should be organizing a class-action suit aimed at all the usual suspects of the hate-mongering left. If it accomplished nothing else, it would make a powerful statement and be a strong showing of camaraderie from the ‘silent US majority’. It would also be a form of national demonstration that the Antifa types, and their hateful enablers, would be virtually powerless to disrupt. Any exploding leftist heads resulting from this lawsuit/petition/referendum would simply be an added bonus.

Oh it certainly would. It would demonstrate beyond a doubt what a bunch of cretinous fascistic hypocritical pieces of crap you are.

I have to disagree with you, CO. By careful selection of fact to only show those facts that support their narrative, they can be factually correct and also ideologically pure. Because of the ideological component, the judgement calls of personal defamation, lying-for-profit, or one-sided presentation of the facts falls under the first amendment. If they report that Trump is a 3-headed monster from Mars than that’s not factual. If they report that Exxon is destroying the world by selling fossil fuels then that’s opinion and the warmunists can bring many scientific voices to their side to explain how scientific the global circulation models are and how they show the danger of CO2 (to support that opinion).
Far better, in my opinion, to point and laugh at their absurdities.
I just tried to google the initial Manafort investigation and the decision not to proceed with an indictment, and compare that to the actual indictment, to see if any new evidence came forward to justify the present indictments.
The leftist algorithms prevented that. I tried many combinations. Nothing.
Then I learned on Hannity last night that Rosenstein was involved in the initial investigation. Again, not a peep from google.
Gotta laugh at the blue wave argument, that they’ll retake Congress and reverse the Trump agenda, while impeaching him.
Good luck with that. Do these neo-Marxists ever think things through?
Even if the Dems, as they hope, retake the House and the Senate, nothing will change. Nothing.
The impeachment goes nowhere without a 2/3 vote in the Senate, even if the House votes for it.
As far as reversing the Trump agenda, good luck again. All Trump has to do is veto the bills, which can only be overridden by a 2/3 vote in BOTH THE HOUSE AND SENATE.
It would take deep statist RINO types’ support for that. If that did happen, the USA is finished as a country because her politicians will have given the finger to the voters’ mandate.
Like most things DeMarxist, these ideas reside in their false narratives and political fantasies, but not reality.
Some also ask why Trump is picking a fight over the wall. Again, pretty simple answer: Trump wants to turn the midterms into a referendum on him and illegal immigration.
Personally if I were Trump (but I’m not) I would do the following, just for starters:
– declassify all FISA warrant documents presently hidden by Rosenstein and his cohorts.
– seize all documents related to misuse of power by Obama politicos.
– fire Rosenstein and Sessions now, bring in outsiders to clean up the deep state corruption.
– appoint a special prosecutor to look into the breaches of trust and obstruction of justice during the Obama administration.
– fold the Mueller shenanigans into that investigation, while telling him to issue his report, or go to Court, or whatever.
The DeMarxists will howl, the violent do-gooders will riot on cue, and the media will have a cow. IOW SNAFU. Let them cry.
“Then I learned on Hannity last night that Rosenstein was involved in the initial investigation. Again, not a peep from google.”
That means the algorithms are filtering out nonsense. One does not ‘learn’ from listening to Hannity shriek.
I don’t trust your algorithm either.
Two simple questions UnMe.
Is CNN, in your mind, a down the center and balanced newsroom?
Who do you ‘learn’ from?
Good posted clip. What was left out of the discussion is the sheer power imbalance between the left-wing establishment and right-wing advocacy. The left-wing establishment is far, far stronger and better organized than anything conservatives can muster. The left has the courts, police, universities, the establishment media — need I go on? So in a way the left already has a “ministry of truth” that manipulates “facts” to suit their agenda.
A case in point is the Greektown shootings. The police, the federal government, the Muslim lobbyists, and the corporate media cartel all conspired to suppress the truth that the shootings were Islamic-based terrorism. The huge power imbalance between the left and right means that the truth may never come out. The dominant left wants it this way, since they want violent Islamists to operate freely in Canada.
Perhaps the reason you’re so ‘powerless’ is because you choose to believe delusional nonsense like the notion that Greektown was an act of jihad.
Observers from the Toronto Sun point to the fact that the perp was linked to a Muslim drug gang that, the year before, was raided by police who netted many guns and a large quantity of poison. The amount of poison was so huge, observers point to a possible Islamic-based terrorist plot. The dominant media cartel censored these facts.
Yes, because ISIS claiming responsibility means nothing. Just like visits to ISIS training camps means nothing. Unless these things didn’t happen because CBC doesn’t report them?
Couldn’t help but notice that when the caller was comparing the MSM to “Big Tobacco” Rush blew a huge cloud of smoke from his cigar.
“Ministry of Truth”
“Reich Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda”.
Same thing.
Yes. Another government department. It can only be for the best.
Every power. You hand to government. Will be used. Against you. Personally. When your enemies get elected.
More government. Better government. Never the answer.
Less is the only solution.
Two days ago I made this comment on this site.

“While I approve of and support the policies of President of the USA Donald J. Trump, I become a uneasy when I see that he is being made into something mystical with cult like followers. I refuse to be drawn into that on core principles.
Hillary Clinton has her cult of followers and we all see what that has lead to.”

I do believe that the message from the above video clip (summarized starting @ the ~10:49 mark) is essentially the same.
“The abiturs of, and finders of Truth” My bad that should be FACT not truth…Lawyers never tell the Truth
“”””The Abiturs of, and finders of Fact””””
The CNN sleaze Lawyers are lying again.. Jeff Seasons CAN/MAY ignore his recusal & order a Grand jury & special Council to investigate the Mueller’s & Mitch collusion (conspiracy).. The Senate may wish to impeach Jeff… But if he would have resigned by that time….. The logical conclusion is that Jeff does justice to the rule of Law “Honor has limits”
That this is even whispered let alone joked about by Orange Peron is why the Dems have to take the House this November.
People are still talking about Mueller? That guy is still around, and still hasn’t impeached Trump.
Are Dems still keeping that candle burning? The “Mueller will save us!” thing?
Mueller has already been recycled many times in various forms as “we’ve got Trump this time, for sure” du jour.
captions were in korean or such.
click on translate and they are gibberish.
