Say It Isn’t So, Joe!

This isn’t entirely fair;

“Jack Layton is trending. One of Canada’s most beloved politicians. As Biden butchers his dying words left to us,” wrote one left-wing trans activist, who deleted the tweet after the American right started sharing it.

He was only reading what was on the teleprompter. And Layton’s words weren’t what you’d describe as a wellspring of political originality.

  1. I lived in Toronto from 1977 to 2001. Jack Layton and his wife, Olivia Chow, were grifters, not quite “world class” grifters like Handbag Harry and the Duchess, but grifters nevertheless. Under their left wing leadership on Toronto’s city council, Toronto drifted more and more to the Left. I am very happy that I returned to the West in 2001.

    1. Fortunately for you Canadians up North, you can migrate to safety in the West. Here in the U.S., the Left has been infiltrating conservative Red states since the Obama era. Nevada went from Red to Purple and now Blue. Here in Ohio, once a solid conservative Red state is at best a Purple state.
      Unfortunately, China’s coronavirus biological weapon hit the U.S. hard.
      Fortunately, the DNC nominated Clueless Joe Biden and Legs Up Kamala Harris.
      Donald Trump is a LEGEND!

  2. Remember media prattling about how Canadians wanted to have a drink with jack layton?
    One night I was walking through Cabbage town area, layton and an aide were just ahead of me. And we all had to stop for the light – there i am on a corner with those two, and three strange guys passing around a bottle of whiskey.
    I guess we all could have had a drink with jack, although I don’t think those guys would have passed the whiskey….they were keeping a tight grip on that jug and a close eye on each pull.

  3. Any time I get this, “We all have to love each other” hypocrisy from lefties, I just ask them, great, are you going to start saying nice things about conservatives, about Donald Trump, about Republicans, about oil field workers, about business people, about Christians, . . . ? I invariably get that coughing, “huh, huh” thing they do when they’ve been caught in a lie.

    1. They have a deep love for all humanity. Which means that because they don’t love those with whom they disagree, those with whom they disagree must not be human. That’s how they can reconcile cattle cars and re-education camps.

      1. well c_minor, the dutch, who were quite “religious” in the 30T’s and 40T’s, were also the most prolific at turning Jews in for cattle car rides, so there’e that. And yes I am form that country. Thumpers will liberal!!

  4. ““Jack Layton is trending. One of Canada’s most beloved politicians.” – Maybe among massage parlour attendants, not so much the rest of us.

  5. No it wasn’t. If I had a dime for every time I heard or read that kind of pap I would have retired somewhere sane long ago.

    And it doesn’t work.

    It’s been said that if you want to convince someone you’re the good guy, be the good guy, and then speak naturally.

    That’s all President Trump has ever done.

    The president doesn’t use teleprompters if he has any choice. When allowed to, the president talks like a normal person, like his hearers’ parents or grandparents, the ones who worked all their lives, believed in God and loved America and their children.

    It works every time. Anybody who tells you Donald Trump is an appalling public speaker is either a liar or has never heard him speak.

    1. S G, the only sane place to retire is somewhere warm with no income tax and lots of rum, cheap, served by sensible people who drink the rum as well.

  6. It’s banal tripe from a very small well. Of course numerous people will come up with the same treacle. If zombies were just a wee bit more sentimental and verbose they would say stuff like that instead of “ braaaaaains “.
    Then they would eat your brain.

  7. Did anyone catch the subtext here?
    Layton, we are told, penned that letter just before he succumbed to an illness his campaign kept secret during an election.

    Election, check.
    Speech that appears to have been lifted from a left wing political leader on his death bed. Check.
    Questions about said leaders health being hidden by the democrat campaign. Check.

    Here’s a question none dare ask. If Biden, heaven forbid, passes on prior to Election Day, who does the nomination fall to?
    The second place finisher or Biden’s running mate?

    1. Re: Your last question:
      Bet Hillary Clinton would step in with Harris still as VP. She’d say it was protocol. (true or not)
      Kamala is much younger so she can always run for POTUS after she has VP under her belt.

      (Did she [KH] get a face lift or an eye job lately? Looks like it. Suddenly the eye bags disappeared. She looks, as they say in the biz, “rested” and “fresh”)

      ( So does HRC with the copycat hairstyle as KH)

      (Kenji would have a fit if HRC came in as POTUS and won.
      Xi = happy)

      1. I’ve been predicting Michelle for the past year. Still am. They did it in New Jersey-substituted a candidate 28 days before the election when their candidate was indicted, they’ll do it again.

    2. The Constitution dictates succession, not political parties….
      Once Joe is on the Ballot, said ballot can’t be changed…. If joe is elected, but dead….KH would take his place. if KH was unable to be sworn in as President (disqualified)….The HOUSE LEADER (Nancy the Prune) would become President….

  8. Joe is a known liar and plagiarist. He probably was too much of a cheapo to pay for good speech writers who are in tune with leftist propaganda.

  9. Clueless Joe stealing from the Dippers?
    How Liberal is that?
    Canada’s very own Empty Gift Box Wrapped With A Bow aka Blackiesox surely has some apropos base marxist lies worth appropriating.
    I suppose though, Blackiesox’s “speeches” , like the Canadian Media commentary, would be more conducive to elections in a country like China.

    Far Left is it? A term seldom heard(like Adscam) in our unbiased, non partisan Media. Even when describing China. Unlike Far Right. Which is used by the Canadian Media regularly to describe anyone who isn’t kissing Mo’s and Mao’s ass. As far as we can tell, Trudeau fellation is still voluntary by the Canadian Media, but noticeably widespread.

  10. NDP commies are so stupid they really believe Jack Layton didn’t (did not ) rip off an empty Oprah boilerplate, throw away, nothingness like that.

  11. The same Jack who was caught getting more than the kinks worked out? At least his bicycle ride of shame was eco friendly as he made his getaway.

    1. Unlike Jack I don’t think Joe will be taking a bicycle down to the local whore house to sample their offerings.
      While Joe’s sense of smell remains good i get the impression his sex drive might not be what it once was.
