Six Christmas Wishes

Dr. Dawg tagged me for this;

[T]hree things I want for Christmas, three things I don’t want, and tag five others, who I am sure have nothing better to do.

It’s a little late to tag five others, so I’ll pass on that. And I’m still thinking about the three wants and don’t wants. If I get time, I’ll add those later.
In the meanwhile, I’ll open the question up to you. Three things you want for Christmas and three things you don’t – the comments are open.
Update: Well, here goes.
Things I want – one big thing, one personal thing and one frivilous thing;
1. For our troops and their allies in Afghanistan and Iraq to return home in victory and honour.
2. For Sharky to recover from the emergency surgery he underwent Thursday.
3. A pony.
Things I don’t want;
1. Liberals with any connection to the Librano family to come anywhere near the levers of power. By default, that includes Citoyen “Son Of Chretien” Dion.
2. More snow this winter.
3. Another late night phone call from a sobbing Robert McClelland begging me for a link.
Not very profound, I know. But, it’s Christmas eve and I’ve got better things to do than blog. So do you!

  6. Thomas Walkom (TO Star) wrote that the Canadian Wheat Board is “one of the grand national institutions that has helped define this country.” This, despite the fact that it is not ‘national.’ However, he may be partially right in the way it has defined the Liberal/lefts ability to squash freedom of choice, especially in the west.
    A letter published in the Star said: “We hear arguments that the fighting Canadian troops are doing in Afghanistan is necessary, but has Canada tried all peaceful means of reaching a settlement? Agreement on the truth was once sought from the greater arts of grammar, logic and rhetoric. We do maintain many departments of philosophy, English and other languages and literatures. How many members of these have been sent to Afghanistan to convince our enemies of the wrongness of their cause? – Alan E. Dunne, Peterborough

    What I want for Christmas:

    2. News reports that ask someone intelligent about their assessment of a new government program or policy (instead of someone far left of the NDP)
    3. Acknowledgement from some of the “guests” on this and other blogs that while they offer criticism of every conservative endeavour since the dawn of time, they themselves offer absolutely no alternatives that have any hope of success in solving anyone’s problems
    What I don’t want for Christmas are comments or opinion from:
    1. Jack Layton
    2. George Clooney
    3. Anyone from The View
    Cheers

  8. Hoping for;
    [1] Free-World awareness of mid-eastern training camps exporting terrorists to democratic countries and the full gravity of how every freedom we value is at risk.
    [2] Full and growing support for Nato troops who are our only hope for not losing the freedom and fair democracies we seem to take for granted.
    [3]. The Canadian voting public majority to remember that the Liberal Party of Canada did defraud us of Billion$ of our public money and to insist on reparations and justice before any voting support at all.
    Against;
    [1] Political Correctness. For the public to understand that covered faces only encourage stealth and criminal acts against us and our democratic institutions. No burkahs or veils in public.
    [2] The Current * United Nations * for world conflict resolution, but for a new * United Democratic Nations * made up of democratic and fair government countries.
    [3] The freedom of institutions, [Muslim or otherwise], to teach criminal methods of government overthrow in North America. = TG

  14. @ Dante:
    Don’t worry time flies so quickly that while I remember those three wishes of yours, I wish I had savoured them more… time just seems to roll by so quickly now.
    But don’t worry, when you get into Med School they’ll be many more institutions specifically for Med Students (that claim to speak for all medical students because we docs are oh so socialistic) that like the CFS, waste your medical school tuition.
    Wishes:
    1. Peace Democracy and Capitalism for all.
    2. Conservative Majority.
    3. Justin Trudeau to run for election but get rejected.
    Don’t Want Wishes:
    1. More MSM BS that makes them even more a tragety. (We all love Kate but she shouldn’t have to do their jobs).
    2. Spoonfed visions from the CBC.
    3. No child-care.

  15. I want:
    1- safe and successful battle for our troops

    1- another trudeau in politics
    2- more of the same liberal bias in media

    I’ll tack on another want, just for fun and cuz I’m greedy – the continued success of SDA. Thanks, Kate, Merry Christmas to you and everyone.

  16. okanagan:
    One of the folks on the View, the young blonde one, is a Republican. That she can tolerate the rest of those blowhards, is astonishing.
    Wants:
    – For law and order to be taken seriously in society, especially Toronto.
    – For people to realize how corrupt the Liberals are.
    – For educational institutions to be true non-judgemental, non-ideologically based centres of learning.
    Don’t wants:
    – A McGuinty second term. (Yes, I know this would mean John Tory, but he’s less dishonest)
    – A Boisclair first term in Quebec.
    – Dion as PM.

  17. I never have any “don’t wants” for Christmas. I was blessed with a super childhood and a wonderful marriage for as long as it lasted (and no, that’s not a contradiction), so herewith my six wants (abridged):
    1) Since this is Kate’s home, I wish for her to have a magnificent Christmas, full of peace, joy and the serenity that comes from a day well and truly lived;
    2) I want all of you to know the same, wherever you are, whoever you are, whatever you believe. Even Jeff, and Bob, and BCL and all of the rest whom God bent a little getting them going, McLelland too;
    3) I want all of our boys and girls stationed around the world to be at rest, safe and if not happy, at least content in the magnitude of their gifts to us;
    4) I want their families and loved ones to have the comfort of knowing they’re safe tonight, and pleasure of their voices, even a picture, from wherever they are, and for them to be able to wish their kids “Merry Christmas” this Christmas Eve.
    5) I want all of you to reach out to a friend or family and hold them close, and tell them you love them – those who cannot, or have no one close can attest to the depth that loneliness can reach at this time of the year;
    6) I want Jack Layton to be given a spine, so that he too, may know what real peace means, and for Stephane to get a job, a real one, so that he may know what life truly means for most Canadians.
    I frequently don’t get what I want for Christmas, but I’ll be satisfied if even one or two of the above come to pass, and I’ll be back next year, God willing, for the rest…
    Merry Christmas, all.

  18. Want:
    -An end to Iran’s nuclear weapons program
    -An end to the threat from Islamic extremism in Pakistan
    -China and Russia moving towards liberal (in the classical sense) democracy.
    None of these will happen.
    Do not want:
    -A major Jihadi terrorist attack
    -The collapse of GM or Ford
    -The end of the Canadian Conservative government.
    Any of these might happen.

    See you all next year

    2. For our Forces and their Allies to get the job done in Afgahnistan with the least loss of life and injury to the good guys and gals. For the bad guys to get to their heaven and find the bullet that killed them was dipped in pig blood and their seventy virgins are Wendy Cukier clones.
    3. For the Justice system to wake up and start sending Criminals to jail and not give them a ‘Get out of jail early card’, upon thier conviction.

    and Hadith advise Muslims to do.
    2. For our men and women to emerge victorious
    from Afghanistan and come home safe and sound.

    achieve a huge majority in the next election.
    Don’t want:

    any office in Canada.
    3. The CBC and MSM to continue the treasonous
    broadcasting and new presentations.
    I too will take a fourth wish and that is the Kate and the SDA expands yet again and that more Canadians get exposed to more thoughtful reporting and less creation of news.

    3) I do not want Libs and/or Dippers getting away with tagging Conservatives as rednecks and Nazis. Keep calling their bluff Kate. They are full of it and you demonstrate that every day.
    And I hope you get all of your wishes too Kate. The pony is exquisite. And I can relate to the no more snow wish. We are buried again (and have been since Halloween). If I get a fourth wish it is to get the heck out of here soon for a little fun in the sun. Maybe go to The World of Concrete Trade Show in Las Vegas (and for all you ladies there will be over 70,000 men with jobs there. lol). Merry Xmas Kate and best wishes to your family too.
