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."

And that excuses ACORN how, exactly?
At some point, Beck will throw out the name Wade Rathke.
He kinda danced around it on today’s show when he made the New Orleans connection between ACORN and the SEIU. Beck said both organizations had offices in the same New Orleans building.
You could google Rathke’s name and it would show you that he was not only the founder of ACORN, in which most of the money flows to him and his family. He was also the founder of SEIU Local 100 and advocates the union/community organizer model.
In the google account, it’s also mentioned he started up a Canadian group in Toronto and Vancouver (google it yourself to find out).
On the rottenacorn.com website is a lengthy document which lists the myriad of organizations that spring from the ACORN family business, a $37 million business.
What we’ve seen in the last week on the Beck show is just a teaser. I’m guessing Beck has the goods all the way up to the Rathke family.
Since ACORN is the subject of investigations in 20 states (map is also on the rottenacorn.com site), the vise if about to close on these criminals.
This is much more fascinating than Canadian politics.
I’ve known a couple of people who I would define as pathological liars in my lifetime and watching this woman talk reminds me of many of the conversations I have had with them. I suppose that the trait that seems to run through all of these people is a constant need to increase their “Status” by talking about their “Accomplishments” and friendships to strangers; a trait that most people don’t have being that most people would rather talk about the weather than themselves.
Now, there is another thing about pathological liars that is worth paying attention to. While they’re rarely telling a true story about themselves there is always elements of truth to their stories. Those politicians most likely were talking to someone at the ACORN office regularly, she very well may have prostituted herself at some point in time, and she may have had an abusive partner that she had to seek help in a woman’s shelter; but it is highly unlikely that she had any involvement with these politicians, she most certainly did not earn $15,000 per week as a prostitute, and I would bet that she probably never murdered her husband (and may never have even been married).
Darrell,
Assuming Acorn started out ‘wanting to help people’ is pretty much oblivious to the origins of virtually all leftist organizations. The more politically motivated and greedy they are, the more helpful their name sounds.
Don’t forget that Acorn Canada was founded by Elisabeth May, Ol’ Bucky herself.
Beck has made no secret of the fact he’s getting his stuff from biggovernment.com.
Their top story is about Wade Rathke’s pitiful defence of his criminal organization.
If you want to see what Beck will be talking about on Wednesday, just head off to the website. You’ll even see what he looks like.
ACORN, BTW, suffered a loss of money in the recent past when Rathke’s brother made off with about $1 million.
Slimeball.
Just checked out the CBC website, couldn’t find anything about Acorn, may be me or their search engine, or . . . . .
Jon Stewart has them by the Acorns tonite.
This is better than “As The World Turns” by light years.
This video equals Glenn Beck is not insane.
the wheels are coming off of the Obama wagon
Erik I am not surprised that the CBC is ignoring this. I just read an article on Yahoo Canada saying that Obama’s popularity is still ‘sky high’ in Canada. Say it aint so. Canada is my ‘escape plan’.
As they say, “there’s no whore like an old whore”.
Tammany Hall was never this stone cold evil.
Obama here only 8 monht or so
everybody know he is not experince man
for his position still young and keep changing
his words because in fact he does not all
he follow his party direction as well
and American and in addition conservative
NOw in short period of time
people vote him knowingly he is black to
he come as change to change so many thing
change so many thing over night is not practically and impossible
USA must prioritize what is first and what is second
if they go to US department office
or study why Oklahama city office blown up again by hand of American
there is so many unjust work this people are doing to hit them and bring hate toward them
Obama came from mid class family in chicago
do you think he knows every body come to shake hand with him
even FOX bring so many people to interview them who also later know they are corrupted
US rather than diggin to find new corrupted
president and proof he is bad
they need to watch president carfully
to do not do or allow doing any undertable corruption
then focus more in their governmnet orginization
and put all cards on the table and see how each money transfer to which departmetn and even if this is good they can review to money use in better shape
find corrption need FBI or under cover to find allocate them and arrest them taht is not job of president but he can address it
DO not excited if you see those scene in USA
IF USA can first fix themselves then easy can help other countries not vice versa

No, Kate, you’re the crazy one. Just you.
Well, Old News, I guess it’s alright then. As you were ACORN.
“I’ve known a couple of people who I would define as pathological liars in my lifetime and watching this woman talk reminds me of many of the conversations I have had with them. I suppose that the trait that seems to run through all of these people is a constant need to increase their “Status” by talking about their “Accomplishments” and friendships to strangers; a trait that most people don’t have..”
Me too. Al Gore and Barrack Obama.
uli, that was weak even by the low standards we allow you.
