  4. A lot of people never noticed the flat tire on the wagon, as Martin went on his merry way!! If I recall, the wheel had stopped turning.

  6. Why is a BBQ in Orleans Ont,$20. for non members and free for members, while a plate load of crappy eggs in Calgary $55.for adults and $40.for kids over 6?
    Is this not an equal opportunity bus tour?

  9. OK, now I feel sorry for the guy, no one deserves the organization he has. Next the worker bees will get caught stealing diesel with a swiped hose and garbage can.

  12. Those must be liberal horses…with that much horse shit behind them… Even enough left over to make a bus.

  14. Hey Iggy!
    I know it smells like sulfur. Amazing what a little bit will do stuffed up the tailpipe of a bus.
    Yer friend Steve.

  16. Made me think of that too, Kate. I still remember the great feeling I got when I when I saw that picture, the schadenfreude was so great.

  17. Get up in the morning, get on the bus
    Get up in the morning like the rest of us
    Places to go, important people to meet
    Better not get up or you might lose your seat
    (Bus rider)
    Leave the house at six o’clock to be on time
    Leave the wife and kids at home to make a dime
    Grab your lunch pail, check for mail in your slot
    You won’t get your cheque if you don’t punch the clock

    Grab the evening paper and sit down in your chair
    Grab yourself a toupee ’cause you’re losin’ your hair
    Doesn’t matter what you do, you’ve nothin’ to lose
    I’m so awful goddamn glad I’m not in your shoes
    (Bus rider)
    (Bus rider) You know you’ll ride it every single mornin’ today
    (Bus rider) Ride, ride, little man
    (Bus rider) I don’t wanna ride, no I don’t wanna ride
    (Bus rider) Get up in the morning, get on the bus
    (Bus rider) Oh, little man ridin’ upside down, yeah
    (Bus rider) Mmm, no I don’t wanna ride

    Oh but the lyrics are so deliciously apropos!

  18. Low sulphur diesel was the culprit. (a joke iggy could make if had any clue what it was referring to)

  19. Today’s CTV poll
    Today’s Question
    Will Michael Ignatieff’s cross-country tour help build trust with Canadians?
    Yes 12%
    No 88%
    That pretty well sums it up.
    Iggy is the best thing to happen for the Conservatives, even better than Dion.

  21. A broke down bus is totally predictable. The Libs should get Conservatives to run everything that needs running for them – it’s the only thing that can save them.

  22. This thing should be made into a road movie. I’m thinking something like; Ziffy: Cultural Learnings of Canada for Make Benefit Glorious Party of Laurier.
    Given the current cast all one needs is a camera and a stack of waivers. Hilarity is bound to ensue.

  23. when the star phoenix ran that picture of the sleigh ride they cropped the picture so the flat tire wouldn’t show. I canceled my subscription that day. I really wanted to see the headline “the wheels come off the martin campaign”. about that time I started reading blogs and really learned how the world works.

  24. (–Teamster Martin–)
    ‘Maurice, you feel that–one of those horses has a short leg!’

  25. Like the old saying goes: A man so educated that he knew the word for horse in 9 different languages but so dumb that he rode a cow.

  32. Both pictures tell the story of the Liberal Party of Canada.
    What Brent said.:)

  33. I’m sure the guy on the phone in the pic is calling to see if David Suzuki’s bus is available!!
    Bwaaaaaaahhhhhhhaaaaahhhhhhhhaaaaaaaa!!!!!
    (would he have to call the CBC to get ahold of fruit-fly Dave???)

  35. One thing I find funny! CBC.ca didn’t mention a word about this story! Naaaw, CBC wouldn’t cover up for the Libs now would they??
    I just hope they don’t have to bury Ma Joad along the highway!
    (Some of you are too young to remember that one!)

  36. Well, at least Iggy’s cohorts don’t have much to worry about when he tosses them under the bus…..

  37. Each election Harper gains more MP’s. Each election he increases turf in every Province. Harper is doing well for the CPC. He is now the longest serving PM in a minority government in Canada’s history. Says alot about his skills. He has forced the LPC under Dion, and Prof. Iffy to support everyone of his Budgets for 4 years. He has stuffed them down the Liberals Throats like a French Farmer force feeding French Geese to make Foie Gras. The Liberals don’t like it, because it ruins their LIVERS. But the results have been good for Canadians. Strongest economy in the G8 and G20. Strongest Banks. Lowest Unemployment most job gains. Canada respected on the World Stage again. Has done well cleaning up the Liberal War in Afghanistan and will get our troops home in 2011. The Liberals are nobodies outside of Toronto and Montreal. They have lost control of the Common’s. They have lost control of the SENATE. Harper is taking away all their MOJO. The Liberals DON’T HAVE THE JUICE. They are RUMPSTERS.

  40. Kate,
    Thanks for reposting that Martin piccie. I have searched for it a number of times. It perfectly summed up that campaign.
    The difference is Martin has determination and would continue to drive that thing. Iggy, well, no determination. Stuff just happens to him, and I can guarantee that nobody on that bus, save the driver, wvwn knew where the engine was, let alone what it looked like.

  41. And to further add…
    Iggy continued down the highway by car, on his Tour du Sulfur, to Cornwall which got nailed by lightning, thunder and heavy rain storms during his visit there.

  42. Martin had determination? More like denial. A normal person would have climbed down and asked where the spare was.

  43. Paul Martin’s Canada Steamship Lines are also in the news with a freighter running aground and leaking fuel into the St. Lawrence Seaway just outside Montreal.
    It was carrying wheat.
    Are you fella’s in the west sticking pins in Librano dolls?
    Please say yes.
    ‘Cause it’s working.

  44. Trudeau’s pup must be waiting breathlessly in the wings, heart all a-flutter…

  45. Kate,
    Fair enough, Martin would ignore an explosion going off beside him. I wasnt trying to praise him, but contrast how Iggy doesnt even have that ability, a sad requirement these days.

  46. Jr will bide his time till most of those who lived the day will be gone, And will use the (ill written) history books to praise his father In order to try to reclaim those so called everything rosey (Socialist) days.

  49. Tour du Sulphur – love it, Glengarrian.
    Went on the weather channel to see the posted videos of the rain storm you had and it was a great one to finish off another day for Iggy.
    Only the hand of the Lord could have had Iggy’s bus towed by Harper Diesel! Ah the irony of it!
    Once a second bus arrived to carry passengers, supplies and luggage to Cornwall for a late event Tuesday evening, the Liberal Express was towed to Harper Diesel, a garage specializing in engine parts and repairs for buses and transport trucks.
