  1. Imagine, only the Liberal party could find a less effectual and less manly leader than Stephan Dion.

  2. You just know the left are hurtin,they now have a Facebook page,”Fire Peter Mansbridge”..really upset with Petey for getting Iggy to spill the beans! Check out Peter’s own FB page,the anger is palpable..gee,nice to see them finally getting to feel our pain with the cbc.

  3. “let me fix that headline”
    HARPER IS EVIL AND
    WILL TURN CANADA
    INTO A DICTATORSHIP

  4. This is too rich. I just look at mansbridge’s face book page, the lefty heads are so EXPLODING. I love it

  5. Of course I’m biased. But Mansbridge, to his credit, did try and hammer Harper yesterday. It’s not that Mansbridge’s offense was stronger.. but Iggy and Harper and not in the same league defensively. Harper is used to being relentlessly attacked by the CBC while the Count was expecting the usual cheerleading. Mansbridge pressed Harper yesterday too – but Harper just handled it better. And against the Count, Mansbridge had home ice advantage. Dropping the gloves at centre ice took away the studio advantage yesterday.
    So people are actually angry with Mansbridge and are thus overtly admitting that they expect the CBC to cheerlead for the Liberal party and are angered when things go horribly wrong…

  6. I watched and listened to the video clip of the Mansbridge interview, and went back over it a number of times. What struck me was how COLD Ignatieff was, and how eager he was to portray himself as a victim of the ruthless Harper Tories.
    Then, I switched on the TV and saw his Liberal ads, which, as Mansbridge had said, promote FEAR.
    The Liberals are the ones who are instigating a potentially destabilizing constitutional crisis in this country. The Liberals are the ones with a secret agenda.
    “Rise up, rise UP, Canada”….
    What, and let YOU and the U.N. seize control?

  7. “What struck me was how COLD Ignatieff was, and how eager he was to portray himself as a victim of the ruthless Harper Tories.
    Me too, Ignatieff wasn’t behaving like it was an interview, more like an infomercial. He even smiled differently.. and his botox/makeup was extreme. It was pathetic and his fans are raging.
    Could someone on facebook please let the angry CBC viewers know that they can file complaints with the CBC ombudsman?

  8. Mansbridge and Murphy are the most objective and professional of the CBC news herd. Peter gave good interviews for all the leaders. I enjoyed watching Iggy waffle and squirm.
    Here’s mine:
    MY DEMOCRACY
    WHIPS VOTES
    IGGY FOR DICTATOR

  9. How about:
    “Democracy,but not necessarily Democracy”, or
    “Merde. Oh Well …”, or
    “It was Legal, You Know” or
    “Yorkville isn’t in Etobicoke-Lakeshore Riding?”, or
    “Minus 3 Percent? How Did I Get Minus 3% Share?” or
    “Giving New Meaning to Tanking” or
    “You Just Can’t Trust That G&M”.

    With your permission I would modify your saying to:
    Vote for the Liberal Family Pack
    and what you’ll get is PM Jack.
    It rolls off the tongue a little better and my ten year old son can use it to retort the neighbors kid a bit. Ghost of Ed still gets full credit, hope you don’t mind the wee fun edit!

    “max says… ‘What struck me was how COLD Ignatieff was'”
    cold doesn’t cover it… more like mr spock with a stick up his a$$
    “Nothing is personal in politics, because politics is theater.
    It is part of the job to pretend to have emotions that you
    do not actually feel.”

  12. Iggy says,Peeair Bourque the Star and Globe promised me they could deliver, This is so unfair. Stephane said, Steven Arper is so unfair, I ate Steven Arper. Worked well for the last Lieberal leader Iggy, but at least he beat the “NDP”. This is serious folks when commusist Jack gets these poll numbers if in fact they are true. Can Western Canada put up with Jack and Olivia holding the balance of power? NO!

  13. My opinion of the whole Mansbridge thing, is that either the CBC is fully aware of the hot seat that Sun News has put them on, or they are looking for more funding mandated by Jack Layton. Either way, I am happy that he pressed the question.

  15. Do Ray ME, ME, ME, ME, ME, ME,
    ME, ME, ME,ME, ME, ME, Darn,
    I always get stuck at that point.

  16. I have been viewing Peters Facebook page, and he certainly has raised a sh!tstorm amongst his faithful Liberal fans.
    Thank you, Peter.

  17. Isn’t it time for an Operation Canadian Chaos? Is there anyone among us who doesn’t need a dipper lawn sign *right now*?

  18. C, thank you, but my Conservative sign is up already and safe from wandering bands of wastrel sign-snatchers with malevolent faces.
    My favourite posting on Peter Mansbridge’s Facebook page:
    “Why? Peter why?”

  19. How about this for the sign:
    …….PSST…….
    PLEASE VOTE TORY
    I WON’T TELL ANYONE
    I WANT TO GO HOME

    The conspiracy theories are pretty rich too. Somehow he is in cahoots with the CPC’s and Harpers staffers scripted the Q&A.

  21. PET Cemetery Report.
    “Once a sure thing, Liberals now fighting for Jewish vote”
    “The one thing Irwin Cotler never expected in his political career was to be forced to prove his commitment to Jewish causes and the state of Israel.
    “It causes me deep, personal anguish,” said the long-time human rights activist and former Liberal justice minister who is running for the sixth time in Pierre Trudeau’s former riding of Mont Royal in Quebec.”

    Liberal Count Ignatieff’s great-grandfather Count Nicolai Ignatieff on the Jews:
    “If you have lived in South Russia, you know
    what the Jew is,” replied Ignatieff. *’ He is dirty,
    he dresses differently from anybody else, he forms
    a society of his own, and he oppresses the people.”
