The major media’s double standard, elucidated by Publius:
Death of the Prime Minister
Just for laughs:On Bob Rae’s schedule for Wednesday night [Feb. 22]: some time boxed in to deliberate Stephen Harper’s demise. All for fun, though!
The Liberal Party of Canada seatwarmer is one of the rent-a-dons booked for the annual wit-whack that is the Leacock Debate. Hart House. Great Hall. Toronto. 6 p.m. The issue up for pedantic undressing? “A plane carrying Celine Dion, Rob Ford, Stephen Harper and Don Cherry is about to crash. There is only one parachute. Who lives?” Debate amongst yourselves.Such wit! Such originality! Nothing like telling jokes about Stephen Harper meeting a painful and gruesome end…
The location for this laughing with death debate is Hart House, that’s the student center for the University of Toronto…

Canada’s left is horrendously unhappy, embarrassed, mean, nasty and angry about having a Harper conservative government.
However, America’s left is even worse and they have an ultra left wing government under their favorite mulatto, muslim, marxist. There is just no please these fecal stains.
They are miserable by their own nature. That is part of the mental disorder that defines a Liberal.
They are like Muslims … if they ever run out of conservatives to kill, they will start killing each other.
Impossible situation. Conservatives aren’t that stupid.
Well we could rule out Rob Ford, that would require two parachutes.
A plane carrying Pat Martin, Peter Mansbridge, Bob Rae and Robert Fife is about to crash. There is only one parachute – and it has a big hole in it. Who deserves it?” Debate amongst yourselves.
The pilot, being a good Liberal, would start the debate on the plane, then sneak out like a coward with the parachute. Never mind chivalry (the lady), never mind patriotism (the head of state), just stab everyone in the back and look after yourself like a good Liberal. Easy question.
Sadly the ‘lifeboat’ version of this sick parlor game is still being used in high school Social Studies.
Gee,this was SO funny I couldn’t stop chuckling!
Here’s another side-splitter to debate; a few years ago, Jack Layton dropped by his usual massage therapy clinic. The Madame,er Manager said,” we have only three masseuses available Mr.Layton,and their ages are 19 years old, 16 years old,and 12 years old.”
Which one did Mr. Layton choose? har har,har dee har har.
“A plane carrying Pat Martin, Peter Mansbridge, Bob Rae and Robert Fife is about to crash. There is only one parachute – and it has a big hole in it. Who deserves it?” Debate amongst yourselves.”
Well that’s easy . . . none of them.
The parachute could be damaged, or rip, or get wet and that would be the real tragedy.
For the love of all that is good in the world, don’t tell me that Celine Dion is conservative!
For the love of all that is good in the world, don’t tell me that Celine Dion is conservative!

Maybe…but certainly only in a Joe Clark/Tim Hudak sense…
If I want to obsess over the political leanings of a washed up lounge singer, who are you to criticize? FFS!
Celine Dion walks into a bar.
The bartender says, “Why the long face?”
I’d rather clip my toe nails with my teeth than attend a liberal lovin or is that hatefest? Harper would get the chute by default, leftards attack each other when threated by one of their parasitical own thus whilst they chewed and fought like girls Harper could quietly slip away.
See BCBlue for poster of PMSH with meat-cleaver thru his head,from those oh-so-compassionate lefties.
I am with Vik. Get over yourselves already.
No surprise. Considering what the left does to their own children, why not translate that violence to ‘actual people’ who have survived the womb and grew up to annoy them.
A conservative, a liberal and a moderate go into a bar.
And the bartender says, “How’re ya doin’, Mitt?”
Whomever is on the plane with one chute, if YOU’RE on it the answer is obvious.
Too logical, I’m no fun…yeah yeah….
Reminds me of a similar joke regarding Muslims Blacks and Asians. Can’t repeat it here due to the use of the N-Word.
I am with Vik…

Instead of ‘Who deserves it’ – read who Wins?
Answer CANADA would be the big winner.
I would suggest we start using their playbook and protest every event the left has. But then it occurred to me. That strategy wouldn’t work. They would move all their events to office hours, when all of us are working.
We played a similar game in the army we called the 9mm merit list. I am sure you can all guess how that worked.
Obviously no parachute is needed as Harper would land on the Rideau canal ala Sully and then Don Cherry and Rob Ford would pull the damaged plane to shore while Celine seranades them.
If however the plane must fall, it would be crashed into a NDP/Green/Liberal/CBC political proghole convention saving Canada from tyrannical hell!
Conservatives are gentlemen and would therefore give the parachute to the lady, or, give it to Harper who would do a tandem jump with Celine. As much of a shame it would be to lose Don and Rob, Canada can’t afford to lose Harper.
Grapes and Ford may be able to float down if they tied off the legs in Rob’s boxers.
Thats all you got Obsoiver? Any evidence other than some hyperbolic statements on SDA? How about the murder of the unborn, is that a conservative or proghole principle? What about the banning of DDT leading to over 50,000,000 murders by malaria? What about the dhimmitude shown to the murderous mullahs? What about banning the right to self defense with guns leading to innocent people being raped and murdered? What about the worshipping at the alter of the great GREEN god who wishes to rid the world of 6 of 7 people? Who supports big progressive Gov (Nazis/Commies) who killed 100 million of their own in the 20th century?
Sorry bud but Progs own the death-cult title. I’d say go back to school but my guess is your likely a social studies teacher ruining the next generation of Canadian kids.
Vic and his ego-pseudonyms walk into an SDA bar.
There’s a new bouncer in town, and they’re out on their ear. Woo hoo!
The reference to Tommy Douglas not being “dead enough” clearly refer to the malign influence of Douglas’s ideas and the uncritical hero-worship of his followers.
Gee, a joke about a plane crash, a limp wrist and an @sshole being turned by scientists into a PM named Trudeau comes to mind.
@ Obsoiver
Last time I checked, the left was responsible for over 100 million people being murdered in the 20th century. Y’know, those enlightened progressives in the USSR, China, Cambodia, North Korea, Cuba, the Warsaw Pact nations, all killing their own people who would not submit to socialism or were pawns in the great 5 year plans or the Great Leap Forward. Many were executed, worked to death, or staved at the hands of their socialist masters. Yeah, but conservatives are a “death cult”. Moron.
Robert L, well said.
Hey Obsoiver:
I love this classic example!!!
Remember the Lieberal Solicitor General (’70’s)who forged his girl friends HUSBANDS signature so she could abort his lovechild???
A long time ago, I know, but his employers name Fasken Martineau is on every tv hockey rink I see…when I pause on that wretched game.
And the leftist brand has not improved one iota.
They’re as sleezy as ever. Watch as the robo-call issue deteriorates,as it is based on garbage.
126+ polling stations WERE in fact moved. CBC won’t tell Canadians that.
But you’re welcome to keep trying, you puke.
Eastern Paul and Robert L: I LOVE You guys!
The righteous indignation going on here is almost as good as Newt. Almost.
For those with a short memory….
The lefty producers not only failed to realize the bad taste but were astounded by the public reaction.

Give the parachute to Rob Ford. This way, they all get to live: Ford has the parachute, Celine Dion is so skinny she’d float safely to the ground like a feather, and Don Cherry is so full of hot air he could let Harper hang onto his legs, and function as a parachute for him.
Because, you see, Conservatives know how to work with what they’ve got to figure out solutions.
Such people would never consider filing false reports with Elections Canada…
They like saying things like “death cult” ’cause it sounds all dramatic. Doesn’t mean anything. Prove me wrong, Obsoiver; come back and expand upon your “idea”.
Circulating now.
Man, the left has belly full of vengeful hate
Harper’s Chauffeur
Steven Harper was touring the countryside in his chauffeur-driven limo.
Suddenly, a donkey jumps out onto the road, they hit it full on and the car comes to a stop.
Harper says to the chauffeur: ‘You get out and check, you were driving.’
The chauffeur gets out, checks and reports that the animal is dead.
‘You were driving; go and tell the farmer,’ says Steve.
Hours later, the chauffeur returns totally plastered, hair ruffled with a
big grin on his face.
‘My god, what happened to you?’ asks Harper.
The chauffeur replies: ‘When I got there, the farmer opened his best
bottle of whiskey, the wife gave me a slap-up meal and the daughter
made love to me.’
‘What on earth did you say to them?’ asks Harper.
‘I knocked on the door, and when it was answered, I said to them,
‘I’m Steven Harper’s chauffeur and I’ve just killed the jackass.
They like saying things like “death cult” ’cause it sounds all dramatic. Doesn’t mean anything. Prove me wrong, Obsoiver; come back and expand upon your “idea”.
It told me the first comment didn’t get submitted it did.
BTW, what a silly little drama queen observer is; does anyone here “worship” any of these people, aside from Celine Dion of course?
