  1. I don’t think they were taliban. The guy talking called them “volunteers”. They may have been Afghan local police who tend to wear civilian clothing.

  2. IED ‘experimentation’ at close range really isn’t good for your survival.
    In the good old days, you measure out some fuse and time the burn rate to determine how long you need to get to a safe distance.
    But hey if your in one of those ‘suicide classes’ it can really be harsh on your lifespan.

    Civility: Will Obama Return $1.6 Million Raised by Spike Lee?

    A few days ago, Spike Lee sent what he believed to be George Zimmerman’s home address into the midst of a racial firestorm. Should Obama return the $1.6 million he collected at a fundraiser in Lee’s home this January to express his disapproval with this decision? You can add this to the question conservatives have been asking for several weeks: should Obama’s SuperPAC return the $1million dollars Bill Maher donated in February?
    Jim Treacher at the Daily Caller recalls a fundraiser President Obama held at the New York home of director Spike Lee in January. The Huffington Post reported on the evening, including the fact that the White House had approached Lee about hosting it:
    The filmmaker, who told WPIX that the White House first approached him about the fundraiser, kept an active Twitter commentary during the event.
    According to Spike, the event raised $1.6 million for the President’s campaign:

  4. re. Kate’s post @11:14AM, I just googled “Bartitsu”. I like it! (It’s been a fighty sort of day, what with poor dear doomed Justin and wife-beating a la Mo and such.)

  5. I’m delighted that the Wildrose are polling so well here in Alberta, but here’s some proof that we are being polled…to…death:
    Campaign research poll Wednesday night:
    17,995 households dialed, 7,532 live answer and 924 responded.
    Do the math: 88% of people hung up, and who knows how many more screen their calls? Plus, that’s only 11 people per constituency that actually answered.
    Stephen Taylor has the poll results up at http://www.stephentaylor.ca/2012/03/albertas-wildrose-way-out-ahead/

    Kate wouldn’t be in training for that.

  7. Now that his hobby-horse issue – getting rid of the penny – is in the budget that he’ll vote against, Pat Martin can resign. But he won’t.

  8. RE: IED:
    Caption below video should read:
    “Was the live wire red–or blue?

  9. My apologies must have posted this somewhere else.
    This is the kind of creature Albertans are facing. Like Obama hates everything America stands for. So does Redford what Albertans do along with most Westerner. West Vancouver Coast, Socialist flakes exempted. Even Bell who’s nominally a Liberal, is shocked.
    Alberta pride
    “They want to be proud of where they live now. They want to be able to talk to their relatives in other parts of the country and know we’re all connected.”
    What is Redford talking about? If you say stuff like this, you’d better explain. Is she saying when you go back to the cottage in Ontario and hang out with Mom and Dad you don’t want to be embarrassed by the fact you live in Alberta?

  10. That video is of Iraqi volunteers. They had found the IED and were trying to do defuse it or something. The full video has a running commentary from the Americans on the radio trying to figure out what to do and how to tell the volunteers to stop kicking the bomb.

  11. http://chronicle.com/article/Preventing-Suicide-May-Mean/131291/ – (subscription required)
    A family is suing Cornell University after the suicide of their son. The heart of their complaint? The University did not erect sufficient barriers along a bridge on campus to prevent their son from jumping off the bridge, nor had they installed nets beneath the bridge to catch the young man once he jumped off the bridge.

  14. Robert W. @ 2:48…..thanks for the link. Bill Whittle is one of the most articulate conservative commentators ever. Very good analysis by Whittle.

  15. Robert W. (Vancouver) at March 30 at 2:48 AM:
    This Bill Whittle “Afterburner” is dynamite—and what I’ve been waiting for: a concise, right-on-target indictment of Barak Obama. Whittle minces no words and documents the atrocities of this “baby”—yes, Whittle calls Obama a baby, which he is.
    Watch this “The Emperor has no clothes” message and send it to as many people as you can!

  16. John Bennett of Sierra Club told Evan Solomon on P&P after Budget,that “this Budget is like Germany in the 30’s insofar as environmentalists speaking out!”……………..and Evan let that go uncontested.I see Norman Spector tweeted this,rest of msm not interested.

  17. Texas this is why it’s best to keep buying gold. Not the paper stuff, the real stuff and don’t keep it in a bank.

  18. For those who didn’t watch the Tony Robbins American debt video yesterday, here’s an illustration of the astronomical amounts involved, which are quite beyond the imaginings of most of us: I was gobsmacked!
    The American debt is at about $15 TRILLION: that’s WAY MORE than millions—mere change—and billions—rounding errors. Here’s how Tony framed it:
    One million seconds is 12 days.
    One billion seconds is 32 years.
    One trillion seconds is 32 000 years.
    THAT’S how much debt the USA is carrying and Obama’s going for more.
    I believe he’s a Manchurian candidate with evil intent. He.Can’t.Be.Gone.Soon.Enough.

  19. “And the Series Finale of Lil’ Mosque is on Monday.”
    I wonder how it will end. Maybe the mullah will issue a fatwah against Canadian infidels and then the cast members will all strap on explosives and blow up every white person on the show? Would be a lor more realistic than the BS they try to pass off as quality “Canadian” comedy. The show won’t be missed.

  20. Robert L. – from the perviews, looks like the Anglican meeting hall/mosque is burned down (hate crime?) and replaced with the mosque at Fort Edmonton Park.

  21. Olbermann fired and now suing…says he was “foolish to believe gore”…him and the rest of the moonbats at the church of gorebull warming

    “…In due course, the truth of the ethics of Mr. Gore and Mr. Hyatt will come out. For now, it is important only to again acknowledge that joining them was a sincere and well-intentioned gesture on my part, but in retrospect a foolish one. That lack of judgment is mine and mine alone, and I apologize again for it…”

  22. Could I have my reader tips from last night pushed through the filter please? Thanks.

    A CBC Budget Poll Goes Horribly Wrong.

    so they have 4 categories for ‘no’ votes, including the ones for wanting even more cuts in with wanting fewer and two for ‘yes’
    you can be sure that when they ‘report’ the results, they’ll only add up ‘yes’ and ‘no’ votes so even if you’re for it you’re against it…typical misleading moonbat methods.
    yet another pre-stacked fake cbc ‘poll’
