“Accident-Prone President: 33 Shocking Facts Which Show How Badly the Economy Has Tanked Since Obama Became President.”
Martin Luther King was supposedly all about freedom. Somehow I find this article ironic.

Baird on Syria :”We understand as this struggle goes on, Canada will need to do more and our government and the Canadian people are willing to do more.”
Don’t remember a consensus on that, even if the claim that there are only a “few” thousand Jihadists on the rebel side is true.

Good cheer for all: Parliament MPs-including rebels in his own caucus-have at least delayed British strikes on Syria. David Cameron has taken a body blow, so this is two happy events for the price of one.

I’m surprised. I thought Obama would have intervened and given Hasan a pardon along with the Congressional Medal Of Honour.

Justin Trudeau has approached Vancouver heavyweight Gregor Robertson to run for the Liberals federally in 2015.
What a great Minister of the Environment Gregor would make in the Trudeau Cabinet!
Thus far, Gregor has demurred,but the siren song of Ottawa and the opportunity to “green” the whole Country may yet prove to much for our beloved Mayor to resist.
Imagine bike lanes from coast to coast!

Rob Ford and Joe Fontana admit they have smoked marijuana,and Ford says he’s smoked “lots of it”.
I guess the more dope you’ve smoked,the more qualified you are to lead us peasants politically!

“Iqaluit gets late-summer snowfall”
“It may not have been the summer Canadians wanted, but at least we didn’t have snow. Unlike Nunavut, where residents awoke early Tuesday to a fresh blanket of powdery white stuff.
The Nunatsiaq News posted a photo on its Facebook page taken around 4:45 a.m., and said the temperature at the time was -1 C. The temperature was only expected to reach 7 C later in the day, with warnings of winds gusting to as high as 80 km/h.
But the capital is not the first place in the territory to get snow this month.
Alert military station, some 2,000 km to the north, already has 17 cm on the ground. The temperature there reached an August record low of -12.7 C on Saturday, which Nunatsiaq News says is the third-lowest August temperature reading ever recorded around sea level in North America.”

Does the CBC cater to a rabid crowd of Harper-haters?
Of course they do.
There is an article on stiffer sentencing for child molesters.
The top comment and most of the rest are similar;
” Stephen Harper should just resign ”

@Wallyj Those comments are ludicrous. I think Conservatives have stopped posting at the CBC due to their heavy-handed censorship. It is not worth visiting their forums. I think many adults have stopped visiting also.
