Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

“Magic” says, “I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would be in a working meeting with the smartest and most powerful leader”
A working meeting you say?
Working?
I’ve got news for you “Magic”. Barry has never worked a day in his life. Have you ever seen his daily schedules?
And while you were “working”, did you ask him where he went for 8 hours immediately during and after the Bengazi attacks which were almost 1 year ago?
This is the kind of leadership that is now going to go it alone in Syria?
God help us all.
That’s right. I said it!
Wow. I thought Magic Johnson had died from HIV already. Sad to see him still alive and continuing to make bad life decisions whether it be having unsafe sex, having his own terrible talk show, or hanging out with tyrannical socialist scum.
Celebrities and their swelled heads. Just… wow.
Who’s Magic Johnson? Never heard of the guy – is he another affirmative action foreign affairs appointment? The only inference I can draw about the guy that he’s likely dumber than a bag of hammers if her refers to Oboza as the “smartest and most powerful leader”.
The Cruise…nothing but ‘net.
Sentence above should read “if he refers to Obozo”. Just occurred to me that since “Johnson” is an appellation for the male sexual organ, the “magic” in front of the last name may have come about due to some singular properties of said organ. As Robert L. indicated that said individual was HIV+, then I can infer that Magic Johnson is the name of an actor involved in the adult film industry. Why would such an individual be sitting on a meeting discussing a potential unconstitutional act wrt Syria? Perhaps he was brought in as Obozoa’s boy toy for the evening. Given that HIV causes neurodegeneration, why haven’t we been informed of Obozo’s HIV status? As Obozo likely started life with an IQ that would make GWB seem a genius in comparison, if Obozo’s HIV+, then a lot of what we’re seeing might represent HIV dementia. I wonder if the author’s of the US constitution gave much thought to the problem of what to do with a POTUS and vice president who were both deranged secondary to a neurodegenerative disorder?
Ha!
“Magic” go perform some more magic for your 5000 sluts. See what other disease you can catch. Ef’n loser.
Obozo still has an IQ that makes GWB’s dog look like a genius.
His IQ is a secret along with his college records and anything else that relates to his intelligence. We can get a pretty good idea by the dimwits he surrounds himself with, his disastrous economic policies and the inability to speak without his faithful teleprompter. He does look good compared to Biden though, but then again, so does GWB’s dog.
Of course the secret weapon in Syria will be golf balls and basketballs.
The sand traps are already prepositioned and Magic will be designing courts from the ‘cedars of Lebanon’.
The entire Middle East strategy rests on convincing them all to drop their AK-47s and buy golf and basketballs.
Can’t you see the endorsements now; Tiger Woods says Allah recommends the “Nitro Recycled Titleist” for a kaboom in one!
Magic will do a spot: Slam dunk your infidel with Spalding!
Hey and thanks for playing…!
Cheers

One might say that Obama Sr had a magic Johnson given that it extended all the way from Nairobi to Honolulu.
Oh wait a minute, I guess you can travel that distance in nine months, right?
magic Johnson, just shorten that to Tricky Dick!!
Why is Johnson present at such meetings? Does he have security clearance?
I said at the outset of the Obama presidential fiasco … in early 2008 … that it would come to the point where every pop culture jackass available would be participating in the Whitehouse.
Just think, this kind of “leadership” is coming our way when Shiny Pony becomes Prime Minister of this country. There’ll be some international crisis brewing, and Pony will be busy tweeting pictures of himself high-fiving Justin Bieber to his throngs of adoring fans and swooning women.
Makes you wonder if western civilization is even worth saving at this point.
Now MJ has been enlisted as a schill for the corporate interests who run the White House – sure is easy to fool a hoodie these days.
Whenever I here some attention ho pimping another “dear leader” line, I always think about what MLK would say about how his people have fully sold out to the system which wanted to shut him up so badly.
So I assume that Obama is going to announce a full court press against Assad’s regime now?
Could not say it better IM. Too many profoundly stupid people. I blame public education, unions and management
Greg…I blame US for not kicking these idiots down every chance we get.
Al,
It’s a funny comment, but the Lakers in Magic’s era never pressed.
Too much like work.
“I blame public education, unions and management.”
The rot’s a lot, lot deeper than that. It’s just freaking EVERYWHERE. When I sit in an internal company meeting and hear one of my bosses talking about how the Conservatives “always seem so unhappy about everything” .. when the entire freaking country has been navel-gazing about who smoked pot when, just because pretty-boy says he’s smoked it .. when my own wife is positively GLEEFUL that Pony is ahead in the polls (I love her, and she is not quite a swooning fan of Pony, but she HATES Harper for no real reason) ..
I just realize the country is bound & determined to go through with this. We’re going to have another PM Trudeau, and he’ll be a clown and a fool and the Liberals will pillage the treasury for however many years again, and the country will still say, “But we don’t like the Conservatives, they make us unhaaaaaapy.”
I’m going to be one awful cranky old man when I get there =)
Maybe after the regime change, Obama wants to expand the NBA to Syria.
Greg;
Pretty accurate read of the situation. I guess I am already that ‘cranky old man’.
Has society always operated this way? The CPC is smart enough to realize that their support is greatest when people actually get scared about their economic futures. At every opportunity Harper says it is their #1 focus. The Liebels and Dippers cannot compete in that arena. It will be all about timing as they go into election. My biggest beef with the CPC is their very poor education of the electorate about the nations finances.
Putting the Magic into Magic Negro.
It’s gotta get crowded up in that refurbished Oval Office, this would have made better movie material when Bush was in the top crib.
“Why is Johnson present at such meetings?”
Because nothing of substance is discussed when The One is present, so why not have “B” list celebrities taking up space at the table? Just a guess…
There was great information and strategy that was laid out in the meeting today at the White House with Pres. Obama!
Yup! Golf can be a tough taskmaster.
He’s after breaking into the 80’s.
“After winning championships in high school and college, Johnson was selected first overall in the 1979 NBA Draft by the Lakers. He won a championship and an NBA Finals Most Valuable Player Award in his rookie season, and won four more championships with the Lakers during the 1980s.”
“Johnson’s career achievements include three NBA MVP Awards, nine NBA Finals appearances, twelve All-Star games, and ten All-NBA First and Second Team nominations.”
“He led the league in regular-season assists four times, and is the NBA’s all-time leader in average assists per game, at 11.2.[3] Johnson was a member of the “Dream Team”, the U.S. basketball team that won the Olympic gold medal in 1992.”
“Johnson was honored as one of the 50 Greatest Players in NBA History in 1996, and enshrined in the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2002.[5] He was rated the greatest NBA point guard of all time by ESPN in 2007.”
Just in case you really didn’t know who Magic Johnson is,Loki. 😉
Sports and other entertainment stars, no matter how good they are at their specialty,almost always embarrass themselves whenever they venture into the real world.
Obama probably had him over to visit because he was once a famous African-American/black person, and some of the people will still be impressed by the Prez meeting with him.
Stephen Harper would do well to have Wayne Gretzky,Gordie Howe and Jean Beliveau to tea the over next two years.It would distract from the ongoing MSM attacks because Harper didn’t smoke dope.
Politics can be serious business, if serious people are involved in it.
Earlier this year: “Democrats ask NFL, NBA for suggestions on how to battle climate change.”

hang on a second, the commander in chief is soliciting military strategy from a guy who can’t figure out how to unwrap a condom?
is secret agent tiger woods perchance sowing more confusion… by gettin’ busy with assad’s wife?
on the bright side, i guess obama can save a sh!tpile of money by giving the joint chiefs their notice.

Speaking of an Empty Suit in an Empty Chair, this describes Obama and his legacy to a ‘T’:
Attempting to quell criticism of his proposal for a limited military mission in Syria, President Obama floated a more modest strategy today, saying that any U.S. action in Syria would have “no objective whatsoever”.
Kate – Don Surber is back at blogging, and he linked to your item:

Don Morris, I seriously didn’t know who Magic Johnson was. I just figured he was a more up to date version of “Long Dong Silver” who I seem to recall coming up in a supreme court justice confirmation hearing. So much for my inferences.
If there’s one sport I detest, it’s basketball. Hated playing it in high school as it was one team sport that could be played during the winter in Calgary and far prefer playing soccer. If I want to see a couple of black guys going at each other, I’d much rather watch heavyweight boxing. The only basketball player I know of is Denis Rodman and only found out that he played basketball when he appeared on the short lived series Soldier of Fortune and I wondered why the producers parachuted this moron into the series.
There’s this curious American delusion that if someone is really good at an obscure and irrelevent skill, then they are a “role model” and are asked for their opinions on matters completely outside of their sphere of competency. As you’ve noted, the almost always embarrass themselves when they move out of their sphere of competency. Tiger Woods is a great golfer but I wouldn’t seek his advice on how to maintain marital fidelity or anything outside of golf. There are a number of musicians whose music I enjoy, but they are totally clueless about any subject outside of music and should be advised to stick to music and avoid politics. I used to like U2 until Bono started becoming a wealthy sanctimonious twit and just don’t listen to them any more. OTOH, I like Hank Williams jr because we share similar political views and am listening to a lot more Ted Nugent now.
Not knowing who the “famous people” are in the world of popular culture has resulted in my patients now not mentioning any TV series, sports teams or other related individuals who I have never heard of and, when I do google them, I find it curious why anyone would have the slightest interest in such non-entities (unless one was a real estate agent and had an expensive property for sale that hadn’t sold for a long time). I do get told “you should get out more” to which I reply that given finite wetware storage capacity I far prefer to use it for information of clinical relevance.
If people get excited over sporting details, just mention the Edmonton Grads:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edmonton_Grads
Cheers
Thank you for that link. I’ve decided that the Edmonton Grads information is the only data I need to remember about basketball. Now just have to wait until someone I know mentions something about basketball — might have to wait a long time as a live in a town that’s obsessed with soccer in the summer and hockey in the winter.
