  2. Fox news is calling 52 senate seats for the Republicans. It’s almost time for a few truck loads of ballot boxes to show up.

  3. More than a hundred children in the US — and at least six in Canada — have developed a mysterious form of paralysis. Health officials are trying to determine if it could be related to Enterovirus D68 which has hospitalized hundreds of kids in North America.
    Experts call the condition acute flaccid myelitis because the onset is sudden (usually over one to three days) and because the limbs affected become markedly weak or flaccid. The paralysis can be full or partial. Some have lost the use of an arm, a leg, or more. Others have had paralysis of the breathing muscles and have required a ventilator to help them breathe. The kids range in age between one year and eighteen years of age. Imagine being a child or the parent of a child affected. Most of the kids have abnormal MRI scans of the spine showing inflammation of the grey matter of the spinal cord. That’s the place where the nerve cells that allow us to use our muscles reside.

    It’s only a mystery to those who willfully ignored the circumventing of established immigration protocols which used to protect North Americans.
    Nothing to see Here… Move Along

  4. Who knew we had a fairness commissioner? I can rest sound at night now I know there is a fairness commissioner looking over me, making sure all limousines are fair.

  5. ” Police sources said that a case had been registered against some 2,000 “unidentified people” for the murders and investigations were continuing. ”
    Should it not have said ‘2,000 unidentified’ moderates ?
    Why do we never hear of ‘radicalized’ Canadian/other yutes going to the Middle East to fight for the moderate side?
    Slaughter and rape in the name of Allah/Mo.
    Well, that is not right,but what can we do?
    Put a cartoon in the paper, we will make you pay.
    Calgary’s top islamist, Syed Sowahardy, went after Ezra Levant for publishing cartoons that depicted Mohammed. Now the POS is a media celebrity as he calls for ‘tolerance and diversity’.

    “What it’s telling us is that there has been a fundamental change in U.S. energy sources.”
    …-
    “Given its size and its historical importance, LOOP is really the bellwether of the structural change that has taken place,” Darryl Anderson, managing director of Wave Point Consulting in Victoria, Canada, said by phone Nov. 3. “What it’s telling us is that there has been a fundamental change in U.S. energy sources.”
    “Instead of bringing in oil by ship, refiners have turned to pipelines and rail. Phillips 66 used 3,200 rail cars to get more of its crude from U.S. sources.”
    “Oil Import Decline to U.S. Revealed by Louisiana as Truth”
    “Just six years after importing more than 1 million barrels a day from countries including Saudi Arabia, Nigeria and Iraq, the Louisiana Offshore Oil Port is receiving just half of that from overseas, highlighting a nationwide trend at harbors from Mississippi to Pennsylvania. What’s more, with U.S. output soaring to a 31-year high, neighboring Texas has become the port’s second-biggest supplier.”

  7. Mia Love is the first black woman elected as a Republican member of Congress. In Utah of all places.

    From the Grauniad comments:
    “Obama ‘s CHANGE I think was a myth, just like a unicorn, Santa. 6 years down the line you wonder what he really meant by ‘change has come’. Very disappointing.”
    “Obama’s Hope and Change meant that he would change the economy so that your only hope was to get a part time job and a lousy Obamacare exchange insurance plan with a $5000 deductible (and good luck finding a doctor that will take it).”

  10. How is it that the “rich” don’t pay enough tax, but only they benefit from tax cuts?
    http://www.ipolitics.ca/2014/11/04/these-are-the-wrong-tax-cuts-for-an-economy-in-peril/
    Because it’s not true?
    My daughter and her husband (one income family with three kids) are real upset with the $4000 per year money coming in because of Harper’s tax cuts and increasing of UCCB. They’re so upset they might vote Tory rather than NDP in 2015.
    Imagine, taxes not strangling young families with ridiculously unfair tax and transfer policies – giving back tax surpluses to working poor is well, bad for “an economy in peril.”
    BTW the15% of households figure is cherry picking BS.

  11. The most epic meltdowns I’ve witnessed to date
    http://www.nytimes.com/2014/11/06/us/politics/midterm-democratic-losses-grow.html?hp&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&module=span-ab-top-region®ion=top-news&WT.nav=top-news
    here is just a sample:
    “This is the last comment I will be making for quite some time as I am so sick at heart I won’t be able to bring myself to look at a newspaper for the foreseeable future”
    “Americans have committed collective suicide. This is absolute madness. I cannot even begin to express my disgust.”
    Just a sample; I’m quite enjoying this… and I cannot wait until 2015 when Harper extends his majority.
    BTW, more links on the other Mid term election thread.
    Cheers

    “Two officials in China’s southern Guangdong province were arrested after it emerged that they had bought corpses from local grave-robbers and had them cremated in a bid to fulfill state-mandated quotas for such funeral practices. The incident is yet another reminder of the awkward tension between Beijing’s edicts and entrenched traditions in parts of rural China.”
