  1. Hoar: adj: grayish white, gray or gray haired with age. or noun Hoarfrost. That’s what he said. smirk

  2. Naw, he ‘whore’ and Saint Jack of the Velvet Touch liked them just fine.
    Brings a tissue to my eye just thinkin’ about him.

  3. I posted two of the Youtube versions of the video on Reader Tips. Check out the one I posted at
    1:05 AM. Click on the closed captions options, (CC) then click on the settings (sprocket) and turn it down to half speed. (.5) The word whore does not appear. Perhaps some mean spirited Liberal lover of ISIS had it in for Mr. Lukiwski??

  4. “…he was almost sure he heard the word “whore” but had some doubt.”
    This is not a Rorschach hearing test. It’s about what he said, not what about what people think they heard.

  5. Rather reminds you of the ‘old-stock’ furor, doesn’t it? There’s no horde like an old horde.

  6. He probably said the politically incorrect word and in the meaning of political whore he is probably right. Should have said paid sex worker about whom we are supposed to be okay.

  7. “That is not what I said….and I cant bring myself to correct the honourable member’s misinterpretatation.”

  8. It didn’t sound like either horde or whore, it sounded like ” go down to an NDP or because of a bad boundary”

  9. That’s why I use the term “NDP rabble”. I used to say “NDP Jackholes” but then he became a good socialist.

  10. A good reporter, which this woman reporter wasn’t, would have asked the NDP losing candidate if she was a whore or would have researched to find out if she was a whore. If the answer was yes, then it becomes a non issue. There you go, feminists at work.

  11. “In my mind, whore means virgin; you know, warming for cooling, smart for stupid, etc etc”

  12. Funny……virtually EVERY time I have heard the word used in the context the infuriated, always offended left wing believes it was used, it is pronounced “whure”.

  13. Any sensible conservative knows that the CBC, Blubb and Rail etc., are whores, while the NDP are conscientious nutjobs.

  14. I’m sure I heard him say “Grow a pair you precious, entitled, snowflake SJWs and stop looking for things to be outraged about.”
    You go Tom.

  15. What is ironic is that Moose Jaw was once the capital of prostitution in Western Canada! River Street was lined with brothels, and one block up from the CPR and SOO line tracks. It is alleged that Al Capone once made his way to Moose Jaw in order to seal a deal on illicit alcohol. My ancestors one told me that in broad daylight, bootleggers would unload a one ton truck filled with moonshine and load it up in a SOO Line box car, and the Moose jaw city police would watch over the transaction. The box car would head for Chicago! That was the roaring 20’s!!
    In Moose Jaw, political correctness is rather different than that of the rest of Canada!!

  16. CNN is still reporting that Ben Carson compared Syrian refugees to mad dogs. He did no such thing, he merely used an analogy. Frankly it wasn’t a very good one. What he should have said is: If you’re out in the park and you see a group of dogs frolicking, you might want to go over and play with them. But if you were reliably informed that one or two were rabid, you would avoid the whole lot of them.
    Speaking of deliberate misinterpretation, some decades back a Conservative MP speaking in Parliament suggested that Canadians were living “high on the hog”, implying beyond their means. Speaker of the House James Jerome, in a disgraceful display of partisanship, interrupted him because he claimed he thought the Conservative MP was calling Canadians pigs.
    By the way, if anyone has cause to get into a rant about the current prime minister, please try very very hard to refrain from calling him “that son of a whore”. Thanks in advance.

  17. Trudeau – son of a whore?
    Technically no – while Maggie slept around indiscriminately she didn’t appear to do it professionally – apparently the reason was mental illness. Mind you, what was the motivation for banging the fat Kennedy? Was anyone that crazy? Mary Jo Kopechne?
