  1. A whole social order brought down by sex, drugs and rock ‘n roll.
    Happened here already, why not in Tehran? Kids always find a way to get around Nanny. Even the mean Mullah-style Nanny from hell.
    Imagine having to pick up chicks in your car and then you don’t even get to make out with them, just drive around? That place is going to explode!

  2. IT’S A START!
    ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION ACTIVIST DEPORTED TO MEXICO
    http://tinyurl.com/yomgsr
    “”LOS ANGELES (AP) – An illegal immigrant who took refuge in a Chicago church for a year to avoid being separated from her U.S.-born son has been deported to Mexico, the church’s pastor said.
    Elvira Arellano became an activist and a national symbol for illegal immigrant parents as she defied her deportation order and spoke out from her religious sanctuary. She held a news conference last week to announce that she would finally leave the church to try to lobby U.S. lawmakers for change.
    (…)
    “She is in good spirits. She is ready to continue the struggle against the separation of families from the other side of the border.”
    >>>>which is where the “protests” should be in the first place. The difference between immigrating and invading is a matter of respecting the laws of the nation you are moving to.

  3. Montebello Quebec becomes a fortress as Left and right mobilize to protest secrecy of North American integration:

    A Canada-Mexico deal is also brewing that would allow more Mexican migrant workers into Canada under an expanded program for agricultural labourers. U.S. Congress killed a similar attempt earlier this year to reach such an agreement between that country and Mexico.
    Interesting how the talks will look at mandatory biometric ID for you and I to travel but they are working on the “free flow” of migrant Mex labor :K
    I also see that since this story broke wide open ( inspite of all the hush hush efforts of the SPP proponents) Tom D’Aquino has been deployed to respin the agenda of SPP to “harmless and routine Bureaucrat to bureaucrat stuff” ………..move along now nothing to see here…just the 3 leaders onf NA and the largest megeacorps on the continent meeting behind closed doors with an overbearing swath of military security…nothing at all.
    The moonbat lefty protesters add to the air of “carnivale” put us off the core directives in the summit involve national sovereignty and economies being “blended”….keep your eyes and ears open and your hand on your wallet… the Mexican necromancers are planning a continent-wide stage act of leger de main.

  4. Survey Says: Stephane Dion is a hamster
    But asked to dig deeper, they compared Harper to an industrious ant, busy bee, or proud peacock. The NDP’s Jack Layton was a wise owl, friendly dog, or an intelligent dolphin. In contrast, Dion was a timid mouse, scared ostrich, slow cow, or a disposable pet like a fish and hamster.
    ….
    But the deadliest number, it seems, is the 45 per cent of Canadians who judge Dion the country’s most “boring” choice. “The first hurdle any brand or persona has to cross is getting attention. When boring is high, there is never anything else,” says Ted Langschmidt, Hotspex executive vice-president. “He is the archetypal little grey man.”

  5. Alexander Panetta of the CP gives us a report on Montebello Quebec that’s not at all biased or slanted.
    http://news.yahoo.com/s/cpress/20070820/ca_pr_on_na/montebello_summit
    ….
    One common complaint echoed by all is the secrecy surrounding the meeting, which is to discuss the North American Security and Prosperity Partnership.
    A group of powerful business executives has been invited to make a closed-door presentation Tuesday at the summit on changes they believe the continent needs. No such invitation was extended to scientists, environmentalists, or other social activists.
    ……
    The group comprises leaders from 10 companies in each country and includes corporations like Wal-Mart, General Electric and weapons-maker Lockheed Martin. They advise the three national governments on facilitating trade.
    “Powerful business executives”
    “closed door presentations”
    “10 companies” including “corporations” like “Wal-Mart, General Electris and (in case you’ve forgotten) ‘weapons-maker’ Lockheed Martin.”
    My God! We’re doomed!

  6. After studying the issue for the last 7 years(since my oldest hit high school), I can say with authority that the whole “war on drugs” is a complete failure. You name it is available to children as young as 12. Our youth are now going to the same criminals who sell crack and meth to buy their cheap cigs. The same thugs and punks sell weapons to gang-bangers and lunatics. We are imprisoning old men for growing plants on their land. The bikers have been handed a cash-cow with marijuana. And it goes on and on. Canada must change it’s policy, and soon.
    The following is what I think is the minimum steps to be taken, or we, as a society, are going to lose what little control we have left.
    1. 100% crack down on contraband tobacco
    2. de-criminalize marijuana, tax it, and direct funds to policing and health care
    3. 10 year sentence (a full 10 years) for peddling any chemical
    4. same sentence for any weapons offence
    5. funds from gun registry re-directed to front line policing

  7. The Wikipedia editing story continues as people with a lot of time and energy go looking into who did what … BBC Vandal and Censor Warned!
    The good news seems to be that Wikipedia monitors have been watching and letting the vandals know it.
    Does that mean this problem will be fixed??
    Reuters has been the source of over 1500 anonymous edits…the CBC over 1200!
    Who are the individuals in these organisations that are doing it and why?

  8. I was in downtown Ottawa just after the anti-SPP protest took place on Sunday afternoon. Supposedly the organizers were hoping for a 20k turnout, but you really had to look around for protestors – didn’t seem like there was an out of the ordinary amount of moonbats about. Certainly the police outnumbered protesters by a wide margin. A complete non-event.

  9. I honestly think robert novak should decline any invitations to go hunting in the future. His book should make for a good read.

  10. Opinion at townhall.com on the ‘Duh, lets call God, allah and we’ll all get along,’ moonbat brain fart.
    Tiny Muskens, a Dutch Roman Catholic Bishop in Amsterdam, released another nifty idea this week upon his wooden shoe wearing sheep. Minister Muskens, well-known for stupidity aplenty, came up with a fresh game plan of which he said would aid the Dutch, yea, the entire world in getting along with Muslims Gone Wild. Tiny proposed “that people of all faiths refer to God as Allah to foster understanding.”
    Well, isn’t that special?
    I’ve got two problems with this priest’s prescription:
    1. The Catholic Church in Indonesia is not the pace car for Christian conduct. Hello. . . . FYI to Tiny: of course Catholics in Indonesia are going to call God ‘Allah’—there are two of them and 234,693,997 Muslims. I’m guessin’ that the Catholics over there are pissing their pants.
    I bet they’re feeling the same way I felt when I, the only white dude in a full theater, saw the movie Malcolm X the first day it was released. When asked by a rather large, pigment-blessed patron as the credits were rolling if I liked the film, I said, “of course I liked it. Whitey is the devil—and could you point me to the nearest well-lit exit?” Catholics in Indonesia do it? Please.
    2. God doesn’t mind what we call Him, eh? What god are you talking about, Tiny? Are you talking about the god of fearful and capitulating chunky Dutch priests? If so, I’m sure that such a squishy, imaginary, nutless diety that one’s made up in his fetid and feckless fermented mind is completely cool with such a craven course of action.
    Ridicule as a bug spray, is as good against leftard appeasers and apologists as it is for islamists.

  11. Warning to West on ‘evil of Islam’
    THE West was [is] still underestimating the evil of Islam, an influential Muslim thinker has warned, insisting that Australia and the US have been duped into believing there is a difference between the religion’s moderate and radical interpretations…
    In an interview with The Australian, Dr Sultan — who shot to recognition last year following an interview on al-Jazeera television in which she attacked Islam and the prophet Mohammed — said Muslims were “brainwashed” from an early age to believe Western values were evil and that the world would one day come under the control of Sharia law…
    “Muslims have been hostages of their own belief systems for 1400 years. There is no way we can keep the Koran.”…-

  14. Denial runs deep with Europeans with the French farthest ahead in dhimmitude. It’s bad enough here, but, we aren’t living on the front lines of massive Muslim immigration.
    According to the Financial Times, their poll indicates Brits are “more suspicious of Muslims than Americans and other Europeans…
    Only 59 per cent of Britons thought it possible to be both a Muslim and a citizen of their country, a smaller proportion than in France, Germany, Spain, Italy or the US – the other countries polled by Harris Interactive.
    “France emerged as the country most at ease with its Muslim population. The French were most likely to say they had Muslim friends, to accept if their child wanted to marry a Muslim, and to say Muslims in their country had received unjustified criticism and prejudice.”….amusing isn’t it that the French presume that Muslims have no prejudice toward them, a rude awakening that will eventually happen when Muslim numbers get even bigger.

  16. follow up to WL Mackenzie Redux,
    The Vikings cared about each other, and wanted to share their happiness with others. To do this, they travelled to other cultures as immigrants. Today, heteronormatives would call them harsh names, like illegal immigrant. Vikings believed in open borders, and they liked to share. They did not like Christians, so they supported the separation of church and state.

    ….As Don Surber points out, the United States functions as Canada’s back-up medical system, enabling it to run with less investment in facilities. America’s evil, heartless private medical care system saved the day….

  23. “You can go outside and spit and have the same effect as doubling carbon dioxide,” Bryson, [said]…
    “Climate fears reduced to ‘children’s games’
    Other scientists are echoing Wilson’s analysis. Former Harvard physicist Dr. Lubos Motl said the new study has reduced proponents of man-made climate fears to “playing the children’s game to scare each other.”
    “Anthropogenic (man-made) global warming bites the dust,”
    “Another scientist said the peer-reviewed study overturned “in one fell swoop” the climate fears promoted by the UN and former Vice President Al Gore.”

    New Peer-Reviewed Scientific Studies Chill Global Warming Fears
    Washington DC – An abundance of new peer-reviewed studies, analysis, and data error discoveries in the last several months has prompted scientists to declare that fear of catastrophic man-made global warming “bites the dust” and the scientific underpinnings for alarm may be “falling apart.” The latest study to cast doubt on climate fears finds that even a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide would not have the previously predicted dire impacts on global temperatures. This new study is not unique, as a host of recent peer-reviewed studies have cast a chill on global warming fears.
    “Anthropogenic (man-made) global warming bites the dust,” declared astronomer Dr. Ian Wilson after reviewing the new study which has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Geophysical Research. Another scientist said the peer-reviewed study overturned “in one fell swoop” the climate fears promoted by the UN and former Vice President Al Gore. The study entitled “Heat Capacity, Time Constant, and Sensitivity of Earth’s Climate System,” was authored by Brookhaven National Lab scientist Stephen Schwartz. (LINK)
    “Effectively, this (new study) means that the global economy will spend trillions of dollars trying to avoid a warming of ~ 1.0 K by 2100 A.D.” Dr. Wilson wrote in a note to the Senate Environment & Public Works Committee on August 19, 2007. Wilson, a former operations astronomer at the Hubble Space Telescope Institute in Baltimore MD, was referring to the trillions of dollars that would be spent under such international global warming treaties like the Kyoto Protocol. …-

  24. Not that we need one but here is another example of MSM bias.
    http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Canada/2007/08/20/4432285-cp.html
    At the side of the page is a on line poll asking if GW is responsible for increased hurricanes? Split about 50-50. The story says that this is the first hurricane of the season. Season runs from June 1 to November 30. Today’s date Aug 20. Those fact would suggest that just like last year we will see below average hurricane activity this year. Yes I know that there are 3 more months to go but we have 2.5 months behind us as well with zero activity.
    How do they come to that poll question from the story they wrote? No bias here, move along.

  25. Wood Spider.
    The results of the poll indicate a lack of critical thinking. People seem to have their opinions given to them by their peers or by the agenda driven garbage produced by the majority of the MSM. No thought required. I had the opportunity to discuss the middle east (amoung other things) with a local politician. We debated (and disagreed) for an extended period of time. One of his points offered that my opinion was not held by the majority. He didn’t like it when I mentioned that given current immigration rates, soon his opinion would not be held by the majority either.

  26. Mike, I do think it is fare to blame the MSM headline writer’s and their editors. Where will this end up? It has been suggested before that GW will blow over and the “next” great cause will be whatever is easy to sell to the masses.
    Thank you Kate for keeping the discussion open on everything that is reported, please keep us junkies happy.

  27. I can say with authority that the whole “war on drugs” is a complete failure.
    1. 100% crack down on contraband tobacco
    Cognitive dissonance?

  28. Putin orders resumption of strategic bomber flights:
    3w.guardian.co.uk/russia/article/0,,2150927,00.html

  31. I am not sure what point ol hoss is trying to make, but if one cannot see the connection between contraband tobacco and organized crime, one is an idiot.

  33. I think his point was that talk is cheap!
    Actually accomplishing takes a lot more effort!
    I’d agree with that………..

  35. klad, hoss was delicately pointing out that, if the war on drugs is a complete failure, then adding a war on contraband ciggies (aka socially acceptable drugs) would by your logic also be a failure.
    You’re usually a little more sane; have you been enjoying a liquid lunch?
    I’ve sympathy with your dichotomy: one need not necessarily win the battle, only fight it.

  36. Check out this graph of farmland values of Saskatchewan and around Saskatchewan:
    http://www.sedar.com/GetFile.do?lang=EN&docClass=9&issuerNo=00025696&fileName=/csfsprod/data83/filings/01137546/00000001/i%3A%5CSEDAR%5Csdk%5C065342%5C0001%5Cprelim.pdf
    In particular, take a look at page 19, and page 21.
    Saskatchewan = $309/acre. Manitoba = $511/acre. Alberta = $817/acre. North Dakota = $560/acre.
    Its really amazing how much Saskatchewan farmland has lagged the rest of the region.
    Page 26 is interesting too: the general partners are well known Saskatchewan Party insiders: Doug Emsley, Brad Farquhar. The Saskatchewan Party in action — trying to bring more investment to Saskatchewan! (and yes, if you keep scrolling, believe it or not, theres some NDP cronies in there, like Mel Watson and Gord Nystuen)

  38. The bank robber story reminds me of a friend who used to work at my company. He was in a bank, Canada Trust, and at his turn with the teller he could see she was in shock. He asked were you just robbed?.She nodded yes so he went out after the robber. My friend was a champion , for his age bracket, marathon runner. He was also very tall so the police were told to look out for a tall runner in a suit who was following the robber, also running, about 40 metres behind. Yep the robber was caught, my friend got a commendation.
