  1. Splatto – what do you call that, damage control?
    No way on Earth I will pay taxes to fund madrassas in Canada, and don’t dare you tell me that faith based will be limited to Catholic only (as if I wanted to pay for Catholic schools for that matter!)

  2. “Go make fun of an old fart”
    Sorry Hammer, that would be a case of pot/kettle or the glass house thing.
    BTW anyone who says things about enjoying those golden years is lying or cranked up their meds.

  3. Texas Canuck – well I’m not on any med’s other than the occasional home brew or Corona, and so far I’m enjoying it..
    On another note – was just IM’ing a family member recently deployed to Khandahar, she said the rocket attacks on camp Nathan Smith have really increased the last few days, she was as close as 50 meters from one of the impact points. Didn’t get a lot more details as she had to go.
    Haven’t heard much about this in any news or milblogs I can find, has anyone else?

  4. A Hill Worth Dying On
    Canada Free Press By Paul Albers
    …It was after Stephen Harper was sworn in as Prime Minister that the media began trying to turn Afghanistan into another Iraq. With the prediction of increased casualties coming true, the media demanded to be allowed to film the repatriation of fallen soldiers, an event more likely to produce images provoking grief and hopelessness than the patriotic ramp ceremonies they filmed when the coffin was sent home. They criticized the government for not lowering the flag on Parliament Hill even though that was not part of flag protocol or historical practice; they attempted to turn the handing of prisoners over to Afghan authorities into Abu Ghraib.
    Likewise, demanding a commitment to not extend the mission is a mirror of American Democrats pushing for a firm withdrawal date from Iraq.
    The demand itself makes little sense in practical terms….-

  5. “Suspected Islamic Militants”? Cutsey words from the MSM. The reality is:
    Islam: murderous, woman-hating, Muslim criminals.

    Suspected Islamic Militants Behead 2 Alleged Prostitutes in Pakistan
    BANNU, Pakistan — Suspected Islamic militants beheaded two women in northwest Pakistan after accusing them of being prostitutes, police said Friday.
    Villagers spotted the decapitated bodies on the outskirts of Bannu, a city in a region where extremists are waging a violent campaign to impose Taliban-style social norms, a police official said.
    The two women, 28 and 30, were riding an auto rickshaw when five armed men, wearing masks, overpowered them, bundled them into a car and drove away, he said, quoting witnesses.
    The official asked for anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media. …-

  6. A Liberal, Katharine Parsons, wakes up from her coma and discovers the Librano$$$$$$$$$$$$ in her bed.
    This is from her own Press release!
    “The corruption in the Party was like a brain tumour.” As Mao Stlong say: Supplies! Supplies!
    The cancer is viral. The Liblady says it spread from the head of AdScam Chretien/Martin, Jr. When she knows/realizes it all came from Pearson/Trudeau the Liblady will cry, and cry …
    Who knew? No mention ever here about the Librano$’ cancer. Nope.

    Katharine Parsons:
    “I joined the Liberal Party because Ken Dryden and Stéphane Dion invited me to. I believed them when they committed to all that renewal, that transparency. The corruption in the Party was like a brain tumour. People like Dion are trying desperately to cure the disease. But I’m afraid that they cut out the cancer too late. It has metastasized into ridings like ours.” …-
    Liberal Party suffering from an inoperable brain tumor
    “That’s not my metaphor. That’s the image painted by Katharine Parsons, a Liberal Party activist and a director on the board of the York-Simcoe Federal Liberal Riding Association. She has issued a remarkable press release that shows that things are not well in York-Simcoe. What is even more remarkable is the Liberal Party infighting is not so in anymore, but is being done out in the open via press releases.” …-

  7. Slap a HOT AIR TAX on all the eco-wackos who come out with rediculous ideas especialy AL GORE and GREENPEACE

  8. Here are two tips:
    First, the Sask Party has let a hungry, guttural growl escape from beneath that soft, woolly coat they’ve been sporting recently:
    Wading into potentially choppy political waters, a senior Saskatchewan Party MLA says if the party wins the next election, it will review Crown corporations that are competing with private business.
    And it would be open to dismantling some parts of them, MLA Dan D’Autremont said.
    Second, Sask Party Leader Brad Wall, desperate to hide the truth from Saskatchewan voters, has cut his own colleague Dan D’Autremont loose for daring to state the truth about the Sask Party’s real plans:
    Saskatchewan Party Leader Brad Wall moved quickly Friday to stress his party would not consider winding down any Crown corporation subsidiary businesses if the party formed government, despite comments to the contrary a day earlier by a fellow MLA.
    Wall said Cannington MLA Dan D’Autremont was simply wrong in speculating that a Sask. Party review of Crown corporations and how they compete with private business could result in such a change to a Crown subsidiary.
    ‘Simply wrong,’ eh Mr. Wall?
    About a policy people in your party have pushed for years?
    Just what policy are you and your team trying to hide by dismissing Dan D’Autremont in this way?

  9. Canada’s dirty little secret: We’re a lot like Americans
    Personality traits close to those in U.S.: study
    http://www.canada.com/ottawacitizen/news/story.html?id=b3701229-4c3e-44d2-a474-7b2d8ee65dd8
    MSM says it’s a “secret”. LOL. This was exposed on a blog recently. Which blog? (Repost?) It didn’t take an “expert” to expose this “secret”. Common sense based on observation/experience did the exposing.
    The results below from the “study” are tres funny! Think Citoyen Dion/AdScam Chretien/Hezbollah Coderre/Duceppe,/Trudeau, et al as neurotic:
    “France drew one of the lowest global scores for extroversion … and was among the most neurotic of all surveyed nations (52.29). Exact numbers for Quebec were unavailable.” LOL

  10. Swiss Parliament Takes Aim At Immigrants
    A major Swiss political party has launched an anti-immigrant campaign that worries U.N. anti-racism officials….-
    http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1893003/posts
    “Worries U.N. anti-racism officials”. These U.N. transnational bureauc-rats are worried? Good.
    The Swiss are racist for defending their turf? That’s racism? Defending your own borders is not racist; it’s a natural human reflex.
    Go Switzerland.
    Canada must do the same.

  11. At a ‘Catholic’ college, the writing’s on the wall
    This Is Not ‘Folkloric Islamic Calligraphy.’ It’s A Symbol Of Muslim Power
    Barbara Kay, National Post
    …Although it is still “proudly and fiercely Catholic” (in the words of King’s principal Gerald Killan), the college has already allocated at least two prayer rooms for its growing population of Muslim students. That’s perhaps column fodder for another day. Today’s concerns King’s recent acquisition, with funds provided by donors in the Muslim community, of a vivid green neon artwork of Islamic provenance entitled Kian. It presently occupies a very public space on King’s exterior wall and — according to one’s ideological perspective — either adorns or insults the College’s mission…
