  1. I must admit he does look every inch the Liberal that the party deserves. Is that a Obamaphone ?

  2. The problem with The Pony is not that he fools around.
    All kids do that.
    It’s that he’s a dangerous fool.

  3. Justin, like Paul Martin, believes he’s entitled to be PM.
    He knows he wants to be PM.
    The problem is that like a dog chasing a car, that if he ever caught it, he wouldn’t have a clue what to do after that.
    That is when such an individual will go casting about for ways to build his personal legacy and his model will be based on the one person he most admires…in this case his father.
    You have to ask if you really want a PM that lets the economy fall to pieces while he tinkers with the constitutional framework of the country…I mean its working so well for the United States, isn’t it?

  4. So, can we count on Paul Wells saying some nice(r) things about Pierre’s pup?

  5. I like the 1st comment on this page – Gordon Tulk “Privileged children”. Mr. Tulk I hope you realize exactly how true and profound your statement was. Thanks.
    I spent a great deal of my life (childhood) in a very POOR family. Not disadvantaged, not a percentage point. We were POOR – NO MONEY.
    Then I see wealthy, elitist, Maire Antionette crap like these three, playing together without a care in the world ready to tell the rest of us (or as PM to ORDER US how to live) and it makes my blood boil.

  6. Do you suppose Shiny Pony intends to entrench “Property Rights” into Canada’s Constitution if he becomes Liberal Prime Minister?
    I will be inquiring about the issue of Canadian Constitutional “Property Rights” later this morning!

  7. Ah, yes, what passes in the Liberal Party of Canada leadership race for “sexting”: being a member means you never have to leave high school, and even though you’ll never get down to the meat of anything, we will pass around a bunch of goofy pictures of ourselves.
    All of which suggests the ballot question:
    Is Canada going to be a serious country with a serious contribution to make in a dangerous and uncertain world?
    or
    Do you want to pirate a copy of “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure” tonight?

  8. “Justin, this is your father speaking to you from the spirit world through your cell phone. For fuddle duddle’s sake start acting like a man, you do know how to dive and pirouette, don’t you?”

  9. Yea pony beat Brazeau in a boxing ring (pony’s chosen agenda) lets haver a rematch in Brazeau’s chosen agenda a mixed martial arts ring. Fair is fair.

  10. It is utterly depressing to think that we now debate and choose our political leaders based on “tweets”.
    The decline of the West proceeds apace….

  11. And further to my previous post, I won’t be one bit surprised if Shiny Pony wins the leadership based on tweets and tweets alone.
    We have debased our once great culture. Substance no longer matters. Fluff is all that counts.

  12. The idle elite at play.
    Put down the I-phone, stop clowning for the dilettante Social network groupies and come up with a cognitive inclusive cohesive vision of public policy that moves the nation forward – do you laugh off the roll you are aspiring to, or is your whole concept of public service one big circle jerk JT?
    Gerald Butts? You can’t make up sardonic irony like this.

  13. No one took Obama seriously until November 2008. Make no mistake, Justin is the Liberal party’s Obama.

  14. The lady looks like the author of a book on Justin I saw on TV the other day,name escapes me,as does the book’s title,as I have NO intention of ever buying it.
    Judging by the length of Justin’s tongue,I now understand why so many liberal women adore him.

  15. This shows me the National Press elite are all style and no substance. No wonder they are infatuated with Trudeau junior!

  16. As a 16 year old my fascination with Trudeau senior lasted but one year. The sadreality was that he made a career out of ruining Canada. He was re-elected how many times? Why should his son be any different? Conservatives had better be prepared to do more than tsk, tsk!

  17. Looks like a photo in a high school year book. Some drama students messing around?

  18. And Justin feels that he is mature enough to be PM? Wow. I’d love to upper cut him so hard under his chin that he’d bite that tongue off and no longer be able to felch his media psychophants.

  19. Lots of people will think this is just great.
    Stephen Harper isn’t much of a conservative but he is way better than what is likely coming next.

  20. Has this young man ever had a setback in his life? What “downs” has he had to deal with when it comes to life’s “ups and downs”? That is what scares me. Dealing with negatives is part of a personal maturation process. Maybe he has had setbacks, but he does not come across as a genuinely mature person. To me, that is more of a concern than his limited political experience and his (apparently) middle of the road intellect — those things can be compensated for with good advisors. But a lack of personal maturity based on real life experience (including mistakes and failures) is what is required to be a leader.

  21. “…Do you suppose Shiny Pony intends to entrench “Property Rights” into Canada’s Constitution if he becomes Liberal Prime Minister?”
    Well, Liberal mythology (accepted by a surprising number of uninformed conservatives)has it that his old man wanted to do it, but the provinces strenuously objected during the constitional debates. Utter crap of course.
    The only push to enshrine property rights came from Joe Clark…the Liberals (Pierre included) sided with the NDP to shoot it down.

  22. Yes, this actually looks worse for Wells than it does for Trudeau Jr. Wells is supposed to be a serious “journalist”.
    This is to be expected of Trudeau Jr., however. I can barely stand to look at the guy.

  23. We had property rights in this nation until 1968 when the Liberanos and Turdo I scrapped the BNA Act for a worthless, Bolshevik Charter of No rights.

  24. Oh please don’t tell me that Althia Raj is just another elitist progressive playing in Justy’s sandbox. I thought all those folks on CBC National’s “At Issue”, “Canada’s most watched political panel” were highly knowledgable, wise and non-partisan truth tellers!

  25. Wells actually looks a mite embarrassed as he damned well should.
    OTOH, he’ll get asked to all of the Leftard parties and picnics come the nice weather for not ducking out of this asinine photo with Trudeau Jr.
    Justin’s such an idiot that I suspect hubris will prove his downfall — maybe not this year, maybe not next year, but some year it will catch up with him. That with such a thin and insubstantial resume he allows himself the conceit that he can lead a national political party and possibly aspire to be Prime Minister shows what a horse’s ass and how lacking in wisdom he is. He has neither the cojones nor the smarts to be either Librano Leader or Canada’s PM but his drama-teacher persona allows him to imagine those scenarios.
    Having grown up — barely — with Lennon’s Imagine and Lenin’s fantasies ringing in his ears, these delusions aren’t such a surprise. If, however, he had the grace to step back and take a good look at what’s possible and, more to the point, what Canadians — and his young family — actually need he wouldn’t for one minute entertain either the Librano leadership or becoming PM.
    Shiny Pony, indeed.

  26. felis corpulentis — howdy! — thanks for the name of the chick. Althia Raj, apparently, is the Ottawa Bureau Chief at the Huffington Post. OMG.
    She’s barely articulate. Here’s a radio interview which I could listen to for only a little more than a minute: Life’s too short. She says that Justin had “foot and mouse disease” just after the launch of his campaign and admits that he has “no platform” but that he does have a few policies. Lucky Canada.

    Kyrie eleison.

  27. #SubstituteDrama
    I can’t wait to see what unfolds from the CPC pre-election machine with everything the LPC is handing them.
    If Mulcair wants to keep the nice house in Ottawa? He should be talking with Stephen.

  28. I hope I’m not the only one but as a non-tweeter I find understanding the whole #@!~~ thing Greek. I don’t understand a thing.

  29. “…a rematch in Brazeau’s chosen agenda a mixed martial arts ring. Fair is fair.”
    Rob C at 9:21AM
    You meant ‘mixed marital ring’ didn’t you? Or haven’t you heard about Brazeau’s latest choice of opponent.
