Stephen Harper is a Psychopath/sociopath/xenophobic/Dictator….that’s overwhelming tone of the 1,500 plus comments below the Globe Article Canadian foreign policy needs to be more independent of other countries.
No evidence for the charges provided, just comparisons to the dictators who rose to power in Italy/Germany/Spain. Even one assertion that Preston Manning was surrounded by “Nazi’s” guards!. Believe it or not it gets even worse than that in the comment thread. I know, I know, hard to believe but see for yourself.
Don’t expect any cogent arguments, but it is damn fascinating.
Update As you’re reading the “Highest Score” comments vote thumbs down. It will drive them crazy when they see their revered comments went negative!

Anthony Weiner and the Face Of the Modern Left: “Take a good look, America.”
Speaking of which – take another look, Canada.

Take a drink for each occurrence of the word “Democrat”…
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Embattled Rep. Anthony Weiner admitted to posting lewd photos of himself on Twitter at a Monday afternoon press conference.
While addressing the media at the Sheraton Hotel in Midtown Manhattan, Weiner made the following statement: “Last Friday night I tweeted a photograph of myself that I intended to send as direct message as part of a joke to a woman in Seattle. Once I realized I posted it to Twitter, I panicked, I took it down and said that I had been hacked. I then continued with that story to stick to that story which was a hugely regrettable mistake.”
“I am so sorry to have disrupted her life in this way. To be clear, the picture was of me and I sent it. I am deeply sorry for the pain this has caused my wife Huma and our family, and my constituents, my friends, supporters and staff. In addition over the past few years I have engaged in several inappropriate conversations conducted over Twitter, Facebook, email, and occasionally on the phone with women I have met online. I have exchanged messages and photos of an explicit nature with about six women over the last three years. For the most part, these communications took place before my marriage, though some have sadly took place after. To be clear, I have never met any of these women or have had any physical relationships at any time.”
Weiner also said he would not resign and that he did not believe that he did anything that broke the law.

(Bumped for JGL listeners. You can “listen live” at the link.)
This* audio tape (MP3) was allegedly recorded at the March 25-27 Saskatchewan NDP convention in Regina, the speaker alleged to be a well-known Saskatchewan labour lawyer.
Transcript:
“Bill 160 is probably one of the most — and I’ll use this term intentionally — evil acts being attempted by a government in Canadian history. It is the opinion of many, including Amnesty International, that Bill 160 is an attempt to take away our access to human rights. If there’s one issue – one issue – that politicians in power shouldn’t be allowed to get away with, they shouldn’t be left breathing after an election, if they think our human rights are meaningless.”
Strong words, particularly in the context of a speech delivered before an audience, and doubly so in this current atmosphere of hypersensitivity towards any form of political speech or symbolism that might be construed as counseling violence. After all, you never know what nuts might be listening.
Background – Bill 160 – An Act to amend The Saskatchewan Human Rights Code and to make consequential amendments to The Labour Standards Act
*Full disclosure: This is the only portion of the tape I curerntly have access to. If the speaker disclaimed his use of violent imagery as wholly inappropriate, or extended a big union hug towards the politicians referenced in followup comments, I’ll note that in an update.

Up until Walker’s showdown with the Democratic state senators, Koch had never seen a photograph of the governor. He didn’t know him at all. But now the protesters occupying the Wisconsin state capitol were calling Walker a “Koch Whore.”

From an Undisclosed Motel 6 in Illinois;
It’s been my job to coach our brave renegades on how best to stick it to the Man, to present their most reasonable, more-in-sorrow, woeful countenances to the television cameras while our public-employee-union supporters contort their faces in purple rage back home in Madison and Topeka and Bismarck, or whatever those other state capitals are called.
In other words, it’s the perfect leftist two-step in the Age of Obama: Say one thing, do the exact opposite. Pretend to be reasonable and then sucker-punch your opponent. Preach civility (come on — you knew that was a joke, right?) and break out the Hitler mustaches. Swear to faithfully execute the laws of the United States and then pull the rug out from under the Defense of Marriage Act. Genius!
As I’ve explained elsewhere, it’s all a part of our allegiance to a Higher Power — which is ourselves and our own base appetites. You Judeo-Christian creeps often accuse us of having no moral center, no guiding philosophy, no soaring, overarching ethos, but that’s a dirty lie. Of course we do, and here it is:
