Sleeping With The Enemy 7 Comments

After the failure of the right to invigorate the Calgary voter last week, the Alberta NDP goes on the offensive.

That’s not her new title, of course. Her new designation is infrastructure minister. But her unofficial job will be to build the government’s credibility and popularity in Calgary. That is a daunting construction project.
The NDP may have won 15 seats in the city last election, but it is deeply unpopular in Calgary, according to every public opinion poll. Premier Rachel Notley is looking for ways to reverse the trend.

Cause the polls are so accurate….

“All cultures are equal.”, “All cultures are equal.”
Or so I envision the left-leaning women’s rights organizations repeating to themselves.

A man has been cleared of raping his wife after a judge ruled that he did not know his behaviour was criminal in Canada.
Ontario Superior Court Justice Robert Smith said prosecutors had failed to establish that the man knew it was against the law to have sex with his wife without her consent.

As I watched Tesla’s messy, hiccuping line, with workers dashing in to fix faulty parts in place, my mind travelled back to the Honda plant I had visited years ago in Marysville, Ohio. Clean, calm, everything moved smoothly. I was so shocked by the contrast that I imprudently voiced my concern. That didn’t go over well with my fellow Tesla owners. I was a killjoy, I was calling their choice into question.

This one’s a must read.

Anyone should farm anywhere.

Wingnuts want to go back to the middle ages with all the disease that entails.

The popular trend of raising backyard chickens in U.S. cities and suburbs is bringing with it a soaring number of illnesses from poultry-related diseases, some of them fatal.
Since January, more than 1,100 people have contracted salmonella poisoning from chickens and ducks in 48 states, according to the Centers for Disease Control. Almost 250 were hospitalized and one person died. The toll was four times higher than in 2015.

Idiots.

CFL Picks Week 18

CFL 11 Comments

Down to the last three weeks of the season. [Sad face]
Friday:
Saskatchewan at Calgary…the Carter Papers. If the Riders want to show anything, this is the game. Unfortunately I think they’ll just show that Carter isn’t a DB. Pick Stampeders.
Saturday:
Winnipeg at Toronto. Winnipeg beat a no-holds barred BC last week, Toronto lost to Edmonton. Pick Winnipeg.
Edmonton at BC. Edmonton needs to keep pace with Winnipeg if they want in the Western play-offs. BC is playing spoiler. Pick BC.
Sunday:
Hamilton at Montreal. Meaningless game. Pick Hamilton.

Winning.

Filings for unemployment benefits plunged last week to the lowest level since 1973 as workers affected by hurricanes Harvey and Irma continued to return to their jobs, Labor Department figures showed Thursday.
I read this to mean small and medium business is going gung-ho.
Dow ends above 23,000 for the first time ever
This means investors have confidence in large business being profitable.
Now, I’m no economist, but it all seems to mean that the US is going through a boom.
Some things never change.

Because of the hate.

For two days now, the American political media has been baying about the nature of President Trump’s call to the wife of Sgt. La David Johnson who fell in Niger.
Was it disrespectful? Does Trump like the military? Does the President care about the troops?
The fifth column democrats kept at it on that cesspool known as Twitter.
“Is Trump trying to get Kelly to vouch for him?”, “He’s trying to get Kelly to lie for him.”
They hate, hate! that Trump is president, that they lost. They hate him so much they and the more egregiously ugly, attention seeking House whores would politicize a phone-call of a President to the family of a fallen soldier.
They let their hate for republicans, hate for America, hate for Trump get in the way of their common sense.
Today, finally, General Kelly smacked some sense back into the hateful children.

You don’t get what you pay for.

Great Moments In Socialism 22 Comments

Via the Rebel, the UK’s National Health Service pulls a Morneau.

The NHS will ban patients from surgery indefinitely unless they lose weight or quit smoking, under controversial plans drawn up in Hertfordshire.

Smokers have long since acquiesced to the heavy hand of “socially conscious” government but it’ll be interesting to see if the “love your body” and “don’t fat-shame me” crowd are also saps.
