Media beginning to see Obama’s warts

It took some time, but the limp-wristed sob sisters of the former mainstream media have finally noticed that Barack Obama isn’t all that he’s cracked up to be.

What makes us so angry?

A 21-year old man was killed in a road rage incident in Aldergrove BC, after the driver of another vehicle ran the young man’s truck off the road and then turned around and ran over the young man, killing him instantly.

Seven additional reasons to go to hell

In an effort to stay abreast of the times and to feel more relevant, the Catholic Church has issued a decree that doubles the number of “capital” sins to fourteen.

Alienation in an alien nation

The fragmentation of our society is nearing exquisite proportions as more and more identity groups discover victimhood. Not a day goes by when some individual doesn’t claim to be offended on behalf of some identifiable affinity group. It’s gotten so our lexicon is rapidly being purged of words that identify members of any cohort, lest there be offense. This tendency to take offense on behalf of certain groups has reached the grass-roots level as now members of groups take offense by what local politicians say. Recently Toronto councilor Rob Ford got himself a lambasting for daring to identify Orientals by the name “Orientals” and he did so in the most positive way, praising people of Asian descent as being well-known for their work ethic.

On November 2, 2004 a Dutch film maker named Theo van Gogh was shot eight times, had his throat slashed to near decapitation, stabbed in the torso several times and then had a note pinned to his chest with one of two knives embedded there.

In the US they’re still lynching Blacks

Today Conrad Black surrendered to authorities at the Coleman-Low Federal Penitentiary near Orlando, Florida to begin serving a six-year sentence for three counts of mail fraud and one count of obstruction of justice. Black’s prison sentence amounts to a lynching, pure and simple, as forces beyond even his control conspired to deprive Black of his wealth as well as his liberty.

Curious George has his knickers in a knot

Ontario Health Minister George Smitherman is curious about the adequacy of adult diapers being used in Ontario nursing homes.

Global “coorming”?

For over a year now, the few scientists who haven’t been intimidated or bullied into silence by the so-called “scientific consensus” we hear so much about, have predicted a rapid cooling of earth’s climate due to the ...wait for it.. activity of the sun. That prediction is tempered with the qualifier that sun spot activity has been virtually dormant for over a year and unless that activity returns soon, the planet will once again experience a “little ice age” like the one that ended during the 1850s.

Almost euthanasia

Next time you feel like bragging about how great the Canadian healthcare system is you may want to consider what’s routinely done to elderly patients in some of our hospitals. Recently an elderly woman, let’s call her Mary, had a stroke, which affected the left side of her body, meaning that the stroke occurred in the right lobe of her brain.

In Canada the Mushy Middle runs the show

Have you ever wondered how poll after poll shows Canada’s Liberals and Conservatives each with somewhere in the neighborhood of 30-35% of decided voters?

The “Moronification Factor”

The other day, I ran across a column in the National Post penned by CFRB Radio’s afternoon talk-jock, John Moore.

Ontario: Happy Family Day, suckers

Ontario premier Dalton McGuinty is famous for lying to voters, having broken nearly 100% of his over 230 election promises that he made during the 2003 campaign against Ernie Eves.

The culture of surrender

In case you’re wondering why Islam is the fastest growing religion in most western countries, it’s because our own religious leaders aren’t particularly interested in the preservation of our religious heritage.

Liberals rooting for the Taliban

It appears the Taliban Wing of the Liberal Party of Canada has taken control of the party and is issuing policy statements demanding that Canadian troops get out of Afghanistan.

The fine art of debate- liberal style

Anyone who has ever debated someone of the liberal persuasion is aware that in those debates certain rules apply. Take the (non)debate over global warming, or climate change, as more prescient liberals have begun to call it.

Free speech go to hell

Gosh, what a surprise. The Canada Broadcast Standards Council (CBSC) has ruled that Vision TV did not violate federal broadcasting standards in allowing Isar Ahmad, a radical Pakistani Imam, to lecture on his particular brand of poison last summer on the multi-faith TV station.

A step back in time

In the summer of 1964, I moved to Meridian, Mississippi, which then was a sleepy old-south town just getting acquainted with the 20th century. In those days the town was completely segregated with separate schools for black and white kids and drinking fountains and public washrooms bearing the designations “colored only” and “white only”.

Democrats scamming electorate

During this year’s presidential race some interesting dynamics are beginning to surface through the Democrats’ quest for a candidate: they are scamming their electorate. Each of the three prospective candidates is positioning him or herself as something that he or she is not.

Jack Layton is a ghoul

NDP leader Jack Layton is up to his old tricks, using peoples’ personal tragedies to advance his political fortunes. This time Jumpin’ Jack called a press conference at the corner of Broadview Ave. and Gerard St. E. to advocate a crackdown on gun crime in Toronto.

Do voters really want change?

A good friend of mine who is probably the most politically astute person I know maintains that the most dangerous word in politics is “change”. That’s because she believes that despite all the hype at the beginning of each election cycle, the last thing voters really want is change.
