Let Freedom Rain II: UPDATED: Ethical Oil calls Neil Young ‘IndianIgnorant’
Ezra and crew created the racist hashtag #IndianIgnorant for Neil Young. Then they deleted it when they realized their own racism. This is what we’re up against. It’s not just Licia Corbella and the Conservative press. It’s assholes like Vivian Krause, who take money from oil companies to do their bidding. It’s Ezra Levant and

Sherman to Crabtree – “Hell of a game. Hell of a game” with hand extended. Crabtree slapped his hand away.To all you Richard Sherman critics, fuck off. You don’t know shit. And HE’s the one fined. Because he’s black and a “thug.”Racism is rampant in the sports media and NFL. Fuck

CBC sucks ass. CTV tilts right. CNN is the stuff of comedians. Fox News is fascistic. And then there’s the incompetence and stupidity of MSNBC.

Makes perfect sense. The Conservative press must be delirious and distraught at the same time. If I was in the Opposition, this is the fish I’d hook for campaigning. Sarah Palin destroyed the GOP and its hopes for power.

Jim Cuddy, from the Canadian MOR band Blue Rodeo, called Young’s comparison of the oilsands with Hiroshima extreme. “He’s grossly exaggerating,” Cuddy was reported saying of Young’s comparison of Alberta’s oilsands to Hiroshima. “Nobody can say that any kind of open-pit mining – whether it’s oil, shale or whatever – is beautiful. I’m not

Perhaps it’s because he wrote this yellowed, lazy article on a Democratic president in the Conservative press (National Post), so no one will object. Even if it’s based almost solely on a bitter ex-general’s cover up of his own ineptitude. Can we please have more independent, free-thinking journalists? Is it

Canada’s Prime Miniister Netanyahu once again attempted to sabotage the quest for peace with Iran led by Obama and the United States. (And we all know what Netanyahoo thinks of brown-skinned people.) John Baiid echoed his PM’s words, sure to be followed by cries of ‘surrender monkeys‘ and other insults

Senate scandal. What scandal?

They have to face facts. The scandals, the Ford meltdown, Harper’s refusal to answer direct questions from the opposition and so much more. Even Harper’s journalistic chauffeur Tasha is scoffing at the mess. Sun Media, not so much.

I grew up in the 60’s. I cannot imagine a band enforcing a dress code. Especially one that requires formal attire. Either this is a joke or the band has lost its lustre. In any case, fuck Arcade Fire.

Bonus Rob Rord buffoonery.

Someone who I can’t recall recently admonished me for doubting Trudeau, telling me that he has the very best advisement team behind him. Really? Can you imagine the outrage if he had been slated to address a men’s only club? LOL.

Canadian news media has been all over this but mostly in a polite way. Not so the rest of the world. Even American progressive bloggers – hesitant at the worst of Conservative times to comment on our politics – are laughing their proverbial asses off. But now our media is

Whether he’s there in person or in spirit, the great Kahuna of Kids casts his perverted spell over the Harpbot of Flanagan. Forget Duffy. Put Wallin out of your mind. Brazeau? Amateur. No, the real perversion of the Harper/Byrne tag team comes from the lack of morals and ethics taught
