The Onion comes to Canada. Sun’s Mark Bonokoski on Jack Layton.

I’m stealing this directly from Dan Gardner. It’s too perfect to leave on the Twitter floor.

This video defines ‘blowhard’ – Mark Bonokoski in a jealous rage over the attention given to Jack Layton on his passing. These guys just can’t stand a lefty taking up media space they feel they alone deserve to occupy. It’s driving. them. insane.

No Jane Taber, Harper is NOT reinventing ‘patriotism’ in Canada

He is destroying Canada’s greatest and most loved attributes that used to define us around the world – “the Charter, the flag, peacekeeping and multiculturalism”. Instead Harper is hawking war, exploitation of minorities and the poor and an unseemly devotion to US and British heritage. Taber does her best Harper fluffing by continually tying . . . → Read More: No Jane Taber, Harper is NOT reinventing ‘patriotism’ in Canada

To protect and serve: Police left Russell Williams victim bound and naked for five hours

I understand the the importance of preserving forensic evidence but this borders on torture – and worse. Or, is this another example of guilty until proven innocent (emphasis mine)?

A woman who was bound and sexually assaulted by her then-neighbour, Col. Russell Williams, says the police left her tied up for five hours after responding . . . → Read More: To protect and serve: Police left Russell Williams victim bound and naked for five hours

Looks Like Dr. Kellie Leitch of Simcoe-Grey Made Her Choice a Long Time Ago

It appears that hundreds of health professionals are now putting Harpercon MP for Simcoe-Grey, Kellie Leitch on the hot seat in an open letter, basically reminding her of that pesky little hippocratic oath she took when she decided to practise medicine in her previous life, and denounce her own government’s stance on asbestos.

But I Thought The CBC Had a Two Year Cooling Off Period With Ex-Politicians-Juxtapose!

I know I’m going to need to be heavily sedated after writing the first sentence, but I find myself in agreement with the Blogging SupposiTory resident McCarthyist, BC Blue today. I am asking the same question he is today:

Why is CBC allowing Stockwell Day to break their 2 year cooling off policy?

However, . . . → Read More: But I Thought The CBC Had a Two Year Cooling Off Period With Ex-Politicians-Juxtapose!

In Solidarity With Michaela Keyserlingk And Jean Charest Also Has Dirty Hands

Ok, for lack of anything original, I’m going to do a variation of what DeBeauxOs did earlier over at Dammit Janet. Boys ‘n’ girls, how do you spell ReformaTory? C-A-N-C-E-R. I do mean cancer in oh so many ways as anything they touch is poison. But today, of course, we’re talking about their . . . → Read More: In Solidarity With Michaela Keyserlingk And Jean Charest Also Has Dirty Hands

Stevie Harper’s Conservatives Show Just How Spiteful They Are As They Go After a Widow Of an Asbestos Victim

Yep, no holds barred with this gang of miscreants. That asbestos lobby is just so damned important to them that they won’t let a widow of a man who died of asbestos related mesothelioma get in the way of their agenda.  They’re going after her for the use of their contempt party logo.

Giorgio Mammoliti– A Great Shirriff Roscooooo P Coltrane To Mayor Boss Hogg

Yes, ol’ Giorgio Mammoliti has been really becoming unhinged as of late. McCarthyism is indeed alive and well over at City Hall. A Facebook group that won’t allow ‘commies’, although, one seems to have slipped through, but the comment has been scrubbed. Damn! shoulda taken a screen shot.

First, was his spying at . . . → Read More: Giorgio Mammoliti– A Great Shirriff Roscooooo P Coltrane To Mayor Boss Hogg

Montreal police dragging feet on investigating infamous Christianist Twitter troll ‘David Mabus’?

I’ve read the name ‘David Mabus’ a few times on Twitter, mostly in tweets from PZ Myers. Montrealer Mabus (real name: Dennis Marcuze) has made a name for himself by threatening atheists with “decapitations, executions and genocide”.

Montreal police have received over 3,000 requests for investigations of this individual and they are not happy with the number . . . → Read More: Montreal police dragging feet on investigating infamous Christianist Twitter troll ‘David Mabus’?

We Always Knew Stevie Harper Was Anally Retentive

Well, well, well! What do we have here? Stevie locked hisself in the john, AGAIN??

On a trade mission to Brazil this week, Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper apparently engaged in some pretty undiplomatic behavior, according to Brazilian newspaper Folha.

On Monday, Brazilian president Dilma Rouseff asked that official speeches and toasts take place . . . → Read More: We Always Knew Stevie Harper Was Anally Retentive

Things North American Corporate Media Would be Sure To Suppress But Would Be Crazy Enough To Work

Not to mention, no doubt, things to drive American Homeland Security Batty and drive the McCarthyist Tea-bagger paranoid types off to the fainting couches. Norway’s response to the recent terror attacks, quite different from Dubya  Bush’s “We’ll smoke ‘em out!”  vengeance speeches following 9/11 or those crazy security measures like airport body scanners . . . → Read More: Things North American Corporate Media Would be Sure To Suppress But Would Be Crazy Enough To Work

Tea-Baggin’ Congressional Rep, Joe Walsh Believes in Austerity, All Right

Including imposing it on  his own children.  Before I go into that, Let’s tune into some typical tea-baggin’ swill of his:

“I won’t place one more dollar of debt upon the backs of my kids and grandkids unless we structurally reform the way this town spends money!” Walsh says directly into the camera in . . . → Read More: Tea-Baggin’ Congressional Rep, Joe Walsh Believes in Austerity, All Right

Dougy Ford, Perhaps If You Actually Set Foot In a Library, You Might Learn Who Margaret Atwood Is

Oh, poor, long suffering Dougy Ford, city councillor, side kick to his brother Mayor Rob “Boss Hogg” Fordzilla.  Always the bridesmaid, but not the mayor.  He seems to be bitching about too many libraries in Etobicoke and not enough Timmy Horton’s.  Oh and he hasn’t a clue as to who Margaret Atwood is.

Yes, BC Blue, Dean Skoreyko, Toronto Star Just Ain’t a Classy a Paper as, Say, The Toronto Sun?

It’s been awhile since I’ve verbally bitch slapped a blogging supposiTory.  I’m going back to it, because, well, they just lend themselves to it. BC Blue Dean Skoreyko, Come on Down!  You’ve just been the next contestant of a Ck verbal bitch slapping.
