This guy is my new personal hero. Just epic.

Warren Kinsella: CC: Christy Clark and Chris Christie
They share the same initials, and they share the same tactics.
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Byline: in which I suggest Jim Flaherty’s closest aides are Johnny Walker and Jim Beam
I’m about six minutes in, after Brian’s editorial. My speculation about Flaherty’s state of mind, and his whiplash-inducing flip-flop on income splitting: He has been taken hostage by officials in Finance, and what we saw post-budget was a hologram; He thought it would be funny to blow up all the
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Karen Stintz, defender of all things Conservative
Check this out: I find that fascinating. What interests me most is Stintz’s decision to (a) attack someone who clearly has her worried (b) her bizarro swing at the NDP and (c) her naked shilling for the Harper/Flaherty Conservatives. Now, given that Karen is a lifelong, hardcore Conservative, one who
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Dan Calda, RIP
I don’t do this thing, for free, to play host to someone to let them libel me and everyone else. In more than 2,000 comments, no less. Buh-bye.
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: The Boss moves to new digs
It can now be revealed where he’s going. They’re damn lucky to have him. He may be 80, but he still works his ass off. Very sad, again, that Heenan Blaikie is gone. They won’t be the last law firm to slip beneath the waves, however.
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Two smart young men: listen to them, Toronto
Meet Eli and Nick, both 13. They’re outside Mayor Crackhead’s office today, along with others, to basically just say he no longer has the moral authority to govern. Say the boys: “We’ve always been taught not to do drugs.” They’re smart young men. Conservatives, you always used to believe in
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: The Blackberry killer
Mistah Blackberry? He dead. The Blackberry killer finally arrived in the mail yesterday. I have used it, and I can tell you this: what little is left of Blackberry will not survive the Typo. The thing that kept the Blackberry alive was the iconic keyboard. Typo now lets you use
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Leaks vs. Budget
Hoo boy. The leaks from the Reformatory sanctum sanctorum have now stomped all over whatever the Reformatories were hoping to achieve with pre-budget messaging. Man, what an unholy mess. I can think of a certain Prime Minister and Finance Minister who are going to be really pissed off. These guys
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Iggy Pop, my lord and saviour
Whenever my kids hear Iggy come on – and I wake to ‘Search and Destroy’ every morning, by the by – I ask them who it is. “It’s the messiah, Dad,” they say. “It is! Praise the risen Pop!” Here he is, in full Ig mode. What a shot! Preach
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Has this ever happened before? Bonus: free political advice
Canada being tops in medals, that is. I know it could change, of course, but if I were Stephen Harper, I’d figure out a way to get that budget voted down, and have an election right now.
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: In Tuesday’s Sun: tweeting twits
If the Internet is a vanity press for the deranged, then what is Twitter? Well, Twitter defines itself as an Internet thing that gives “everyone the power to create and share ideas and information instantly, without barriers.” Personally, I define it as a micro-blogging site that gives “publicity-seeking politicians the
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Political convention hijinx: not news
Seriously? Big deal. When Dalton McGuinty was around, we did this kind of stuff at every single PC convention. If they were organized enough, they’d do it at ours. Here’s a couple videos we did at a 2007 John Tory PC convention, after smuggling ourselves in through a service entrance.
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Who should be more worried?
The guys who are the focus of all this attention – or the guys whose top-secret memos are leaking all over the place? And if the leaks are deliberate, are they really helping the Cons? I don’t think so. Best part of Susan’s story: a bonus reference to Yours Truly!

Don’t watch that one of Dumb and Dumber. Here’s the one that tells you the truth about their record.
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: God, Twitter and Mötley Crüe
Look who retweeted my tweet. Cool.
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: SFH, a professional portrait
I had this commissioned, and it cost me a million bucks, give or take. From left to right, Davey Snot, Bjorn Von Flapjack III, Winkie Nuclear Age Smith. Clip and save.
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: In Sunday’s Sun: Parliament’s giant
Weep for Parliament. Irwin Cotler is gone. You may be unfamiliar with Irwin Cotler’s name – he was a politician, but a quiet one. He was totally unlike many other politicians, in fact. He was not a shouter, or a showboater. He was one of a kind, and – even

Ably assisted by his senior political aides, Johnny Walker and Jack Daniels.
