… for my MPP…
Not so good for Hudak and Hillier and their merry band of tax evaders!
Let’s hope that the momentum carries into next month… and it likely will if the PC’s (minus the “progressive” part) insist on…

April 17, 2010 — “You are so beautiful. I really like the picture of you by the water with your cheeks puffed. That look is so cute, I love it when you do that. Now, I miss you even more.” April 19, 2010 — ”Watch the vote, I will smile at

Take this opportunity to educate yourself of the facts surrounding the rise of Radical Islam, Neo-Conservatism, and the Politics of Fear. It may change the way you view the attacks of September 11, the subsequent “war on terror,” and the never-ending wars in the Middle East. For those largely unfamiliar

There’s a reason the Republicans and Conservatives seem obstructionist both while in government and in opposition. Prorogation at every turn in Canada, and filibustering every routine bill in the States has helped mis/uninformed or “low-information voters” conclude that government is ineffective at solving problems through collaboration, legislation, and science. This is an intentional trick being […]
Edwin Current: Ontario Election Underway
The Ontario election for Premier is well underway! It looks like it’s going to be an exciting race for sure.

The stories woven by official narratives often have little to with the reality of the situation. Lewis Lapham, editorially in Harper’s Magazine, was bold enough to contradict the official version of events. He lost subscribers, was labelled “unamerican” and worse, for his views. Listen to what he has to say as we near the approved […]
Politics and its Discontents: A Tip of the Hat to Two Bloggers

…might have to cancel my trip to D.C. Cuz, after reading this story, I suspect that the Cons on Twitter and elsewhere will be rounding up the names of all of we “lefty kooks” and sending them off to Homeland Security. After all, being a Progressive in this country is considered by some to be […]

This article appeared on PostMedia websites in the lead-up coverage of September 11th, Ten Years Later. A new generation is dawning, and they have no direct grasp of what it means to have lived through September 11, 2001. My experience may have been first hand through live TV, but like most Canadians, my life was […]
The Happy Wanderer: PC over Promising.
In PEI the PC’s in the province who are losing terribly in the polls are trying to gain support promising something that PEI can’t afford. The Pc leader Olive Crane said if elected she would reduce the P.S.T in the province from 10% to 9%.

Some of these new Tea Party candidates are pretty vicious. Gwendolene Thomason, 42, a Tea Party supporter from Jefferson City, was one of the hundreds on hand who were convinced that the Doberman was a Tea Party candidate until he was outed as a dog. “I liked what he had to say,” she said. ”He […]
