The “Blue” Liberal Progressive Disconnect

The Left Hand — Mon, 29 Mar 2010 15:13:35 +0000

It is my hope that enough Liberals will open their eyes to what the Corporatist faction of their party is up to, and put a stop to it. At that point I would be willing to bridge the other differences between the NDP and the Liberals and look for a true Centre . . . → Read More: The “Blue” Liberal Progressive Disconnect

The Olson Gambit

The Left Hand — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 04:01:26 +0000

So Prime Minister Harper is all in a tizzy that a convicted Murderer named Clifford Olson is getting the Old Age Pension while in prison.

Olson is undoubtedly an evil man, a child killer and the worst sort of perversion of humanity imaginable.

These are the very attributes Harper was looking for. A . . . → Read More: The Olson Gambit

The Strange Mind of Ezra Levant

The Left Hand — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 11:54:46 +0000

When George Galloway, the pro Palestinian British MP was banned from entering Canada, well known Uber Conservative high forehead (lol) Ezra Levant had this to say:

“But that’s not my main point: my main point is that Galloway has no “right” to come to Canada. He’s not Canadian.

I’m all for his free . . . → Read More: The Strange Mind of Ezra Levant

Obama’s Health Care Bill (abridged) Passes — Updated

The Left Hand — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 22:30:45 +0000

Well it’s pretty weak beer, but the much amended , watered down, and compromised Obama Health Bill passed Congress last night.

Still, better than nothing I suppose. Like drinking Schlitz Lite, instead of Black Ice, or Bras D’Or.

Maybe that is what happened to American Beer as well. More on this when I’ve . . . → Read More: Obama’s Health Care Bill (abridged) Passes — Updated

It is a day of Great Joy in the hearts of many progressives to-day. Representatives of all three Opposition Parties filed Questions of Priviledge, citing Conservative cabinet ministeras with contempt of Parliament to-day. (March 18th, hereby declared Canadian Democracy Day)

Harper Goes Coup-Coup

The Left Hand — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 19:56:50 +0000

Fifteen months ago, Harper rallied Canadians with a huge misinformation propaganda campaign. He tried to portray a perfectly legitimate attempt by opposition parties to create a coalition government that would have the confidence of the majority of members of the house of Commons as a Coup d’etat. With the connivance of the main . . . → Read More: Harper Goes Coup-Coup

Rosie Di Manno is Confused

The Left Hand — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 05:26:50 +0000

I read a piece by Rosie DiManno in the March 15th Toronto Star, which, in essence, equated any criticism of The government of the State of Israel, or the Zionist movement, as anti-semitism. This in response to a recent conference equating Zionist dogma with Apartheid.

Rosie, for some reason, can’t understand the difference between . . . → Read More: Rosie Di Manno is Confused

Seize the Agenda

The Left Hand — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 13:34:06 +0000

One thing Stevie Harper has been extremely successful at over his political career is controlling the agenda. He has so many angles to accomplish this that he doesn’t walk down stairs, he flows like semi-set gelatin.

Whether it is calling early elections in defiance of his own fixed election date law, attempting to . . . → Read More: Seize the Agenda

Own the Podium?

The Left Hand — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 15:21:44 +0000

Almost 120 million tax dollar has been spent over the last while, with the stated objective of dominating the just concluded Winter Olympics in Vancouver. Was this a good investment?

Well Canadian Athletes certainly won a lot of Gold medals. The spin I like was that in typical canadian fashion we are telling . . . → Read More: Own the Podium?

Imagine Helena Guergis in a Burka…

The Left Hand — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 20:18:43 +0000

I wonder what would the reaction have been to Minister Guergis’ antics in the Charlottetown Airport, had she been wearing a Burka?

For those living in an igloo on Melville Island, Ms. Guergis remonstrated rather pithily with staff at the Charlottetown Airport when she was denied immediate and unrestricted access to her flight, . . . → Read More: Imagine Helena Guergis in a Burka…
