When the Insane Slam The Insane: Santorum: “Aborted Babies” Wouldn’t Support Herman Cain, Who Would Do All to Make Abortion Illegal, But he’s just A-OK With Illegal abortions!

Oh those Crazy Rethuglicans! Gotta hand it to them, they’re nothing else, if not rip roaringly entertaining at times!  It seems, they’re particularly nuttier when they fight each other in a primary. My co-blogger, Jymn, so explains Santorum’s rip roarious rantings.  I should start paying attention, really!  Yes, according to Rethuglican leadership candidate, . . . → Read More: When the Insane Slam The Insane: Santorum: “Aborted Babies” Wouldn’t Support Herman Cain, Who Would Do All to Make Abortion Illegal, But he’s just A-OK With Illegal abortions!

Sorry if The Occupy Movement Puts a Kink In Your Plans, Mr. Mayor

Believe it or not, I’m not talking about Mayor Boss Hogg and sidekick Donut Dougy.  No, I’m talking about Mayor Gregor Robertson of Vancouver. You see, boys ‘n’ girls, Mayor Robertson is starting to feel a little antsy these days, wondering when or how to end Occupy Vancouver.

Robertson said the city wants . . . → Read More: Sorry if The Occupy Movement Puts a Kink In Your Plans, Mr. Mayor

The right’s furious, desperate attempts to discredit the Occupy movement with charges of anti-Semitism

Yesterday while I was following the #OccupyVancouver twitter feed, I noticed something strange happening. The hashtag was hijacked by unrelated, idiotic counter arguments to Occupy (not necessarily those belonging to Occupy Vancouver) signs showing up in photographs published on the internet and in the media.

The names of the tweeters and retweeters were . . . → Read More: The right’s furious, desperate attempts to discredit the Occupy movement with charges of anti-Semitism

Solidarnosc! Lech Walesa occupies Wall Street.

You can’t get much better than that. 

Solidarity hero Lech Walesa is flying to New York to show his support for the Occupy Wall Street protesters.

“How could I not respond,” Walesa told a Polish newspaper Wednesday. “The thousands of people gathered near Wall Street are worried about the fate of their . . . → Read More: Solidarnosc! Lech Walesa occupies Wall Street.

Canadian firm postpones kicking Occupy Wall Street out of park. Police beat jubilant protesters.

So it goes in OWS land. Not long after hearing that the Canadian company responsible for kicking out the protesters from Zuccotti Park had backed down, police resumed their indiscriminate head bashing of wayward protest members. At one point a motorcycle cop ran over a pedestrian.

Interesting to note how the media has . . . → Read More: Canadian firm postpones kicking Occupy Wall Street out of park. Police beat jubilant protesters.

Nice Little ‘Manifesto’ You Got There, But, I’m Going To Burst Your Little Bubble–You ARE Part of the 99%

Boys ‘n’ girls, let’s give this college senior a big hand here! No, really! They’re making it on their own without any help from anyone on very little! Or so it would appear…

Occupy Wall Street to stand ground at 7 a.m. deadline to exit Zuccotti Park in NYC

The revolution begins tomorrow.

Facing the prospects of being moved out of Zuccotti Park for a cleaning of the area and the establishment of new rules that may end up killing the occupation, Occupy Wall Street protesters have announced that they plan to stand their ground tomorrow morning. . . . → Read More: Occupy Wall Street to stand ground at 7 a.m. deadline to exit Zuccotti Park in NYC

Timmy Hudak Sinks To Another All Time Low And Goes All Chuckles McVety

Yes, Boys ‘n’ girls, he really has. He’s gotten really disgusting!  First, it appears he’s been distributing this hideous and grossly misleading pamphlet, seen below.

I’m getting a nasty sense of deja-vu when I look at this monstrosity, much like that ad ol’ Chuckles McVety had in the Nasty Post . . . → Read More: Timmy Hudak Sinks To Another All Time Low And Goes All Chuckles McVety

Ontarians, Are You Getting a Sense of Deja-Vu?

It seems that Timmy Hudak is pulling a Stevie Spiteful. When in doubt, bring out the evul coalition bogey man!

Speaking at a Toronto hockey arena, Mr. Hudak repeatedly lumped the other two parties together and suggested any alliance would inevitably lead to higher taxes in the province. He said such a coalition . . . → Read More: Ontarians, Are You Getting a Sense of Deja-Vu?

Outasite! Supreme Court bludgeons Con ideology with reality.

One of the few benefits of not having any political power is that you get to sit back and watch the majority power fall all over its own ideology and arrogance.

Less than 40% of Canada voted for these guys. That’s not a mandate for anything other than doing . . . → Read More: Outasite! Supreme Court bludgeons Con ideology with reality.

Occupy Wall Street going mainstream?

Occupy Wall Street protests have garnered very little media attention, especially the television kind. Yes, there’s been the usual ’dirty fucking hippies’ smirking from the New York Times and the like, but nothing substantial. Most Americans, except those who work or live near Wall Street, have taken little notice. That’s about to change.

At which point will Harper pull out the bathroom break trick?

A. Not getting what he wants out of Ban Ki-moon.

Now There’s a Comforting Thought…

That Ubercon wet dream of Stevie Spiteful’s that he went all ga ga giddy over at Mayor Boss Hogg’s hootenanny last summer that was videotaped. Yanno, that video that the Cons seem to  feverishly keep chasing their tails,  trying to keep it off the intertoobz without much success.

Want a Twisted Way to Waste 312$ CAD?

Or 229 Euros for that matter?

Just when you think you’ve seen everything.

Special 9/11 anniversary blessing? Nah, it’s for some visit the Pope Ratzy is planning to make to his home country. I guess that will be his welcome wagon.

It is ghastly!

Harper Sounds Islamophobic Dog Whistle, Again, Just In Time to Commemorate 9/11

In another move back in time, Stevie Spiteful plans to reintroduce two anti-terror clauses that were originally introduced in 2001, but expired in 2007.   Here they are!

One allowed police to arrest suspects without a warrant and detain them for three days without charges if police believed a terrorist act may have . . . → Read More: Harper Sounds Islamophobic Dog Whistle, Again, Just In Time to Commemorate 9/11

And Now, Let the Leadership Race Games Begin…But Before That, Let’s View The Quebec Challenge

Speculation regarding Jack Layton’s successor had already begun within days following his death.  Personally, I thought it was in poor taste. Kind of predatorial, really.  I mean, couldn’t we bury Jack first before getting to this new business?  Anyway, it’s all now in full swing as of today and as Jean Lapierre mentioned . . . → Read More: And Now, Let the Leadership Race Games Begin…But Before That, Let’s View The Quebec Challenge

Jack Layton’s Funeral, Learning About Jack, The Family Man. A Few Words To Critics,

Jack Layton’s state funeral service couldn’t have been more fitting.  Different kinds of music being played, from classical to Quebecois from Martin Deschamps to pop to a gospel rendition of a 60′s Youngbloods’ classic by Julie Michel. The musical selections also represented something Jack Layton strived toward, besides social democracy;  diversity.  In fact, not . . . → Read More: Jack Layton’s Funeral, Learning About Jack, The Family Man.

Chrissie Blatchford: Too Wrapped Up In Her Own Prejudices & Partisanship To Actually Work at Seeking the Truth & Real Story

Indeed she is, so are others in her field today, sadly. But before I go into that. I will do a little review of the past few days of others of her friends like CJAD’s Trude the Prude and of course, Johnny Kay’s Mommy, Babs Kay.

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.

Now, I Think I Understand Why Obama Ran as A Democrat

Yep, Orwell’s Bastard has it right. I will go further in guessing that President Obama is not just a wimpocrat, he’s actually a Rethuglican  who only became a wimpocrat, probably because he wanted to become America’s first black president. Simple as that. He would never have been able to do that as a . . . → Read More: Now, I Think I Understand Why Obama Ran as A Democrat
