Jane Taber and Candy Hoeppner Are Now Into Fiction: Part 1– Diabolical Wedgie Games: The Politics

ck — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 19:42:15 +0000

Yes, Jane Taber is all ga ga giddy, again, for her precious Harpercons and this time it’s over her new girlfriend, Candy getchergun Hoeppner. Boys ‘n’ girls, Janie is all ga ga giddy this time because she is of the belief that Candy getcherguns Hoeppner, and she alone, is responsible for collapsing the . . . → Read More: Jane Taber and Candy Hoeppner Are Now Into Fiction: Part 1– Diabolical Wedgie Games: The Politics

Harpercon Booster Jane Taber and the Rest of the Reformatories All Hurt By Iggy

Ok, Jane, you got what you wanted, your dreamy Steve got his precious kingdom and Iggy is gone. What the hell is your problem now? Are you perhaps auditioning for Sun News (oops! Bell dropped ‘em)? Yes, poor Jane and the other Harpercons are a tad upset today because Iggy didn’t offer an . . . → Read More: Harpercon Booster Jane Taber and the Rest of the Reformatories All Hurt By Iggy

End of The Road: No Time To Be Lulled Into a False Sense of Security and Stevie Can Still Get His Majority

ck — Mon, 02 May 2011 02:23:32 +0000

We have no arrived at the end of the road of election 41 campaign. We have been polled, tweeted, newsed, etc. Before I go on, I would like to review all the party’s campaigns briefly.

Maybe there is something to be said for peek-a-boo campaigns? Jane Taber was certainly very complimentary of . . . → Read More: End of The Road: No Time To Be Lulled Into a False Sense of Security and Stevie Can Still Get His Majority

The Winner of The French Debate–Mme Muguette Paille of La Mauricie-Perhaps Canada’s “Joe The Plumber”?

ck — Thu, 14 Apr 2011 18:56:28 +0000

While the punditry, pollsters, bloggers, media types and spin doctors all sort out as to who won and who lost last night’s French language debate, many from Twitter and Facebook have declared another winner. Not a political leader; not even in politics. The unsung heroine of last night appears to be none other . . . → Read More: The Winner of The French Debate–Mme Muguette Paille of La Mauricie-Perhaps Canada’s “Joe The Plumber”?

What Needs To Happen In The French Debate This Fine Evening

Tonight’s French language debate will no doubt have much fewer viewers outside of Quebec, but there are many Francophones in the rest of Canada who will probably tune in as well. Not to mention, the punditry will all be out observing with the help of translators no doubt and there will be the . . . → Read More: What Needs To Happen In The French Debate This Fine Evening

Stevie Looked Like He Was On Drugs, Duceppe Won For Facial Expressions, Iggy Didn’t Land That Crucial Punch, Layton Won

ck — Wed, 13 Apr 2011 02:55:02 +0000

For openers, I’d really like to know who Stevie Spiteful’s pusher is. I mean, all three of them were attacking him and yet, he always looked calm. Too calm, in fact, he looked stoned. Had to have been a pharmaceutical explanation for this.

Stevie did give himself away though. He has no plans . . . → Read More: Stevie Looked Like He Was On Drugs, Duceppe Won For Facial Expressions, Iggy Didn’t Land That Crucial Punch, Layton Won

Man, the hypocrisy of these Harpercon crybabies just keep crawling out of the woodwork. Today, we have the Chuckles Adler edition, courtesy of FrmGrl.I’ll verbally bitch slap her later because she richly deserves it today.

Before I go on, I believe that Liberal candidate, John Reilly, running in the riding of Wildrose, should’ve been . . . → Read More: Juxtapose With Harpercon Cheerleaders–More Awesome Blogging SupposiTory Hypocrisy!

Could The Red Book 2011 Backfire For the Liberals?

ck — Sun, 03 Apr 2011 14:58:03 +0000

I’m going to play Devil’s advocate yet again, but more to the point I’m going to play the cynic here. After all, given the pattern of the daily Nanos poll, showing the Harpercons going up steadily and the Liberals going down despite good campaigning from the Liberals and a poor one from the . . . → Read More: Could The Red Book 2011 Backfire For the Liberals?

We Juxtapose With Lawrence Cannon

ck — Sun, 13 Feb 2011 15:20:44 +0000

In a letter to the editor to the Grope and Fail by none other than Harpercon puppet, Lawrence “Loose” Cannon, he basically rips into Iggy for his concerns regarding that North-American fortress.

The Liberal Leader should put Canada ahead of politics and end the counter-productive, anti-Americanism that he himself once criticized.

Now, did . . . → Read More: We Juxtapose With Lawrence Cannon

Looks Like Harpercons Can’t Wait For The Budget To Call Spring Election

According to Susan Delacourt’s latest article, one Don Burroughs received a call from the Harpercons yesterday afternoon. It even appears that a date has been set for March 29th for election day. Here’s more:

Year In Review: The Year The Public Disengaged

Logan — Mon, 20 Dec 2010 07:19:13 +0000

This has been one sad year in Canadian politics. Allan Greg said it best when choosing the political moment of the year on the At Issue Panel this past Thursday: “…put’s us in worlds tallest pygmy territory.” No truer a statement has been said by a political pundit.

Loyal Opposition? My letter to Ignatieff…

Michael Ignatieff,

You hold the position of the Leader of the Loyal Opposition in our House. You may be aware of this, if so, this is not coming across to the electorate.

The Awesome Power of Michael Ignatieff

TorontoEmerg — Wed, 13 Oct 2010 13:56:29 +0000

Shorter Lawrence Cannon (and at last estimate, about 10, 000 Tory blogs): Michael Ignatieff, evil genius, is the real Foreign Affairs Minister.

On the other embarrassing foreign policy debacle, we have this stupidity:

I’ve got an idea… let’s ask a former Liberal Defense Minister what he’d do in this situation.

Travers ponders a Conservative majority

Jymn — Sat, 09 Oct 2010 14:43:53 +0000

The Star’s James Travers scared Mattbastard back to bed this morning with a column on the frightening possibility of a Conservative majority. Travers goes through the likely scenarios and maps out the new reality of Canadian politics. That reality has been wedged single-handedly by Harper. He has split the nation, manifested the most unsavory of the nation’s . . . → Read More: Travers ponders a Conservative majority

Stephen Taylor, Put Up or Shut Up!

A typical Harpercon cheerleader’s modus operendi; psyche everyone out when things don’t look to be going their way. I had read on some of the blogs about Stephen Taylor tweeting that some Liberal MPs will be staying away from the vote tomorrow evening.

Dear readers, let’s forget for a moment where we stand on the long gun registry and gun control for a moment–it’s not what this post is about. It’s solely about leadership and politics that have led to this point. Really, for the sake of this post, we could insert a vote on any . . . → Read More: Jack Got Lucky, Or Did He?

It Looks Like Iggy Is Taking Kelly McParland’s Advice

Susan Delacourt is one of the few columnists who has been not only printing the facts about Iggy’s bus tour, but has actually remained positive about it. I only wish some of the more Liberal leaning columnist would have (and would) followed her lead rather than to continue nitpicking and lamenting him.

Well, Jack, Who Are We Supposed To Blame Then? Isn’t This The Sort of Thing You Chastise The Liberals For?

Well, it’s official now. Jack Layton will not be whipping his caucus into voting against Mullet head Hoeppner’s Bill c-391, the scrapping of the long gun registry which will no doubt, set the precedent for Stevie Spiteful to go the way of no gun control, just like Texas and Arizona.

Yes, we all knew this day was coming; Jean Charest would shuffle the cabinet. With his Quebec Liberals polling at all time lows given the last budget was chock full of user fees and the party is still mired in scandals, Charest is doing what many are calling “shuffling the lawn chairs on . . . → Read More: Jean Charest Takes Back a Former Government House Leader and Iggy’s Aid, Making Him An Offer He Couldn’t Refuse & Jane Taber & the Harpercons are Already Pointing Their Daggers at Iggy

Will There or Will There Not Be an Election This Fall? Who Would Want It, If Anyone At All?

ck — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 19:41:24 +0000

Both EKOS and the usually Harpercon friendly Ipsos-Reid polls have Harpercon numbers slipping and those of the Liberals rising somewhat bringing them to a near tie with, of course, the Harpercons hanging on to a slight advantage.
