The Harpocrits and Canada's Malaise.




Brian Mulroney once referred to Harper as "Ronald Regan like". Recently we have seen the ill effects of Mr. Mulroney's own personal judgement, and this comparison is no exception. First of all Ronald Regan was patriot, Harper is not, but they do love America so it may be true. Sorry Mr. Mulroney but Mr. Harper has now shown signs of another one term wonder, Jimmy Carter. In his last year before the election year, Carter made the famous malaise speech telling Americans to expect less. Now Harper is telling Canadians to do the same. We will run budget surpluses while cities crumble with crushing deficits and rising costs. Public transit upgrades are desperately needed, but we need to use that money on our Challenger jaunts and limo rides. Expect less Canadians, but you can expect we will spend more on ourselves. Well Mr. Harper, Carter's "Malaise Speech" didn't work out for him, so telling people the same won't work out for you.

 

Oh Conrad Black, We Never Knew You

RERUN from 2005.

With the melody of "Bye bye Birdie" ringing in my head, I decided to ctrl-c, a piece I wrote now a couple of years ago. Now that Conrad's networth will now be measured in Marlboro cigarettes, I thought it deserved a new posting

When we think of evil and wealth we generally turn to fictitious names such as C. Montgomery Burns, Ebenezer Scrooge, Gordon Gekko and J.R. Ewing. Conrad Black has proven that evil and wealth are not pure fiction.

The Dark Lord himself has made his mark by purchasing newspapers and firing three quarters of the staff, and then branding the publication as a soapbox for his own twisted views.

In truth, underneath the shield of the malevolent character lies a man who just wants to be loved. Who else would hold upscale parties in his Kensington Home in London, and host the cream of the crop of British high society, and then clamours to his advisor like an adolescent girl, wondering if everyone “liked him”.

Well public opinion of Mr. Black is very low in the land of “The Great White North”. Perhaps he could improve it by welcoming a bunch of over ambitious young people into his boardroom, verbally deride them, and then utter the words “You’re Fired!” I’d pay money to see that.

 

Parliament is for Porn


A light take on this stupid situation.

How the Harpocrits Would Like Schreiber to Appear Before Committee.

 

Spare us Your Brown Envelopes and Non Issue Comments Harpocrits, We Deserve to Know the Truth about Schreiber-Mulroney.

When the Harpocrits first took power, any kind of criticism of them on this blog was quickly spammed with “brown envelope” comments, and taunts of prolonged years of opposition and perhaps slipping behind the NDP. When a new scandal erupted in the government, this blog was quickly spammed, “If this is your top issue, enjoy opposition for a long time”. I later found out that it wasn’t anti-Liberals surfing pro-Liberal blogs, but a thing called the “Canadian Blog Exchange” an olive branch from “Blogging Tories” encouraging their supporters to spam and insult Liberal bloggers. Now the taunts are few and far between, which leaves me wondering; A. Did this Gestapo operation shut down? or B. Harpocrits are in so much trouble now, that only the true fanatics participate in this concept?

Now the Mulroney-Schreiber incident is being hailed as a non-issue in these circles. Well $2.1 million was given to Mr. Mulroney from the taxpayers on the grounds he didn’t know Karl Schreiber. That is now false. That $2.1 million, just like the brown envelopes was taxpayers money, stolen. As far as the brown envelopes are concerned, the Harpocrits had the chance to take the Liberal Party to court on those payments in hopes of creating a sequel to Gomery and calling an election when the hearings reached a boiling point, but pulled the plug when they found out that the Conservative Party could be sued for their convention cheque swapping scandal, and the case was more iron tight. Funny, the Conservative Party’s coffers are endowed enough to pay off that debt, but won’t due to their own arrogance. Harpocrits, gotta love em!
