The Prime Minister's just waiting for the Canadian Tire guy to come out of hiding is all.

Dalton McGuinty secures the Tranny Vote.

I'm going to miss being vegan.

All 100 of them, apparently.

This whole thing is pretty stupid, but dammed if it doesn't get funnier each time they update the story.

I'd leave extremely sensitive classified documents at her apartment anytime, if you catch my drift.

The best part was the riposte that leaked out way back when that picture was taken.

Prime Minister Harper's office flunkey calls Bernier:
Flunkey: "That's not what Mrs. Harper would have worn to an official reception."
Bernier: "Exactly."

In Canada, terrorists say 'eh?'

EDIT: Yeah, these tapes are going to make for some funny-ass listening.

Oh wait, that secretly belongs to us

Weeeee. Drink. Your. MILKSHAKE.

Goddamit will this never end either?

Between this, the Celil case, and about a half-dozen other episodes of complete international spinelessness, I am left to wonder just how long before I won't be ashamed of my country again.

You mean you aren't already?

I mean, we still have Harper in power.

Annnnnnd.. we've continued to find new lows with our utter dereliction of moral duty when it comes to Omar Khadr.

I don't care if the damn kid thinks he's Osama Bin laden himself... he was captured when he wasn't even old enough to fuckin' shave.

Videos of the above

Man, that is one incompetant fucking interrogator. Granted the videos chosen are for maximum public impact and they would hardly release any videos with actual information on them, but still...

Mongrel · « **Reply #13 on:** August 04, 2008, 05:06:36 PM »

I can only pray that someone will give this man a huge fucking medal someday.

THAD EDIT: The link refers to Omar Khadr's defense attorney requesting that the charges against him be thrown out. Khadr was a child soldier and Canadian citizen arrested in Afghanistan and is currently being held in Gitmo.

Thad has no sense of the dramatic.

So I hear your prime minister dissolved all the checks and balances in your government.

how's that working out for you?

Brentai · « **Reply #17 on:** September 07, 2008, 01:56:00 PM »

Hoo boy. I know there's an expression for this, but I can't recall it. "Pot calling the kettle black" doesn't quite fit. I'm thinking more like "The cripple calling the lame man slow" but it's not quite rolling off the tongue.

Well, in all honesty, it's the lame man calling the cripple slow. It's a bad time to be anywhere in the Americas, I guess.

We're looking at electing the status quo.

The only person I'm cheering for is Dr Keith Martin, MP Esquimalt Juan De Fuca (Liberal), only because he's done a fantastic job, no matter which stripe the turncoat wears at the time.

Speaking of which, here's an article by his team: http://www.keithmartin.parl.gc.ca/detail.asp?lang=e&type=news&sid=2922

Forget what you see on the TV. This is the true state of Canadian politics, and one of the major contributing factors to why our system is stagnant and out of touch with the electorate..

Mongrel · « **Reply #19 on:** September 09, 2008, 06:42:01 PM »

Anyone who thinks Harper dissolved all the checks and balances of the Canadian government is living in a dreamland.

...along with those people who were ever under the misapprehension that we ever had any checks or balances.
