And They Have Support In Canada, US...

THE TRUE VISION OF CHRISTMAS



THE VISION THAT THE POLITICAL CORRECT WOULD WANT US TO BELIEVE


Congressmen told not to say 'Merry Christmas' to citizens


...and I am sure you could tell us about similar attitudes in your neighborhood, schools, public buildings, etc. but

Canadians still wish each other Merry Christmas

Poll: 'Merry Christmas' preferred greeting - UPI.com

Poll: Two-thirds in U.S. prefer 'Merry Christmas







...maybe there is hope for us.

It Started with Banning Words...

Blog Nuggets: Ontario’s most insensitive council, Israel’s spy vulture


Bite-sized bits of bloggery to chew on, from the day’s headlines

Last night I watched an old episode of Corner Gas in which Davis is forced to take sensitivity training after Karen objects to him and Oscar telling blonde jokes. Davis returns so obnoxiously sensitive, Karen locks him in a cell while Oscar recites rude jokes to snap him out of it. Karen is so dumb she doesn’t get one of the jokes. I don’t believe there was any national uproar. Today, this: The entire city council in London, Ont. has been ordered to take sensitivity training after the female friend of one councillor watched a rude video on his Facebook page (which he promptly removed). One person complained. One. My God, people.

Wal-Mart vs. The Morons

I won't vouch for all the numbers below but the general idea has a lot to be said for it -- JR
1. Americans spend $36,000,000 at Wal-Mart Every hour of every day.
2. This works out to $20,928 profit every minute!
3. Wal-Mart will sell more from January 1 to St. Patrick's Day (March 17th) than Target sells all year.
4. Wal-Mart is bigger than Home Depot + Kroger + Target +Sears + Costco + K-Mart combined.
5. Wal-Mart employs 1.6 million people, is the world's largest private employer, and most speak English.
6. Wal-Mart is the largest company in the history of the world.
7. Wal-Mart now sells more food than Kroger and Safeway combined, and keep in mind they did this in only fifteen years.
8. During this same period, 31 big supermarket chains sought bankruptcy.
9. Wal-Mart now sells more food than any other store in the world.
10. Wal-Mart has approx 3,900 stores in the USA of which 1,906 are Super Centers; this is 1,000 more than it had five years ago.
11. This year 7.2 billion different purchasing experiences will occur at Wal-Mart stores. (Earth's population is approximately 6.5 Billion.)
12. 90% of all Americans live within fifteen miles of a Wal-Mart.

You may think that I am complaining, but I am really laying the ground work for suggesting that MAYBE we should hire the guys who run Wal-Mart to fix the economy. This should be read and understood by all Americans Democrats, Republicans, EVERYONE!!

To President Obama and all 535 voting members of the Legislature, it is now official you are ALL corrupt morons:

a. The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775. You have had 234 years to get it right and it is broke.
b. Social Security was established in 1935. You have had 74 years to get it right and it is broke.
c. Fannie Mae was established in 1938. You have had 71 years to get it right and it is broke.
d. War on Poverty started in 1964. You have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor" and they only want more.
e. Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have had 44 years to get it right and they are broke.
f. Freddie Mac was established in 1970. You have had 39 years to get it right and it is broke.
g. The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before. You had 32 years to get it right and it is an abysmal failure.

You have FAILED in every "government service" you have shoved down our throats while overspending our tax dollars.

AND YOU WANT AMERICANS TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED WITH A GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM?

You And I Can Be Audited But Not Our Emplyees...

L’état, c’est le Board of Internal Economy

By National Post Staff  May 24, 2010 – 9:22 am
 
Every year, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) audits thousands of taxpayers. They may grumble, they may panic, but for most Canadians, it would never occur to them to say: “Wait a minute Mr. Taxman, I don’t need to show you my receipts, just take my word for it. Why would I cheat you? There are laws against that sort of thing.”
The reason for this lack of resistance is not our mythic Canadian politeness, but the fact that failure to comply with an audit can have very nasty consequences. The CRA can seize your bank account, put a lien on your house and generally make your existence a living hell. Such is the power of the state.
But apparently when you are the state, different rules apply. There are no immediate sanctions, and perhaps not surprisingly, your attitude shifts a little. L’état, c’est moi, as Louis XIV used to say. Membership has its privileges, and one of them appears to be avoiding scrutiny of your expenses.

Parliament's audit disgrace

If the House of Commons were a business, MPs would be either facing a shareholders’ meeting from hell, a stock price meltdown, or a lawsuit

Democracy Put On Hold During Olympics???

Olympic censorship

by Walker Morrow - 21/12/2009
censorship-ben-heine.jpg

Late this November, Vancouver City Council said that it would consider amendments to earlier bylaws which regulated the speech of residents of the Greater Vancouver Area.

Particularly the one which would allow bylaw officers in the Greater Vancouver Area to enter any private residence, without the owner or occupiers' consent and with 24-hours' notice, in order to remove or alter signs, advertisements, or graffiti which 'violate' local restrictions.

The amendments to be considered would distinguish between 'political' speech, and 'advertising' speech - the first being protected, the second being just as restricted as before.

The announcement that these amendments would be considered was welcome news to the BC Civil Liberties Association; indeed, it probably was to many of those who were concerned that political speech would be suppressed during the Olympic Games. However, one remains unsure as to what, exactly, the definition of 'political speech' happens to be in the eyes of bylaw officers in the Greater Vancouver Area.

Would, for instance, an advertisement for a political party cross the line?

I suppose it's all rather irrelevant. For the fact remains that our speech is still being regulated. To be told that certain kinds will be left alone, that our government will not deign to walk onto our property and deface or alter our possessions and statements when they happen to be political in nature alone - with other forms of speech left under the dark cloud of potential suppression - is hardly reassuring.

Indeed, try to explain the concept of BC's peculiar approach to political-speech immunity to Amy Goodman, a left-leaning writer and journalist who was recently detained at the border and questioned as to her intentions vis-à-vis the Olympic Games and her coverage of same.

Or maybe you could ask Marla Renn, a member of the Olympics Resistance Network, who, according to her account of things, was searched, photographed, fingerprinted, and questioned for six hours while trying to cross the border in order to give an anti-Olympics speech in Portland, as to how the Olympics and our civil liberties seem to be getting along.

Or perhaps you could ask Chris Shaw and Alissa Westergard-Thorpe, whose lawsuit against the City of Vancouver because of 'advertising' restrictions no doubt influenced the Vancouver City Council's decision to consider leaving political speech outside of their reach.

But that's just the thing. The Vancouver City Council has, essentially, said that they will leave political speech alone, which is something that was expected of them to begin with. Far from deserving congratulations for performing within their own mandate after not doing so for so long, they should be reminded that they never had a thing to do with political speech in the first place.

But then, if we were strictly in the business of reminding politicians of their original mandates, our work would never be done.
