NY-23: A newspaper editor sees 'Huns at the gates'

the albany project (Free subscription) | 8 hours ago

The NY-23 special election is now over , again, but for the absurd conspiracy stuff LOSER Doug Hoffman is peddling to his know-nothing base so he can raise money for 2010. Congressman Bill Owens has gotten two excellent committees , given that his district includes Fort Drum and 100 miles or so of border with Canada -- Armed Services and Homeland Security. But here's what's more interesting than all...

The perverse equivalence

Yourish.com (Free subscription) | 10 hours ago

In a paper on how the term “apartheid” is being used to deny Israel’s right to exist, Robbie Sabel concluces: The Apartheid campaign against Israel has another revealing feature. It rarely deals with the massive abuse of human rights or cases of real Apartheid elsewhere in the world. In other words, it singles out Israel with [...]

Abhorent Consistency

All Politics Is Local (Free subscription) | 8 hours ago

The Conservative Party of Canada is showing its true stripes this week. On two equally disgusting fronts. First, the Tories are defaming whistle blower Richard Colvin because he implicated that government employees in both Defense and Foreign Affairs tried to bury the torture of Afghan detainees in Kandahar's prisons. Second, the Tories are continuing their relentless pursuit of the Jewish vote by...

Party Like It's 2009

CalgaryGrit (Free subscription) | yesterday

Everyone went list-crazy in 1999, but the end of the aughts is fast approaching with little fanfare or retrospective. So, since this December figures to be a lot less interesting than the last, this is the perfect time for a Calgary Grit mini-contest. So, what I want from everyone are suggestions for the “top Canadian political moment of the decade”. You can define that however you see...

Anti-Jewish liberals? Here’s some evidence: Email from lib Dem John Kerry to “Joel JohanaJew”

ProudToBeCanadian Blog (Free subscription) | yesterday

I was going to call this blog entry “How liberals REALLY think” , but then I remembered how the liberals’ Canadian lamestream media division has been apoplectic this week and writing up a fake “news” story drummed-up by liberals and further lefties, concerning the Conservative Party sending out junk mail and (the lefties and their media say) how the Conservatives insinuate...

Response to ten percenter brouhaha

Morton's Musings (Free subscription) | yesterday

o The Liberal Party was the party that designated Hamas and Hezbollah as terrorist organizations in 2002, which made any financing of Hamas and Hezbollah illegal. o The Canadian delegation unequivocally condemned anti-semitism at Durban I. Canada then continued its presence at the express request of the Israeli and other governments. Indeed, it is because of the skillful Canadian negotiators that the...

Hi-Jinx And Fun Times In Canada's Parliament

Gen X at 40 (Free subscription) | yesterday

I had a sense that there was the word going out this week to raise little bubbles of discredit of the legislative process when young Tory Stephen Taylor ¹ put out the message "did you know that 15 minutes in the House of Commons costs the taxpayer $75,000?" Makes sense. Dad's out of town . Juniors have to be kept in line. With performances like these , well, he may be right: “Yesterday...

Chantal Hebert on old tired ideas

Dr Roy's Thoughts (Free subscription) | yesterday

Chantal Hebert makes a an interesting parallel between the rusting grit ship and the rusting separatist ship. Both of these groups seem to be fighting some battle from long ago. The separatists and the grits are both talking to themselves and many Quebecers and Canadians have stopped listening. It is interesting that pq is debating a motion to make Quebec Junoor colleges inaccessible to allophones...
