TPM and others are having a lot of fun over the fact that George W. Bush is heading out on the motivational speaking circuit. And, I agree that, even when you consider that other politicos such as Colin Powell, Elizabeth Dole, and Rudy Giuliani, have been doing gigs with Zig Ziglar and his ilk for years, there is something kind of undignified about a former president appearing on that stage. That...
The leader of the Communist Party of Canada is decidedly unhappy about a proposed monument in Ottawa that will honour “victims of totalitarian communism.” Party leader Miguel Figueroa is asking other “left and progressive organizations” to urge the National Capital Commission to reverse its approval for the project, which Figueroa describes as “defamatory.” ottawacitizen...
So, further to my earlier post about historical revisionism and lily-livered political correctness and this whole not offending anyone crap. Cue grumpy rant. In this morning’s Ottawa Citizen this story appears. Apparently, the leader of the Communist Party of Canada is decidedly unhappy about a proposed monument in Ottawa that will honour “victims of totalitarian communism.” Party...
This is beyond priceless. As the NCC Board worried, the leader of the Communist Party of Canada is NOT HAPPY about the proposed monument to the victims of totalitarian communism. Miguel Figueroa says: “In our considered view, the monument would constitute an unjust attack on the pride Canadian Communists feel for our pioneering contributions to Canada [...]
The Great Wall Embraces Wall Street [Climate Swindle] | Marc Gunther | Reuters This could lay the groundwork for a mandatory market in the not-too-distant future. That, at least, was my takeaway from a Low Carbon Conference held in New York that brought together leaders of the world’s big stock exchanges, energy industry executives, environmentalists and experts in carbon finance. [Disclosure:...

Try not to be alarmed, but enemies may have infiltrated our corporate sector. For all we know, the head of an Ontario telecom firm could be a Taliban sympathizer, the vice-president of a B.C. developer, an Ahmedinejad fan. CSIS doesn't background check every entrepreneur and executive. But then, it doesn't need to. Any business must abide by Canadian law, regardless of its stakeholders' politics....
O ne hopes Ben Bernanke and the Fed gang are reading the Drudge Report, where the top news items one day last week were: Enlarged U.S. deficits allow Switzerland to displace the United States as the world’s most competitive economy; Obama asks the Senate to raise the debt ceiling beyond its current $12.1 trillion level; the United Nations continues its push for a “global currency”...
Must not offend Communists in Canada We read: "A new monument in Ottawa to commemorate the victims of some sort of oppression was approved by the National Capital Commission’s board of directors Thursday, but the decision has left those proposing the monument confused as to what, exactly, was approved. “We don’t really understand the decision at this point,” said Tim Egan...
If you want to see how and why so many otherwise enlightened people have fallen for the snake oil of the Chinese Communist Party, look no further than the New York Times ' Tom Friedman. Friedman embarasses himself with an ode to the "enlightened" CCP in his latest column: One-party autocracy certainly has its drawbacks. But when it is led by a reasonably enlightened group of people, as China...
This phrase, “political correctness,” adjective “politically correct,” is a blessing and a curse. It is a blessing because it gives a name to something that does not wish to be named: to a “syndrome” in the old Greek sense, of “things that run together.” It was once a Maoist phrase, expressing a Leninist idea. Something could be “politically correct”...

It was accidently shown to high school students this past week ... have a bucket ready: ... too bad for the O-bots who came up with piece of cult crap that most Americans have figured them out. There's a lot of "pledging" going on alright ... pledging to get off the couch and defeat Democrats by the truck load in...
In case you missed it, the United States has just two months remaining before it collapses into ruin, and big chunks of its territory are grabbed by its friends and allies, including Canada. Russiatoday.com reminds us that Prof. Igor Panarin, doctor of political science and dean of the foreign affairs department at the Diplomacy Academy of the Russian Foreign Ministry, has been predicting the end...
BEING A former Trotskyist, I still get a vicarious kick out of watching worldwide organisations knock seven shades out of each other, in vicious factional infighting over the correct application of a belief system largely incomprehensible to outsiders. Recent events within the Anglican Communion have provided me with more fun than just about anything else since the bitter and protracted 1980s split...
