Harper: The Nudes Collection
A BoB pictorial: Since a painting of Prime Minister Stephen Harper lounging nude on a chaise longue emerged on Friday (including all his emerging parts), reaction has been swift, and a little green at the gills. The painting by Kingston artist Margaret Sutherland, titled “”Emperor Haute Couture” (a reference to Hans Christian Andersen’s story of [...]
Why Mulcair is winning
By Montreal Simon OK. So I was wrong. When Christy Clark became the latest Con stooge to denounce Thomas Mulcair, for simply pointing out that the Dutch Disease is killing our manufacturing sector, I said it could only mean one thing. Big Oil and its Con puppets were scraping the bottom of the barrel. But [...]
Woodworth’s motion aborted
By Montreal Simon Gawd. What a horrible way to begin my day. All I could think of was Stephen “Woody” Woodworth polishing his big teeth, and preparing for his big day. Even my egg started to look like him, and I hardly dared boil it, in case it should hatch. For who knows when life [...]
Robocalls: The seven deadly ridings
By Allison@Creekside As a follow up to my earlier chart showing Steve’s Margin of Victory in ridings with the closest vote margins, I’ve adjusted it to include only the seven being contested in court for voter fraud and added two columns of polling data from an EKOS research paper based on a recent phone survey [...]
Alberta election’s biggest loser: Stephen Harper
By Frank Moher I’ll leave it to others to dissect why the PC’s ended up trouncing Wildrose in Alberta, despite all the polls and predictions. What interests me is what this portends for Stephen Harper and company. Whether by happenstance or design, Wildrose leader Danielle Smith is a near-clone of Harper (except for her much-remarked [...]
A Modest Opinion – Where’s the Canadian Dream?
By Nathaniel Moher You know what Canada lacks? The American Dream. We don’t even have some lesser Canadian version of the American Dream (like how we have whatever our version of American Idol is called, or whatever our version of America’s Got Talent is called). And it’s our lack of the American Dream that has [...]
F-35: Lies and damn liars
By Saskboy Our top Ministers of our Canadian Government are so very disgraceful. They continue to lie to us, after being caught by multiple non-partisan authorities. It’s often claimed that people expect politicians to lie, but there’s been an understanding in Ottawa that it was taboo for Ministers to lie to Parliament rather than simply [...]
“The Postmedia chain has turned against the PM. Period.”
An anonymous missive has appeared on The Gazetteer, purporting to be from “a newsworker at Postmedia” and offering an explanation for that chain’s sudden turn against the Harper Conservatives. The Gazetter‘s proprietor, RossK, had wondered if aggressive work on the robocall file and other signs of journalistic life at Conrad Black’s former playthingie meant some [...]
Stephen Woodworth takes on the breeding vessels
By Alison@Creekside Steve, one year ago: “I’m not opening this debate (on abortion). I don’t want it opened. I have not wanted it opened. I haven’t opened it as Prime Minister. I’m not going to open it. The public doesn’t want to open it. This is not the priority of the Canadian public or this [...]
A Modest Opinion – A penny … er … a nickel for my thoughts
By Nathaniel Moher I am outraged! Are you guys outraged?! That’s a stupid question, of course you are, because I’m outraged and, because I form your opinions for you based on my opinions, that means you guys are outraged too! And that’s good, because I’m going to do something I don’t often do – vent! [...]
