>�I�ve often been asked what clothes am I wearing, what shoes am I wearing, where do I get my hair cut,� said Stronach, resplendent in a brown velvet jacket and teal flounced blouse paired with a little grey tweed skirt. She wore modest heels and her ash-blonde hair was angled and lightly layered.

>She made the point yesterday to underscore the double standard that exists for women in politics, one of the themes of a wide-ranging speech to a crowd of about 600.

>Does anyone remember Harper being put through the ringer for not smiling enough - or his haircut? No - just me? Okay then.

>Merry Christmas!
>December 5th, 2005
>And if you�re anyone that�s non-christian I�m saying it just to offend you. And if you say �Happy Hanukkah� or �Joyous Quanza� to me expect a number two pencil in the eye - because I know you�re not trying to spread any sort of holiday cheer. I know you�re doing it to spite me. And I will repay you in kind.
>
>Are people this sensitive? Really? Last year my son�s Christmas pageant (not X-mas, not Eid, not Winter Solstice!) was called a Holiday Concert where they changed the words of �Silent Night� to something about cats and dogs! That offended me - in all seriousness (wish I could find the rant in my archives). But I did realize the need to include other religions and cultures. However, bastardizing Christmas for the sake of everyone else isn�t the solution in my opinion.
>
>What really pisses me off? Well, I was listening to 570NEWS this morning and they were talking about how some people are offended by people saying �Merry Christmas�! Here�s an idea for all the people that this offends - don�t participate. In fact - nevermind. The world obviously revolves around you.
>
>I don�t blame other cultures for this - I blame the damned armies of politically correct neophytes that think everything has to be equal. The shit disturbers that decided that a manhole cover needed a new name as not to offend women. Those idiot moonbats that call their girlfriends �life partners� because to do anything else would be degrading to women for some reason. The people that use terms like neocon and �hidden agenda� to further their politically correct goals and initiatives. That cloak themselves in the flag of human rights while extinguishing them at every turn.
>
>So to all of you - Merry Christmas and God Bless. I say it to you in order to offend.

>It�s bad when Peter Rempel likens Liberals and their media lapdogs to Nazi�s but okay when the Federal Transport Minister (yes - a Liberal) likens the Bloc to Nazi�s? Vive Le National Unity. The Liberals are obviously our only hope to bring Quebec back into the fold. How foolish of me to think otherwise�

>PM pushes NDP alliance - Not even a week into the election and the Liberals are running scared. Is this the beginning of �uniting the left?�
>
>�One of two people is going to become prime minister,� said Martin, 67. �It�s going to be (Conservative Leader) Stephen Harper or it�s going to be myself.�
>
>�With Stephen Harper and the Tories in power, we would see a much different Canada, a much more divisive Canada. And also we would see him and (Bloc Qu�b�cois Leader) Gilles Duceppe, if they get enough seats, working together to dismantle this country that all of us are so proud of.�
>
>Vive Le Fearmongering! Am I the only one that thinks Quebec seperation in a non-issue no matter who is elected? They�re gonna keep asking the question no matter who has seats at the Federal level. Duceppe is never gonna be prime minister and who can honestly think Harper would become Prime Minister and dismantle the country? The statement holds about as much intellectual water as a two ounce shot glass. The one Martin thinks we�re all drinking from whenever he opens his mouth and words come out.
>
>No leadership - just words.
>
>Maybe someone should tell Mr. Martin negative campaigning doesn�t work - but I�m sure he�ll figure it out from the opposition benches.
>
>Layton, 55, told reporters yesterday, �Mr. Hargrove is well-known for having his opinions and expressing them. � Our view is that the Liberals don�t deserve people�s support. We believe that having as many New Democrats as possible in this House produces the best results for working people. � I think we�ve shown that in the minority Parliament.�
>
>Hargrove said he hasn�t discussed his political stance with the NDP leader. �I haven�t talked to Layton,� he said. �I don�t report to Jack.�
>
>What�s funny about this is the fact that Jack reports to Buzz! And as long as the CAW supports Martin you can expect the union vote to go Liberal since Buzz is their leader. It�s funny that the Tories have raised themselves out of the mud pit and continue to lead the campaign. In fact - it�s great. Now back to Hockey Night in Canada�

>Martin says Harper being silent on key issues
>December 2nd, 2005
>Article Here
>
>**This Blog is now going to highlight how many times Martin says fundamental�
>
>Prime Minister Paul Martin says the Jan. 23 election is a fundamental clash of vision and values between his Liberals and Stephen Harper�s Conservatives.
>
>Speaking to the Canadian Auto Workers, Martin accused Harper of �being silent'� on key issues such as the economy, the environment and child care.
>
>He said �maybe he (Harper) is silent because he doesn�t want to let you know his intentions regarding private health care.'�
>
>And so class - this is the point where Paul Martin marches out the �scary� hidden agenda pony for all to see. Trying to raise doubt in the electorate. For a party that is (allegedly) running a positive campaign (contrary to news reports) Martin sure does talk about Harper a lot. And when he�s not bashing Harper he�s tackling the key issues of the day like his love for Canada and his loathing of the Americans.
>
>They had a while to come up with some new campaign material right? Oh, it get�s even better� Remember this one trick pony?
>
>Martin says only he or Harper will emerge as prime minister after the election, suggesting New Democrat supporters who strongly who oppose the Conservatives should vote Liberal to ensure there�s no change in government.

>A Lesson to Those Who Would Use Words to Smear Us
>December 2nd, 2005
>A lesson for the left�
>
>Conservative != Republican != NeoConservatives
>where (!=) is not equal
>
>Most people described as �neoconservatives� are members of the Republican Party. The term is used more often by those who oppose �neoconservative� politics than those who subscribe to them; indeed, many to whom the label is applied reject it. The term is frequently used pejoratively, both by self-described paleoconservatives, who oppose neoconservatism from the right, and by Democratic politicians opposing neoconservatives from the left. Recently, Democratic politicians have used the term to criticize the Republican policies and leaders of the current Bush administration.
>
>Now to a group of so-called intellectuals I�d like to note two things (1) I am not a neocon and (2) when our prime minister labeled the �right� in Canada �neo conservatives� he pushed this voter so far right that I am not just happy seeing him tossed out of office - I will make it my mission to stop people like him from ever being voted in again. People that have no grasp of the political landscape in this country. People that during an election campaign use pejorative terms to brush entire sections of the voting population deserve to be thrown out of office faster than it takes to read this post.

>I am a blogger - I can use the term moonbat whenever I damn well please because I�m not trying to represent a mosaic of thoughts and beliefs. I represent thoughts that are my own and how I feel. The amateur, fearmongering, speech writers of the Liberal campaign should chose their words with a little more care.

>Dan Matheson - Liberal Apologist?
>November 30th, 2005
>So I just watched the (I guess) nomination ceremony for Michael Ignatieff where he was heckled (which I cannot say I didn�t enjoy) and spewed rhetoric. What I found particularly disturbing was how Dan Matheson decided to editorialize after the news conference finished. I sat here and watched him basically tell the public that �everything will be ok - sometimes grown-ups fight� in regards to the heckler and the �democracy in action� nomination of Ignatieff.

>It was really sad how transparently partisan a respected news anchor can become during election time. If anyone actually has the footage - that will no doubt be culled from the webcast - could you send me a link?
>
>Also - it�s rumored that the Tory�s will not be aggressively campaigning in Newmarket-Aurora (this according to 640Toronto radio). Can someone confirm this?

>Dear Santa

>First� A brief diatribe�
>
>I refuse to write article after endless article about electioneering. I can�t believe the media�s biggest beef isn�t the sorry state of Canada but whether or not Stephen Harper professes his undying love for her. Yes - I shall use a classic adjective to describe the country that we all love. I think Peter Rempel says it all with his brief article Totalitarians in training. I especially love the weak retort by contributor BCL:
>
>I assume that you are saying the media are Nazis with the photo and caption, yes? Because those words came from them. If you are saying that Liberals and Liberal supporters are Nazis, then you have a problem. Actually - 35% of Canadians that support the Liberals do support their socialist agenda. So I would say the Liberals are as much �Nazi�s� as the Conservatives are �neo-cons�.

>Having just finished the books leading up to this point I find the Dune series of books intriguing. The Legends of Dune story arch is a must read for those who enjoy both politics and fantasy. It explores many interesting and familiar themes while tracing the origin of the blood feud between the Atreides and Harkonnen�s presented in Frank Herbert�s original classic Dune.
