Danielle Smith seemed nice and relaxed, Brian Mason did very well too. Sherman was way too stiff, and Redford sounded rehearsed.
Read moreLiveblogging the #abvote debate
As best as I can, I will be liveblogging the debate tonight starting at 6:30. You can also find me participating in the online chat on Sun News Network’s website, and also on Twitter. I will try to get a video blog entry out a bit later on.
Read moreStirring up a Hornet’s Nest. #wrp #pcaa #abvote
Well, my last post certainly stirred up a hornet’s nest of angry responses. Good. KikkiPlanet, of course, is the most vehement in her response: Let’s examine a few points here: First, calling Kikki a “Terrorist” isn’t an ad hominem “attack”. There is no such thing as an “ad hominem” attack. Ad hominem is a form of…
Read moreThe Terrorism Campaign Intensifies #pcaa #wrp #abvote
I’ve been accused, by using the term “terrorism” of insulting the victims of terrorism around the world. Let me be clear: that is not my intent. There is no disrespect. At all. The horrible events of 9/11 and other dates around the world ring loud and clear with me. I remember that morning like it…

Okay, so I didn’t produce this ad. But I wish I did, so I could take credit for it. [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGF4nYnWKU4?rel=0]

This is my first video blog entry. Well, if you count “Bye Bye Barlow” it’s actually my second. Either way, here it is.

Let me also indicate to…
Read moreMy Contribution to #occupyWallStreet, #occupyCanada, or whatever they call it this week.
The latest fad seems to be Occupy Wall Street activists posting photos of themselves holding hand-scrawled notes. Like this. I have submitted the photo shown here to the website. Somehow, I doubt it will get posted. Here’s the text: I am married. I have a child. I have a job. I own my home. It…
Read moreMucking Around with Electoral Reform
With the re-election of Stephen Harper‘s Conservatives to Parliament with a majority of the seats in the House of Commons, a large number of calls for electoral reform are being raised. The old, tired, and inaccurate arguments of “60% of the voters voted against Stephen Harper” are being raised, yet again. I too used a similar…
Read moreWhat’s next for the Conservatives
Now that the campaign is over – and what a roller coaster of a campaign it was, full of ups, downs, lefts, rights, uprisings, and happy endings! Now that it’s over, and we finally have stability for four years, it’s time, I think, to express my opinion on how Stephen Harper should conduct the next…
