The Muslim world is erupting and Obama sits on the fence, while Hillary dithers. He started it by bowing to US enemies and blowing off US friends, like he did with Canada and our security seat. He is a disaster. The US has gone from powerhouse to laughing stock. I honestly worry about what will happen in the next 2 years of Obama's reign. Can the US hold it together long enough to survive?
The street revolts in Tunisia and Egypt show that the United States can do very little to save its friends from the wrath of their citizens.Jimmy Carter will go down in American history as "the president who lost Iran," which during his term went from being a major strategic ally of the United States to being the revolutionary Islamic Republic. Barack Obama will be remembered as the president who "lost" Turkey, Lebanon and Egypt, and during whose tenure America's alliances in the Middle East crumbled.
The east is in turmoil. There are very few safe havens left in this world of ours. Can the US turn to a successful businessman to lead them? I'm not so sure he's the one to lead them, I like Palin much better, but he's better than lots of other Republican candidates.
Donald Trump is mad as hell — and he’s letting everybody know it. In a wide-ranging exclusive interview with Newsmax.TV on Friday, the billionaire real estate mogul and reality TV star lashes out at China, OPEC, Obama’s Middle East dealings, the president’s State of the Union address and more.
He also complains that the United States is a “laughing stock” throughout the world — and confirms that he is seriously considering running for president in 2012.
Obama vs Trump? A community organizer vs a self made billionaire? Hummm, let me think about that one. Personally, at this point, ANYONE would be better than Obama.
Help is coming. Our PM is going to the US to talk to President Obama on Friday. This is, as far as I know, an unscheduled visit. Why? I suspect that Obama is wanting some advise on the Middle East and recognizes that PM Harper is a smart man, with a strong moral and political sense of what to do. Face to face so no wiki-leaks happen.
If nothing else, call on the useless UN to intervene and make sure that Egyptians actually get to vote in a fair and democratic election in September. Do not let a fake "intern" government take over Egypt, like Hezbollah has taken over Lebanon. Once that happens the Egyptians will be no better off than they were before, they will have just exchanged one dictator for another.
Keep warm my American friends, both blizzards will eventually end.
It's easy, reduce business taxes, increase jobs and investment income. Only NDP voters lack the intellect to understand that simple logic, oops, I mean only lefties like the Liberals, NDP and Bloc can't understand the concept of reducing taxes to encourage investment. It appears David Akins suffers from the same disease.
A new poll, taken exclusively for QMI Agency, finds that four in 10 Canadians believe that not only should the government scrap a planned round of corporate tax cuts, the government should be hiking corporate income taxes.
When does 40% make up a majority? The opposition are quick to tell us that ONLY 38% voted for the Conservatives and therefore a majority of people didn't. Now it appears that 40% is a majority when it comes to corporate tax increases. Okay, let's increase taxes for all those corporations that have unions, make the unions pay the new taxes from their wages. Let's see how they squeal then.
Something else the MSM is failing to tell people. The tax reductions has already been passed with the help of the Liberals. Yes, you heard that right, the tax reductions are already law. Why are the Liberals bleating about it, when they voted for it? They are using the emotional angle. Big, bad, corporations are getting a tax break. Those CEO's are raking in the dough, and people are starving in the streets! People forget that corporations employ people. Let the unions create jobs. Give me an example of one union that has created jobs, ever. They take dues from the workers and use those dues to get politically involved, like their support of Palestine. They are not democratic, they FORCE their members to give them money, and the members have no say in how they spend it. Talk about dictators.
Liberals are showing how hypocritical they really are, they vote for corporate tax reductions and then reverse their position and are against them. Flip flop, flip flop, like a fish out of water.
I was amazed that people are stunned enough to protest "fake" CBC cuts, declaring "I Love CBC". I guess they think over a BILLION a YEAR to CBC is not enough. Funny I bet those are the same people who think money spent on our military should be spent on the homeless instead. Pinheads.
I decided that I needed to protest CBC, but don't have the time to gather in front of my nearest government/CBC office. My solution is to create a bumper sticker so I can protest everyday to and from work. I found a site that will allow me to create my own bumper sticker for just $5 plus shipping, but I would like some creative help.
Should I stick with the basic "I hate CBC", or go with the "Honk if you hate CBC", or how about "De-fund CBC"? Remember, I'm in Conservative country, so I can be bold. I'm not comfortable with the "hate" word, so help me create a really catchy slogan I can be proud to display on my car.
I have faith in your creativity, be it a slogan or a logo.
Someone missing a cat? ------------------------------------------------------ A little old lady was walking down the street dragging two large plastic garbage bags behind her.
One of the bags was ripped and every once in a while a $20 fell out onto the sidewalk.
Noticing this, a policeman stopped her, and said, "Ma'am, there are $20 bills falling out of that bag."
"Oh really? Darn it!" said the little old lady. "I'd better go back and see if I can find them.. Thanks for telling me officer."
Well, now, not so fast," said the cop. Where did you get all that money? You didn't steal it, did you?" "Oh, no, no", said the old lady. "You see, my back yard is right next to the Golf course.
On Golf days, a lot of Golfers come and pee through a knot hole in the fence, right into my flower garden. It used to really tick me off. Kills the flowers, you know. Then I thought, 'why not make the best of it?
So, now, I stand behind the fence by the knot hole, real quiet, with my hedge clippers. Every time some guy sticks his thing through my fence, I surprise him, grab hold of it and say, 'O.K., buddy! Give me $20, or off it comes.'
"Well, that seems only fair," said the cop, laughing. "OK. Good luck! Oh, by the way, what's in the other bag?"
"Well, you know", said the little old lady, "not everybody pays." --------------------------------------------------------- Two Cajuns, Boudreaux and Thibodeaux, were adrift in a lifeboat. While rummaging through the boat's provisions, Boudreaux stumbled across an old lamp. He rubbed the lamp vigorously and a genie came forth.. This genie, however, stated that he could only deliver one wish, not the standard three. Boudreaux immediately blurted out, 'Turn the entire ocean into Budweiser beer! The genie clapped his hands with a deafening crash, and immediately the sea turned into beer and the genie vanished. Only the gentle lapping of beer on the hull broke the stillness as the two men considered their circumstances. Thibodeaux looked disgustedly at Boudreaux whose wish had been granted. After a long, tension-filled moment Thibodeaux said, 'Nice going Boudreaux! ........Now we're going to have to pee in the boat.' ------------------------------------------------------------- Keeping with the beer theme:

Are these people serious? A rally to support CBC against "imaginary" cuts? What cuts? Oh do they mean the cuts that "might" happen if the Conservative party gets a "dreaded" majority? I used to think all the nut bars were in the NDP party, but it seems the NDP are the reasonable ones these days.
The group, called I Love CBC-Peterborough, announced a postcard campaign to save the public broadcaster from federal cuts and handed out “I Love the CBC” bumper stickers at the Peterborough Public Library before marching downtown.
The group is a branch several CBC support groups that have launched since a local member of Parliament – and a parliamentary secretary to the minister of Canadian heritage - quipped publicly in 2010 about pulling the plug on the CBC.
“Maybe it’s time we get out of the broadcasting business,” Peterborough MP Dean Del Mastro said in November.
“There’s a suspicion among this group that the Conservative Party is hostile to the CBC,” Roy Brady, one of the rally organizers, said at the rally.
Kady Denton, another organizer of Thursday's march, said she has heard from many people in Peterborough that they are embarrassed by Del Mastro's comment.
“We want the government to recognize the CBC as a national treasure,” she said.
Oh my God, they want the CBC recognized as a national treasure? Seriously, these people walk among us. I say, if they "love" the CBC soooo much, they can support them as a public broadcaster. You "love" them so much, you pay for them! Leave me out of it. I want none of my taxes going towards this Liberal shrill organization. Dean Del Mastro is correct, the government has no business funding this useless organization with our tax dollars, same goes for the UN.
Same goes for the separatist Bloc, who use blackmail to get what they want (huge pensions paid for by all Canadians). Gary Clement has them pegged to a tee!
Maybe we should start a facebook group called "I Hate CBC" and see who gets more hits. No, that would be childish, and only make us lower ourselves to the protester level, which is a tool the Liberals and NDP use without a thought and of course the media never calls them "attack facebook groups".
I'm sure that people in the east thought the Reform party was bad for Canada when it first arrived on the scene, but the Reform party never wanted Alberta to separate. Not like the Bloc, who actively campaign for Quebec to leave Canada.
I like Quebec in Canada. The province is unique and adds a special flavour that makes Canada more interesting, but so does PEI. Funny how you never see PEI crying for more money from the rest of Canada even though they have very little industry or job opportunities. (Thanks PEI for sending my husband to Alberta!)
So, why does Quebec think that they are MORE special than any other Canadian province? Why do they continue to vote for a party that wants to separate from Canada, then whine when they don't get that hockey arena paid for by the rest of Canada. They are pro's at using threats to keep Canada "unified".
Quebec politicians often seek de facto bribes from Ottawa — whether in the form of cold cash or more symbolic gestures. And usually, Ottawa gives in. This explains why our equalization system is skewed so as to deliver a multi-billion-dollar jackpot to Quebec every year; not to mention Paul Martin’s “asymmetric federalism,” and Stephen Harper’s declaration that Quebec constitutes a “nation.” These shakedowns have come to define the Canadian political condition.
On Wednesday, Mr. Duceppe took things to a crassly chutzpadik new level, demanding that Quebec receive a cool $5-billion from Ottawa as his price for supporting the upcoming budget. How did he arrive at this figure? By adding together a bunch of stale demands from yesteryear — including $421-million for dealing with the great ice storm of 1998.
Are you kidding me? Is this what Quebec really wants? Do they have no shame? Quebec has gone from the victim to the predator, but we already knew that didn't we? I keep thinking how the western provinces have so much in common with Quebec. We all want more control over provincial jurisdictions. We want the federal government to stay out of our way, and give us room to grow. Where the western provinces differ from Quebec is that we want to do it without welfare from all other provinces. Quebec has no excuse for taking transfer payments from other provinces. The transfer payments are like bedbugs, once you have them, they are very hard to get rid of.
If Quebec keeps voting for the Bloc, they will continue to isolate themselves from Canada, and I hope that isn't really what they want.
My message to PM Harper is very serious, it could mean the difference between a united Canada or a nation in pieces (Hint: It's not Quebec that will separate).
Do not give in to Duceppe's demands, it is blackmail, plain and simple. The Bloc MP's refuse to sing "Oh Canada" in our Parliament, a blatant snub to ALL Canadians. Do not give any money to an arena in Quebec. If this means you will not get a majority next election, so be it. You need to show Quebec that they can not blackmail us anymore. They might even surprise you and vote for you because you stood tall on issues that concern ALL Canadians, not just Quebec.
To the people of Quebec, think very hard about what you do to Canada when you vote for a party that wants you to stop being Canadians. Stop being so selfish. It's easy to vote for the Bloc as a protest (or that's how you justify voting for a party that wants to destroy the Canada we know), but understand that it makes other Canadians angry. Angry because you do not love our Canada as much as we do, if you did you could never vote for a separatist party. NEVER.
As we in Alberta say thanks and goodbye to Stelmach as our Premier, we need to think about how he got to be our Premier. Lefties signed up for party membership to vote for Jim Dinning and allowed Stelmach to come up the middle and win. That's what meddling in an election gets you, like the Liberals ended up with Dion, the third place choice.
Stelmach is a good and honest man, who was like a fish out of water, he is a perfect example of Peter's Principle, he was elevated one step too many. I believe that he is trying to save the PC party by retiring, but I wonder if it is not too late. I don't think it is his fault, the government is stale and too liberal, even a new leader might not help. Might not. The leader will be important. Fresh, new blood is needed.
I had already decided to vote for Wildrose next election if they ran a candidate in my riding, now the game has changed. My vote is going to depend on who the PC's pick for a leader. I'm sure Morton is the front runner, but he is not new, and he has less charisma than Stelmach did. No other PC MLA rings any vote bell with me, and if it comes down to Morton as the new leader, my vote bell is just a hollow ringing in the back of my head. The glow is off of Morton, his timing was off, he should have run for the Wildrose leadership, now he is just an old PC MLA.
Run, Monte, Run! Monte Solberg as leader would return my vote to the PC's. He is young, dynamic, Conservative and smart. He also wouldn't take any guff from special interest groups, other Premiers, or even PM Harper. With him in Alberta and Premier Wall in Saskatchewan, maybe a new Conservative government in Manitoba, the west would continue rising! The east would only be able to look on with envy, or get smart and go with the Conservative flow.
Jim Prentice might also get my vote, but he's a bit too small c conservative for me. He reminds me more of a Dinning type candidate. He's too politically correct for a young dynamic Alberta. We need a champion.
Alberta needs a true Conservative government, not like the blue liberal crew we seem to have now. You can already see the "labeling" going on in the media calling the Wildrose Alliance party "far-right". Little does the eastern media understand that a label like that is guaranteed to drive more votes towards the Wildrose, than away. A good mix of new Wildrose MLA's and some of the old PC's could work really well FOR Alberta.
These are just my initial thoughts on a situation that is sure to change in the next year here in Alberta. Finally, we might have an exciting election. Oh, and to the three lefty Alberta parties... good luck on splitting the 20% vote between you all.
This time you lefties should stay out of other parties leadership campaigns. How would you Liberals have liked it if all us Conservatives (and there are a lot of us) had signed up to vote for your leader? You can show your support for your party by voting for them next election. Keep it honest this time. Let PC members vote for their new leader without interference.
Belated Congrats Conservative party and PM Harper (I still love saying that!). Five years in a minority government and still kicking (Can I say kick or is that too violent?). My prediction is that we will not have an election this year, so it will be five plus 1. Then the Conservatives will get their majority giving them 4 years to get things done, leading us to 5 plus 1 plus 4 = 10.
To see PM Harper's speech go here to CTV. Ignore the comments, lefties are Harper Haters. It's as disgusting as the lefties blaming Sarah and the Tea Party for a deranged man shooting and killing people at a political rally. Rational is not a term lefties understand, I dare not mention common sense!
If the Conservatives get a majority what would we see? The end of the long gun registry (hello lefties, not a big surprise and the reason many lefty MP's are going to lose their seats!).
An elected Senate. (What's so scary about that?).
The demise of the CWB monopoly (thank goodness. How stupid is it that western farmers are forced to sell their grain to the CWB while eastern farmers can sell their grains to anyone they want?)
More criminals behind bars for longer, (It's about time, and don't believe the lefty propaganda that crime is decreasing.) My husbands truck (yes we are rednecks, and proud of it!) was broken into, we reported it and the police just said call your insurance company, no formal report was written, so it doesn't appear in StatsCan data. I'm pretty sure we aren't the only ones this has happened to.
5 plus 1 plus 4 = 10 (at least) years that the Conservatives will be in power. Suck it up lefties. You want a cleaner environment? Go to China, they need help cleaning up their pollution. You want to give women in third world countries the abortion option? Go over there and help that goal come true, but don't expect me to pay for it. Learn to raise your own funds, don't come running to the government for your grants and entitlements, taxpayers are sick of everyone with outstretched hands and no results.
What would you like to see done for Canadians, in the next 5 years of Conservative government? What is your priority?
I want a reduction of the deficit and debt. Interest rates are only going up, so we need to manage our debt, and that includes provinces, municipalities and hospitals.
The media needs to sell papers so "attack ads" sells more than "truth ads". Let's get real, all political parties put out ads, some are serious, some are pointed at policies, some are pointed at leaders, and some are even funny. No matter how hard the media tries to shape public opinion on the ads, if they ring true with the intended audience, they are successful ads.
Here' s an ad that I think should have been very effective:
Seeing as Doer was re-elected, it couldn't have been as effective as desired. One of the most effective ads, that I remember from the 2006 election, wasn't even by a political party, and it wasn't intended to be political, but every single time I saw it, I thought about the Liberals, so thanks Capital One!
Whoever does the Capital One ads needs a raise! That ad alone helped to give votes to the Conservative party because adscam was still fresh in voters minds.
The media coverage is making Liberals into victims of big bad Conservatives. Poor babies. As if the Liberals or NDP have never put out "attack ads", like this one:
That ad didn't work as Brad Wall is now the Premier of Saskatchewan. I tend to like the funny engaging ads the best, but I remember the truly negative ads the most, like the Liberals "Soldiers in our Streets" ad that never actually aired, but the blog-sphere got the word out on that one really quickly, and the TV news stations were forced to air it.
Do "attack ads" work? Yes, but mostly only for the people who have already made up their minds. Can they give the final push into determining my vote? Probably. I liked Stockwell Day's jetski stunt, it made him look young and dynamic, compared to Chretien. Then the lefty media got really cruel, calling him "Doris Day", and a bright star was dimmed. I still really like him and think he got a raw deal from the Liberal friendly media, but that's what Conservatives have to expect. Steven Harper get's no breaks from the media, but he is too strong in character to buckle under the lefty media pressure, and that has the media in a tizzy! He makes them look like fools, and it looks good on them.
Here is an idea, let's take the media on. Blog more about their bias, comment more at their sites, and watch the political shows less. Lower their viewership and therefore their ad income. I would love to see what has happened to CTV's viewership since Duffy has left. I suspect it has gone down. Conservatives are not noted for being "activists", I have never protested anything in my life, but I find it very easy to email my MLA, Senator, or MP, depending on what I am ticked off about at the time. It is getting easier to make your point by contacting companies, like those who have said they are going to boycott the oilsands, and then quickly back down because the silent majority is finally finding it's voice. Find your voice, stop being drowned out and dictated to by the radical, boisterous lefties.
Sister Mary Ann, who worked for a home health agency, was out making her rounds visiting home bound patients when she ran out of gas.
As luck would have it, a Texaco Gasoline station was just a block away. She walked to the station to borrow a gas can and buy some gas. The attendant told her that the only gas can had been loaned out, but she could wait until it was returned. HOWEVER, Sister Mary Ann was on the way to see a patient, so she decided not to wait... and walked back to her car.
She looked for something in her car that she could fill with gas and spotted the bedpan she was taking to the patient! Always resourceful, Sister Mary Ann carried the bedpan to the station, filled it with gasoline, and carried the full bedpan back to her car.
As she was pouring the gas into her tank, two Protestants watched from across the street. One of them turned to the other and said, 'If it starts, I'm turning Catholic.' ---------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------ A hunter and his friend were sitting in a tall tower stand near Highway 7 early one cold December morning. Suddenly, a huge buck walked out over the corn they had spread in the low shrubs. The buck was magnificent, a once in a lifetime animal. His rack was huge. The hunter's hand shook as his mind was already counting the Boone and Crockett points. Moving quickly, the hunter carefully aimed the Leopold scope on his .300 Win Mag at the unsuspecting buck. As he was about to squeeze the trigger on this deer of a lifetime, his friend alerted him to a funeral procession passing slowly down Highway 7.
The hunter pulled away from the gun stock, set the rifle down, took off his hat, bowed his head and then closed his eyes in prayer.
His friend was stunned, "Wow, that is the most thoughtful and touching thing I have ever seen you do. You actually let that trophy deer go to pay respects to a passing funeral procession.
You are indeed the kindest man I have ever known, and I feel lucky to call you a friend."
The hunter shrugged. "Yeah, well, we were married for 37 years." ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------- Can you cry under water?

Whatever happened to our ability to protect our property? If, as a woman, I spray a potential rapist with dog spray, will I become the criminal instead of the victim? It seems to me that I would be in big trouble with the law for fighting off the rapist. This is an indication of how sick our society has become, when even the victims are prosecuted by our courts.
I used to respect our police. They stood for honour and valour. They represented all that was good in our society. I thought they stood for protecting the victims. Seems I am wrong.
Some creeps come to burn your house and property down, and you run out with a gun and shoot it, without harming anyone, even though you could have, and YOU get charged. Disgusting. Now you have huge lawyers bills to pay because you have to defend your actions to the lefty judges who coddle the criminals and ignore the victims. ENOUGH!
The incident began six years of trouble for Mr. Thomson that culminated early one Sunday morning last August when the 53-year-old former mobile-crane operator woke up to the sound of three masked men firebombing his Port Colborne, Ont., home.
“I was horrified,” he said. “I couldn’t believe it. I didn’t know what was happening. I had no idea what was going on.”
So Mr. Thomson, a former firearms instructor, grabbed one of his Smith & Wesson revolvers from his safe, loaded it and headed outside dressed in only his underwear.
“He exited his house and fired his revolver two, maybe three times, we’re not sure. Then these firebombing culprits, they ran off,” said his lawyer, Edward Burlew.
This is totally unacceptable. We have no property rights, and now we have police who are more likely to jail you for protecting yourself and your property, then going after the real criminals. Did I already say...disgusting?
It makes me so sad. Our police are now not to be trusted. I would trust truck drivers to do the right thing before I trusted our police anymore.
Orist Tchozewski, who was transporting dirt to the Sarcee landfill on the Tsuu T'ina reserve on Tuesday, said his colleague saw two females in a black pick-up truck drop some puppies at the dump and speed away.
On his first trip of the day, Tchozewski saw three elusive pups in the midst of the trash and tried to feed them sandwiches he'd brought to work.
The next day, after Tchozewski's shift ended, his conscience forced him to return and search for the puppies.
"The one had passed away and the other two were in the mounds of dirt huddling together just trying to stay alive," he said.
"They were literally almost comatose."
I think our police are comatose these days. I know they have to uphold the law, but couldn't they use some common sense once in awhile? That goes for our politically correct prosecutors...or is persecutors more apt .
Can I say guns anymore, or is it taboo? Who cares, this political correctness junk has gone too far anyways. Guns, guns, guns, guns.....there it's out of my system now. Who are those young "guns"?
Two very impressive Ministers, Kenney and Moore, with lots of other young "guns" for backup, like Mike Lake, James Rajotte, Minister Rona Ambrose (you go girl!), and Pierre Poilievre (this guy is a hoot). What these MP's bring is energy and most important they actually get things done.
Ministers Moore and Kenney gave a one, two "punch" (is punch allowed? I'm getting so confused about this politically correct stuff.) today by making sure that free speech triumphed over a repressive dictatorship or threats of protests.
Heritage Minister James Moore says the screening of a controversial documentary about Iran's nuclear program will be rescheduled, a day after the event was cancelled due to reported threats to staff at Ottawa's Library and Archives of Canada.
.....
Immigration Minister Jason Kenney similarly expressed his outrage over the incident.
"The cancellation of tonight's screening of Iranium is outrageous," he tweeted Tuesday evening, adding that he hoped the event's organizers would "overcome intimidation."
These two Minister's reacted quickly and decisively. I bet they didn't even contact PM Harper before acting, they have the power of their Ministries, and the lefties just can't adjust to that fact, even after 5 years.
I want to thank James and Jason for understanding what freedom of speech really means to people who do not have it. Good job "guys" (Is guys allowed or should I have said "people" to be more inclusive?)
James Moore is smoking hot ( can I say that?) in this interview. He is clearly upset and very passionate (is this allowed?) about this issue, and the CBC guy can't get any traction with his questions. More Ministers need to show their passion (ouch is that too provocative?) over issues like Minister Moore did.
One very noticeable thing about Conservative MP's is that they are young, full of energy and dedicated to their constituents and their principles. Can this be said about Liberals, young or old? Think Ralph Goodale, Ruby Dhalla, Hedi Fry, Wayne Easter (I am going to denounce my PEI relatives if they keep voting for the likes of Easter).
What the Conservatives have that other parties are missing, is the dedication to making Canada a better place for everyone. They also have young MP's who have gained a lot of experience in the last 5 years. Look at the Liberal MP's, they are old (Goodale), shrill (Carolyn Bennett/Hedy Fry/Wayne Easter/Mark Holland), and have never met a principle that they wouldn't throw out for votes. The Liberals need to refresh and find some policies.
I like the Impressive Young "Ones" (being politically correct), they are refreshing in an Ottawa climate of stagnant, stale, out for me, politicians.
It's not a big revelation that lefties don't like a flat tax. They prefer to tax the "wealthy" to death and demonize the bad corporations who actually manage to have a profit. That's why Ignatieff wants to increase corporate taxes to 18%. It's easy to make corporations the demons and the downtrodden "poor" the victims. Maybe a flat tax for all is the answer!
Look what I found when I googled "flat tax Alberta" A supposedly "non-partisan" organization that states that the flat tax is costing Albertans over 5 billion.
EDMONTON— A new fact sheet released this morning by the University of Alberta’s Parkland Institute says that the “flat tax,” introduced by Ralph Klein in 2001, is costing the province in excess of $5 billion a year. Given the projected deficit of $4.3 billion this year, simply returning to the progressive tax structure that existed in 1999 would be more than enough to move the province from a deficit budget to a surplus budget.
The fact sheet, entitled Giving Away the Golden Egg, also highlights the amount of room the province has to reform its current tax system—Alberta could collect an extra $10 billion to $18 billion per year in taxes and still be competitive with other Canadian provinces.
Hey, fact sheet, those extra taxes will come out of my income, so big NO. Make Quebec pay us back all the money we have sent them. We don't want to be competitive with other provinces, we want to be in the lead! Lower taxes, more development and income for Albertans!
More about Parkland Institute, from their own mouths to our ears:
The Parkland Institute is an Alberta research network situated within the Faculty of Arts at the University of Alberta. It operates within the established and distinctive tradition of Canadian political economy and is non-partisan.
The Faculty of Arts? Wow that impresses me to no end, I loved all my Arts courses at the U of A, they were guaranteed 9's for my grade point average. So, how "non-partisan" are they? Here's a hint....
Parkland Institute includes those who are involved in interdisciplinary and socially-engaged thinking. In the broader Alberta community, Parkland Institute works with religious organizations, professionals, trade unionists, the arts community, non-profit organizations, environmentalists, feminists, social movement activists, private sector individuals and other interested individuals.
Non-partisan my butt! Unions, feminists, social "movement" activists, environmentalists? Seriously? How about their "hero"?
1.1 History Parkland began in 1996, with three years of seed funding from the Faculty of Arts. Its inaugural book, Shredding the Public Interest, by Kevin Taft, was co-published with the University of Alberta Press. It was a publishing success, selling about 13,000 copies in Alberta in the six weeks leading up to the March 1997 provincial election. For context, the standard measure used by Canadian booksellers for a Canadian best seller is 5,000 books sold in one year. Dave King, former Education Minister in Peter Lougheed’s Conservative government acknowledged that the book had an enormous impact on the election. The Economist stated that "Mr. Taft may be right...Maybe the whole 'Klein Revolution' as it is called, was unnecessary."i Since then, Parkland Institute has published 32 reports, five more books and over 50 op-ed articles. The reports were written by 25 different authors. The opinion pieces were written mostly by the Director, the Research Director and the Executive Director. The work consistently meets a high standard with all reports and papers peer-reviewed before publication.
Kevin Taft? Now why does that name ring a bell? Oh, right....
Ohhhh, and they have published 32 "PEER" reviewed reports. We all know how well those "PEER" reviewed global warming papers are doing now, don't we?
Personally, I think a flat tax works better than the progressive tax we have. The "poor" pay less and the "rich" can't hide their money from taxation. You won't hear that from the lefties, because they are the masters of hiding their income from us everyday taxpayers, ex-PM Paul Martin and his ships come to mind.
I wasn't aware that we were in election mode, but with Iggy doing his 20-11 tour and Layton doing a tour of his own, I guess we should get ready for one in the spring. I say, if the opposition parties want an election, bring it on!
What's so funny is that the opposition can go all over the world, (Rae and Duceppe) ranting and raving, but the Conservatives release some ads, and the left go ballistic. You see, the left want Conservative voices silenced, we are a disease that needs to be wiped out, a movement that impedes their goal for power. We can not stand up for ourselves, we are not allowed to use facts to tear down their ideas, like global warming. They can spew filth and talk about killing but a few ads quoting Ignatieff's true words sends them into a tail spin. Listen carefully to Ignatieff at this "pep" rally, also listen to a person in the crowd yell ( at about 45 sec) out "kill him". Funny, the lefty press sure hasn't reported on this incidence.
Iggy also forgets that he is not in the House of Commons and does not have immunity when he calls MP Baird all sorts of names. If that had been a Conservative, you can bet they would have been replaying it every second of every day for weeks. It shows how immature Ignatieff is and how lefties think.
Didn't Scott Reid also write an article where he asked lefties to "kill him" meaning PM Harper? Funny it seems the Globe and Mail has revised it. Here is the original quote:
Quote: This becomes relevant because suddenly, he is weak. In fact, at this particular moment, he is almost unable to defend himself. Owing to a ridiculously ill-considered act of hubris, he has laid himself vulnerable to his opponents. Their imperative could not be more clear: kill him. Kill him dead. Do not, whatever you do, provide him with an opportunity to extend his hold on power. Because you can be damn certain he will never again be so reckless as to give you a chance to finish him off.
Here is the Globe and Mail doing a "revised" article, without even an apology to our Prime Minister, stupid lefty media:
I was going to post that awful ad that the Liberals used in the 2004 election, where a REAL gun was pointed at us. If that isn't an attack ad, I don't know what is, but don't expect the media to remember that little gem. Iceman found it, and has posted it. Go there and watch it. It's the last one he has posted, called "Revolting Liberal Attack Ad". Revolting is right, I think they even fired the gun, but I can't be sure.
I was also upset today when the National Post journalist Kelly McParland, equated some "truth" ads being released by the Conservatives to the shooting disaster in the US. He is way off base and I usually expect better of him. Very disappointing.
As far as the ads go, I like the one with PM Harper best. Maybe it's a woman thing, but I really connected with that ad. I liked the quiet of the ad, I felt that really was where you could find PM Harper, it wasn't phony, and I wanted to help him with all that work so he could get home to his family. VERY effective. "Here For Canada", excellent slogan! Look for the Beatles mug.
Contrast the two videos. Ignatieff spouting off about MP Baird, or our PM hard at work? I know which one I support. Ignatieff reminds me of my father, old, stuffy and out of touch. (Sorry Dad!).
Egypt's Muslims attend Coptic Christmas mass, serving as "human shields"
Muslims turned up in droves for the Coptic Christmas mass Thursday night, offering their bodies, and lives, as “shields” to Egypt’s threatened Christian community
....
Egypt’s majority Muslim population stuck to its word Thursday night. What had been a promise of solidarity to the weary Coptic community, was honoured, when thousands of Muslims showed up at Coptic Christmas eve mass services in churches around the country and at candle light vigils held outside. (see photo gallery)
From the well-known to the unknown, Muslims had offered their bodies as “human shields” for last night’s mass, making a pledge to collectively fight the threat of Islamic militants and towards an Egypt free from sectarian strife.
“We either live together, or we die together,” was the sloganeering genius of Mohamed El-Sawy, a Muslim arts tycoon whose cultural centre distributed flyers at churches in Cairo Thursday night, and who has been credited with first floating the “human shield” idea.
Good for the silent Muslims, we have finally heard from them, and they are courageous.
----------------------------------------------------------------------- It is a slow day in the small Saskatchewan town of Pumphandle, and streets are deserted. Times are tough, everybody is in debt, and everybody is living on credit.
A tourist visiting the area drives through town, stops at the motel, and lays a $100 bill on the desk saying he wants to inspect the rooms upstairs to pick one for the night.
As soon as he walks upstairs, the motel owner grabs the bill and runs next door to pay his debt to the butcher. The butcher takes the $100 and runs down the street to retire his debt to the pig farmer. The pig farmer takes the $100 and heads off to pay his bill to his supplier, the Co-op. The guy at the Co-op takes the $100 and runs to pay his debt to the local prostitute, who has also been facing hard times and has had to offer her "services" on credit. The hooker rushes to the hotel and pays off her room bill with the hotel owner. The hotel proprietor then places the $100 back on the counter so the traveler will not suspect anything. At that moment the traveler comes down the stairs, states that the rooms are not satisfactory, picks up the $100 bill and leaves.
No one produced anything. No one earned anything. However, the whole town is now out of debt and looks to the future with a lot more optimism.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how a Stimulus package works. ---------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------- "An extraordinarily handsome man decided he had the responsibility to marry the perfect woman so they could produce beautiful children beyond compare.
With that as his mission he began to search for the perfect woman.
Shortly there after he met a Redneck who had three stunning, gorgeous daughters that positively took his breath away. So he explained his mission to the Redneck and asked for permission to marry one of them.
The Redneck simply replied, "They're lookin' to get married, so you came to the right place. Look 'em over and pick the one you want."
The man dated the first daughter. The next day the Redneck asked for the man's opinion
"Well," said the man, "she's just a weeeeee bit, not that you can hardly notice...pigeon-toed."
The Redneck nodded and suggested the man date one of the other girls; so the man went out with the second daughter.
The next day, the Redneck again asked how things went.
"Well,"the man replied, "she's just a weeeee bit, not that you can hardly tell...cross-eyed."
The Redneck nodded and suggested he date the third girl to see if things might be better. So he did.
The next morning the man rushed in exclaiming,
"She's perfect, just perfect. She's the one I want to marry."
So they were wed right away. Months later the baby was born. When the man visited the nursery he was horrified: the baby was the ugliest, most pathetic human you can imagine. He rushed to his father-in-law and asked how such a thing could happen considering the beauty of the parents. "Well," explained the Redneck... "She was just a weeeee bit, not that you could hardly tell... pregnant when you met her." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ For you male car lovers! I would tell women to beat them at their own game, but I failed this test miserably (8/20) so I'm not so sure we could beat the guys. Better to save our ammo for another cause.

He was sitting in his boat the other day when he heard a voice say, 'Pick me up.'
He looked around and couldn't see anyone.
He thought he was dreaming when he heard the voice say
again,'Pick me up.'
He looked in the water and there, floating on the top, was a frog.
The man said, 'Are you talking to me?'
The frog said, 'Yes, I'm talking to you.' Pick me up then, kiss me and I'll turn into the most beautiful woman you have ever seen. I'll make sure that all your friends are envious and jealous because I will be your bride!'
The man looked at the frog for a short time, reached
over, picked it up carefully, and placed it in his front pocket.
The frog said, 'What, are you nuts? Didn't you hear what I said? I said kiss me and I will be your beautiful bride.'
He opened his pocket, looked at the frog and said,
'Nah, at my age I'd rather have a talking frog.'
With age comes wisdom. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is what happens when you allow men into your kitchen to bake cookies! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- A guy walked into the local welfare office to pick up his check.
He marched straight up to the counter and said, "Hi. You know, I just HATE drawing welfare.
I'd really rather have a job."
The social worker behind the counter said, "Your timing is excellent.
We just got a job opening from a very wealthy old man who wants a chauffeur
and bodyguard for his beautiful daughter.
You'll have to drive around in his 2011 Mercedes-Benz CL, and he will supply all of your clothes.
"Because of the long hours, meals will be provided.
You'll also be expected to escort the daughter on her overseas holiday trips.
And, this is rather awkward to say but, you will also have as part of your job assignment
to satisfy her sexual urges as the daughter is in her mid-20's and has a rather strong sex drive."
The guy, just plain wide-eyed, said, "You're bullshittin' me!"

Next election is going to be about reining in the lefties. They are out of control, and taking it to the limit. They need to be restrained by voting them out.
Start with Huckleberry Finn...they are rewriting a classic novel so that no one is offended by a word.
Then move on to a chef who was told that foie gras was persona non gratia because 8 people protested against him.
Yikes! Did you survive? Luckily the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council can't come after me because I don't belong to their organization. They can come after this brave radio station, but I doubt they have the guts. I might have to worry about the HRC though, as they are ever vigilant for any transgression by any conservative type individual or organization that they don't like. They do love our cop killers though:
But the tribunal was persuaded by Collins’ evidence that the act of standing up causes him additional pain. On that basis, it ordered the correctional service to pay Collins $7,000 for pain and suffering.
The tribunal awarded Collins a further $2,500 in special compensation, which can be ordered if the tribunal finds the discriminatory practice was willful or reckless.
Oh.My.God. How ridiculous can the HRC's and the CBSC get? Seriously? Ban a 25 year old song and give a cop killer money? Rewrite classic literature and tell chef's what to cook? Are you kidding me? It's head shakingly (new word! If Palin can do it, so can I) stupid. Four clear instances of wrongheaded lefties banning/restricting our freedoms all in one week! I wonder what next week will bring?
I just about forgot, banning isn't good enough anymore for lefties, now they are rewriting holidays! Try to get your head around this "mistake" by the EU, in forgetting to list Christian holidays like Easter, Lent and Christmas on a calendar provided to school kids.
Lefties, banning, rewriting, complaining about their "rights" and just being total idiots. It's their last grasp at that power ring, their fingers can just about touch it. Hopefully voters will grab the ring away and deny them the power they thirst for, before they ban voting!
I work hard to support my family, as I am sure you all do. So why is it acceptable for the government to take my hard earned dollars and throw them away to dictators? Who gave government the right to spend my money to support failed states? I am sick of it. If I want to donate money to Haiti or Afghanistan, I will, I don't need the government to do it for me.
MONTREAL — Twenty-four hours after being skewered by a coalition of non-government organizations for not doing more to help ordinary Haitians in the wake of last year’s devastating earthquake, International Cooperation Minister Bev Oda has announced more than $90-million worth of projects focusing on health, education and agriculture in the impoverished island nation.
If those non-government organizations want more help, let them raise the money themselves instead of blaming the government. They are blood-suckers, and they will never be happy no matter what level of funding the government gives them. Enough of non-profits expecting the government (taxpayers) to pay for every pet project they want funded.

An absolute waste of money. This corrupt country has decayed in every sense beyond repair and no amount of aid will ever change that. I would much prefer to see this countries aid dollars go where they will have a positive affect.

SOUNDS CALILOUS, BUT I DON'T GIVE A DAM ABOUT HAITI. I DO CARE ABOUT CANADA AND THOSE LESS FORTUNATE IN MY COUNTRY. IF WE HAVE TO HAVE WEALTH RE-DISTRIBUTION THEN I WANT CHARTIY BEGINS AT HOME, NOT IN SOME FOREVER CORRUPT THIRD WORLD COUNTRY.
Maybe it's just too many people with their hands out who refuse to help themselves, maybe it's too many corrupt governments, maybe it's looking at our children and trying to get them through school, but it appears that Canadians are getting tired of being stepped on and bullied by every misfit organization or government who feel it is their right to have their hands in our pockets without doing anything to earn that right. Stop the aid to corrupt foreign governments. Get their hands out of our pockets.
For they know not what they do. Education is clearly necessary for some people in this world. Ignorance is winning, and dictators are making sure that "their" people remain ignorant. Sudan is a perfect example, the voting is being done with symbols, not words, as most of the people can't read. Can you believe that in this day and age, people can't read or write? That is how the dictators remain in power.
It is also how the Imams keep "their" people ignorant. They use the power of speech to subdue or inflame those who can not read or write. It is all about power not about religion. No wonder the power hungry lefties support the backwards preaching of the Imams, they crave power too.
The blasphemy laws are designed to allow Muslims to control and kill minorities. The Pope needed to come out strongly against a law that is designed to allow minorities in Muslim countries to be persecuted and killed. It's not just Christians who are being threatened, it is also other Muslim sects and especially women. As a female, I shudder to even think about living in a Muslim country. It would be so repressive and down right terrifying. Violence can erupt at anytime and bombs are not reserved just for non-believers.
An influential religious party in Pakistan said the pontiff's remarks were offensive and amounted to interfering in Pakistan's internal affairs.
"The pope has given a statement today that has not only offended the 180 million Muslims in Pakistan, it has also hurt the sentiments of the entire Islamic world," said Hafiz Hussain Ahmed, a senior leader of Jamiat-e-Ulema-e-Islam (JUI).
"This is an interference in Pakistan's internal matters ... we respect the pope, being head of Christians and their religion, but he should also refrain from interfering in Muslims' religious affairs."
Here is the main problem, religious parties interfering in the business of the state. Hurt feelings? Give me a break! If you were less primitive and more respectful of your mother's, wives, and daughters, you might not be so limited as human beings. No wonder the educated Muslims are fleeing to Canada and the United States, they understand that they have to get their children out of those repressive Muslim countries if they want their children to live without fear.
May southern Sudan vote to separate, so that their children can live without fear of being a minority in a Muslim country. I pray that they achieve the freedom they deserve, and will be able to peacefully live next to northern Sudan. The vote is only one step towards independence, but it is a huge step. Makes our Quebec Bloc seem very irrelevant in the whole scheme of things doesn't it?
Greens want utopia, prisoners want a new start in life, blend the two together and you get green prisons! It's an idea everyone can love. Here's how it works:
You take a bunch of greenies protesting the oil sands and a bunch of criminals protesting their unfair treatment in prisons and combine the two. You set them down in the NWT with solar panels, wind turbines, and enough materials to build shelter. It's a win win situation. The greenies can build their perfect non-oil utopia while helping reform criminals, who just need more hugs.
Think about it. Environmentalists keep telling us that the end is near if we don't change our habits, but they are they biggest users of oil products out there (plane travel to Mexico anyone, massive houses for Gore and Suzuki). If they were really serious they would set up a prototype village using only renewable energy sources. This has not been done to my knowledge. They seem to be too happy in their university dorms to actually live the life they want to impose on us.
If they are to be believed then they should lead by example. Given that our world has a fever (Gore), they should set up operations in the Arctic, to show us how to grow vegetables using wind and solar power. They should also abide by the hundred mile rule to live. If we incorporate a prison into the mix, they can train the prisoners in the set up and maintenance of green energy, so they will have a skill when they return to society. Of course if the prisoners forget to take care of the bird choppers, a prison break is very likely. In the newly warmed world, the prisoners would stand a very great chance of surviving the melting Arctic.
If I must fund environmentalists with my tax dollar, I demand that they prove that non-renewable energy is possible in Canada, in the winter. Build a model village using only renewable wind and solar, fill it with criminals and make it work. Why haven't the greenies done this yet? They have been yelping for more than 20 years, but have accomplished nothing.
Recently I blogged about the Somali community that refused to give information to the police about a murder. They actually blamed the police for not doing their job. One woman has been in Canada for 20 years and still doesn't feel that her community gets the respect she thinks it deserves. Immigrants need to adapt to Canada and Canadian laws, not the other way around. This one of those things we know is wrong, but don't know how to fix.
We actually have it good here in Canada, the only country we border is the US, and most US citizens who want to come here do so legally. The US has a bigger problem with their Mexican border, and have started building fences to keep illegal immigrants out of their country. That is their right. They should protect the sovereignty of their nation by any means they can.
Luckily we are not part of the EU. They have layers of governments now, and that's just wrong. Any person who makes it into a EU nation can move freely through any EU nation. Sovereignty is becoming diminished for all EU nations.
We have layers of wrong.
First layer, the elected country representatives Second layer the unelected EU Third layer the unelected UN Fourth layer the unelected Human Rights Tribunals Fifth layer the unelected special interest groups Sixth layer the unelected powerful unions Seventh layer, the unelected civil servants/bureaucrats Eighth layer, the unelected environmental groups Ninth layer, the unelected, usually illegal immigrants
I would like to say the tenth layer is the individual, but we don't count, we have no say, we have no power except our vote.
With every layer, more laws are needed and less freedom for the individual occurs. Greece can enact a law the people want, but the EU can over-rule it and if the EU doesn't the UN can strongly suggest it be changed. Countries have no real power to govern themselves anymore. That's a huge wrong for the individuals in that country. This needs to be corrected.
(Reuters) - The U.N. refugee agency voiced concern on Friday that Greece's proposed 12.5 km-long fence at its border with Turkey will shut out asylum-seekers fleeing violence and abuse in their troubled homelands.
The fence could lead illegal migrants, including people in need of international protection, to resort to even riskier routes with the help of unscrupulous human traffickers, it said.
So, the UN can tell countries how to protect their borders? Screw off UN, Soros and Strong! We will not bow down to your one world government dream, it's not in our best interests, only yours, you sick money hounds. Remember, you can't take your wealth with you to your grave, but you do take your lack of morals into the eternal world. I see an eternity of nightmares in your future lives.
So many layers of wrong, they tie our hands more everyday. The Tea Party has the right idea, unbind our hands, let us live free of parasites. The layers of wrong are designed to sap the blood, sweat and tears from the productive to give to the unproductive parasites and dictators of this world, like Soros and Strong, the power behind the elected dictators.
One of the biggest parasites is the environmental movement that Strong made money on. Kyoto was a scam from the get go, but the environmental puppets danced to Strong's tune because it meant millions/billions for their cause. A bigger scam has never been seen before. All those layers of what we know is wrong with our society, we need to address and quickly.
