Prorogue Not Very Important Now, Is It?

Funny how real human suffering can make those yipping about Parliament being prorogued look really small.

I have already stated that if MP Harper extends Micheal's term, I wouldn't be too upset. She is a very real person that many of us can and do connect with. Her heartfelt worry about the people of Haiti, was probably just as hard for us to watch as it was for her. She is a real trooper.

I am very impressed with our governments response to this disaster. DART was in the air and ready to help within hours. Ships were called back to port to load up with medicine and needed personnel. Money was made available for immediate aid. We have C-17's to cart helicopters and medical supplies to Haiti now, instead of having to hitch a ride with Russians or the US. This was one of the quickest responses I can remember from DART. Thanks to a very understanding Prime Minister and a hard working Cabinet, we are getting the job done for people in real need. By the way who was that idiotic reporter who asked Minister Cannon if this meant that Parliament needed to be recalled? I'm glad he didn't answer her. Who ever she was, she was out of line by making the disaster in Haiti a political issue.

If Parliament isn't working, how come the government was so quick to respond? Maybe people need to better understand the difference between Parliament and government.
This is a time that we need to work together. Haiti needs to be helped, then it can be cleaned up and rebuilt and that can happen with all nations working together.

By the way, CTV your "live" torch relay coverage was ridiculous. I got more black screens than actual video feeds of the runners. Sound was a maybe or maybe not proposition.





I did get this one:



Go Canada GO!! I want those Liberal mitts, they are such a smart statement. HA!

Prorogue This!

It started out with a suggestion from one of Sandy's posters that we needed a truth ad about prorogation, because the MSM was talking about it being from 4 months to 2 months in length. Then the call went out to citizen journalists to round up some links to video, newspaper articles, and even anyone who knew how to photo shop pictures.

I want to thank everyone who got in the spirit and sent all kinds of links/pictures and suggestions. I especially want to thank Sandy for helping to edit the video, she is very level headed where I tend to go off on partisan tangents. I also want to thank Don, who spent his weekend photo shopping some great pictures...some of which will be used for another project on Olympic MP's! HA!

I had tried to download HI HO HI HO, to add music to the video, but my audio program was acting up. I tried lots of "free" music sites and just couldn't find anything relevant to the video, then it struck me, PM Harper has a song! The more I thought about it, the more I liked it. The PM is singing about "needing someone to love", and the opposition are yapping about Parliament being shut down for 17 days due to proroguing, while they are on vacation. Too subtle?

So, here it is, remember, every minute you watch, takes hours to put together, and it is thanks to all of my and Sandy's posters that I had the material to work with.



I have so much material that a longer version might be possible, but for now, I hope the message is clear.....17 days is NOT 4 months or even 2 months!

Prorogue, Let's Count!

We have heard it's 4 months, or 2 months but who really has counted the days? I have, and I have the calendar's to prove it. This is part of the video that is coming.



Count the days:

Christmas break 32 working days
Olympic break 11 working days
Prorogue 17 working days

Yes, only 17 days not 4 months. So I ask you, what are the opposition so upset about?

Could it be that they want to cover up the fact that Liberal leadership candidates from way back in the Dion race, still have not paid off their loans?

Could it be that they realize that they are about to lose their dominant position in the Senate and might have to pay attention to how they vote from now on?

Funny how the opposition have spun the coalition as a legitimate option for Canadians, but think proroguing Parliament is somehow undemocratic. It has been done 105 times before but because this time it's the Conservatives doing it, it's undemocratic.

The MSM is no better, CTV has 30 seconds of PM Harper talking and 13 MINUTES of Iggy, now that's fair and balanced. They also supplemented that 13 minutes with various experts making the Liberal time even more prevalent. Stop going to CTV, CBC, GlobalTV and all papers you disagree with, stop giving them "hits". Advertisers base their ad placement on "hits" so go over to the National Post multiple times in a day, and do not feed the other media outlets. Boycott bad and biased journalism.
