Michael Coren is "The Emperor"?

Strike him down and your journey towards the Dark Side will be complete!

(h/t , commenter Torontonian at "Unrepentant Old Hippie").

Yes, Mike... It's just like George Bush. People hate the Catholic Church not because of some of the anti-human actions it has taken, but because they suffer from some sort of derangement syndrome. And the criticism just proves that you're right.

For such a divine institution, you'd think its public champions would be able to respond better to critics than mere parroting of a fictional Sith Lord's dismissive zealotry.

"Harper will only go to climate conference if other leaders do"

Now that's leadership we can believe in!

Who does Stevie think he's fooling? He's anchored to a climate-change-denial base that no sweatervest will hide.


"Province's economy has Gantefoer confused"

"The "wild gyrations" of the Saskatchewan economy have evidently left Finance Minister Rod Gantefoer a little dizzy -- and the Saskatchewan Party government having a bit of a hard time getting its message straight.

In an interview Monday, Gantefoer responded in this way when asked if Saskatchewan was in a recession:

"No. Well, the country's in a recession, North America is probably in a recession . . . while our positive growth is pretty miniscule it's still positive. So technically we're not."

On Tuesday, the minister told reporters:

"By the end of the year we will be in a recession."

And in question period on Thursday he said this:

"Saskatchewan is not going into a recession, we're coming out of one."


Looks like the Sask. Party is finding more in common with Brad Wall's BFF Grant Devine each and every day!


Thank you, Saskatchewan Healthcare Professionals.

Since bad anecdotes seem to be all the rage with a certain crowd, allow me to humbly supply an experience of my own.

After spending the week in the hands of Canadian healthcare, I'd like to express my gratitude to the many selfless, caring, and wonderful people that work tirelessly and thanklessly every day to bring comfort to their fellow sick and injured citizens.

My experience couldn't have been further from the tale that Shona Holmes has been peddling, and not once did I see or hear from anyone with remotely similar stories.

I'm not holding my breath for FOX News to call, nor for my humble thank-you to get international attention. But maybe if more people share their experiences, it might just shed some light on who the outliers are, their motives, and the agenda behind the attention being given to them.

Quite ill.

Will try to resume blogging as soon as situation allows. Until then, limited to no posting by me.

Does Milton also win when he loses?

In light of the recent rash of conservative up-is-down/losing-is-winning propaganda, I wonder how long it will take before right-wing "intellectuals" start tweeting/facebooking/declaring John Maynard the loser for being unable to quickly clean up Friedman's mess ?


Ft. Hood was Bush's fault.

If only he'd been more anti-Muslim.

Disagree and you're a witch-burner.

Conservative "intellectualism" is back,...

...and beating the "death panel" horse, you betcha!

*Because reality has a "liberal bias"


From Conservapedia's main page:









What's better... The effort to make this a "liberal" issue or the "read the newspaper" strawman? We report, you decide.


Conservatives Gone Wild!



Got derangement?
