Well, What Do You Know

The Supreme Court has actually told the Conservatives to take a hike. They have saved Insite and as a result, the lives of countless drug addicts. Hooray for the triumph of reason over ideology. It is unfortunate that it is such a rare occurrence. I expect the next Conservative fund raising letter will denounce the communists on the bench and stress the need for God-fearing Conservatives to flood the benches. It is all bullshit of course, since this is the most conservative Supreme Court in years, but you know the Conservatives, every political loss is a profit opportunity.

Watch This

And ask yourself, do I want unfettered capitalism, or do I want to line these motherfuckers against the nearest wall? Hat tip to Galloping Beaver.

Strikes are now considered illegitimate and will be crushed by our government.

The real quote is just as ominous: "Any work stoppage would negatively impact Canada's economy and threaten our fragile economic recovery,"

Tim Hudak's Kamikaze Run

Hand's up those who think it is politically smart to go into a city with 9.1% unemployment and tell the voters he is going to cut 200 more jobs? Also, who thinks it is good policy to cut government spending in a recession? Tim Hudak that's who. Good luck Tim. The plane is gassed up and ready to go.

When Corporate Lackey's Attack

It is interesting that the Conservatives are attacking Brian Topp for being friendly to unions. It just underscores the Conservatives utter lack of concern for working people or the conditions under which they work. Unions have played the most crucial role in the elevation of the working class to something resembling middle class standing, and for the elevation of workplace safety. But, this matters not one whit to the Harperites. It is quite evident that the Harperites would rather have workers represented by no one, so they could enjoy all the benefits of those lucky enough to be working in factories in China.

Update: As Pogge points out, there are other, more legitimate, things to criticize Topp for. It goes to show that union bashing takes precedence over democratic values for the Harperites.

Update: With news like this, perhaps the Harperites should explain why we don't need unions.

One Or Two People

May wonder why I haven't been posting lately. Read this and you will get a clue. Our politics have become completely retarded. It makes no difference whether it's federal or provincial. Who the fuck in their right mind would follow it? I may post again if the spirit moves me. Or, I might just take up full contact yoga.

Note To Politicos

Political trash talk might make your briefs feel tight, but it turns the rest of us off politics. Stop having swinging dick competitions and talk issues. Thanks so much.
