Did you hear the one about...

The joke goes:
a parishioner asks the priest why he accepts the offering of a known crime figure who would have obtained the money illegally. The priest replies: " the devil has his way with money maybe it is time the Lord put it to good use".

On that same line of thinking I will be donating my SGI refund cheque to the Sask Party to help fight the next election.

(Reference to the NDP as the "devil" is purely coincidental and is in no way the opinion of this blogger.)

The facts are in

This is proof positive that Muslims the Taliban are untrustworthy scum who cannot be trusted and must be eliminated by any means.

British forces are based in Helmand province but left Musa Qala in October after a peace agreement was signed between elders and the Helmand governor. According to the deal, security was turned over to local leaders, while NATO forces were prevented from entering the town.

Hmmm... sounds like a good deal to me.

You wanna go to the moon

Canadian could live on moon by 2024.

Considering half of Canadians are moonbats that is not a bad plan. If Jack Layton whines from the moon does andybody know?

America the bad

Saddam is no more. America is the "bad guy".

Saddam Hussein, the shotgun-waving dictator who ruled Iraq with a remorseless brutality for a quarter-century and was driven from power by a U.S.-led war that left his country in shambles, was taken to the gallows clutching a Qur'an and hanged Saturday.

Fact number one if you were a Shiite or not a machine gun toting ally of Saddam your Iraq was already in shambles. Issue number one, Saddam always claimed his regime was not about Islam, he was a secular leader, it was a huge mistake to allow him a Qu'ran to make him an Islamic martyr he is not.

Union negotiations: Saskatchewan style

Don Zerr [head of labour relations with the Public Service Commission]:Hi Barry [Nowoselsky union negotiator] how are you today?

Barry: Fine Don. How are you?

Don: I brought the cigars, they're Cubans you know.

Barry: I brought the Sherry, all the way from France.

Don: So where were we? Oh yes. We were determining how many days to allow the strike before we "give in" [laughter] to your demands.

Barry: yes I believe the number was 24 days to balance the books.

Don: Right 24 days.

Barry: I'm sure they can handle the cold for that long.

Don: Did you catch Lorne [Calvert's] year end message? He was hinting at an election.

Barry: Yes I did and we will urge our members to vote for him again.

Don: That about wraps things up for today. Are you and your wife coming over for dinner tonight?

Barry: Yes. 6:00 and I'll bring the wine.

Don: I'll have my secretary notify you when our next "negotiation" session is [laughter]. I sure wish you would strike in the summer so we could do this on the golf course.

Barry: Don't worry. We will.

Those crazy Boarder's

I took the opportunity to take in Minister Strahl and Minister Ambrose's biofuel press conference today. Because I arrived late I was at the back of the room with the 'Army jacket, plaid pants, woolen mittens, velcro shoes contingent (aka socialist CWB supporters). Everyone has the right to an opinion (even if the opinion is so very wrong) and even carry placards (Our Board Our Business). Standing there I wish I had my own placard: My Wheat My business. But to be rude and yell and scream out when the ministers were speaking is absolutely deplorable. One individual even had a grains shovel with Shovel Strahl's S__T (fill in the blank. Two letters and it rhymes with 'it') written scribbled on it. How do these people think they will get, or deserve, any respect when they are so blatantly disrespectful. Strahl and Ambrose did a very good job of ignoring their nonsense and replied to their questions with far more dignity than they deserved.

Votes, votes, and more votes

A vote was held to elect new farmer directors to the CWB. The left rejoiced as so-called pro-CWB won in most districts. 'An obvious sign farmers want the status quo' says the federal NDP, Liberals, and Bloc (who represent a miniscule minority of Canadians in rural western Canada). We are to have a farmer plebiscite by barley (and possibly wheat) growers to determine if changes should be made. If history repeats itself, again the pro-CWB will win the vote. (Note to readers: small hobby farmers out-number large full-time farming operators.)

There is only one vote that should be is of any relevance. That was the vote to elect the current government. We elect a government to govern. I think it is absolutely absurb that a government must ask permision to make a decision which they believe is in the best interest of their constituents. I challenge anyone to show me any other industry that is legislated to abide by the wishes of the majority of all industry participants.

Every farmer should read the CWB Act and see how your rights are being trampled uopn.

The big fence theory

As much as I support what Canada, USA, Great Britian, and Australia have been doing in the Middle East I am not sure if the war on terror Islam is winnable. Even if democracy is brought to Iraq and Afghanistan there is still Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia, etc... As long as there is one muslim cleric teaching his followers they way of jihad there will be instability in the region. For years the western world has underestimated these fanatics. We thought we could win favour and influence from the likes of Osama bin laden and Sadam Hussein but all we did strengthen their hatred of the western world. Although a very simple task, they have convinced the "left" that they are the victims not the aggresors and they are only trying to live in peace in their own homeland. In Europe and Canada our schools teach us that war is bad and we have to accept and even abide by other people's cultures so we can live in peace and harmony. In the Middle East boys are taught the west is evil and is bent on destroying their society. The dictators live in decadent palaces while their subjects barely eek out a living. Of course the blame is placed on Americans. It would take exponentially more troops and a generation of occupation to reverse this rampant brainwashing.

This is where the big fence comes into play. Instead of spending billions on military engagement build and encampent a city (We will likely be charged with the rebuilding if and when the war is won). Develop an agriculture industry where the farmers produce goods in the open market, not poppies for their leaders warlords. You just have to see how grateful the people are when our troops give small gifts or even candy to the children to know how grateful they would be gave them honor and dignity.

The moments of our lives

This moment brought to you by the good folks low life slime at the Liberal Party of Canada.

"Stephen, can I call you Steve, like George W.?"

No, but you will call me Prime Minster! Can I call you A__-hole?

CBC's winter line up

From the possibility of having Paul Martin light. "I support the war on terror", "I mean I do not support our troops in Afghanistan", and "shouldn't someone be on trial for war crimes for what happened in Qana?". To NDP'ers with suits. To The Libranos:The next Generation.

Dion was recruited by former prime minister Jean Chrétien in 1996 and given the job of improving federalist fortunes in Quebec in the wake of the 1995 referendum.

Now wasn't trying to "improve federalist fortunes in Quebec" what got this government in trouble in the first place?
Returning this season are:

But most key players on the Rae campaign poured over to Dion, including Ralph Goodale, Lloyd Axworthy, Maurizio Bevilacqua, Hedy Fry, Eddie Goldenberg and Jim Munson.

With a special season premier appearance by Iggy. (By season's end Iggy may be back running the "Harvard" chapter of the Libranos.)

Watch as the Libranos bring in "Da Little guy" from Chawinigan try take out "Scary Steve". Steve is sure to have "people with guns in our streets" to protect his turf.
