Happy Electsmas, Everyone...

I was trying to comment on Craig West's blog, but the freakin blog security thing kept telling me that I was entering shit wrong. So screw it. Here are my thougts, such as they are, on the state of Canadian politics, such as they are...
To read what set me off, check out Craig's blog. These are the comments that got me going.

Right off the top, we have to recognize that, while not a perfect example of democracy, our nation has the opportunity to spank the Liberals for lies, corruption and some truly despicable back-room boy-on-money love...
The Libs lied and were caught. The Libs stole and were caught. The Libs used an opportunity to keep this country in one piece and used it to launder money and pay for lots and lots of drinks and buy golf courses and make some friends richer. And, by the way, it wasn't the last time they had a majority... The last time they had a majority was when the shit hit the fan and they were found out.
It happened. They were caught.
So who do we blame for the Libs staying in power? What sneaky bastard let them back in to rule this country? Oh, yeah. It was ALL of us. We had the opportunity to show the Libs how we felt, and we told them, hey, some love lost, but not much...

So here we are again.

And what a strange, strange thing we wake up to... Harper and Martin are promising to spend money like druken sailors at a strip club on two-for-one night... Layton says, hey, I've got a plan, but, sorry, I can't tell you about it coz we've only had a year and a half to put it together and its not ready yet. And the Greens aren't sounding so green anymore.

This one seriously important election, folks.
Unless the Conservatives win a majority, Harper will become truly familiar with what its like to be in the midst of a feeding frenzy with a group of sharks on crystal meth. Unless the Libs win a majority, Martin will get curbed like a frat boy on a Saturday night outside the River Rock and will become a footnote in Canadian history, having his name mentioned in the same breath as Turner and Campbell...
The purges are on the way, people, it ain't gonna be pretty.

It isn't an easy decision, this election.
On the one hand we have the Libs who have yet to answer for their crimes. They need to pay the band, shut out the lights, and clean up. They also need to bring back Brian Tobin, but that's a whole other wish list.
The Conservatives need to get rid of the neo-cons. The vast majority of Canadians are very, very uncomfortable with this brand of social conservativism. We dig fiscal conservatism, but this whole angry white guy shit is just dumb.
And the NDP... well, they've kinda become the sad kid in the corner at a party where they can only join the cool kids when the cool kids need them to beat up the other cool kids. I loved their whole self-righteous act in the '70's and the '80's. Now, they are just kind of sad...
And, please, please stay away from the Greens. For everyone's sake, make these fucks shut up. Their leader is a former PC member and a motiviational speaker for multi-national corporations. Fuck.

Anyway, I've rambled more than enough, I think.

Just remember, when you vote, think nationally, act locally...

Strange Rumblings From The Christmas Mad

While checking out one of my favorite daily reads, The Museum Of Hoaxes(go check it out, I'll be waiting) I came across this.
Please, check it out.

Is it real, could he have really pulled it off? Its pretty cool either way.

Now, I'm going to go play with some Christmas lights. You should, too.

Strange Rumblings From The Great White North

Huh?

Is this real?

Check out the story...

What have you been up to, Roy?

Only one solution I can see...nuke it from orbit...

And so I worked hard, very hard, and wrote this whole thing about the kidnapping of the local fellow in Iraq and I was quite proud of it and I thought it was very nice and sensitive and then...and then Internet Explorer lost its fragile fucking mind and crashed and there went my very nice and sensitive and made-me-proud piece of writing that I have been working on for hours and hours and thinking about for days and days.


Fuck you Internet Explorer. First chance I get, I'm upgrading to OS X and waving good-bye to your sorry ass.

Fuck you Microsoft. Christ, you know it ain't easy...

Feel free to comment. I'm going to try again later, when I am not thinking evil thoughts about Bill Gates.
