BACK OFF GOVERNMENT!: June 2011
http://backoffgov.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Mr Duccepe, the man who faced the worst assault and disaster of all political leaders on May 2 of this year, going from dozens of MPs to only 2 with his own seat lost, is insistent that Secession from Canada is a must for Quebequers to avoid " assimilation. A timeline of 15 years for this to occur. I have to take issue with this assertion. Mainly because Mr Duceppe is cleverly avoiding discussing the fact that Quebec is ALREADY on the path of self implosion. Having some of the lowest birth rates. It's be...

The Anti-Tobacco Liberals are apparently not so much so when the end justifies the means:. 8220;I have done crazy things,” Holland says in the audio recording. “Like.and if anyone repeats this I’ll deny it (until) the cows come home. I have gone to a shelter in the riding of St. Paul’s with a carton of smokes and said, ‘I’ll give you them after you vote.”. I have done that.but they were already smokers.”. After making her fake confession. Friday, September 30, 2011. And their subsequent censure by CTV.

1 The PCs will be defeated in Alberta. The PCs have had their 3 decade run. They're bereft of any new ideas. They've drifted into moderate political limbo so much that their wishy-washiness is eerily resembling the Federal Liberal Party. In Alberta, political change seldom happens. But when it does it comes quick. My bet is on the Wildrose Alliance winning government come May 31st. 2 Jean Charest wins another term. His inability to recognize when the gig is up is starting to seem Chretienesque. I don't b...

Freedom of Conscience Lost. This is utterly the worst decisions I have seen from Obama in a good long while. Strategically however it's brilliant:. Most healthcare plans will be required to cover birth control . Churches, synagogues and other houses of worship are exempt from the requirement, but religious-affiliated hospitals and universities only get a one-year delay and must comply by Aug. 1, 2013. If I decide to do, or decide not to do, particular things that you may or may not agree with based on my...

Notes on the Fiscal Cliff. It should be simple. Take a minority of Republicans and a majority of Democrats in the house, and make a deal. It would rip apart the Republicans and expose divisions like never before - but I'm sure that doesn't bother the Democrats, and Boehner doesn't have much of a choice. Boehner tried his "Plan B." It should have gathered a minority of Republicans and majority of Democrats. But he couldn't get the votes. What that exposes is to things:. A deal requires two parties that ca...

Paul Krugman - Enemy of Reason. Krugman's latest piece in NYT is a whopper. If you look at the track record, the Obama administration has been wrong about some things, mainly because it was too optimistic about the prospects for a quick recovery. But Republicans have been wrong about everything. Republicans have been wrong about everything. That's quite the statement to be made by the man who attacked. Those very same rosy "optimistic" projections? I'm confused: was Krugam wrong then or now? So back to t...

The Best Decision Ever. It's only a shame that NI seems to be learning only now. It came too late for 200 employees of NOTW and it will cost the company dearly in lawsuits - not to mention the loss in reputation. That being said, the shark like feeding frenzy that's being unleashed is just silly. What happened here is that a company, a small chunk of a larger corporation, failed in a spectacular fashion - and maybe even criminally so. Best of luck to NI in learning lessons from the top-down. To replace t...

The Political Career of Frank Klees, RIP. McGuinty must be giddy:. 8220;There’s no doubt it makes it more challenging for both opposition parties,” a grim-faced Hudak acknowledged, portraying his former leadership rival Klees as a turncoat who ignored an edict that no Tory would vie to succeed retiring Speaker Steve Peters. I don't quite know what Frank is thinking. This makes no strategic sense Klees. Not for his career or for his agenda. Tuesday, October 25, 2011. Next you'll say we gotta protect peopl...
