Media Where Are You?

I have one question for the media. Why are you giving John McCallum a free pass?
Yesterday Liberal MP John McCallum in an interview with CBC accuses our troops of war crimes.
Since then virtually nothing in the Lame Stream Media on this. Once again the blogs have to do their job for them.

Where are you MSM? Nothing to see here folks, let's move on. Had this been a Conservative MP, every media outlet would have been on it like a dog with a bone within hours. It would be getting huge headlines.

Oh no there's no bias. The silence is deafening.

Pathetic. See why more people are turning to blogs and the internet to get their information?

More Prorogation Truth

Here is more truth about the prorogation issue, this time from Dave Rutherford from The Dave Rutherford Show on QR77. He talks about the hypocrisy of the Liberals and the central media.

Prorogation Truth

While the Liberals and the media have been spreading lies and stirring up so called outrage at the PM proroguing Parliament, there have been some working hard to get the truth out there.
Sandy from Just Politics and Hunter from Climbingoutofthedark have worked hard to put this video together that tells the truth. Watch and spread it around. Go to either site to watch. (h/t Sandy and Hunter)
Thanks to Hunter and Sandy for their time, diligence and hard work to bring the truth to light.

The PM is No Dictator

Ya, like Monte Solberg says in his column today, you might not like the PM, that's ok. I don't think PM Harper is looking for how many people like him anyway. Monte goes on to say even if you hate him, he's no dictator and clarifies in my mind the real reason why the prorogation, the senate.

"Senate is important

So we have a disagreement about how important this is and the government is content to let Canadians decide in the next election. In the meantime, the government's priorities include fighting a recession, prosecuting a war and setting sensible environmental policies, and that makes the Senate important.

In order for the soon to be new Conservative majority in the Senate to have control of the committees, the rules say Parliament must prorogue so that the committees can be reconstituted.

Without prorogation, the Liberals would still have a majority of committee seats in the Senate even though they would have fewer seats overall. That would be a terribly anti-democratic situation on at least two levels and should be an outrage to the media if saving democracy was their real concern. That's a big if, however."

Monte then emphasizes that PM Harper is far from being a dictator.

"Remember that this is the PM who has given up power to Parliament on vetting Supreme Court nominees and going to war. He has tried mightily to elect the Senate. Calling him a dictator is so embarrassingly over the top that it says more about his critics than it does him."


And to all those who say that the PM has shut down parliament for 3 months, to 60 days, even all winter by some in the media Hunter has done a phenomenal job in breaking down the actual number of days the house is not sitting. I think her numbers are more to the truth. (h/t) Hunter

The Left Are Not Well

I think I might have discovered what's going with the left these days. I was wanting to know, and this is what I found, they are not well.

The Psychological Causes of
Political Madness, By Lyle H. Rossiter, Jr., M.D.


There are excerpts on that site from the book you will find very insightful on the left hand side of the website. Just click on and read.
