Being Right is Not Wrong

The head of Iran’s soccer federation issued a public apology and a member of his staff resigned after the federation mistakenly sent a New Year’s greeting to its counterpart in Israel, Iranian officials announced Sunday.

There are dozens of editors working overtime at the CBC, trying to figure out how to blame this on George W Bush.

Police asked the estimated 15,000 concertgoers, who had pitched tents and parked RVs, to remain on site Saturday night to avoid a panic and traffic snarls. Most retreated to their campsites to talk about what happened or to party. [emphasis mine]

Did they really need to add the party piece?

Are rich black people above the law? Maybe. DesireG gets all cranky for Obama and Gates “pimpin’ the moment.”

All I can say is that if this professor is what Harvard is using these days, I’m glad I went elsewhere.

UPDATE: The Major looks at the White House Beer Meeting.

I’m not sure if this policy is very effective at promoting tourism in Germany.

The German government in Berlin later ordered the Somali pirates released because they were not caught while harassing German interests, according to BBC.

The only thing I can say is that I hope they released them into the waters about 15 miles off shore with cement boots on.

You ran an amazing campaign with the full support of the media and the desire to dispose of an unpopular president.

Now lets see what you can do with the Kos kids wanting you to give them what you promised.

The introduction to this article was written by the Department of Redundancy Department.

Smacking children with a cane, slipper or belt will become a criminal offence, with parents facing possible jail sentences under proposals being considered by the Government.

Smacking children with a cane, slipper or belt will become a criminal offence, with parents facing possible jail sentences under proposals being considered by the Government.

A consultation document to be published by the Department of Health today will propose that the law be amended to make it illegal for parents to hit their children with any implement or punish them in a way likely to injure the head, eyes or ears.

So not only are parents not allowed to smack their children with a slipper, but forcing them to listen to Celine Dion is also illegal. I guess I’m all for that.

No word on whether extreme Islamists are able to behead their children if they convert to Christianity. Technically, it only hurts the neck right?

CTV must have lost the governing party’s numbers.

British and French ministries aren’t commenting on a British newspaper’s report that France will send an additional 1,000 troops to Afghanistan.

Liberal defence critic Denis Coderre told CTV’s Newsnet that he believes the French troops will go to eastern Afghanistan to help the Americans.

I went through the whole Liberal Press Release and they didn’t mention even trying to contact MacKay. I guess in their view, putting “Critic:” in front of headlines means they don’t need to provide any balance.

“We can navel gaze about what this bill will cost today,” Mr. McTeague said in an interview. “The lost revenue would be gained down the road when kids get higher paying jobs.”

I agree. Which is why I also propose dropping the GST to five percent. Oh wait, already done. What did Dion say about that again?

“We are the party of compassion, the party of Kelowna for aboriginals, the party that wants to put the fight against poverty at the core of agenda. We want to invest in Canadians and families, seniors, in regions, and there is no good balance in this declaration of the minister of finance about investing in Canadians and tax cuts.”

Wait a second, won’t more money being saved by families to invest in RESPs for their children… Never mind.

Chop the gun registry or the HRC funding and keep this tax break.

Those of us who know that the Charter of Rights and Freedoms has been used to take the country down the wrong, destructive, direction also have been concerned as to how the Human Rights Tribunals/Commissions have been punishing people when no laws were broken.

Ezra Levant is now taking on the Alberta “Human Rights” Commission and I want to come out and say I support what he is doing.

If you want to live in a country where you are free to think without a lawsuit, you need to pay attention to what is going on in Canada’s Kangaroo Courts.

Our rights are being defended.

I’m not quite sure what the judge was thinking on this one.

First, one judge rules this guy could pose a threat to children under the age of 14.

He was held by authorities under a protective order after a provincial court judge ruled he could pose a threat to children under the age of 14.

Then, judge #2 grants him bail at only $5000?

A provincial court in Abbotsford, B.C., has granted bail of $5,000 to Orville Frank Mader, who’s accused of sex crimes in Thailand, but he will remain in jail until he comes up with the money.

Mader, 54, also has to stay away from children unless he’s under supervision of an adult appointed by the court — a condition of his bail.

I’m sure there are enough pedophiles willing to cough up some money to help him out.

What a joke.
