Hey everyone, one again have to apologize for my prolonged absense. I have been partially laid up with a back ailment suffered at hockey. I think its time to hang up the skates for the summer.
Just a few small points today. First, I just want people to be aware of the whole Khadr situation and the Liberals involvement as such. I know they have denied the passport, but they are still thick as thieves with these admitted terrorists. It really says something about the anti-American sentiment within our government that they would rather get in bed with al-Queda members than throw a kind word of encouragement down south. Paul Martin is no different than Chretien (other than the accent) and no matter how much he tries to distance himself, they are cut from the same cloth.
Secondly, I was watching the CBC last night. I know it sucks but there was hockey on, I left for a while after the game and when I returned Counter-Spin was on and the war in Iraq was being discussed. They gave all kinds of air time to inarticulate hippies who bemoaned the "thousands of civilians" dying every day in Iraq and all the usual clap trap. This is fine as every has an opinion, but the young and claen cut man who was in favor of the war was hussled off air PDQ. Why doesn't CBC just bite the bullet and start buying Radio Saddam letterhead?
Kudos to the psychiatrist (psychologist) who had the marbles to stand up to the Khadr family and call Mrs. Khadr a child abuser. Real good stuff. I apologize for not remember the lady's name.
And just a quick mention of the U of Winnipeg's Campus Radio program this morning. It was a Women's Right program of some sort and what caught my attention was the woman who was being interviewed. She mentioned that she was really in favor of Bolshevism and Socialism etc. This woman then went on to introduce a song she had written that championed her individualism.
Priceless.
I'm out.
