The sickening love-fest coming from the left is get more nausiating by the minute. I just heard Bob Rae say he had a pleasant meeting with the NDP and that he has a “good feeling”. Gee, great. That makes it all worth while.

Chant along, everyone:

The Hyenas are out. Losers by trait, they have to scavenge for the spoils. They will never kill for themselves, they have to get to where they want via the back door.

We all know why Dion and Layton want this coalition: Dion needs to save face and he doesn’t want to be the only Liberal leader who didn’t become Prime Minister. Layton is just power hungry, and damn this county, his master intellect requires that he’s going to be in cabinet. And strangely, we haven’t heard peep from our Little Miss Sunshine, Elizabeth May. I am wondering if she is arranging her affairs to get ready for her senate appointment…

The country is facing a recession, people of all stripes are cutting back on their expenses, some are losing money on their RRSPs, gauging (more like fleecing) at the pumps, people are losing jobs left and right, yet the Liberals, NDP and Bloc are against capping their salaries, cutting their expense accounts and want to hold on to their entitlements.  “We must work together to make this parliament work for the Canadian people” has changed to “I don’t want to give up my $1.95 per vote and a pay hike”. Thanks Jackie, Stephane and Gilles. Glad you’re working for us. Glad you’re chippin’ in.

Yesterday Layton and Dion were calling for more civility in the House. People don’t want the name calling and shouting matches in question period. “We must all work together for the economy’s sake” was the phrase of the day. Dion pledged not to abstain on votes anymore, indicating a will to work together.

Yes, I received another email from my good friend Jack Layton this afternoon. After he chalked up his “historic gains this election”, he sat down with Mr. Harper and told him how to fix this economy thing, and, he says, he hopes Harper can put aside his petty partisan ways and listen to him. Jackie hopes Mr. Harper mentions the following suggestions in his throne speech:

• Cancelling the scheduled 2009 unconditional corporate tax giveaways;
• Investing in the new energy economy to create jobs and fight climate change;
• Investing in a national training strategy;
• Cracking down on the banks receiving government support but still charging outrageous credit card and ATM fees;
• Protecting pensions and RRSPs so that Canadians can sleep at night knowing their retirement is read more

Obama: Hi, this is Obama.

Dion: Hosama?

Obama: No, Obama. Osama’s the other guy.

Dion: (to himself) I don’t understand what he’s saying…

I haven’t said much about the American election, and in fact, this is courtesy of my wife, who said yesterday evening watching John McCain’s concession speech: I wish Canada had such a MAN, such a graceful loser, and not such a grovelling, whining little boy for an opposition leader.

Congratulations, Mr. Obama. I hope you can bring the American people together and help bring an end to the racial divide that has plagued your country for centuries.

Jack, I need you to tell me this is a global catastrophe, and that something needs to be done! Snow on October 28th? Where are you?

We woke up to some 4 cm of snow today (I know, the STORM TEAM from A-News announced 15 cm yesterday, but hey, we’ve got that STORM TEAM all fitted out with the parkas and the ski-goggles, so we’ve got to use ‘em!), and, of course, Ottawa’s streets are filled with idiots who do not know how to drive. On my modest 20 minute drive to work I came across three cars in the ditch and one spinning out of control coming up to a stop sign you can see from four miles away. On read more

So, what other things you have been saying during the campaign that have now proven to be untrue? Or, in other words, what other things has Mr Harper said during the campaign, that you said were lies, turn out to be true?

Yes, Dion held his L O N G awaited press conference yesterday, after HIDING OUT for nearly a week. Saying he’ll step down, but stay on for now (?). He blames everything on himself, but mostly on a number of other things (is that possible? It’s like a shirt is 100% cotton, AND some wool h/t Seinfeld), such as:
