It was really, only a matter of time


Pastor Mike compares atheists to “convicted sex offenders , ex-convicts , terrorist cells , hate groups like the KKK , skinheads , radical Islamists , etc..”  He claims that the purpose of this organization/website called, "The Christian National Registry of Atheists" is to inform the public of known atheists so that they can be proselytize to and their businesses can be boycotted.

Traditional news media, has begun to crumble

Actually, I think it has started to crumble some time ago, but it wasn't as noticeable until now. The news of CTV Quebec City Bureau Chief Kai Nagata quitting his job, and his making public his reasons for doing so, has really only helped shine a spotlight on the problem.

Robin Rowland wrote a good blog post about this here.

It's worth noting, the handfulof conservative bloggers who regularly denounce news media such as CTV, are predictably quiet about this.

Toronto Mayor Ford snubbing massive community


Over 1 million people expected at Sunday's Pride parade

I still find it astounding that Ford would so blatantly give the 'fuck you' to such a huge community and probably one of the largest events in the city of Toronto. If you can't put aside your differences and support such a large Toronto community, then I really think Ford should step aside and let someone competent to represent the citizens of this city.

Political bloggers, are becoming just brainless

I've become less and less interested in blogs these days, and not just because I have less time for it. I certainly haven't spent much time here developing things as I thought I would, sometimes I think there are better things to blog about. I'm always just appalled at the sheer hypocrisy, ignorance, and outright lying I see on many political blogs, mostly conservative ones it seems. Commenting on them was once a sort of way to express disgust at the stupidity of some of them, but now I think there's really, little to be gained from it, and there'll always be lots and lots of these twits.

One such blog, Dr. Roy, supports, "Lord Black". He supports him! A conservative, law and order conservative that is, supports, a convicted criminal, sad, that he has been sent back to serve the rest of his prison term. Now, just where do you go with this? Really. No amount of reasoning would ever get through to people like this, they just are.

Of course, the other, er, neo conservative blog, is still apparently battling "nonnys" (anonymous commenters). He has complained of being threatened, people posing as him (imagine calling oneself "neo conservative"!), as well as all sorts of incredible wrongs. On more than one occasion, he has lied about the content of my comments, recently telling everyone I called him a dick. Of course I did no such thing, so a good guess is, he's likely making all the rest of his stories up as well. This, is a credible blog on the blogging tories? Really?

(Update on this, it seems someone according to other bloggers may actually be going around posing as other bloggers such as neo conservative. I may dislike his politic, and have had many an argument with him, this isn't cool.)

So, this is the kind of political bloggers out there who support our conservative government. You would think professional journalists would be better. Turn on the TV, and watch Ezra Levant. Just try it for, even 10 minutes. It isn't a whole lot different than what you see in the conservative blogosphere!

ahhh, the backpedalling begins

Tories back off campaign pledge to show a surplus by 2014-15

Well isn't this a huge surprise. This party has shown they know how to spend, not balance budgets. Too bad for all the Canadian families who bought this promise to wait 4 or 5 years for their tax breaks while they hand billions to rich corporations.
