More shenanigans!

God bless the troops and their families

Dangerous mix of religion and politics?

Who knew that Brian Trottier was Aboriginal?... and who knew that such racist pigs still existed?

All right, let's go to toronto now and ndp leader jack layton is at a subway
station in the city:

be warned: Voting for paul martin's liberals because of issues like the war in
Iraq or Kyoto or equal marriage is risky because you never know which paul
martin you are going to get. After all, when Paul martin does not know what he
believes, how can you? The fact is that mr. Martin is wrapping himself in the
courage of his predecessor when he dodged and waffled on every question. If you
think jean chretien made the right call on Iraq vote ndp because we supported
him. Not Paul martin who undermined him as prime minister and liberal leader.


Voting liberal in toronto does not stop a conservative, it elects a liberal and rewards a party that's taken toronto's votes and then taken it for granted. Taken Toronto's tax dollars and spent them on its friends... Voting for paul martin's liberals because of issues like the war in Iraq or Kyoto or equal marriage is risky because you never know which paul martin you are going to get. After all, when Paul martin does not know what he believes, how can you? The fact is that mr.

Not Paul martin who undermined him as prime minister and liberal leader.

If Layton states, for the record, that he could work with a Harper Government a
few more times, my prediction for last election, may turn out to be eerily
prescient of this election:

Oh, the year was 1778, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
A letter of marque come from the king,
To the scummiest vessel I'd ever seen,
CHORUS:
God damn them all!
I was told we'd cruise the seas for American gold
We'd fire no guns-shed no tears
Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett's Privateers.
Oh, Elcid Barrett cried the town, HOW I WISH I WAS . . .
For twenty brave men all fishermen who
would make for him the Antelope's crew
(chorus)
The Antelope sloop was a sickening sight,
She'd a list to the port and and her sails in rags
And the cook in scuppers with the staggers and the jags
(chorus)
On the King's birthday we put to sea,
We were 91 days to Montego Bay
Pumping like madmen all the way
(chorus)
On the 96th day we sailed again,
When a bloody great Yankee hove in sight
With our cracked four pounders we made to fight
(chorus)
The Yankee lay low down with gold,
She was broad and fat and loose in the stays
But to catch her took the Antelope two whole days
(chorus)
Then at length we stood two cables away,
Our cracked four pounders made an awful din
But with one fat ball the Yank stove us in
(chorus)
The Antelope shook and pitched on her side,
Barrett was smashed like a bowl of eggs
And the Maintruck carried off both me legs
(chorus)
So here I lay in my 23rd year,
It's been 6 years since we sailed away
And I just made Halifax yesterday
