Quickly! Someone Call Mall Security!

The details of this story are highly technical so I will defer to Michael Geist who has been streaming a steady diet of updates and information regarding the so-called iPod Tax. For those details, click on the caption below the picture. It is not the technical issues here that concern me. It is the story behind the details of the Bill C-32 and the fact that the Government, is openly telling lies about the Opposition's position on such a bill that is troubling me.
Clement and Moore telling lies in the Rideau Center
I confess that my interest in this subject is entirely to do with these lies and these liars.


I can honestly say that I have not contributed more than a handful of change to the music industry since 1985. I do not download music, I do not listen to it on the radio, not even in the car, nor do I go to concerts. Don't get me wrong music is not foreign to me.

I have been singing most of my life and I played the guitar until my hands got so arthritic that I had to quit, but still get up occasionally to belt out Dylan tunes with a band or at Karaoke events. I no longer drink but still go to the bar across the street and it has live music 3 nights a week. I have music in my head and in my soul and yet unless it is coming from my own mouth or is live in the room, it is only a nuisance to me. If it is recorded, my interest in it is unnaturally lacking.

But when a couple of middle aged and anal-retentive so-called leaders of men take the time to set up an elaborate dog and pony show in a Mall at Christmas time with the sole intent of telling scripted lies about men much more capable, and have the nerve to direct those lies at Children, (and if you know Ottawa you know that Rideau Center is a place frequented by huge numbers of teens 7 days a week), I am more than interested, and the hair on the back of my neck stands straight up and I concentrate so as not to shiver. This is very creepy behaviour in my way of thinking. I am glad to see that the opposition has gotten to the point that they actually call it "lies" and no one in Canada bothers to stop them.

Even the too often comatose MSM sometimes knows a lie when it hears one! And even it knows that this is one. I can name a hundred more such orchestrated lies, and each of them is as music in my mind. They have a rhythm and a melody that speaks of eventual redemption.

Maybe when this amateur troupe of fools and scoundrels is made synonymous with liars and kleptocrats, I can put my feet up and listen to some tunes again. At this point in my life there is no rest from this feeling of distance I suffer when I think of the Canada that I had always seen as unassailable. It seems far off at the moment.

This story needs to go viral. It's much more bizarre than Helena's failure to behave in an airport. I do not know why this story couldn't result in at least metaphoric Drowning for this summers self proclaimed hero. One would have thought he had had enough failures for one year.


" @NotTonyClement: I just saved a couple of lives at the mall. I am again a hero. Although business is slow at the HMV. .... #Twit "

Seriously, this is creepy stuff! This is our Government? And these guys are ministers in the cabinet? Should they not know better? I've got lots and lots of questions for these guys. My New Years resolution is to be able to get some rest next year and with a government as odd as these guys, I don't feel that that will be possible. They have been telling this lie in the House f Commons for weeks but this is beyond their realm of immunity.

UPDATE: A day later I found this on FaceBook and Added My two cents worth. Fite Fire with Fire!



I cannot imagine what a year 2011 is going to be! I will not leave any of you CONS to settle in any one place comfortably without Challenging anything that you say. The Opposition lives and it thrives in the Grassroots collection of Canadians brave enough to not put up with your LIES any longer!


The next time you use our kids as props you will be challenged. ou never know who is going to be in the next mall that you try this in!


I want leaders who understand that Children are not Props for Propagandists. Now watch as our Prime Minister lets us know that water is for the Propagandist and not the Props.

These Cons are Bumbling, Creepy, Ideological, Fundamentalist Corporate Rovian Oddballs. And these guys represent our best?
 
Bull Shit!

I received a link via Comments below and will gladly share it Here: Marc Garneau wades in to counter and to denounce the lies of the Cons regarding liberal intent on this subject!

What Would It Take?

**
The simple Question? What would it take to make a man who knows as much as I do about; Stephen Harper, his Cabinet, his Agenda, his Caucus, his Methods, his odd Vision of Canada and his Dismal Record (see earlier stories for details on these) to forget all that CRAP and give him my support?
*****************************
What Would It Take?


If poor Stephen Harper’s pencil was Sharper,
If Peter MacKay was OK,
If a screaming John Baird didn’t make my Cat Scared,
If I had any faith in Stock Day.


If Good Math from Jim Flaherty wasn’t a Rarity
If Garry Lunn was more Fun,
If Peter Van Loan didn’t make my dog Moan,
If Rob Moore was not an odd pun.


If Jason Kenney had smarts, even any,
If Ms. Raitt was not so irate,
If Gerry Ritz was not still on the fritz
If I thought that Bev Oda could Skate.


If Tony Clement wasn’t made of Cement,
If the Backbenchers weren’t a sorority
If I thought Gerald Keddy would ever be ready
I still wouldn’t grant them Majority.

Update: It has recently become apparent that Bev Oda can indeed ^NOT skate.
