<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;"><strong>~ ITEM:</strong> <a href="http://www.thesudburystar.com/ArticleDisplay.aspx?e=3106324" target="_blank">CBC violates election laws, posts results early </a></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>~ THAT AT LEAST WOULD</strong> top the last week of news &amp; events.. the playoffs, the William &amp; Kate nuptials, Usama getting promoted to Aitch-Ee-Double-Toothpicks, and then the topsy-turvy Canucki Federal Election, with Smilin&#8217; pro-Taliban RubNTug Jack replacing the &#8220;Natural Ruling Party&#8221; as official opposition, and riding on a protest vote to smite the Blocheads. Whew!</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Next week will seem as grey and meaningless as a post-ecstasy high to a tired clubber. Mind you bloggers and the chattering classes have enough fodder to go on for weeks of observations. Hopefully, the chattering classes will get off their pre-digested party line &#8220;journalism&#8221; and report actual news in Canada. Just because Herr Harper is now big boss for four years or more doesn&#8217;t mean all the media panderers should pander in that direction.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">As a Christian socon small-c conservative, you get all sorts of invitations to shut up, take flying leaps, and all sorts of people who &#8220;Know How You Think&#8221;. Nope. I&#8217;m just as opposed to Harperism as Chretienism as Trudeaupianism as Obamunism or Reaganism. Big gov as God is a fail, along with the bribes &amp; diversions (<em>panem et circenses</em>, 21st Century style) handed out to keep everyone sleepy and content.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Finally, and in conclusion, I&#8217;d like to remind Elections Canada that along with tens of thousands of other Canadians, Americans, Brits, and Aussies, I may or may not have flagrantly flaunted the current blackout rule via Twitter last evening, and I&#8217;d like my cell to have South-facing windows, occasionally tipple Glen Livet and Glen Fiddich, and a T1 internet line is simply a must. Along with 24/7 room service.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Come and get me ya bullies, once you&#8217;re done waterboarding Peter Mansbridge and that MacKay-hatin&#8217; wench Wendy Mesley at the haunt of tax-funded crime, the Ceeb. ~</p>
