lgf: Looking Terror in the Eye

Go to LGF and follow the links to this 9/11 story:

Here’s a chilling account from the ticket agent who checked in Mohamed Atta and Abdul Aziz al Omari at the airport in Portland, Maine: He looked terror in the eye – and blinked. (Hat tip: Richard D.)

More young offenders

Sure, they may have caught a serial teenage rapist, but thanks to the YCJA, we won’t get to know too much if anything about him and what he did.  Great country.

A 16-YEAR-OLD Mississauga youth will be back in court this morning, charged with one count of sexual assault that is potentially related to a string of attacks in the area since November.

Protest the YCJA!

Mr. Dithers is a pro

Nobody can play both side of the fence better than a liberal.

PM says Canada won’t join controversial defence system

So, when a missile comes flying over Canada to Washington, DC, and it appears it’s off course and heading to Toronto, does the PM want a phone call so he can have a meeting to strike a committee to study it, after taking a few polls?

Bush in Europe

Mark says America is visiting its old girlfriend…and apparently all that’s left are memories.

International relations are like ex-girlfriends: if you’re still deluding yourself you can get her back, every encounter will perforce be fraught and turbulent; once you realise that’s never gonna happen, you can meet for a quick decaf latte every six – make that 10 – months and do the whole

Can’t be any dumber

Here’s an idea for the registry.

Perhaps, it is time to rejig the firearms registry as a dangerous offender registry and start registering the names of people who are not allowed to possess firearms, rather than listing the guns of people who scrupulously obey the laws. It certainly could not be any more useless than the current firearms registry and, in all likelihood, it will actually provide some benefit to the public safety.

Up, up and away

Not reassuring when even the boss isn’t sure what prices he’s raising.

“My understanding is it does not affect residential consumers,” McGuinty told reporters on his way into a Liberal caucus meeting.

Let’s see, my water bill’s up 10%, milk is up 10%, oil is up 25% in a month…. and it’s getting close to tax time.

It’s easy to get worried about money these days.

Update: What do these commodities all have in common?  They are controlled by cartels!  Aren’t monopolies grand?

Derringer on daycare

John doesn’t like the idea of a national day care.  It’s amazing how husbands with stay-at-home moms think the same way.

In a nutshell, a family where the husband makes $100,000 and his wife stays at home will pay up to $5,000 more in annual income tax than a family in which the parents each make $50,000. There is no explanation other than to punish those who choose to stay home.

Amen to this:

No job, no career, no calling she might possibly accept could make me respect or love her more than I do …. If she was going to Sunnybrook to perform heart surgery, I wouldn’t find her any more impressive than I do …

I like it too

Someone else really likes The O’Reilly Factor.

That said, your nightly presentation, The O’Reilly Factor, has now become my favourite TV show. So much so that, if I have a commitment elsewhere, I tape it. It’s a no-miss event.

I am thrilled it’s giving the Liberals fits.

It’s happening in Britain…can competition be far behind for Canada Post?

The UK government has announced that its monopoly letter carrier the Royal Mail is to face full competition starting January 2006.

Most powerful Canadian

Do you know Canada’s most powerful man?  Mark Steyn didn’t think you did.

Most of us know Paul Desmarais as the . . . well, let’s hold it there: most Canadians don’t know Paul Desmarais at all.

A ton of

…crap is spewed out of Mercer’s one ton challenge voodoo-science ads.

The Liberal government has doled out more than $26 million in a dubious two-year advertising blitz to convince Canadians to cut pollution – including an $85,000 commercial fee for comedian Rick Mercer, Sun Media has learned

Doesn’t this make you mad, as you write out your big tax checks in this -10C weather?

How much longer are the sheeple of Canada going to fall for this pack of lies?  Shut up then and go turn down your furnace and put on your parka.

Fight for life

If you don’t think the unborn can and will fight for their life, no matter how selfish, persistent, and brutal their mother can be, then read this.

A BABY survived at least three attempts to abort him before he was born alive at 24 weeks old.

The boy was delivered by doctors in hospital – just hours after his mother left an abortion clinic.

He’s no real friend of the right, but damn, Monday Report is the best show on the CBC in a long time.
