Mega mosque

Mark writes they’re building a mega mosque next to the new London Olympic stadium.  He bets the mosque will be built on time and on budget, and paid for, long before the government run stadium.  That’s saying something.

Another year or two, and Londoners may be wishing they could sub-contract the entire Olympics to Tablighi Jamaat.

Why I like Mike

Thank you, inquiry, for reminding me why I liked Mike Harris so much.

Mike Harris angrily told senior Cabinet Ministers and two police officers, “I want the f—— Indians out of the park,” a public inquiry heard today.

The bombshell came on the second day

It’s too bad we won’t see him anytime soon on the political scene.

Where’s Coren

Interesting that it’s the religious sites that are all wondering where Coren’s gone.  I sent Coren an email (he responds very quickly) with my support.  It’s not clear where he’s going to land – I suggested satellite radio – probably not Sirius, as Slaight has a piece of it.

“LifeSiteNews.com spoke with CFRB General Manager Pat Holiday about the matter. Holiday claimed that Coren’s dismissal had nothing to do with his views. ‘It had nothing to do with free speech or religion,’ he said. Holiday admitted that Coren’s was a popular show and stressed that the dismissal was not planned.

Eric on the French riots

I read his article on the source of the uprising in France.  He fails to mention that if hopelessness and unemployment are tinder of the fire, than the gas on the fire is Islamofacism.  Like Nazi-ism, all extremisms fill a void.

You can’t make this up

The studies justifying the kennelization of children are getting ridiculous.

A new study reveals that children who spent more time in daycare were protected from their mothers’ emotional exhaustion.

Gotta love technology

Just finished listening to the radio to an old 80s song – weren’t the 80s the best decade for music?

Anyway, I didn’t know the name of the song, and since the radio station doesn’t tell you what you’re listening to, I dialed #DJ on my Fido phone, and paid a dollar to get the name text-messaged to me. 

I then went to puretracks.com and downloaded the song for $1.98.

Then, I wanted to learn more of the song and its lyrics.  Quickly googled, and in comes the info.

Bottom line – record company/artist wins, and so do I.  So why are they all complaining?  My transaction must have been 99% profit, since no humans were involved.

Update:Go to this link to bypass a frustration I just ran into when trying to play the same song on my other laptop.  Clearly, puretracks doesn’t quite have it right.

Paris is burning

A great Mark’s mailbox with some real gems:

The Lord giveth:

The liberal media finally gets what it’s been clamouring for for years, ie the Arab street going berserk.

And He taketh away:

They can’t pin it on Bush

Tough luck, suckers.

MINISTER FOR LOST CAUSES

From the AP report on the 7’th night of rioting by the RoP in Paris – we have:

“Minister of Social Cohesion Jean-Louis Borloo said the government had to react ‘firmly’ but added that France must also acknowledge its failure to have dealt with anger simmering in poor suburbs for decades.”

I think we can safely conclude France is lost when they even have a Minister of Social Cohesion.  The concept that government shall be the instrument of social cohesion, oh my, how lost.

No chance with a cokehead

Mark writes that there is little chance of Quebec ever succeeding as its own nation, especially with potential leaders like Mr. Boisclair.

That’s the real question: how come Latvia, Slovenia and even East Timor have made a go of it but one of the world’s oldest secession movements perpetually seeks refuge in ever more bogus obstacles to what would be a very viable independence?

One way to come at the answer is to look at the current frontrunner for the leadership of the Parti Qu?b?cois. He’s a fellow called Andr? Boisclair, and, if you don’t follow P?quiste politics closely, he’s the gay cokehead in the race.

Just the beginning

Mark says the nightly Paris car-B-Qs are just the start of a Europe wide uprising – barbarians aren’t at the gate, they’re within the gate.

But, whether in turbans or gangsta threads, just as Communism was in its day, so Islam is today’s ideology of choice for the world’s disaffected.

Will Canada be willing to let in all the fleeing non-Muslims?
