(thanks sinned34!)

Anytime, Jason. Jenova forbid I actually blog about this shit myself, but I figured I should pass it along to someone who comments with much greater eloquence and thoughtfulness than I.

The optimist in me sees this kind of crap as conservative’s last ditch effort to fuck shit up before they are thrown from office.

Sadly, Ashleybell, we’re not even a year into the CPC’s 4 year Majority Reign. The dick swinging is only going to get worse as Harper’s minions become emboldened in the next three years.

I forgot that this was the same douchebong who was one of the long gun registry loons. Canadian Politician: You're Either In Favor Of Letting The Gov't Spy On Your Internet Usage... Or You're For Child Pornography Vic Toews Apparently Not A Fan Of Others Seeing His Personal Data As an aside, did you notice this, Canada? Canadian Universities Agree To Ridiculous Copyright Agreement That Says Emailing Hyperlinks Is Equal To Photocopying More perfectly ridiculous attacks on education (and reality) by copyright holders.

Hey I’ve just had a thought, maybe he’s in support of this wholesale, warrantless, privacy ravaging datamining because soon he’ll have no other way of finding out who has long guns

I see that ‘anonymous’ has him squarely in their sights and have now outed his mistress

The optimist in me sees this kind of crap as conservative’s last ditch effort to fuck shit up before they are thrown from office. The only actively functioning part of the gov. here in the U.S. has been the legislative branch. If something good has come about, they did it. They screw up too. like with the initial ruling of prop 8, but that got shot down in flames. If I were president, knowing my first two years would be useless against a republican heavy congress, I would put all my effort into working on DOJ initiatives.

Rick Mercer covered this in a rant this week. Sometimes I wonder if other Canadians actually support these Conservative policies. I mean, I can’t imagine how Harper gets away with it unless people are that apathetic or generally agree.

[…] the Conservatives are trying to be the Republicans of the North, flip-flopping about major issues and attacking anyone who dare point that out is a logical next […]

I’m not going to email that creep. He’d have you on the sexual offenders and no fly lists, like that **snaps fingers**

This is all part of the worst case scenario we all knew would come about if we gave Harper a majority. The more insane branch of the Conservative Party ie the ‘Reformers’ is firmly at the helm of Parliament these days, and the ride has only just started. Hang on tight.

Well, I sent Vic an email. CC’d the usual suspects as well. I expect to hear nothing in response.

And after all that destroying of the Canada Census over “privacy”? Have I ever told you how much I despise Harper and his cronies, Jason? The hate burns with the fire of a thousand suns.
