Layton in La-La Land





Can someone please find a sewer hole and throw Jack Layton into it? Make sure there's a grate to cover the top, throw a couple of crumbs down there for him and walk away...........


What planet is he from? Touchy-Feely-Let's-All-Hug-World?

Please pass the peace pipe............Jack wants to have a heart to heart chat with the Taliban. Of course, this is after he would withdraw our troops from Afghanistan, despite the fact that the House of Commons voted to approve an extension of our involvement until 2009. Yeah, take all the soldiers out of there and totally blow any kind of international reputation we have, bring em all home, leaving the Taliban to regain power. Then, arrange for a bunch of socialist idealogue academics from the University of Canada to meet with these heartwarming level headed Taliban good deed doers in some ballroom at a local "Best Western," to hammer out a masterplan for the betterment of Afghanistan.

Hey Jack, what are you smoking?

From the Globe and Mail........

"We believe that a comprehensive peace process has to bring all combatants to the table. You don't accomplish peace if those who are fighting are not involved in the peace-based discussion."

My first thought while reading this tripe this morning in the National paper, after I rolled my eyes in disgust? Why does anyone in this country think that we have any real clout on the international stage? We are a minor cog in this whole thing, though our troops are dedicated and respected........our leverage is miniscule! Our reputation of taking a lead in the whole "peacekeeping" millieu as being this highly recognized role.............which is constantly emphasized by the mainstream media and by political yahoos like Layton..............is bogus. Not only has peacekeeping evolved since Pearsonian Days (THE 1950's PEOPLE), most countries wouldn't know that we are known as a country of peacekeepers. It's a myth perpetuated within our own borders.

My second thought while reading this story, 10 days away from the 5th anniversary of the 9-11 disaster? Jack Layton would be a dangerous man if anyone ever took him seriously. Someone please get in touch with Red Green. We need to duct tape this man's mouth. Layton wouldn't know reality if it jumped up and bit him in the butt.


We live in a fantasy world, a world of illusion.
The great task in life is to find reality.

Good old Jack. I guess you can say whatever you feel when there is zero chance that you are going to have to govern.

Hey Muskie!

Sorry I don't get a chance to comment much anymore, life got exceedingly busy in a short period of time.

I'll be honest in that this is not entirely a social call. I have been selected to compete in a local blogging competition on the isssues facing America. It's sponsored by a business-lifestyle magazine linked to an event put on ny the Sac Chamber of Commerce.

The event is probably geared towards a slightly right-of-center audience (business people), but I'm ok with that. I posted today about it with all the appropriate links. I'd appreciate it if you would take a look - it kicks off on Tuesday.

Thanks,

Mike

I am embarrassed that a leader of a Canadian political party could be so idiotic. I hope many of those who voted NDP during the last election wake up and switch over, even if it is to vote Liberal.

Scott.......You're so right about the left........they will never be elected to run federally so they can conjure up the most inane promises and viewpoints just because they can.

Mike...... Well, we've communicated already.....and I'm on your side! Can't wait to read your posts and submissions. Bon chance.

Canuckguy.......Jack is a real embarrassment.....thank God no one outside of our fair country pays any attention.

Hey, I saw that picture of Jacko the Moonbat while looking for funny images to post of him in my slamming his positions.

Almost used it, but Jackoff Layiton is no superhero... more of a clown, as far as I'm concerned.
