This  little pussy of a blogger banned me from posting on his blog-lol.

Below are my comments to his little mini-rant on our Constitutional protection of the values we espouse

 - - - -

He writes:

 

"In other words, there is absolutely no need to waste Canadian tax dollars on them -- not even a penny!"

--

So I take it you would feel the same way then, my
fellow Canadian, when it comes down to paying
for the corrupt Afghan judiciary, yah?

Seeing how youre such a wise penny pinching Canadian
why dont we cut off all aid altogether until they
get their "accountablity" shit together?

I am referring to our country paying the police in cold hard CASH rather than the Afghan provinces who were supposed to disperse the funds but keep it for themselves.

That we would provide training and expertise (yes your tax dollars at work) so that people can be tortured without
benefit of trial is to epitomise despicability and
work in opposite towards the goals we are trying to achieve?

OR did you forget our soldiers are there for a reason other than to die so that Afghans can be tortured?

Back when the original Bladerunner came out..it actually lost money.

Thats what happens when you release a film to compete

against a green martian who loves M&M's that children flock to.

By this I mean to refer to a movie called: . E.T.

But few movie goers today would have trouble recognizing the name Sir.! Ridley Scott

as being synonomous to one the best reputations in the business

for delivering top notch sure-fire entertainment.  

 Meanwhile here in the virtual world of reality, more eye

catching headlines destined to make table top and dinner

conversations irresistably more endearing.... 

 cannabis replacing opium poppies in Afghanistan.

 But I'll tel yuh this...heres a real must have for Vancouverites on

that evening winter stroll down Granville Street, jah?

Meanwhile, I do not think such a faux art neveau would be of

much benefit at my present locale..

nice contrast though.....



Click here if you are drop dead tired of reading about

new Michael "Yawn" Mann films (Alex Litvinenko spy thrills anyone?)

in the works!

This is the age of media irresponsibility. And poor media accountablity.  Print media is running scared.

Arms dealer implicates Canadian ex-prime minister in cover-up 

 http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/afp/canada_germany_justice_schreiber_politics_mulroney

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Former prime minister Brian Mulroney allegedly tried to hide cash payments of 300,000 dollars he received from an arms dealer now facing charges in Germany the CBC reports. 

- -  

This reminds me of when the leader of the U.S. met with the leader of Canada prior to entry in the last world war, just off the eastern coast of Canada. Apparently, Germany had a spy planted at the Swiss Embassy in Europe who lifted secret plans that had been relayed there from the Swiss Embassy in the U.S. This came about because the American VP at that time was congenial enough with the Swiss diplomat to share information (being his sisters husband), although he never knew he was a Nazi dupe.

--

"Henry Wallace, the Vice-President, was an even greater liability, happily confiding his plans for world peace – and his disparaging view of FDR – to a Russian spiritualist, from whom they no doubt quickly made their way to others. Worse still, Wallace’s sister Mary was married to the Swiss Ambassador, Charles Bruggmann, whom Wallace would ring on a daily basis, passing on everything said in Cabinet as well as FDR’s most secret conversations with Churchill. Bruggmann dutifully cabled the lot back to Berne, from where ‘Habakuk’, a Nazi agent inside the Foreign Ministry, passed it on to Hitler."

Long before Tom Ellison admitted to having sex with his teenage students at a Vancouver high school, two filmmakers were quietly gathering threads of a "secret" that had been the subject of gossip for more than 25 years.

Claritus, integrity and proportion

I thought this was neat because it only re-inforces a thought

I previously held to be true anyway, that what makes art fine

are its imperfections anyway

And they say all art aspire to reach the state of quality of music.

THE CONTRACTOR

The first

novel to address the issue of
American secret prisons in the war
on terror.  

It captures the terrifying
strains between politics, public
service and private life.

...dramatizing the deals
one negotiates with oneself and
others:  the human contract.  

The story of Cain and Abel.

To rave reviews...:
