6246...Mr. Marilyn Monroe Has Big Day

In 1941 Joe DiMaggio's hitting streak hit 56.  56 consecutive games with a hit.



Possibly, probably, the most unbreakable of all sports records.

6244...Pipsqueak Poilievre Is Now Honourable

That sh*t sticks for ever, eh?  Like when it all goes wrong and he is a greeter at Wal-Mart or chasing carts at Costco he will still be the Honourable Pierre Poilievre.



My real world and Facebook friend Warren Kinsella put it best in the Sun today when he wrote "Pipsqueak Poilievre...one of the Conservative Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Like the Biblical Horsemen, everything he says and does is bad. Everything that is good that he touches withers and dies."

To think that our beloved Prime Minister Stephen Harper dropped the truly Honourable Stephen Fletcher of Winnipeg to make room for this clown.

6243...Little Sh*t AKA Skippy A Cab Minister?

You may have read that our beloved Prime Minister, Stephen Harper, is shuffling the chairs in his cabinet.  The Huffington Post says that Pierre Poilievre is expected to become Honourable sometime this weak, oh, Freudian slip, week.



The MP for Barrhaven, a south western burb of your capital, is well known for being a rabid partisan.  His addition to the cabinet is a reward for being such.  "University of Ottawa political scientist Robert Asselin...told HuffPost...Poilievre’s promotion, however, was the worst thing that could happen."  Not holding back Mr. Asselin, an adviser to Justin Trudeau, went on to say that "...unfortunately if they send someone like Poilievre and they reward an attack dog and someone who spins and has no views of his own, I think it just re-enforces the spokesperson paradigm that being a minister you don’t take decisions, you just go on TV and say whatever PMO (Prime Minister’s Office) tells you to say."

6240...The Irony Of Zimmerman

The whole Canuckistanian media world has its panties in a knot over George Zimmerman getting off even though he killed Trayvon Martin.  Racist USA and all that, eh?

The irony is that cases like this, a white guy improperly killing a tinted person, happens all the time in Canada, specifically Western Canada.



Of course we all know that there are two things Canadians hate:  racists and Indians.  Sad but true.
