4132...Hillary For President?
She has a nice resume and this cut and paste from the USA Today says that "A new Time magazine poll shows Clinton easily defeating the major Republican candidates, were she somehow to become the 2012 Democratic nominee for president. Clinton leads Mitt Romney, 55% to 38%; Rick Perry, 58% to 32%; and Herman Cain, 56% to 34%, among likely voters in a general election. (Time magazine notes, 'The same poll found that President Obama would edge Romney by just 46% to 43%, Perry by 50% to 38% and Cain by 49% to 37% among likely voters.' Clinton's leads are bigger.)"
Bear in mind that a year before the Democratic convention of '08 the self same seers were anointing her the Dem nom for the highest office in the land and predicted she would win easily.
She did not.

4131...Condoms Should Be Banned In Quebec
Kevin Dougherty in the Montreal Gazette this morning opens thusly:
Well, you see, Mr. Minister, if you have more people you get more seats.
"Vallières recalled that the Quebec National Assembly has voted unanimously in favour of maintaining Quebec’s weight in the House of Commons."
Wow, we voted in favour of us, that has never happened before.
For true you pure laine social engineers should bring in a condom ban. What the heck, ban all birth control. You will see the birthrate soar. It will be like La Belle back in the day, twelve kids to a family. Then you will get more seats.

Ottawa’s plan to add 30 seats to the House of Commons, including three more in Quebec, will diminish Quebec’s weight in the federal Parliament, says Yvon Vallières, the province’s intergovernmental affairs minister.
“It isn’t enough for Quebec,” Vallières said, while conceding it was progress from previous redistribution proposals that would have given the province no new seats.
“Before we had 75 seats out of 308,” he explained. “Now we will have 78 seats out of 338.”

The ad said "Pray for rain" and had a picture of a blonde woman with an amazing world class rack photographed from the neck down and the ribs up. You get the idea. Tight white T hence the "Pray for rain".
"Advertising Standards Canada found that the ads had very little to do with promoting the station's morning drive."

3. Told just hook up and I’m ready to go. Okay.
4. Took kids to hockey, birthday parties, etc. Once home, hooked up shiny new modem.
5. Doesn’t work.
6. On phone to Rogers for hours. Spoke to close to a dozen people.
7. Variously told new modem wasn’t registered in system when I bought it. Told serial number wrong. Told old modem on file. Told many, many things.
8. All wrong. Meanwhile, Internet service is gone. Last “Rogers customer service” person is honest, at least. Says she: “We can’t fix it. You should take it back to the store.”
9. Then, she chirps: “Is anything else I can help you with?” Says I: “Are you serious?”

I remember seeing this on The Simpsons. The answer was the States, Canada, New Zealand and/or Oz. One of the things that makes us great is a police force that serves the public as opposed to control the public.
Sometimes that gets confusing, especially for the coppers. Sometimes they f*ck up. Sh*t happens.
Case in point: Deputy Inspector Anthony Bologna of the NYPD. It has been reported widely that on September 24th of this year he pepper sprayed four women involved with Occupy Wall Street.
Justice delayed is justice denied and the NYPD doesn't drag their feet. The 30 year vet of the department has been handed a two week suspension which will cost him about six grand.
This particular case should stand as a lesson to police forces across Our Home And Native Land. In less than a month this case of misconduct was resolved. If this happened in Canada there would be a Royal Commission and then the cop or cops involved would most likely be exonerated. Think of the case of the Polish immigrant who the RCMP murdered at the Vancouver Airport. Think of what happens in your town. And mine.

OTTAWA — It took high-angle rescue firefighters two hours to remove a 500-pound man from his Gatineau, Que., apartment early Tuesday morning.
The call came in around 12:30 a.m., initially to paramedics, from a man who complained of back problems.
He was unable to get himself out of his fourth floor apartment.
Paramedics were unsuccessful as well and called in specialized firefighters to help.
According to fire spokesman Guy Dagenais, high-angle rescue crews worked for two hours to get the man out of the building.
"We had to call in special equipment," Dagenais said. "Mainly a stretcher that was strong enough to hold the man."
In the end, firefighters used a basket stretcher with ropes and pulleys.
Paramedics treated and transported the man to hospital with non life-threatening injuries.

I cribbed this from Slate who wrote that
I just don't get the double standard that exists here. I/you/we know that if Rush et. al. were doing PR for the Republicans/Conservatives/Tea Party it would be fair.
Perhaps you may want to consider that the reason the Rushes of the world are the 1 % and the NPRs of the world are the 99 % is because the 1 % aren't self righteous cannibals.

4104...Texas Says Don't Do It
A bunch of Texan lawmen advised the Stephen Harpers not to push thru their poorly thought out and pandering crime bill.
Point the Texans made was that they tried and it doesn't work. Sure, if you build prisons you will fill them but that is just because Johnny Law goes on an arrest frenzy and minimum sentencing does the rest.
Will Stephen Harper listen? Yes and no. He will hear the words but he won't heed them.
Here is why. His base, good God fearing middle class Canucks, most of whom wouldn't break a law, really, really, really wouldn't break a law if they got more time. Criminals don't think that way. Criminals do crime, it is more than a job it is a passion and sentencing laws don't affect the fact that they are going to do crimes as much as our PM would love you to believe. Sure six months in jail for having a pot plant in the window of your rented condo will stop you but surely only a fool would believe that it will stop a guy in Wakefield, Kelowna or the Kawarthas who has a 10,000 plant operation over three locations from doing business.
If Mr. Harper really cared about crime he would pour his resources into the places that need help, poverty and crime centres like Regina and Winnipeg and Main and Hastings. He won't but he should.
WFDS
Point the Texans made was that they tried and it doesn't work. Sure, if you build prisons you will fill them but that is just because Johnny Law goes on an arrest frenzy and minimum sentencing does the rest.
Will Stephen Harper listen? Yes and no. He will hear the words but he won't heed them.
Here is why. His base, good God fearing middle class Canucks, most of whom wouldn't break a law, really, really, really wouldn't break a law if they got more time. Criminals don't think that way. Criminals do crime, it is more than a job it is a passion and sentencing laws don't affect the fact that they are going to do crimes as much as our PM would love you to believe.

Uh, no.
He did finish second in '92 and '96 but he finished second in the same way that Germany finished second in World War II. He was massacred.

The sadness is on two levels. First off the Tagers got taken out by Texas on the weekend and the miracle Deetroyit Lions went down to the San Fran 49ers at Ford Field.
Personally I attribute the Lions first loss of the season to the fact that Michigan coppers shut down the tractor trailer that had been at tailgates since '05. Said trailer had a ten dollar admission and some of the prettiest girls that Jason's could offer disrobing for all to see. Windsor's contribution to the NFL. It is gone and so is the undefeated season for the Lions.

“By God’s blessing, we have not been hit by a Muslim attack since 9/11. I suggest that in part, we have Major League Baseball to thank. You remember that the week after 9/11 Major League Baseball converted the seventh inning stretch from the singing of ‘Take Me Out To The Ballgame’ to the singing of ‘God Bless America.’
“Now ‘God Bless America’ is not just a song, it is a prayer. When we sing that we are inviting God to bless America, to stand beside her and to guide her through the night with a light from above. So for one brief, shining moment every night, Major League Baseball has converted our stadiums into cathedrals in which tens of thousands of ordinary Americans lift their hearts and voices as one and ask God to watch over and protect the United States. Ladies and gentleman, I think that those prayers have been heard and they have been answered.”

Human rights watchdog Amnesty International called on the Conservative government Wednesday to investigate, arrest and prosecute former U.S. president George W. Bush for torture when he visits Canada next week.
Alex Neve, secretary general of Amnesty's Canadian branch, stood in front of reporters with a stack of documents in hand that, he said, opened the door for a Canadian investigation into Bush's authorization for use of "enhanced interrogation techniques" from 2002 to 2009.
"The evidence is clear, former U.S. president George W. Bush is responsible for a wide range of human rights violations - notably torture - which constitute crimes under international law," Neve said.

Anyhow, my source, the owner of a hydroponic store in British Columbia, tells me that there is a glut of marijuana in B. C. Since the drug trade truly works as a true market that means that high supply of bud will depress prices in Our Home And Native Land. No Marijuana Board to keep prices high. No Pot Quotas to be filled. It is pure economics.
The reason for this glut, according to my source, is the publicity that Stephen Harper, Vic Toews and the glory seeking police in Canada have given to grow ops. Back in the day, a decade ago, their were a lot less of them, in fact they could [barely] keep up with the demand and the cost of an ounce of good smoke was around 300 dollars. Thanks to the PM and his gang of panderers telling the world [over and over and over] about the huge profits to be made growing weed everyone with a taste of larceny and a green thumb is running a grow op. Now that 300 dollar ounce costs 150 and is heading south.

4077...Don Cherry Is Going To Rock This Sat
I do believe.
The controversy was started when he referred to some ex goons in the NHL as wimps for wanting there to be less fighting/no fighting in the game.
I know he is not the darling of the chattering classes, heck when I worked on CBC's Living In Ottawa the dislike of him inside the building was palpable. He is the biggest star in English Canada and that is part of why he is hated by those folks.
Saturday, I believe, will be a beauty. The coach [and by the way he pretty much sucked as a coach; put it this way, he was no Bryan Murray] was lit into this week by The Montreal Gazette's Jack Todd who suggested that the due date for Don Cherry on Hockey Night In Canada was well past. It is germane to point out that Mr. Todd made his way to Our Home And Native Land in the sixties when he deserted the United States Army a couple of days before Christmas and hitchhiked to Vancouver.
Hey, I am not hating on Mr. Todd for that. In fact I think it took a lot of courage to decide that he wasn't going to go to Vietnam. 100,000 other men were also stationed in Canada.
But...
Being a deserter and not running away from that designation puts a target on Mr. Todd's back. Time will tell if the bi-jingoistic Don Cherry shoots at that target.
Me thinks he will.

4076...Please Forward This To PM Harper
Then tell him to read it out loud to his caucus.
This piece is from today's Los Angeles Times:
It is the money, honey.
WFDS
This piece is from today's Los Angeles Times:
Stephen Downing, a retired deputy chief of the Los Angeles Police Department and board member of Law Enforcement Against Prohibition, responds to The Times' Oct. 5 Op-Ed article, "Prohibition's real lessons for drug policy." If you would like to respond to a recent Times article, editorial or Op-Ed in our Blowback forum, here are our FAQs and submission policy.
Drug prohibitionists like former White House drug czar staffer Kevin A. Sabet seem to be in a panic over Ken Burns' PBS documentary broadcast "Prohibition" because of its clear and convincing parallel to today's equally disastrous war on drugs. The earlier experiment lasted less than 14 years, but today’s failed prohibition was declared by President Nixon 40 years ago and has cost our country more than $1 trillion in cash and much more in immeasurable social harm.
As a student of history and a retired deputy chief of police with the Los Angeles Police Department, I can attest that the damage that came from the prohibition of alcohol pales in comparison to the harm wrought by drug prohibition. In the last 40 years drug money has fueled the growth of violent street gangs in Los Angeles, from two (Bloods and Crips) with a membership of less than 50 people before the drug war to 20,000 gangs with a membership of about 1 million across the U.S., according to the U.S. Department of Justice. These gangs serve as the distributors, collection agents and enforcers for the Mexican cartels that the Justice Department says occupy more than 1,000 U.S. cities.
Sabet, a former advisor to the White House drug policy advisor, ignores these prohibition-created harms, making no mention of the nearly 50,000 people killed in Mexico over the last five years as cartels have battled it out to control drug routes, territories and enforce collections. When one cartel leader is arrested or killed, it makes no impact on the drug trade and only serves to create more violence, as lower-level traffickers fight for the newly open top spot.
U.S. law enforcement officials report that as much as 70% of cartel profits come from marijuana alone. There's no question that ending today's prohibition on drugs -- starting with marijuana -- would do more to hurt the cartels than any level of law enforcement skill or dedication ever can.
Worse than being ineffective, though, the war on drugs creates dangerous distractions for police officers who would rather focus on improving public safety. For example, the LAPD announced this week that it will take 150 police officers off the streets to accommodate the state's shuffling of prisoners to the county level. The state must do this to comply with the U.S. Supreme Court's order to cut our drug-war-induced overcrowded prison population by 30,000 -- and our state has already laid off thousands of teachers thanks in part to funding diverted to building more prisons and hiring more guards.
This follows on the heels of another reallocation of police resources in Los Angeles when the LAPD and the L.A. Sheriff's Department woke up to a three-year backlog of rape kits. Police labs have only a finite amount of resources, and drug testing often takes priority over other cases that demand attention. Detectives (and victims) waiting for lab results related to rape and other serious crimes stood in line for months while tests for custody-related possession of pot and other drugs took precedence.
There's no doubt that the violence, the growth of cartels and gangs, the overpopulation of our prisons and the squandering of our police resources would not occur if we eliminated illegal drug profits and implemented a non-criminal approach to regulating drugs. We did this once with alcohol, and there's no reason we can't do it with other drugs today.

Picked this up from the L. A. Times.
Amber Miller, 39 weeks pregnant, ran/walked the Chicago Marathon, grabbed a bite to eat and then had a 7 pound, 13 ounce baby girl.

4074...More Unemployment Woes For Ontario
The NBA, a league which includes the Toronto Raptors, has cancelled the first two weeks of its season.
Looks like the whole shebang could be cancelled.
The players can afford to take the hit. But what about the little guys? The collateral damage folks, the ticket takers, the cops picking up overtime, the vendors, the kids and adults selling this, that and the third? A lot, a lot, A LOT of people count on the extra hundred or two they make every time the Raptors play at the ACC. The whole season goes down you are talking five figures. Is bad.

It is going to be a Monday night football party in suburban Windsor tonight. The venue is that cute little town across the pond from the Motor City, Deetroyit, where the Lions will be taking on the Bears of Chitown.
This will be the first MNF game in a quarter century played without a Hank Williams Junior opening.
Apparently his comparing President Obama to Adolph Hitler last week was a bit much for ABC and ESPN to take.
He will be missed.

Chris Carpenter.
Roy Halladay.
Yahoo.com reports that the deciding fifth game of the opening round of the National League playoffs unfolded as "A pitcher's duel between Chris Carpenter and Roy Halladay was advertised and that's exactly what we got. Carpenter turned in a performance that will go down as one of the best in St. Louis history, pitching a three-hit, complete-game shutout to clinch the series.
Halladay wasn't so bad himself, allowing one run and six hits over eight innings. But Doc received no help from the Phillies offense and was tabbed with the hardest of hard-luck losses."
What the two aces have in common is they are both former Toronto Blue Jays.
All three teams, the Jays, the St. Lucans and the Phils are World Series Champions. Sadly for Oh Canada the Jays haven't won this century.
Perhaps it is coz they keep giving away their best pitchers?

Rob Chisholm, a Dipper MP says that "The first goal is to gain political advantage rather than serving the interests of that particular agency, serving the interests of the taxpayer and the public."

Place for CFRA talk show host Mark Sutcliffe to live.

This morning he and listeners were b*tching about the huge numbers of phone calls political parties are making in this election period in Ontario. Imagine.
This of course would not be a problem in North Korea. No elections no phone calls.
Of course there would be no open line radio shows either so Mr. Sutcliffe would have to pull a rickshaw or work in a weapons factory to make his 30K a year.
Our hero also mentioned that supporters for an unnamed political party had the gall to knock on his door Tuesday night to see if he was a supporter of their party. This is called canvassing by the way and has been done since forever. Mr. Sutcliffe told the world that he does not like to talk politics. This explains all.
Monday to Friday, 9 to 10. Always a line or six open for your calls.

http://www.threehundredeight.blogspot.com/ is the place to go and find out the facts and the facts are that, in terms of votes, very tight. In terms of seats, not so tight. In fact if the election were held today the Dalton McGuinty Liberals would have a clear majority with 56 seats.
Which means that Tim Hudak and the Ontario Progressive Conservatives are the biggest failures in the history of electoral politics.
You read that correctly.
All this maroon had to do was STFU for September and early October and the prize was his. But noooooooooooooooooooooo.
He took his clear majority, as of two months ago that was the projection, and through not having the ability to STFU, became an epic failure.
They, meaning poli sci students, will study this election forever. Books will be written. And they will all paint Tim Hudak as the biggest loser ever.
