Our Columnist section today is brimming with shiny new columns, and as usual it’s positively oozing with common sense and not-liberal thought (or is that redundant?). And yet I insist it’s true: we’re a Canadian web site, and darn it, we’re allowed to stay here in Canada and disseminate conservative thought.
Take Salim Mansur’s column today as an example. He rightly concludes that Iraqi women will be the savior of the new Iraqi constitution in the October vote, and starts his thesis out this way:
It’s a safe prediction that an overwhelming majority of Iraqis will approve their newly minted constitution in the Oct. 15 referendum.
The reasoning is simple. Iraqis want freedom, having suffered greatly for what we in the West thoughtlessly take for granted.
The lesson of last January’s election is indisputable: Iraqis are determined to put closure to their tormented history under Saddam Hussein and, despite recent bloodletting, move ahead in re-building their ruined country into a fledgling democracy.
Meanwhile, more conservative thoughts are leaking out of here:
Paul Jackson has some Alberta Progressive Conservative nether region to kick …before he dances in Alberta.
Peter Gnanapragasam takes on the failing Prime Minister’s laughable stand on Canada’s democratic deficit and explains it perfectly and succinctly.
Cinnamon Stillwell, in her SFGate.com (the online arm of the San Francisco Chronicle) column written in July (due to copyright restrictions at the San Francisco Chronicle, we have to wait 45 days before publishing those columns), she tells us the gripping story of a policeman clubbed over the head during a “march” held by leftist moonbats. And we can all relate to this one, here in Canada.
And yesterday, bringing up the rear, cough, Doug Giles found a new use for the word describing the muscular tissue which surrounds a nether region orifice, in his quest to (gently, in that Doug Giles kind of way) describe and explain the mayhem in New Orleans.
