(Hat tip The Patriot) – Lorrie Goldstein says some right things today in his Toronto Sun (Sun Media) column. I hope in future columns he helps me and our PTBC columnists explain the difference between liberals and conservatives, because it goes a long way toward explaining the Dummitude of Canada (hello CBC, Globe and Mail, Toronto Star, Canwest Global Papers, CTV, all public schools, colleges and universities, liberals generally…)
Guess what, war is hell
For all those who wondered what the mindless, idiotic repetition of the phony idea that we are a “peacekeeping” nation would do to Canadians over the long term, now we know.
Today, we can’t stomach 32 military deaths fighting for a just cause before crying “uncle.” Shame on us.
Shame on us for betraying our soldiers, who continue to do the tough job we asked them to do for us in Afghanistan.
Where would we be today if our parents and grandparents had displayed the same lack of resolve toward Hitler?
[…] So could someone in Ottawa ask him how he squares what he said then with what he’s saying now, that we should run away and—God help us—negotiate with the Taliban?
Uh, negotiate what with the Taliban, Jack? The separation of mosque and state? Women’s and children’s rights? Union contracts with mandatory bathroom breaks for suicide bombers? C’mon!
The sad spectacle of Layton going wobbly on a mission he supported a year ago speaks to why the NDP isn’t up to the job of running a lemonade stand, let alone the country.
…Or to put it another way, it’s the “you’ve got to be kidding party” (© 2005 Joel Johannesen and maybe one ‘o them ™ – all rights reserved unless you mention my name in the paper).
Mr. Goldstein acknowledges:
And Layton isn’t even the root problem. He’s the symptom.
PTBC tries to explain the root cause and could use some help.
PTBC was founded by Mr. Johannesen in 2000.
