I refuse to buy them. I can hardly finish reading the headline, and the first two lines of the paragraph. Before I get bored with, the same old, same old, propaganda crap. Campbell's, fraudulent sale of the BC Rail trial, is such a farce, it's laughable. The corrupt sale, is held in, a corrupt court, and, presided over by a corrupt judge, who allows brain dead witnesses, in her court. However, we also know, anyone opposing Campbell or Hansen, gets a vendetta, and loses their jobs, as we have seen more than once. BC is the most corrupt province, in all of Canada. Campbell, Hansen and the phony, BC Liberals, are the worst politicians, also in the history of Canada. Come Federal Election time, BC people will not forget, Harper's part in the HST. Canada, has the worst crop of politicians, ever known. Campbell isn't even a Liberal, he works for Harper. Don't expect Campbell, to step down to save the. BC Liberal party. He doesn't give a dam, about the BC Liberal party's name.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-41619432718283812392010-09-29T06:04:43.556-07:002010-09-29T06:04:43.556-07:00I agree with Cam, I borrow papers when I'm hav...I agree with Cam, I borrow papers when I'm having a coffee or whatever, but I will not purchase. Cancelled subscription a long time ago.<br /><br />On another note, my spouse and I were watching the news tonight (glowbull) and they had this big thing about how great the owelympics were. Sheesh, what a job they did for the lieberals. My spouse who hates the news and doesn't pay much attention to politics, or at least isn't very interested so to speak in them, even the story of the owelympics raised the ire and saw it as a pure and simple pump up the lieberals propogranda advertisement on glowbull.<br /><br />Well, ask most anyone outside the lower mainland about the owelympics and they'll blow up at you.<br /><br />Yes, the great media in this province will be busy working for campbull and his corporate gangs.<br /><br />Oh, and Wally Ohhhpal for the Picton inquiry! What a joke. Sheesh. Guess that was a good pay off to him for giving up his riding to Heed (what's going on with his case?) Turns out his loss was a good thing for him in Ladner after all. And I'd like to know what we're paying him for this? Anyone doing an FOI on the matter? I see the First Nations are speaking on the matter also about not even a tiny bit of discussion with them about the process. But then, why would the government speak to anyone? It's my way or the highway is their philosophy, and I don't know nothing, seen nothing, or don't recall.<br /><br />Yes, the lieberals and their gang are going to be laying it out and on heavy in the months ahead with media playing their tune. <br /><br />Shame on them all for being stooges for the most corrupt bunch in this country. <br /><br />All the bloggers out there, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-83841687551759381812010-09-29T01:03:46.152-07:002010-09-29T01:03:46.152-07:00First of all, I have to disagree with those that s...First of all, I have to disagree with those that state they refuse to read papers like The Vancouver Sun or The Province and not listen to CKNW because of their bias towards Gordo & Co. The only way to counteract what is being said and written is to know what has been said and written. As Frosty Forst used to say about the newspapers, don't buy one, borrow one. You can listen to NW for free, just don't support their advertisers. Although Grant and others try to put into print what we hear and see, we can miss certain things. Knowledge is power, and the more eyes and ears we have paying attention, the better we will be armed to expose the crap we are being fed.<br /><br />Today, Bill Good had an interview with Carole James between 8:30 and 9:00am. I am sure that I heard Bill Good throw in a couple of derogatory remarks as Carole was speaking. I heard his voice, but couldn't make out what it was that he muttered. At the very least, it was disrespectful. Also, if you weren't listening to CKNW, you would not know that they have been running mini segments featuring BC Liberal MLAs that appear on Bill Vander Zalm's Survivor list. If you haven't been listening, you would not know that lately, Bill Good has been aiding his BC Liberal interviewees by providing certain prompts to his own questions.<br /><br />I am still trying to keep the Linda Johnson firing by Craig James in the limelight as much as possible in the hopes of embarassing the MSM to actually cover the story. Today's online edition of the Vancouver Sun has an article on the character assassination of some of the recall leaders, and posted a comment highlighting the Linda Johnson story in hopes of gaining a greater audience because I feel that Campbell through his lackey, Craig James, has taken control of Elections BC which can't be good for the referendum nor the pending recall campaigns. Remember, Craig James could try and stall recall applications in much the same fashion he used for delaying passing the vetted FightHST initiative to the standing committee. Elections BC must also supply a voters list to a recall campaign which could be delayed or even worse doctored. Gordon Campbell will stoop to any lengths to get what he wants, and as far as I can see, anything is possible.<br /><br />Am I paranoid? No. Do I believe that Gordon Campbell and his sycophants will play by the rules. Not a chance. They will use every trick in the book, legal or otherwise, to win.<br /><br />We must be extremely vigilant if we are to prevail.<br /><br />CamCrankypantsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-18799969431483911542010-09-28T19:57:55.841-07:002010-09-28T19:57:55.841-07:00Yes I heard Baldrey, Baldrey sounded angry like he...Yes I heard Baldrey, Baldrey sounded angry like he was personally affected...<br /><br />I guees Keith Baldrey is worried about his wife`s job in Government....<br /><br />Baldrey was trowing mud every which way...Cluck Cluck lobbed soft after soft ball...<br /><br />How is it a so-called legislative reporter was so hostile, isn`t his job to report, not vent...<br /><br />All is good, BC Liberals are in full blown panic mode......<br /><br />Let me put it another way...<br /><br />The BC Liberals are pushing on a string.<br /><br />CheersGrant Ghttp://powellriverpersuader.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-25629227691452630022010-09-28T19:22:54.198-07:002010-09-28T19:22:54.198-07:00Grant,

That is the margin I believe.</i>"<br /><br />Each recall effort that succeeds in getting enough signatures creates a VACANCY in the Legislature that MUST be dealt with in similar fashion to if the sitting member died - with a bye-election! Recall is a much more civilized solution to a lack of accountability by elected representatives than vacancies created by incumbent fatalities. <br /><br />Any combination of bye-election defeats for the BC liaRs and caucus losses ala Blair (the next HarpoCon MR from Peace River) Leckstrom that equals a six seat loss by the Dicktater's caucus means Gordo ain't premier anymore - it would be up to the anti-BC party (the BC liaR caucus) whether or not he remained leader of the opposition or just another fence-post with hair backbencher. <br /><br />BTW, Carole James has received the kiss of death from AGT - he loves her to death and considers her completely innocent in the wasted opportunities to defeat the evil Campbell Crime Family in 2005 or 2009. According to the man who invented vitriol, Carole has proven her leadership capability by remaining leader of the bunch of neutered gerbils that make up the NDP (dis)loyal opposition. <br /><br />Keep in mind that AGT would actually love Gordon Campbell except for the fact that even in his warped view of reality it is obvious that Gordo has destroyed the Reform/Socrud/Canadian Taliban/CRAP/Facist coalition posing as BC Liberals. If AGT thought one of the wing nut parties to the right of even the Campbell Crime Family had a prayer of electing members or forming government - that's who he would be supporting. <br /><br />Until then he will profess his love of Carole James, trojan horse to anyone to the left of Ghengis Khan or Barry Goldwater, and pray for Carole "I love big banks" Taylor or Diane Watts wrong with Surrey to rescue the hopes of Howe Street and offshore corporate interests everywhere. <br /><br />And to those wondering what's going on with the obvious (but almost ignored by the MSM) tampering with Elections BC - remember Gordo recently promised to "do whatever it takes to ensure the NDP NEVER form government in BC." We are just seeing the tip of the iceberg in terms of the lengths legal or otherwise that the white haired, prevaricating adulterer will go to uphold that one promise. No other "promises" are relevant to the habitual liaR, of course - be they wedding vows or campaign promises! Campbell won't even be honest about what he is doing at the moment, much less what he would do in the future!kootcoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11344208424209840730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-91848844867628199282010-09-28T09:52:39.385-07:002010-09-28T09:52:39.385-07:00CFAX is a BC Liberal radio station..Ever listen to...CFAX is a BC Liberal radio station..Ever listen to Sean Holman`s Sunday show?<br /><br />Sean has a regular panel of rabblers(babblers)..<br /><br />And lo n behold the panel is made up of 4 BC Liberals hacks, that includes Sean Holman..<br /><br />Holman might be honest on his blog...But his radio show is all BC Liberal all the time(refering to the babbling panel)<br /><br />CheersGrant Ghttp://powellriverpersuader.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-29205584203289002092010-09-28T09:42:24.578-07:002010-09-28T09:42:24.578-07:00This morning on CFAX, Norman Spector was keeping u...This morning on CFAX, Norman Spector was keeping up the propaganda campaign.

Another caller, some old man, claimed he had a friend who told him that he personally had a email from the Zalm, and in that email the Zalm said that he was starting another political party. When he was asked to send a copy of this email, well,the old man didn't have a computer (how convenient), but was going to get a laptop.
