Sh*t my Premier Says

Believe me,Nobody BS’s and Lies like Premier Clark!

It seems every Friday we end with a blog post detailing the Shenanigans, Gaffes and Bulls*t Premier Christy Clark and her Government are responsible for..

Every week we get hand delivered a new set of lies . It’s almost as if you can go to the BC Liberal web site,enter your email or subscribe and get straight to your inbox this weeks nonsense.

It’s simple just set up a Google Alert and every night like a horror movie your Blackberry or iPhone goes ping and you can see first hand what Christy Clark screwed up that day.

Be prepared,each nights Alert is a long list.

This week I have received a plethora of stories from such authors as Ales G Tsakumis , Warren Kinsella and Michael Smyth. Tonight no doubt I will get one from Lindsay Kines.

Sometimes I even get my own, although this week I entitled my Blog Piece about the fumbling of the Clark Government: Stephanie Cadieux should resign! I don’t have an Alert set up for her because, well, she is irrelevant.( I heard her on the radio a day or so later and she sounded even more incompetent on that medium)

This brings us to a piece by Justine Hunter discussing the BC Liberals trying to work out their differences with the BC Conservatives.

No matter what Fantasy land Phil Hochstein or John Reynolds live in, this will never happen.

The Clark Government don’t know how to tell the truth and certainly will never earn my trust.( or the voting public’s for that matter)

A child could be drowning in the Fraser River and Clark and her entire cabinet could form a chain and pull the kid to safety. The public’s reaction: So what; they were probably looking for a photo-op and tossed the kid there in the first place!

Nothing can save these people because they have passed the point of no return. Certainly no BC Conservative I have ever met would want to join up with them.

Why would we. These people are arrogant and corrupt as we shall see if we ever get lucky enough to have a full inquiry into BC Rail.

They need to be flushed away in the next election.

For a lot of us with Christy Clark in Google Alerts it can’t come soon enough!

What are your thoughts?

On October 21 the BCNDP and Adrian Dix will get a chance to define themselves!

Who will Win Mayor Moonbeams old Riding?

The coming battle between Geoff Meggs and George Heyman in Vancouver Fairview will present Adrian Dix and the BCNDP at chance to define themselves.

In one corner you have Geoff ( I declare war on the car and lean-to the far left ) Meggs versus George ( I am in the center and would have made a good leader) Heyman.

This nomination will be worth watching for a lot of reasons:

Will Adrian come out and support buddy Geoff sending a message he like his friends and that the party is veering left?

Will he support George and send a centrist message to the voting public?

Will Meggs if he wins immediately resign his municipal Councillors seat?

Will Mayor Moonbeam get involved and demonstrate a win for Meggs means bicycle lanes across the province? ( Maybe they will put one up one the Pat Bay Highway from the ferry terminal to the legislature for Meggs to peddle his way to work?)

Will George learn the hard way that even though he thinks he is going to win there will be a busload of last-minute membership sign ups for Meggs enabling him to defeat from the jaws of certain victory?

Will Adrian sit squarely on the fence,support neither of them and still profess to be a leader?

What do you think,will this race define the BCNDP?

Stephanie Cadieux Should Resign!

Stephanie Cadieux: It’s Okay I didn’t know what I was talking about!

“She said that was not explained to the public when she called for an end to the bonus program last fall, because she was unclear how it all worked at the time.”

The above is a statement from Social Development Minister Stephanie Cadieux explaining why the bonuses were simply not taken away from Community Living Executives last fall and instead rolled into their pay packets as raises.

Most people are screaming that it is disgusting that Senior Executives were rewarded after being involved in a scandal and rightly so.

I find it even more incomprehensible to me that this Minister shot her mouth off without knowing how the process worked!

Incomprehensible but not surprising as this is a trait of Christy Clark and her Ministers, namely talking first and thinking second!

Have you had enough of these people yet?

The Specter (Horror) of an Ontario Election!

While we wait for the results from Greece why not turn our guns I mean attention to Ontario, the have not promise that is still haunted by the Ghost of Bob Rae.

I am talking about provincial Bob, the former Premier who has gone on the bigger and better things as the Interim leader of the dying Federal Liberal Party.

Why is it Bob is always around when things start to die off.

But I digress.

This week and since April Ontario voters have been haunted ( nauseated is probably a better word) at all the BS coming out of Queen’s Park relative to discussions between Dalton ( I don’t have a clue what I am doing but I sure know how to run a deficit) McGuinty and Andrea ( Will people please quit reminding Ontarians how much my party and Bob Rae screwed up the last time we were in power) Horwath trying to save the Liberals recent budget.

In a stroke of genius ( Genius is a BC word we use to describe stupid things Christy Clark and the BC Liberals do),Horwath walked away from an earlier agreement with Dalton ( Hey I can always run for the Federal liberal leadership if I blow my minority parliament) McGuinty and introduced amendments to the budget legislation that Tim ( I lost an election I should have won) Hudak immediately supported.

This caught Andrea ( I didn’t think that far ahead) Horwath off guard and now the Province of ( Hey western Canada your bloody oil is screwing up our manufacturing) Ontario is bracing for an election in neither wants,needs or can afford.

So where does Bob ( I didn’t run for liberal leadership because I didn’t want to do to Canada what I did for Ontario) fit into this?

The voters are terrorized by his memory and think a snap election could result in yet another NDP government taking a have not province into even greater depths of havenotery (My word).

Here is a comment from one such terrorized voter : Horwath and the rest of her communist/socialist cohort prove once again that when push comes to shove they would rather sit behind the safety of their rock and throw sticks and stones & manipulate the press then really tackle the issue and call McGuinty’s bluff. There is a reason the NDP will never be leaders and it is never more obvious then right now!

Kinda speaks for itself doesn’t it!

Do you think Ontario will be plunged into a needless election and elect an NDP government led by Andrea( She’s a knucklehead along the same lines as Christy Clark) Horwath?

Can you imagine the mess she would make not only of the province but also the country?

Adrian Dix ; A Discriminating Look at a Potential Premier!

So the latest poll shows farebeater and NDP leader Adrian Dix picking up a few points in the best overall potential premier category dropping soon to be deposed BC Liberal Leader and current Premier Christy Clark into second place.

If Dix wins what will he stand for?

Today we begin an 11 month long series into what BC Might look like under Adrian Dix,

We will begin with..Discrimination.

At the recent BC NDP Annual convention Dix went on the record when he said “as of the 2013 provincial election, elected female NDP MLAs who retire will only be able to be replaced with another woman. Male MLAs who retire will have to be replaced with either a woman or a member of an equity-seeking group, such as a member of a First Nation.”

In other words if you are not a woman nor a part of an equity-seeking group you need not apply.

Dix passes the off as controversial and says it will affect only a small number of seats because the BCNDP is so sure they are going to win nobody will quit.

It is a lot more than controversial, it is basic discrimination aka racism.

But to Dix and his party a little bit of discrimination is okay as long as it is contained.

If you were a regular company posting this as part of a job ad you would be drawn and quartered by both the labor board and a human rights council.

So in a BC under Adrian Dix and the BC NDP discrimination is acceptable.

Is this what you want your province to look like?

Lead, Follow or Get out of the Way!

I solemnly swear to be the best Follower I can be because I don’t have a clue how to Lead. I will do so until I am shown the door and told to Get Out of the way!

Nice I headline to start today’s blog. I didn’t make that up either.( As in just like the headline I didn’t make up yesterday if you are new to my blog).

It comes via a friend from Thomas Paine one of the founding fathers of the gold ole USA and can be found in his paper ” The Crisis”

It is a fitting metaphor that political writers use when political leaders are in over their head and decide to be followers rather than leaders.

Our current and soon to be deposed Premier Christy Clark finds herself in a “Crisis” of her own making in that rather than doing the things she promised to do when she ran to be the leader she chose to be a follower of her people in Cabinet.

These would be the same people who created the mess that she had the opportunity to show leadership on when she first became Premier un-elect.

So now, as the quote says she will likely be told to get out of the way.

How long do you think it will take?

Christy Clark: “She is no longer over Performing her Party!”

Ding Dong the wicked witch is starting to look like a tired old hag!

I didn’t think of that headline myself. It was spoken by Kyle Braid of Ipsos Reid who revealed today’s poll results ( not to be confused with yesterday’s lousy results reported in my blog and the Globe)

Braid reveals a new tidbit with this piece of news because now not only does the public have any use for Clark but officially neither does her party!

Expect phone huddling and meetings over the weekend looking for the quickest way to make her disappear.

Clark did not help herself with her recent mauling of Mario Canseco of Angus Reid. These guys will and did get you Christy.

In another piece of irony the Vancouver Sun uses the same picture to announce Dix’s improvement in the polls as they did when he recently stole his way ( farebeated) onto public transit.

I can sneak onto transit,get caught and still have a chance to be Premier, Nice Country this Canada!

Will we replace one corrupt government with a another who leader’s moral compass is obviously screwed up?

Or will the people come to their senses and vote BC Conservative?

What do you think?

If an election were held today BC Liberals would be decimated!

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse for the Christy Clark Liberals it does.

Along comes Forum research with another poll showing that if an election were held today the Clark team would be decimated.

Premier ‘I don’t pay attention to polls” Clark will pay attention to this poll, she will have no choice.

I would think,that although there is still a bit of space between where they are and rock bottom, the chants for Clark’s head will start again ( If they ever stopped)

With this poll this election now becomes more than losing a few seats, it ( No how much BS Comes out of the mouth of Mike McDonald) will be about losing a party.

You can now expect to see the beginning of an exodus of Conservative Volunteers from the BC Liberal party to the safer confines of the BC Conservatives.

My Guess: Clark is gone and likely before the big convention in the fall.

What do you think?

Christy Clark Fumbles her way through yet another News Conference!

How many times do I have to answer that Question ? How about until you answer it you blockhead!

I never started this blog as a open window to the world on what an idiot we have as a Premier but Christy Clark makes this too easy.

Case in point: Today, in this the week of Clark rolling out old announcements trying to make them look new, she couldn’t answer a simple question about how much money she was committing to the so-called St.Paul’s redevelopment project.

She told reporters a number of times she had already answered the question but of course she hadn’t. She was finally able to come up with an answer but what was galling was that she actually thought she answered it.

Even worse when repeatedly asked to go on record with an answer she got lippy with reporters.

She is such a dolt that she can’t remember from one word to the next what she says.

This kind of off the cuff stuff from Clark gives credence to the story that she makes this crap up as she goes along.

About the only bright side is that if the BC Liberals leave Clark in as leader we will have another 11 months of this unintended slapstick provided by the hapless Premier.

Does the fact that the Premier is a dope make you laugh or cry?
