Now helmuts on ski slopes, stand up comedians being edited....Macdonald employess not having to wash their hands...time us liberals become Tories. Long live Don Rickles. C&#039;mon Canadian, can&#039;t you get f*cking pissed off about something? Saudi Arabia and North Korea will be more free than Canada in 15 years. Wake up, and thanks Ezra.</description>

		<description>We can not let this happen in America. This is what the leftists/socalists really want, total control. 

Control of what we think, what we say, what we belive and what we do. 

Going against the party line, will cost you. Right now its only costing you time and money.... soon it may be your life.

This is not freedom.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m all for free speech especially the bigoted anti-Canadian sentiments. True, we are a bunch of evil neo-soviets. Fer sure dude! Roark? Rhymes with dork. Go Ezra! There are idiots on every side, unfortunately. But s&#039;all good. As long as they don&#039;t pick on the RoP and stick it to the peacable dominion, it&#039;s cool. Will there be cartoons?</description>

		<description>Quoth Neopajama #12, &quot;Democracy is inherently bullshit.&quot;

Professional neocomrades like E. Levant and K. Schaider give every appearance of thinkin&#039; so too, though of course it would not be advisable for them to be entirely frank.

Once we wind our clock backwards to get rid of icky newfangled Democracy, the next question is whether (predemocratic) Liberalism was &quot;inherently bullshit&quot; as well.  Opinions at Wingnut City and Hooverville and Rio Limbaugh begin to diverge at this juncture.

Naturally the Friends of Eddie Burke™ follow their guru and write off this, too, as only so much Rousseauvian _merde_ , shallow chatter of shallow Enlighteners and clueless Kantians.  Equally naturally, the Confraternity of St. Adam Smith™ rather incline to regard Liberalism-sans-Democracy as the climax of Clio, even better than sliced baseball and night bread.

From outside the asylum grounds, it is striking that both these crews adore Nature despite not much agreement about what Her Ladyship is up to in the world.

Why, even Neocomrade E. Levant exhibits a sweet tooth for Nature, when he barks and bellows about certain fiends of Hyperborean bureaucracy who are (allegedly) &quot;infringing on [his] NATURAL rights of free speech, freedom of the press, and freedom of religion&quot;!

But possibly Canada is artificial through and through, unlike more normal countries, and especially unlike our own holy Homeland™?

Happy days.</description>

		<description>&quot;The Politically Incorrect Guide (PIG) to Islam.&quot;

 That comment right there made bopping over to this article well worth it ;-) Thanks Kirly-The PIG Guild to Islam! Human Rights Commissions, HRCs, what ever we call them are indeed affronts to Liberty and one more step towards fascism. Yes I imagine the HRC board members THINK they are good people. I imagine Gestapo agents, SS camp guards and Stalin&#039;s executioners all thought they were good people. Ed Gein of Cannibal fame thought he was a good person. But they are Fascist none the less.


Canada, as is Europe, is toast; I get to meet quite a few of them. They have a defeatist attitude toward State control that really bothers me. Close the damn border--let them keep their oil, electricity and whinny ways. We can do without Canadians.</description>

		<description>Unfortunately, Bob, petty bureaucrats are like crabgrass.  Pull some up and a whole new bunch will crowd in, pettier and bureaucratic-er than ever.

Our own US government is hugely weighted down by bureaucrats who live only to write memos and preserve their jobs, not necessarily in that order. I call it Jabba the Hutt government, although Jabba probably didn&#039;t spend his days writing memos :)

Ignorant people (like many on the HRC&#039;s) can only envision their tiny ideas of political correctness and imposing those notions on the rest of us.</description>

		<description>tanstaafl, petty bureaucrats are a big part of what goes wrong within democracy: too much powers in their hands while not caring a whit for people&#039;s individual liberties and pandering to the worst sort of people absolutely detrimental to individual liberty and God-given rights. Far-right extremists like Hal Turner have extreme recommendations on how to do away crooked politicians, greedy business-people and traitorous petty bureaucrats. One has to be careful not to wade into a dangerous, uncharted area of following Turner&#039;s methods while being outraged by problems that Levant had with CHRC or the Democrats&#039; totally screwed-up handling of the financial-economic crisis so far.</description>
