Tory Legal Philosophy

Supreme Court of Canada Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin, in a very strange turn of events, publicly chastised Conservative MP Maurice Vellacott for saying something like duhhh, them judges act like they know everything. It was as if the drooling, snotty-nosed, gum eating boy was paddled by the stern head mistress.

Let's pause and just reflect here for a second on what the geist of the comments were of this window-licking, Stetson-fucking, single-celled idiot: Duhhh, that CHIEF JUSTICE of the SUPREME COURT OF CANADA thinks she knows everything. Like, ya, ok, what-ev-er. She's stupid.

Um, aren't judges supposed to act like they know everything? Isn't that appearance the foundation of our sense of trust and confidence in our legal system? Doesn't the Supreme Court offer the last bastion in our country against fascism? This jackass' comments reminds us of that shrewd, erudite Conservative campaign argument "them judges is hijacking our law system. When is they gonna stop trying to make up laws and stuff. Why can't it just be the way we want it"?

It's comments like this that are are the driving force behind Harper trying to silence his caucus.

Yes, the Tories aren't happy with the Courts and the "stacking" of apparently Liberal-minded Judges by previous administrations. This "stacking" threatens their political platform initiatives.

Nevertheless, you get more bees with honey and insulting Supreme Court Justices is not the most effective way to sway them to another point of view.

I have an announcement to make:

I am starting a NEW party: The Gay Separatists' Turn. Yes, the GST has a number of aims, including:

- Getting all of the gay people in Canada to move to PEI so we can have a majority-gay province (and what a FABULOUS place it will be; if you think Anne of Green Gables is famous now, just wait till we hold our annual Anne of Green Gables Drag Off Festival. It'll make Toronto Pride Week look like a backyard barbeque.)

- Once we control PEI, we will hold a referendum on straight people's right to get married. Given that we will be in the vast majority in that province, you can be sure that it'll be our way (gay marriage) or the highway (or, should I say the Confederation Bridge to New Brunswick). The straight people of PEI will get to vote on their rights too, though, so don't worry, they'll be treated fairly and democratically. We promise. But we might let them get civil unioned to show how magnanimous we can be.

- Childless gay couples will get a vacation tax credit to help them afford to go on holidays to Key West, Sydney Mardi Gras and EuroPride, etc.

- All services, such as fares for gay travel services, offered to residents of PEI will have to be as cheap as those offered to our heterosexual counterparts. No more soaking the gay community with exorbitant cruise fares for all-gay cruises.

- Gays and lesbians who wish to have IVF treatments to have kids will be able to do so at provincial expense, but first they will have to undergo counselling because
who in their right mind would volunteer for all those sleepless nights?!

- We will offer asylum to people fleeing their countries of origin due to persecution based on sexual orientation. Just in case you're wondering, that's STILL, in this day and age, just about everywhere on Earth out

Beverly McLachlin has more intelligence in her pinkie finger than the entire federal Conservative caucus combined.

I'd trust her and her Supreme Court colleagues to make educated, informed and progressive decisions about Canadian law any day.

I agree with diku here, I think she has more intellignece in her pinkie finger nail than the whole conservaitve caucus that is why she is chief justice of Canada and them cons are mostly MPs with a few Ministers with no role to speak of because daddy Harper wants to take care of their duties.
Too bad he couldn't control Vellacott's mouth.

Anon: Sounds like a fabulous time to me! I'm not normally a fan of tax credits, but if everyone else is getting one, we should have one too.

troll. ha. you so funny round eye.

man ass? nope. didn't see a one.
bought some new lycra briefs at
H&M on Bloor though. I was hesitant, but I had a gay retail emnployee tell me my boys would feel great in 'em.

I'm thinking about switching from boxers to briefs for the summer.

Anyone have a preference?

I much prefer boxers. My husband wears briefs, in virginal white only. They are not exactly a huge turn-on.
Do men have any preference for women's underwear?

My preference for women's underwear: off.

I agree on the boxer thing generally, but you probably haven't seen briefs like these! They are Lycra with a camouflage motif. I'm going to take 'em for a test drive tomorrow. I'll let y'all know.

K-Dough,
All this sticking up for the Supremes gotta be a joke.
C'mon, people! What are judges?
Former lawyers, right?
Who's the bane of every comedian worth his salt?
Lawyers! Losing a crowd? Tell a lawyer joke.
For example: It's so cold in Regina, the lawyers have there hands in their own pockets.Who's the most detested of lawyers? Divorce lawyers!
Don't try to tell me the Supremes, in their scum sucking careers as lawyers, didn't handle a divorce case and fuck up someones life!
So! Why all the devotion for lawyers the minute they become a member of the SCOC? Be fucked if I know! Unless someone attached divinity to one of those funny red robes with the fake fur. Kinda like Superman and his cape, eh? I kinda like what Garth Turner wrote today.
You all orta read the dude.

Billy Saul Hurok and Big Jim McBob are polling at 41%. Ouch.

Won't it be fun next year when Canadians really take a likin' to 'em, and the boys blow up Egghead #1 (Dryden) or #2 (Iggy) at the polls... REAL GOOD.

Bill Graham needs to nip this thing in the bud by telling Canadians that in spite of their gut reaction to not being lied to and stolen from anymore... that it's not really good for them.

And that Harper is actually 'Harry the Guy with the Snake on his Face'.

You don't need Lin Ye Tang to tell you how this is going to end.

Sorry, yes that was me this morning. And my post got cut off and then I wasn't able to log in again afterwards! Grrrr...

Anyway, here's the rest of my post (or what I can remember of it):

We will offer asylum to people fleeing their countries of origin due to persecution based on sexual orientation. Just in case you're wondering, that's STILL, in this day and age, just about everywhere on Earth outside of Europe, North American, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand.

Damn! I can't remember what the last point was. I'll think up something else later.

Anyone want to join me? How about you diku? Any other takers? If you sign up enough people, I'll arrange to get you a new toaster oven!!!!!!

Oh, and Pam, I hate boxers. Nothing sexy about them at all. I don't know how you can like those shapeless, boring things. I don't know what's wrong with briefs. I like wearing them (I like knowing where everything is and not finding something tucked sown one leg or the other), and I think briefs look a hell of a lot sexier on a guy (provided, of course, he has a nice body).

I mean, how often do you see those hot Calvin Klein underwear models showing off boxers?

One word of advice though, K-dough, camoflage is not so good. Go for solid colours next time (e.g. navy, black, etc.).

First off homo- camo is cool. Church street fads mean nothing to me. If camo repels gay dudes I'm happy. I'm really sick of all those gay guys suckin' my dick.

Secondly, I hope your Princess Edward Island would be inclusive. Nothing worse than reverse discrimination. I mean really- who gave the downtrodden the right to stick it (excuse pun) to the rest of us normal people?

Thirdly, leather- the combo of ripped quads, shaved nuts and humidity makes boxers a guy's worst friend. Lycra is freedom!!!

I'm in there and I'm lovin it Jerry!

Quick thoughts on the way to bed:

- I love red robes and fun fur, I admit it. I used to wear similar outfits to high school dances, until Old Squid beat me up.

- Camo underwear rocks! I love that stuff at H&M.

- Briefs definitely over boxers, although boxers do have that sort of dopey appeal.

- Briefs are made for people who's penises flop too much for boxers.
