South Africa Trumps Canada on Human Rights?
Pundification of the Day:
Yesterday, South Africa, a country with a relatively recent violent history based on INSTITUTIONAL RACISM, namely Apartheid, voted to recognize same-sex marriage. However, in ultra-modern, human rights-respecting Canada, Stephen Harper - our head of state- and many of his cro-magnon cow-fucking cronies still oppose same sex marriage.
Hmm.
Thank you and good night.

Speaking of being on the wrong side of South Africa these days, how come we never hear from Rob Anders anymore?
His hillbilly musings used to make Pat Robertson blush.
Isn't that something? Garth Turner's a pariah, and Rob Anders is still in caucus? I guess no one cares about him because he hasn't been in the Globe or Post lately.
The question should be "why is he still in caucus?" and I think you've answered that question. Precisely because we never hear from him.
They've surgically removed his brain and replaced it with a piece of tasty over-cooked Alberta strip loin.
That would explain the drool bucket next to his desk in the Commons....
Lance- You are quite correct sir. I am guilty of said equivocation. Perhaps I should have underscored the fact that my blurb was a blurb and not a thesis.
However, I am not sorry, because it gave me the chance to type the phrase "cro-magnon cow-fucking cronies".
Oops. Upon revisiting that phrase it's not clear whether I meant that the cows were cro-magnon or the person copulating with them was...ahh nevermind. You get my point.
O geez Lance- I relent. I can't let you get off that easy.
The point I am trying to make goes something like this:
In Africa, gays and lesbians face much more open, legislated and violent discrimination than in the West. There are the same bigotted detractors in South Africa as there aer in the rest of Africa and North America for that matter. But that entire nation state does not, in fact, support the recent legislation although enough do to have made it happen.
Even though similar legislation has passed in Canada, our own head of state disagrees with it. My mistake was that I should have included all anti-SSM Liberals in the group of cow fuckers.
Would that have helped to quell your criticism?
Oh godd Todd. You always know how to ruin a party don't you?
Yes, the GG is technically the figurative, obsolete, stuffed dress head of state in Canada.
Let me set the record straight then: K-Dough does not in any way, shape or form believe that Prime Minister Stephen Harper is a sexy black woman from a third world Caribbean nation representing the Queen of England in Canada who wears a dress, usually.
Now Harper wearing a sexy dress and marching into the House of Commons is a site I wouldn't want to miss.
CC- nah nah na nah nah. Too late to the party- errrr small coffee gathering.
South Africa, the same country that recognizes same-sex, does sweet fuck all about the fact that 1 in 5 of it's people have Aids... oh yeah, way to get those priorities straight guys.
Course, given the fact that Canada is importing South African doctors by the bakers dozen, it's probably all Harpers fault they've done nothing about the Aids epidemic there.
The head of state is the Queen.
Any sentence with the words "head" and "the Queen" in it makes me feel special things in my southern colonies.
JC- did you see the comment I left for you over at Chucker's place?
I did, and I replied... stupid google fucked up my brillant response to your response regarding my comment yesterday...
I'm working on it mate, give me a couple more days.
So... if the Governor General is the Head of State, is she "giving" head when she goes down on her husband, or is it called something else for the sake of propriety?
Can wives come? I anticipate a serious ballbusting if my wife discovers I'm laying over in TO for an extra night or two just to get bombed... she likes to shop in TO.
Why, of course... it's only dinner.
are you saying there is something fundamentally wrong with cow-fucking? because i think that the main argument in the conservative criticism of same-sex is that if we allow gays to marry then we'll have to concede the same rights to cow-fuckers, and so on.
and i, personally, would LOVE an answer to joe's astude ponderings? DOES the queen "give" head????
JC- by the way, if she is head of state and the Queen is "the state" does that mean she goes down on the Queen?
Yikes. In her day the Queen was pretty hot, but these days....eek.
Well... technically she's standing in as the representative of the Queen right?
So would that make it "Surrogate Head"?
Could the Queen call up one of her Governor Generals and say "We've got a headache today, so we need you to polish the royal knob of the Prince Consort for us... there's a good lass".
Conversely, could the Prince Consort say "I'm to tired to keep the Mrs. Happy, fly out here and clean her carpet for me will you?"
Methinks this conversation would engender a "We, are not amused" comment from the Ol' Lady.
Surrogate Head- what every marriage needs!
JC- your comment about your wife intimates that you are now having uncomfortable foreboddings about the dinner chatter aren't you?
I'd be especially worried about Sheena...
I think every marriage needs more than surrogate head. It just doesn't seem fair to me.
Not at all... My wife is a potty mouth of titanic measure. Her and Sheena may very well be soul sisters.
The downside is Mrs. Joe is one of only 2 women I've ever known to consume an entire bottle of Tequila, and still make it to the room... I swear she's got a hollow wooden leg when it comes to booze.
Must be the Ukranian in her.
Pam:) Isn't that how Dads get in trouble with the babysitters? Surrogate head and all?
JC: Well, she has that in common with me at least (the Ukrainski factor). My wife is no slouch either. She can suck 'em back and shoot stick with the toughest of them!!!
Pam: What's not fair? And where have you been lately?
Surrogate head is not fair, K. It's gotta work for all teams.
I've actually been hell this week, thank you for asking.
Pam- Very true. I would never have it any other way.
Sorry about your hell...
Why thank you,k-dough. Tequila is sounding very good tonight, but unlike Mrs. K or Mrs. JC I cannot hold my Jose.
One tequila, two tequila, three tequila four.... four tequila, five tequila, and Joe Calgary runs into the door... six tequila, seven tequila, eight tequila more... nine tequila ten tequila and Joe Calgary pukes on the floor.
Ah, partying is such fun.
Mrs. Joe and I play a game when we are in the south called "1 block, 1 tequila shooter".
Essentially, we start at 9am, and for every block of shops we walk, we have to stop and find a bar to have a shot in. The downside is that there isn't always a bar on the block, so you have to save them up until you find one. At noon, we have to finish the game by finding a restaurant with a killer margarita special, and pound them back until one of us gives in... Unfortunately Mrs. Joe has never lost, but there's always hope for the next vacation.
Okay, so it's kinda childish... but fun, oh so fun.
Heh heh. Don't worry, i can always bring El Chaperone.
I was thinking more along the lines of "El designated driver"...
Sheena, my first experience with litre bottles of beer in South America, I'm driving a Renegade with no suspension, drinking like a fish, and I need to pee.
Stop at a corner bar, run in, and ask the nearest guy, "Donde esta el Caballero's?"... Little peruvian dude looks me square in the eye, says with a perfect Texan drawl, "You wanna know where the guys are?"
I said no, I just have to piss. Dude says, "the word for bathroom is Bano buddy, and this is a really Catholic country, so I'd suggest you get it right".
Cervasa... gotta love it.
JC- re: "El designated driver"...
This ain't Cow Town dude- no one drives here!
Speaking as a HOMOSEXUAL, I think it's great that South Africa is more advanced that 97% of countries on the face of the earth.
I've definitely added SA to my list of countries to visit!
Way to go South Africa!!!!!
