Harper, Tirture, Truth, and Consequences?

Dear Canadian Prime Minister,

You Bastard! In light of your morally retarded and indefensible stance to try and silence witnesses who are willing to testify in the inquiry into allegations of Canada's complicity in the torture of Afghan prisoners - I believe you should take note of this breaking story by Salon's Glen Greenwald:

British High Court rejects U.S./British cover-up of torture evidence

Sir, as one pecker-head to another, I aver it is time you reconsidered your efforts to silence those who wish to speak the truth to power. It is time you stopped trying to bury the truth under the faux guise of 'national security' and your turning of a blind eye to the systemic torture of defenseless human beings. Maybe, just maybe, your government's concerted efforts to hide the truth needs to be reassessed? Because maybe, just maybe, the rest of the world is going to start seriously questioning what Canada stands for, who we are, and what kind of government we have. And, maybe, just maybe, the world's spotlight will not be forgiving .... for as Greewald highlights: the "Court's ruling 'a devastating judgment,' ... [saw that] the 'judges roundly dismissed the foreign secretary's claims that disclosing the evidence would harm national security and threaten the UK's vital intelligence-sharing arrangements with the US.'"

This is what a usury and duplicitous FUCKER looks like!

"My dear people of the Diocese,

As Bishop of the Diocese, I have publicly apologized to those who have suffered such abuse, and to their families. I want all victims of abuse to know how terribly sorry we are, how wrong this abuse was, and how we are attempting to right those wrongs.

Money can never compensate fully, but we are trying ... most of all, compassionate. If it was your own son or daughter, your brother or sister, your mother or father who was abused, you would expect and demand nothing less. ....

Sexual abuse, indeed any abuse, is wrong. I want assure you that for many years now this Diocese has taken, and continues to take, proactive steps to avoid the repetition of any such abuse.

I would close by asking your cooperation and support, and above all your prayers, ... [so] we can move forward and keep our efforts fully focused on the central mission of Christ’s Church: to preach his Gospel to the people of our time. Now, as always, let us pray for one another.

Yours in the Lord,

Raymond J Lahey Bishop of Antigonish"

"Police seek ex-bishop facing porn charges: Prominent Nova Scotia Catholic stopped at Ottawa airport over images found on laptop"

By Neco Cockburn and Andrew Seymour, The Ottawa Citizen - September 30, 2009 11:31 PM

"Ottawa - Until last week, Raymond Lahey was the Bishop of Antigonish, Nova Scotia. Now, he is wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for his arrest on child pornography charges.

Lahey, who only three months ago oversaw a historic apology and financial settlement for sexual abuses committed by priests in his diocese, was picked up at the Ottawa airport on Sept. 15 when border security agents found images on his laptop computer. Lahey was returning from a trip to Britain at the time.

The Ottawa Police Internet Child Exploitation unit laid charges of possession and importation of child pornography and the warrant was issued last Friday."

** In this photo this abuser, this deviant, this FUCKER is standing on the steps of the church where I was baptized; and like all the other ordained hypocrites who came before him, he is clinging to the pomp and circumstance so often used by the Catholic Church to mask his sickness. One can only pray(?) that Lahey gets what his fucked Church promises to others who deign to violate their supposed sacrosanct teachings - - jail time in Hell!

More proof that there is no substitution for a good education system!

The failing US education system needs help! Need evidence? Look no further than this, this, and this.

And, if you are still not sure - watch this.




As the ever adroit Ms. Maddow demonstrates in her segment - there is an entire generation out there (we Canadians included) who did not 'git their learnin' done'. Susceptible to all sorts of balderdash, they are irrevocably lost because they are quite simply... too dumb for words!

And in today's NO SHIT! file we have...

Jesus, why did it ever take them so long to admit the truth? Most of us have known this for decades!

As reported by the Canadian Press:

"Amid conflicting internal accounts, disappearing e-mails and disastrous publicity following the death of Robert Dziekanski, a top Mountie admitted at the Taser inquiry Tuesday that the RCMP shouldn’t investigate itself. ....

RCMP Supt. Wayne Rideout, who was the third Mountie to take the stand Tuesday, denied a key part of his superior officer’s evidence and then told commissioner Thomas Braidwood that, “We are not perceived by the public to be able to investigate ourselves.

“We’re not good at this, we shouldn’t be doing this,” said Rideout.

He said he thinks “it is time” for B.C. to consider an independent body to investigate the RCMP."

NO SHIT!
