And people wonder why I would’ve supported a monkey over Furious George in the mayoralty
The beast awakens in France
I, meanwhile, will predict silence from minimizers/legitimizers on the Right – those who actively and regularly minimize neo-Naziism, claiming their numbers are too small to worry society, as well as those who legitimize Naziism by defending their “free speech” rights.

The fog of Toronto
Tweeted this foggy morn by Sun man Don Peat. Wonderful.
The fog comes on little cat feet.
It sits looking over harbor and city on silent haunches and then moves on.

In today’s Sun: that ad will work
The ads are pretty good, as these things go. They cite unhelpful things about Rae’s record as the NDP premier of Ontario, and they end it with the obvious tagline: “He couldn’t run a province. He can’t run Canada.”
That’s the main criticism that can be made of Bob Rae, of course, and you’re going to be hearing a lot of it in the months ahead. Under his watch, Ontario became an economic basket case — unemployment and welfare rates way up, growth and investment way down.
The purpose of attack ads is to surface feelings voters already have about a politician. Rae, Canadians suspect, makes wildly spending drunken sailors look like paragons of fiscal probity.
The Con ads will remind voters about Rae’s record and voters will vote accordingly.

Define or be defined, ad nauseum
Said they were gonna do it, now they’re doin’ it.
Say it again: Rae’s record can’t be erased. It’s a disaster. If the Grits go into 2015 with him as the leader, and without an arrangement with the NDP, turn out the fucking lights.
Define or be defined. It ain’t something.
It’s everything.
