Charles Krauthammer, one of the smartest (and best dressed) men in America chimes in on the Chevy Volt. “The only people who are going to buy it are going to be very rich people who are going to park it outside their townhouse for ostentatious show of how virtuous they are while they drive around [...]
White House reports it borrows 37 cents of every dollar it spends. (Note, I first heard the number 41 cents and after a few searches this is the smallest number I could find.) The term OfficiallyScrewed doesn’t do this one justice. Nor would a write up.
$5M of our money to keep Eco Fee Ass Co. going. Why is everyone celebrating? There was NO win for taxpayers yesterday when the Liberals put a 3 month moratorium on the new Eco Fee. A fee that turns out to be the biggest tax grab in our provincial history which is a pretty [...]

If you are a conservative gathering to protest higher taxes you are a tea bagger. If you are a leftist gathering to shout down free speech, you are a hero. If you are Stephen Colbert, hyperbole is comedy. If you are Ann Coulter, hyperbole is a crime. What bothers me most about the whole Ann [...]
The City of Ottawa has become a volleyball in the battle between Capitalists and Socialists over the Lansdowne Live proposal. The left wing councilors have started lining up against the PPP put forward and they have been backed by Dippers Paul Dewar and past NDP leader Ed Broadbent.
