Fuschi’s Canadian Forum

The good news is I survived to bury 2009. The bad news is, many of the things it broke are still broken.

I will be flying soon and by the time I arrive at my rest destination, I will need it. Because the world is populated by a percentage of nuts, we will all be treated like nuts. Airport security checkpoints work much like our gun registry. Enormous resources are squandered to ensure that noone with two arms and two legs is overlooked as a potential bomber. Meanwhile, the obvious identifying traits of bomber nutcases as revealed to us by experience, are ignored. Also ignored are all the telescoped words and actions of the nutcase (as happened at Ft. Hood), and warnings by third parties (as happened with Abdulmutallab). First it was belts, now be ready to remove your underwear. 

I was as disappointed by Obama’s victory as I am whenever liberals win. However, I was ready to give him a chance, on the hope that a man who was so instantly deified by the worlds gullible, did indeed have the power to produce some good. It is clear now, that no such thing will happen. He is a smooth-talking amateur, and when the world sees that he cannot walk on water, America’s problems will multiply. All of his good words will not diminish the damage done by typical liberal spending policies. Some delusionsional ideas - like the notion that government healthcare intrusion will lower costs!!!???- will quickly meet the brick wall. Expect the dollar to drop to new lows, as America’s creditors start to get nervous, and interest rates to go up. Another market crackup looks likely when the rates rise.

The global warming lunacy demonstrates to modern western society, why radical Islam is a disease which anyone can catch. Not because the warming crowd is ready to start strapping on bombs (at least not yet), but because the mental sickness which adheres one to fanatical causes based on delusional foundations, can inflict any of us. A dozen prominent people - Gore, Suzuki et al - can precipitate a stampede of lemmings to the economic precipice, on the flimsiest basis. World leaders, whose global fervour is suddenly doused by the climategate revelations, continue on to the great climate koolaid quaff, as though nothing has happened. There, they parade naked in front of the world, suspicious that someone can see they have no clothes, and yet afraid to be the first to break the spell which hides them. We may yet have clear evidence that this is all a fraud, but only economic pain will force our naked politicians to put on some clothes.

Let me end my prognostications with a well deserved word about the McGuinty government. Shit!!… There, I feel better. McGuinty will go down in history as the biggest meddler, and most inept bungler Ontario has ever seen. Unfortunately for us, all that he has broken will most certainly stay broken for quite a while. In fact, the HST is not fact yet, so we have yet to reach bottom. Harper’s government (which I still support in spite of the fact that my comments to them about the HST, did not even merit a form letter) is complicit in this disaster. They have set the wheels in motion, left us to the mercy of McGuinty’s tax marauding, and gone and hid under the bed. Not even a word of common sense or advice by which to mitigate the inevitable damage. They deserve to lose Ontario support over this. McGuinty will certainly meet his Waterloo, and not a minute too soon. Don’t expect him to do anything new with the fresh tax windfall. He will continue to buy public sector support (full-day kindergarten) just as he has throughout the six year decline over which he has presided.
