RIP Louis Riel
Will you watch?
No.
Man, this is just sick. Please do not watch “If I Did It, Here’s How It Happened” or enrich that scumbag by buying his book. Please.
Back then O.J. denied everything. Now, I guess, he’ll tell us how he terrified her, beat her, sliced her until rivulets of blood streamed past the bougainvillea outside their Brentwood home. We’ll tune in. Then he, Fox, Regan, and all those advertisers will cash in on the blood of the woman who saw it all coming.
Being George's poodle isn't working out too well for Tony: Sympathetic Labour Pains: Tony Blair's Post-Election Panic Attack
But the turning of the water was no miracle, no divine judgment on the leader whose fateful partnership with George W. Bush is producing - week after week, month after month, year after year - fresh cause for future mourning. The color came from the thousands of fake poppies tossed into the fountain in what The Observer called "a spontaneous act of remembrance": an offering of the ubiquitous charity emblems worn by most of the population in the week leading up to the memorials.
In any case, Tony Blair never saw the vision of blood in the Square; he was in Hyde Park, with the Queen and other worthies, conducting formal ceremonies where no free action or unscripted word from the public was allowed to intrude. These offices of the dead were a fitting end to a week which saw Blair and his ministers launch a massive new fearmongering campaign, promising a "generation" of terror, war and tyrannical security measures in a "long and deep struggle" against his own nation's Muslim minority.
Molly bids farewell to Rumsfeld.
And the beybey Jebus smiles.

We have a huge disturbing statue of the alleged crazyman Riel on the Legislative grounds. In many quarters of the Colonies he has yet to be completely absolved of his rebellion and in others he is a hero....I have watched a few documentaries on him..the Metis and the Scots had a complicated arrangement back then...and nobody cares about Canadian History in Canada.
Forget if the glove does not fit you must acquit...it should be if the shoe fits, wear it!
WTF? HE DID IT!
Only in America...I thought that he used up all of his luck when they found the 12 biggest dumbasses in California to be on his jury? Obviously I was wrong.
Tony Blair should pay everyone in Britain enough money to go and see the movie The Queen...he comes across as the anti-Rove..a charming well intentioned man of the people.
Damn blogger... I posted a response earlier but it's gone.
I've seen pictures of Riel's statue - I don't get modern art, I'm afraid. "One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter".
I hope the families of Simpson's victims sue him for whatever he makes from the book and interview. He already owes them 33 million which he has no intention of paying.
I think Tony might end up living in Crawford once he finally leaves office. I'm sure his buddy Bush will give him diplomatic immunity.
