Our work here is done

Rodney is gone now.
Jim Nunn is gone too.
Gone also are former Tory cabinet ministers:
Ron Chisholm, Barry Barnet,  Judy Streatch, Len Goucher,  Mark Parent, David Morse, Carolyn Bolivar-Getson, Pat Dunn, and Bill Dooks. And of course Ex-Tory Ernie Fage.
The Tories are gone. And soon Rodney will resign as leader and hopefully from politics.
An era is over.
And [...]

Everyone was waiting for Bill Clinton, when Rodney’s name is called

The show is already an hour late. We’ve already been treated to the Canadian Tenors.
We’re waiting. It’s hot. It’s crowded.
And finally: the announcement.
Ladies and gentlement please welcome: … Rodney MacDonald.
The disappointment was palpable. Rodney? We wanted Bill Clinton.
The applaused couldn’t have been more muted.
Rodney’s introduction was cardboard, uninspiring and not very charming.
Mercifully, Rodney kept it [...]

Yawn! Oh, sorry, we’re just waking up

Last thing we remember we were sitting down to watch the NS election leaders debate on TV last night.
Then we fell asleep or into a coma or something.
You’d think with all planning that goes into these things they could come up with something interesting, something to capture the imaginations of Nova Scotians.
Or at least something [...]

Bye Bye Rodney

Check out the new poll results
Turns out Nova Scotians aren’t as stupid as you had them, Rodney.
Turns out that people don’t like it when you flip flop and bounce on trampolines.
Turns out that your campaign team has completely missed the boat.
Turns out that your government is probably going down on June 9th.

Poor Rodney just set himself on fire again

We’re starting to wonder if Rodney MacDonald isn’t doing this on purpose because he wants a career change.
Maybe it’s not just the Tory backroom boys that want him out. Maybe Rodney is sabotaging himself.
Just last week he was striding around telling everyone he couldn’t possibly free up monies for infrastructure work. He was trying to [...]

Pot. Kettle. Black. Rodney MacDonald

Behold the words of Rodney MacDonald:
“Instead of dealing with the effects of the recession head-on, the NDP has chosen to ignore it. There is no plan for helping Nova Scotians weather it.”
Ha.
Hahahaahahahahahahaha. Nice one, Rodney.
This is the premier who didn’t get around to doing his budget until the last minute – the only premier in [...]

Rodney’s bounce flops

The Tory backroom boys are at it again – trying to make Rodney MacDonald look like a buffoon.
And they’ve really done him today.
On the front page of the paper today, he’s shown bouncing on a trampoline like a six-year old.
Poor Rodney. He doesn’t even realize what they’re doing to him.
It would be different if this [...]

Now they are shovelling the dirt over poor Rodney

Clearly, the backroom boys want Rodney out.
Otherwise they wouldn’t allow him to shoot himself so magnificently in the foot.
This morning he’s all over the media contradicts his own senior cabinet ministers – including Finance Minister Jamie Muir – on the small matter of the “balanced” budget he presented.
Rodney says it’s balanced.
Well the opposition didn’t buy [...]

Rodo McDodo finally falls

He dug the hole for himself.
And he dug it deep.
Then he fell into that hole.
Let’s see. What did Rodney do to cause this fall:
Spending money allocated by law to the $12B debt.
Delaying the budget in the middle of the worse economic crisis since the 30s.
Cabinet ministers smashing up cars after an evening at the bar.
Cabinet [...]

Back room boys let Rodney MacDonald hang himself

Rodney MacDonald is a desperate man who has run out of ideas and is blaming the opposition for his failings.
He’s spend money legally required to go on Nova Scotia’s gargantuan debt and now he’s trying to change the law after the fact so he won’t appear to be breaking the law.
That’s like engaging in unsportsmanlike [...]
