The NDP and their spin machine when it comes to who's not running

http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews/Tory-MLA-Hawranik-not-running-again-116501548.html?commentConfirmed=y#comments

Well maybe it's not the NDP - just their supporters. So far five PC MLAs have opted not to run (and four of those came from safe seats). In fact one bowed out (Derkatch) to allow Rowat run in a rural riding after new boundaries destroyed her former riding.
That's a team player. Unlike the NDP, who are stacking nomination parties to get rid of incumbents (aka Brick). So far no dogs or entire First Nations have been sold memberships yet, as has been the case by the NDP in BC and Saskatchewan (in leadership races no less).
Keep yourselves dizzy with the spin my loveable NDP posters. You can't run on your record, so you attack. I get it.

  1. If you want to know about First nation memberships, did a little deeper and find out how Hugh McFadyen won the PC leadership.

  2. Careful orange that you don't get sued... Pcs paid the price for ten years ago... Ndp though did not seem to learn that lesson.

  3. Why would I be sued for that? All I am saying is Hugh won because certain first nation votes in NDP ridings supported him. Those mail in ballots sure came in handy , they even printed a few extra thousand , just in case according to my sources. Why would you need more ballots than members ?

    ReplyDelete
  4. Hugh won with 67 per cent of the vote and 14 MLAs backing him.
    You'd better be prepared to prove such outlandish comments in court if someone ever says what you are alledging isn't true. I hope your sources are ready to go to court.
    I'd be careful what I post about politicians... be critical, yes, but also make sure what you're posting isn't gossip. your track record and predictions haven't exactly been credible of late, making me doubt anything your "sources" tell you (Selinger to retire after one term? really?)
    I guess anything to take the focus off the job the NDP are doing, I suppose.

  5. c'mon Blue.. we all know that Katz has the cops turn a blind eye to Sabino Tummillo(Winnipeg's largest drug dealer). Her sources are SOLID! I know this because I heard it from someone who knows of a person that once spoke to Ewatski who confirmed that he heard from a source that Katz wanted the police to lay off Sabino.

    Hearsay! Hearsay!

    Oh yeah... Orange.. You're still a coward for not posting my comments. I guess you deemed my last comment offensive because I asked you what was offensive about my previous comments??

    YOU ARE A LIAR, A HYPOCRITE, AND REPRESENTANT EVERY THING THAT IS WRONG WITH GOVERNMENT.

  6. Don't get your panties in a knot Mr. National Rifle Association. ARE YOU BITTER BECAUSE YOUR PARTY IS LEADERLESS ?

    ReplyDelete
  7. orange, nra is right - you said on your blog you don't screen comments, but you clearly did. I posted you better worry about being sued about stating the police are torturing people (with absolutely no proof provided whatsoever). You never posted that, but you did post some anti-police stuff.
    whatever - your blog, do what you will. but I agree urge you to consider what you post.
    In Nova Scotia, firefighters sued a poster on a newspaper site for saying disparaging comments about them in a story.
    you're setting yourself up for a world of legal trouble if you don't start censoring yourself a little more.

    ReplyDelete
  8. My monicker doesn't represent the National Rifle Association. If that were the case, I would have capitalized the letters in the acronym.

    I voted for Reagan Wolfrom in the recent provincial by-election, Katz and Steen in the civic, and will be voting for Malloway in the (potentially) upcoming federal election. Which of my "parties" is leaderless?

    I "get my panties in a knot" because I know you censor comments on your blog while professing to only censor offensive comments. Of course, you may take offense to opinions that differ from yours. I guess you would then be offended and not a liar. I would have to take back my statement at that point, although that would just make you a censor, no better than any number of tin pot dictators throughout history. If you truly work for the NDP, and are representative of those in your party, the citizens of this province are in a great deal of trouble.

    I hope the NDP is at least smart enough to make you type letters and fetch coffee, and not involve you in the affairs of running our province.

  9. Cremesicle has NEVER run a comment from me, offensive or not, and I am the original target of it's efforts.

  10. Orange Rod said...
    I don't filter comments unless they are offensive.

    -----------------------------------------------


    so that pretty much makes her a liar, eh Marty?

    ReplyDelete
  11. Hey Marty... is the Orange Rod that same girl whose complaint you read on air a couple years ago? The one with bad spelling and grammar and worked for an MLA?

    ReplyDelete
  12. Yes, she is. I posted several comments on her blog that were not offensive but pointing out her lack of knowledge of the benefits of the F-35 program. She did in fact filter those comments.

    ReplyDelete
  13. The Orange Rod filters out nearly EVERYTHING on her blog, offensive or not. In rebuttal to one of her posts, which was incorrect, I simply pointed out the NHL had no intention of expanding to 34 teams in a couple of years, and asked her to provide her sources.

    Guess what? It was deemed "offensive." Never trust anything the Orange Rod does or says.

    ReplyDelete
  14. You people and your conspiracy theories. You are all delusional. That is why you will never taste power in this province again.

    Marty I almost forgot about you. How is the Great Canadian Talk Show doing ? Oh, sorry, I forgot you are no longer on the air. I see one of your bum buddies is working for Jon Gerrard. Wish him luck, because he will be out of a job by the end of October.

    ReplyDelete
  15. It's no conspiracy theory - it's just you lying. Your political masters must have taught you that. When you say something and do something else, that's called lying.
    It hasn't been a good week for Orange - caught lying, risking a lawsuit with baseless allegations against politicians and the police, and now using the term "bum buddies" - I don't know much, but I know that's a pretty derogatory term that I'm betting no NDP MLA would ever utter. I wonder what would ever possess one of their biggest supporters to post such a hateful term?

    ReplyDelete
  16. Considering what she has said about Christians and Rural Manitobans, it does not surprise me one bit.

    ReplyDelete
  17. The spin machine is spinning blue and orange it would seem.

    Since we have lists of who is not running, do we have any lists of who is running for what Parties? (orange, blue or red??)

    ReplyDelete
  18. right on, another colour of rod...
    No official list... election is still months away. but if you're a news junkie, you know who's staying and who's going.
    and aparently Selinger plans to retire after just one term as premier - or so Orange says

    ReplyDelete
  19. When did Orange Rod turn into a "girl"? Everyone has said that Orange was a certain dyed in the wool tory that got charged with certain crimes and went over to the NDP after that...

    ReplyDelete
  20. All I know is what I read on the free press comments and her blog... she's basically kind of hinted she is a woman... other bloggers who have been at this longer might have specific knowledge... in fact in an earlier post I think someone posts something she said as proof.
    never heard of her as being a former Tory - sorry, that's new to me.
    I actually like Orange - I just think she (or he) goes overboard sometimes... and in fact has said some stuff that could get her sued.
    Be critical, but respectful I always say. nothing wrong with being partisan - I don't think the NDP are evil, they're just not a party I care to support

  21. I would slit my wrists before going blue. This girl is orange and proud !

  23. Well I decided to get in on the Rod colour craze that seems to be sweeping this city. Check it out anytime!

  25. I don't care who anyone is... I just like the exchange of ideas and opinions

  26. Why don't you print my comments Cremesicle?

    Why did you dedicate a blog specifically to attacking me and misrepresenting me but won;t print my responses. Why is that? Why are you afraid of the truth?

    Well, at least Margo loves you too.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Martin , take off your blinkers little boy , I said Margo should be fired for lying to the national post. Since when did you comment on the OR blog ?

    ReplyDelete
  28. Orange you have been repeatedly exposed as a liar - many of the posters on here, myself included, have seen their posts not put up on your site. but hey, someone draws a silly pic with my name on it and it goes right up.
    hardcore NDPers like you, Oakley, Hi There, show the same sort of attitude - hardcore attack anyone with a differing opinion, try to change the channel rather than defend the indefensible
    Frankly, I beleive Marty before you Orange - you've been exposed a liar several times over

    ReplyDelete
  29. I only delete comments that are offensive. Everything else is posted.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Orange, what do you consider offensive? posts that ask you questions?
    we know that insults don't offend you - well, insults directed at me anyway
    Orange you're a liar, and not a very good one at that

    ReplyDelete
  31. Since when? Puh-lease. I have tried any number of times to correct your misinformation. You are a liar.

    ReplyDelete
  32. That's complete BS. Why even bother trying to dispute it?

    ReplyDelete
  33. FYI, some individual has created a blog impersonating the Blue Rod. They must be intimidated of you.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Marty Gold is the biggest liar out there. Want some proof ? There is lots of it.
    http://blackrod.blogspot.com/2008/03/winnipeg-free-press-tries-to-stuff.html

    Look how he posts , "Puh-lease". The black rod is the only person on earth who said please in that way.

    When he was on the air at RRC collecting money from competing educational enterprises , his topics always covered the very same items the "Black Rod" covered at the exact same time. And of course , he never disagreed with the Black Rod . Marty is the worst liar we have ever seen.

    What do I consider offensive ? Stupid comments, comments that don't make any sense, insults to me or my party and comments that have false information. Those are offensive to me.

    ReplyDelete
  35. So when someone asks you to provide a source as to where you learned that the NHL is "expanding" by 4 teams for the 2013-14 season, you consider that offensive?

    ReplyDelete
  36. Orange and her flexible morals. Insults at me are ok? Guess you learned that from your political masters. Your a liar and hypocrite.
    And proof of the kind of people who make up the ndp?
    Hey orange you get sued yet for slandering rhe police? Expect that any day now.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I know one thing. Orange Rod and Brian Oakley have managed to turn me off the NDP. I'm still undecided, but my vote will definitely not goto any NDP member after reading the hate filled garbage on their blogs.

    ReplyDelete
  38. @Orange re blackrod/Marty

    Dont forget the inane usage of bolding as proof.

    If they are not the same person they certainly have the same copy editor.

    ReplyDelete
  39. The Orange Rod can't handle different opinions, He/she/it panders and we all take the bait. She's nothing but a troll. I truly don't think anyone can be as retarded as it/she/he is without doing it on purpose.

    Hey Orange, do the MLA's in your party actually support your blog?

    ReplyDelete
  40. @nra.

    "Hey Orange, do the MLA's in your party actually support your blog? "

    I'll answer the question...

    Of course the PCs support the blog. It makes NDPers lok crazy.

    ReplyDelete
  41. can't disagree with that one Whitey. If the PC's are doing that, I hope they get exposed and eviscerated. No need for that type of bull.

    ReplyDelete
  42. LOL well. It was said in jest.. but you get the point right?

    ReplyDelete
  43. So maybe I am doing this blog to expose the PC party as corrupt ( which they are ) or I am trying to make the NDP look bad. More tory conspiracy theories.
    Marty , what say you about the Black Rod ? You once said he was coming on your show, so you know who the Black Rod is. Tell us , now. You can't because you are the Black Rod !

    ReplyDelete
  44. Don't think the big Orange Machine is any different, because it ain't.

    Hydra House
    Crocus
    Election rebate scandal
    Seven Oaks School Division Land Development

    This is off the top of my head, and doesn't take into account the general ineptitude of our elected "officials" and their appointed minions.

    ReplyDelete
  45. I noticed the Orange rod published another article about the NHL return to Winnipeg. I challenged the Orange Rod to reveal her source. Will she post my comment, or continue with the lies she spreads ("I only remove posts that are highly offensive"). I still await her reply to Orange's claim that the NHL was expanding by 4 teams in 2013.

    ReplyDelete
  46. i also asked about the expansion... we'll see what she puts up

    ReplyDelete
  47. Well, it's been over 48 hours since I politely asked Orange for a source relating to her "March 7 deadline" blog post. Just like the "NHL expanding to 34 teams in 2013, she not only refuses to elaborate on the post, but does not publish the comments.

    This is proof that Orange Rod lies about not censoring comments. She really has no idea what she is talking about.

    ReplyDelete
  48. She clearly does not have a sniff. Half of what she says is BS.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Also her post claims Glendale was given a March 7 deadline. That's obviously not true since today's March 9.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Notice how Bettman and co. flew into Phoenix on March 8th the day after ? The bonds didn't sell by the 7th, and the next day he was doing damage control. The deal is dead. Just wait for a few months before determining if I am right or wrong about NHL expansion. What would be my motive for making this stuff up ? My source is good. We can agree to disagree about comments. If I find them offensive, I don't post them. Simple.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Why didn't you reply to this? Why did you not post my further rebuttals to these comments in your "Harper is the new Mulroney" post?

    Orange Rod said...

    Why do we even need fighter Jets ? These machines are for killing people, that is it.

    Riverman said...

    Either you are 12 years old or have yet to have a lesson in history. Canada needs an Air Force, without aggressor aircraft the "force" is gone from air force. Also, go and have a look at the 135,000 square foot building on Ellice Avenue that is being built right now and will soon provide hundreds of skilled, hi-tech jobs, all because of the F-35 purchase.

    Orange Rod said...

    Of Course we need an Air Force, but we don't need these aircraft. Also the jobs on Ellice ave mostly fix engines for commercial aircraft and the military component is not that big.

    And that's how it ended. Everything she said is completely false and my attempts to rebut were not posted. The enormous building being erected is in FACT for the F-35 program. Bristol Aerospace is not even in the business of fixing aircraft engines.

    So is this woman a liar or just an idiot? If you just look at the crap she spews, you would think she is only a harmless idiot. But when she ignorantly posts untrue statements and censors corrections to those statements, the word liar certainly comes to mind.

    ReplyDelete
  52. No idea about your motives Orange. None whatsoever. But you're been proven to be a liar several times over by posters noting you won't post their thoughts, which they've repeated here and are clearly not offensive (unless you're a hardcore NDPer apparently)
