You know, every now and again, I meet a conservative individual who is an avowed racist, and that’s too bad. But leftism is racism. Leftism, which sees people as victim groups rather than individuals, which sets us one against another according to the color of our skins rather than distinguishing us by the contents of our characters, which is so eager to manipulate our guilts and grievances in order to form bases of support for an ever-expanding state, has derailed the natural American movement—the natural human movement—toward assimilation and unity and replaced it with ghettoizing multi-culturalism and infantilizing “diversity.”

It seems the president is trying to play both sides of this issue. On the one hand, he wants to continue to stoke the populist outrage set ablaze by the lavish bonuses; on the other hand, he is trying to help the CEOs keep those same lavish bonuses.

While defending the staggering increase in Ontario’s public sector payroll:

Our restaurants, our small businesses depend on those public-sector salaries.

Dwight Duncan, Ontario Finance Minister

Does anyone else see the lunacy in this statement? The idea that civil service jobs and salaries should be maintained at a high level to support local economies? Whatever happened to the quaint idea of justifying employment because something needs to be done? I guess that’s not how the Ontario Liberals run things.
