I love when the left fringe gives me all the ammo I need to feed them their own feet...

It's amazing how they so carelessly and idiotically made this about free speech, when they realised that wouldn't work...they went on the attack against the Conservatives, then that backfired because it was a Liberal written law. Then they went on to the law is stupid...yadda yadda yadda...

But hey, why let go of something stupid, their darling Galloway says it's about free speech, so let all run with that a little more...

Well lookie what I found. Apparently Galloway doesn't support free speech either...

Would you not think that in all of the media hysteria over Canada's barring of British MP George Galloway, a relevant fact is that Galloway led a campaign to bar uber-right-wing French politician Jean-Marie Le Pen from the U.K. in 2004?
Galloway argued, without success, that for the British government to allow in Le Pen would be "siding with the neo-Nazi far-right against multicultural Britain."
He added: "Le Pen should not be allowed to set foot onto British soil at any time."

Funny that. He wanted Le Pen banned for a mere opinion. Not actual acts of support for terrorists.

Well, well, well, what a mangled web of superior hypocrisy. Not surprised though, the left has felt that freedom of speech should only apply to them for years.

Anyone that champions this clown, on any level and for any reason, is as much of an asshat as he is.

Is Le Pen coming to Canada? I have a problem with the guy's racist viewpoints, but I say let him come to Canada and talk. I expect only a few people will listen to what he has to say.

Yep. Free speech.

As long as you agree with me, you should be free to say what you please.

Thanks Bear....GREAT link!

I would think that the government does not have a moral right to disallow any person to Canada on a whim, but rather according to certain rules of justice.

You may consider our laws "a whim". I doubt most other Canadians would.

Wow! That's all you have to say after your darling gets caught looking like a right royal hypocritical clown?

Ya, I guess that would be all you would say. It's about the same when your hero's Hamas, or the Hezbollah kill Israeli's...thanx for being amazingly consistent with your weak knee'd approach.

BTW...

I have no problem with Le Pen coming to Canada either. I can't find a single instance where she's financially supported terrorist. Her views are not a concern of mine. Hell, I don't even know them. Just like I didn't know Galloway's until I researched him a little. I'ld say let him in too, but unfortunately, he is ineligible to enter Canada because of those pesky Draconian Liberal laws...;-)
Yep. Free speech.

Thanx Colpy...from you, that means a lot.

The only real "whims" in this event, are the opinions and arguments put forth by the leftard asshats supporting this assclown.

I support Galloway and Le Pen both coming to Canada. I agree with most of what Galloway says and almost nothing of what Le Pen says.

Galloway tends to shoot from the hip. Sometimes he misses the mark, but usually he hits a bull's eyes. He's stand against Le Pen missed the mark.

BTW, I don't support Hamas or their viewpoint. I have observed that they keep their word. Most appear to be intolerant religious zealots. On the flip side they appear to be honest and trustworthy. I have posted support for Palestinians to democratically elect their leaders without outside interference. I have noted that Hamas is the only government with a democratic mandate in Palestine. But no I have never expressed support for Hamas's religious intolerance or violent resistance.

FYI: My heros are M.K. Ghandi and Martin Luther King Jr.

But eao, where is your out rage of Galloway wanting to ban someone from the UK? Over an opinion no less. Not a vcriminal act under Canadian law. That's a violation of free speech!!! According to you. So where is the hew and cry?

Oh ya, as it is with your terrorist hero's, false observance and insincere acknowledgment.

Riiiiiight, it just missed the mark...ya, kind of like Israeli ordnance when they miss the mark right?

I don't see what the problem is. Hitler is my hero...I mean I have issues with the whole genocide and world war thing but he was a snappy dresser and you just gotta love the stache.

Not to mention, he could really cut a rug.

The Canucklehead government wouldn't allow Galloway but did allow the world's # 1 terrorist within its borders:





Oh well, at least he got booed by the people and you know how that hurts his fragile ego.

That's right.

We let in some, not others.

As is our right.

I think the American Gov't is made up of a bunch of idiots because you guys let Galloway in.......

but I'm too polite to say so in public...........

oh:confused5:

''I think the American Gov't is made up of a bunch of idiots because you guys let Galloway in.......

LOL! The government allowed Galloway in because Senator Norm Coleman thought he could indict him for some form of war profiteering. Galloway was audited by the British government and had two trials which proved all such charges were unfounded and he was held innocent all three times.

Galloway got so fired up that he called Coleman ''lick spittle'' and the SOB was shocked because he never heard of those words before!

Coleman, like so many others of the far right, is nothing more than an ass kissing moron who, like those who think like him, well deserved the epithets.

Galloway's hard hitting truth:

YouTube - George Galloway vs. U.S Senate (5/17/05)



That's why the Canucklehead government doesn't want him within your borders.
I got to 45 seconds before I was overwhelmed by the BS.

A MILLION Iraqis died because of the sanctions......

Yeah right,

while Saddam built 20 some odd palaces.

with no problem getting whatever he needed. despite the sanctions. despite the laughable "oil for food" UN farce number 8,987,609 A.

But despite Saddam proving anything you could possibly want he could get into Iraq.....despite that.......the mostly imaginary "deaths" are the fault of the USA and other coalition members.

Man, that is a stretch, now isn't it?

Any deaths in Iraq between 1992 and 2002 can be attributed to one man,
Galloway's hero of the day,
the mother of all butchers,
saddam Hussein.

At least try to maintain some contact with reality.

Galloway may very well be a hypocrite but the key here is....Did Britain listen to the lunatics trying to prevent entry to an individual because of his beliefs or where they mature enough to ignore the noise and politics?:lol:

Perhaps you should take the time to learn the facts before you make incredibly stupid statements that make you look even sillier than you already do. The "Canucklehead" government has a law that people that give money to terrorist organizations are not allowed into the country. That is why your hero has been told to run along. His opinions on the Iraq war are not that different from many others and would not keep him out of the country. The "Canucklehead" government has no official position on this nutter. It was some bureaucrat that made the decision, and the right decision at that.

I must say that I'm so impressed with the Bush regime in that they allowed this guy in to spout his opinions. One would have thought, the way all the lefties talked, that Dubya would have had him arrested and sent to Gitmo.

As I have said repeatedly, I don't give a rat's ass whether he voices his opinions or not.......if he were in the country I would defend his right to speak. Were he a Canadian, I would not quietly see him censored.......nor would I see him censored as a Briton.

Censorship is NOT the issue here. Although pointing out Galloway hypocrisy on the subject was fitting, it is not the issue either.

I have two points:

1. Canada has the RIGHT to keep out any person not born here for any reason, or for NO reason......at the whim of the bureaucrat who processes an entry request.

2. Galloway provides aid and CASH to Hamas ($45,000 recently, according to today's Globe and Mail) That makes him a supporter of a recognized, listed terrorist organization, which is illegal under Canadian law. IF we are to apply the law fairly, he MUST be arrested when he enters the country, don't you think?

Or do you think MPs deserve preferential treatment under the law?

It is best to keep him out.

That may well be true but anybody who believes that it was a bureaucrat that made the decision to keep Galloway out is being disingenuous. Denying entry to a British MP would require clearance from a "high" government official.

2. Galloway provides aid and CASH to Hamas ($45,000 recently, according to today's Globe and Mail) That makes him a supporter of a recognized, listed terrorist organization, which is illegal under Canadian law. IF we are to apply the law fairly, he MUST be arrested when he enters the country, don't you think?

Without referring to the law, I'm not sure an arrest is warranted, but I will concede that providing cash to an official Hamas representative would appear to (at least) provide a legal basis to deny him entry to Canada.

Or do you think MPs deserve preferential treatment under the law?

No

It is best to keep him out.

If the law has clearly been broken then we have no choice. Galloway is making noises about appealing this. If he does, the outcome will be interesting to say the least.


and

The same Saddam Hussein that the US supported for many, many years?;-)

Hamas is the elected government of the Palestinians for God's sake. I thought we wanted to promote democracy..:roll: It is best that we wake up and stop swallowing American/Israeli propaganda. Everyone supported the election but now the Israelis don't like the results. Hamas provides aid to people who's homes have been bulldozed or blown up by the wonderful Israelis with their American weapons. Maybe if the Americans applied some conditions to their multi- billion dollar annual aid to Israel, we might start to see an end to the conflict in this area.

It seems clear to me that Canada has been told not to let Galloway in the country.

By whom??????

He was in the USA last week.

BTW, Hamas won an election once.....then it took complete control of Gaza by murdering its political opponents. It refuses to recognize Israel. It continually attacks Israel, and in doing so aims its weapons at civilians.....in fact, the Globe and Mail today had an article about Israel destroying 17 truckloads of Iranian weapons bound for Hamas......in Sudan.

To call the gov't in Gaza "democratic" is....disingenuous.

I don't need any propaganda to tell me what is obvious.....Hamas is an organization of Islamo-fascist loonies, armed, supported and instructed by the whacko religious leaders of Iran, who maintain power in Gaza by murdering any opposition, who aim their weapons at civilians, and who would happily butcher every Jew on earth, given the opportunity.

Compared to Israel.....a modern western democracy in which the Arab population votes, has democratic representation, and enjoys the protection of the Israeli justice system against the worst instincts of radical Zionists.

I think the choice is clear.
