A Post For a Thursday

Quickly now....


If you can, please help BCF out. Thanking you in advance.

Bill C377 now goes to the Senate: 

A backbench Conservative MP is satisfied his private member's bill forcing union leaders to disclose salaries and how much is spent on political action is on solid legal ground.

Russ Hiebert's public disclosure bill narrowly passed in the Commons and now sits in the Senate where labour groups will refocus lobby efforts to kill it - a tall order considering the Tory majority in the upper chamber.

Bill C-377 - an amendment to the Income Tax Act - requires union executives to disclose salaries over $100,000, bonuses and the amount spent on political activities, among other things.

"All it does is shine a light on where it (dues) goes," Hiebert said, pointing to other countries, including the U.S., Australia and the United Kingdom, that have similar laws.

There are Coptic churches that could use rebuilding.


Even Democrats don't like Obamacare:

Many powerful Democrats, even some of the most liberal among them, are supporting what amounts to a dismantling of President Obama’s signature health care law. 

Using “Republican” language to make their case, these Democrats are attempting to repeal some of the funding mechanisms as well as the cost-containment measures that were purportedly inherent in the law.

 
Susan Rice, hounded for her role in the Benghazi cover-up, has withdrawn her name for the consideration of Secretary of State:

UN Ambassador Susan Rice, who disgraced herself after appearing on five morning shows on the Sunday after the Benghazi terrorist attacks and proclaiming that the attacks were nothing more than a spontaneous protest over a YouTube video gone wrong, has now withdrawn her name from consideration for a potential post as Secretary of State. President Obama had stated that he was considering her for the post.

Today, she told NBC News that she was dropping out. She wrote a letter to President Obama on the subject: “If nominated, I am now convinced that the confirmation process would be lengthy, disruptive and costly – to you and to our most pressing national and international priorities. That trade-off is simply not worth it to our country...Therefore, I respectfully request that you no longer consider my candidacy at this time.”

I hope she remembers who had a knife in her back.

Here is a case against this organised religion.
