We have seen a lot of bullshit in our time and even participated in some of it but still we have to call bullshit on the whole faux May day Chamberlain fiasco.
Our opinion: all Sound and furry signifying exactly nothing. If May is guilty of anything, it is using a worn out troupe of the right to go after the Cons.
And all this sanctimonious horseshit coming out of the Cons about “how dare blah did di blah blah.” “Bugger off” we say. We had all heard a steady beat coming from the Con’s war drum over Afghanistan and Iraq: all of our enemies were at one point likened to Hitler and those that disagreed were cast as nouveau Chamberlains.
The Canadian Jewish Congress, Oy Vey, where were they back then? Back then of course it suited their foreign policy agenda to use such crass parallels.
Maybe we could all agree that for the benefit of public discourse and respect for the dead we should all stop whoring the Holocaust and its associated cast of characters for present political gain.
We are not holding our breath.

Can you give us an example of the CJC using what you call “crass parallels”.
And when referring to the CJC was there really a need to use “oy vay”? Pretty crass yourself.

Where was the outrage at comparing Sadam to Hitler? Which was standard fair by the beilicose within the con ranks.

Again the conflation between the CJC and neocons. Bernie Farber a neocon? Please!
