I'M SURPRISED.

I am surprised we are not getting more noise and genuine editorial from the USA on the Jian Ghomeshi Mesh. After all he was heard on over 150 American radio stations. I'm also surprised he has not cried out and said something, ( sorry all) but my friend Ed says psychopaths do not have remorse and he might have something there. Even if he did shout out remorse he just might be acting out.

Charles Adler a Calgary based radio talker and Sun news commentator. and CBC's Rex Murphy had the best, insightful and wise responses to Jian's actions. Mr Adler who was born and raised in Montreal around the same time I was,(1950's) always seemed to me to be a tad strident but then again I never really gave his work time and consideration until this week when John Doyle, the Globe And Mail TV columnist and a writer I admire, gave a shout out to Charles as an observer who gets the pulse of politics in Canada.

The truth about Jian, I think  is, he is a bully. Probably he came late to that status as he does not strike me as having been a school yard bully but indeed may have been bullied himself as a youth and learned the craft from that experience.

I have not written anything for over two weeks because I couldn't. The two fine Soldiers here in Canada being killed. so cowardly. Obama losing the mid terms, The Justin Trudeau playing politics with the accusations that two of the Liberal MP's were sexually abusive to two female  NDP MP's. The women did not want the complaints to be made public but what did they think would happen. One of the women sat down at a chance meeting with the Liberal Leader, Mr Trudeau at one of the soldier memorials and tells him what happened to her earlier this year. And, she thinks  he was not going to game this horrible story in his favor by looking, the tough on abuse guy, to all female voters.? So he goes public and suspends his two MP's
Her mistake was misreading Trudeau. This lad is on a mission from Pierre to prove he's as good as dad and don't get in his way.
I am also surprised that Pierre Trudeau did not insist his sons be scholarly, as he was himself and he let them off with that. Neither of the three boys went to post grad school.Knowing your way around the media and being able to give a descent speech does not a wise leader make. To make up for that one needs to be very well read and have lived a few more years than 42. It's how we get mediocre leaders as I predict Justin Trudeau will be. If he becomes PM, the magic of the office will mask some of that for a while.

Heather Comway, a CBC V.P. of English Services says publicly today that Jian is 'egomaniacal and tyrannical.' And that he lied to his bosses about his sex life when it became a source of serious accusations and was brought to their attention. She said,  management needs to find out what should or could have been done differently.
 I say; someone should have taken Jian by the scruff of his shirt and said,' look here you little shit. I been watching you and how you are fucking up the people who work for this program because you think you are bigger and more important than anyone else and if you don't smarten up, I'm gonna expose you and then I'm gonna fire you. Consider yourself warned.
