Dear Christie Blatchford

To understand the point of your latest column re Ruby Dhalla, I would have to have read it to the end. And after sentence #3 I knew that wasn't going to be possible.

And to the folks at the G&M, I can write a column people will actually read to the end for half whatever Christie charges you. Give me an email and I will send you my CV.

  1. You are right...as soon as I read about her dog, I stopped reading. Pretty dumb.

    Damn Liberal Media....

  2. I tried - didn't even make it to the 3rd sentence before I jumped to the end to see if there was a point to any of her rambling.

    Rubbish. Where in hell was the editor?

  4. Wow -- I couldn't believe that the column could be that bad.

    It was.

    It wasn't comprehensible in the least.

    I am sitting here -- 4 minutes later - still trying to figure out just what the hell she was trying to say.

    I think she really wanted to say something really shocking and vaguely racist-- but couldn't work up the nerve to spill it.

    So it just keeps walking up to the line - dancing around it - and wiggling away.

  5. I would love it if you had a column in the Globe. Blatchford has long been an idiot. When she is not grouping on Canadian soldiers in Afghanistan like a boy crazy teenager she is busy writing confusing nonsence like that article.

  6. Nice to know Blatchford has such an appreciation for dog farts. That explains a lot.

  7. Yeah, about the only thing I could really glean from that opiate-influenced mess is that Crusty's dog hates her and needs a better diet.

    It really is difficult to find decent writing in this god-damn country these days.

  8. Blatchford hasn't written a decent piece since the Bernardo trial.

    sad - cause that series was brilliant

  9. She also made one of the worst comments about Dion just after the election: "I was astonished that Stéphane Dion seemed, at one point, to seriously believe he might have a chance at winning; he must have been having the Toronto Star translated for him" - in other words, not only was he deluded, he also could not even READ English, after so many people had, similarly contemptuously, implied he could not speak it.

    I couldn't agree with you more, the majority of her publications are lame, she needs new ideas or new material, maybe she can do better writing about generic viagra or some like that.

    For the second half of 2006, Blatchford spent most of her time covering Canada's military operations in Afghanistan, so I have been reading the kamagra newspaper , I read this information in this magazine!
