*Low road* all in eye of beholder.

Yesterday on SunTV the ever-petulant cross-dressing amateur journalist Ezrant Levant attacked with his habitual subtlety the US president Barack Obama for putting the Keystone XL pipeline project on ice.

The *Ethical Tar Sands* promoter was soundly spanked by greater minds and defended by the usual suspects.

As I said on Twitter, the *low road* we travel - when mocking the lies and ignorance of Con jobs and other rightwing batshit crazies - does not approach the vile trash-and-slash tactic used by the Contempt party and its accolytes.

News you won't see or read about on SunMedia

Où sont les islamophobes d'antan et d'aujourd'hui?

The moozlim-haters are worker ants busy-bustling around all levels of SunMedia. And that's why not a single morsel of information to read, hear or see will be found there, regarding this powerful humanitarian news story.

A remote First Nation in northern Manitoba will be eating better this weekend, thanks to a large shipment of meat and bread that an Islamic charity is donating to the community.

The Winnipeg-based Zubaidah Tallab Foundation is sending about 200 kilograms of beef, lamb and sheep meat, along with sacks of bread, by plane to Shamattawa Manitoba, on Thursday morning.

Hussain Guisti, who heads up the foundation, said Muslims butcher an animal at this time every year and give part of it to charity. Guisti said the foundation decided to send this year's donation to Shamattawa, a First Nations community of about 1,100 located just south of Hudson Bay, in the hopes of making an impact there.

This is why I love the CBC. It doesn't suppress new stories - unlike SunMedia and SunTV which only carry infotainment that fits into its corporation's rightwing ideological framework.

On the other hand, it wouldn't surprise me if SunMedia had positive things to say about Lou Engle and his *prayer* meeting.

Grand merci to Beari8it who tweeted the link to the CBC news story.
