Protest
A Halliburton protestor claims to have been assaulted by Protest Warriors and American talk radio replies with the ridicule such a charge deserves. We have nothing like this in Canada. Time for that internet radio idea...

The radio is a good idea. I am inspired by my former co-worker Steve: http://www.actsofvolition.com/archives/actsofvolition/. It would be interesting to move beyond his music review into more of a commentary format but could it be that pre-determining that the focus would be on rightism (whether Tory, neo-con and libertarian) as suggested by Polspy could be wrong? The medium of the internet clearly allows for selection by the listener. Why not have a range of opinion to allow for that choice to be made. Win on the debate not the format.

I believe the PolSpy idea is intended to provide a samizdat opposition to the uniformity of elite opinion as presented by the CBC, Globe and Mail, etc. and so forth. But in principle I am entirely in favour of wider expression of political opinion through internet radio...
