Peter MacKay’s FaceBook page will not allow any “comments”. How clever, that he just allows so-called “fans” to adore him on FBook. I wanted to post the following (in the spirit of John Lennon) “Remembrance Day. What if they gave a war and no one came?” Won’t allow it!

I don’t think anybody should be surprised a politician doesn’t provide a forum that would see him publicly challenged and insulted at every turn. There’s a place to do that sort of thing and FB ain’t it.
I destroy my enemies when I make them my friends.

kay said it. I agree.
LOL, John Lennon.
For a peacenik, he sure lived high on the hog.
Guilt for being rich,
and guilt thinking that perhaps
love and peace isn’t enough
and you have to go and get shot or something.

Gotta agree with Kay on this one. Well put.
well duh. either that or he’d open the forum up and only have like 2 friends….
he’s obviously a numbers guys so there you have it.
I agree with Abe Lincoln.
Peter McKay, not so much.
Ooooops, meant to type MacKay
Kay, write this day down in your calendar!
Peter MacKay- initials are PM. Hmmmmmm…
He was OK in my book until he bent over for Stevie H over the Accord and showed his true colors. He’ll go far in politics.
He would be nowhere in politics if his father wasn’t so well connected. He’s even starting to develop the conservative jowls.
Betcha he could play a mean game of ping pong with that beak of his.
Thanks for the chuckle TTFN! Good one !
‘you’re obviously the the most creative person i’ve ever met’…eric (time and eric awesome show…great job)
My last straw with him was when he hired the ghost buster after years of shitty journalism.
Solution: Create a list of every high profile dictator , greed-meister, serial killer or undesirable you can think of. After creating matching FB profiles, join onto the subject’s “fan” list.
Can you imagine the news feed? Michael Jackson, Charles Manson, and Joseph Goebbels have all become fans of _______.
As a harmless prank, of course.
