Canada vs Sweden for Men's 2014 Olympic Gold Medal



Tomorrow Canadians across this great land of ours will gather around the electronic hearth to watch the Men's Gold Medal final of the 2014 Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia.

In Vancouver, patriotic souls will rise at around 3:45 am (or stay up all Saturday night).

In 2010 the Gold Medal game was the most watch event in Canadian television history.

For Canadians there is nothing… and we mean nothing… which captures the collective imagination like a Canadian team playing at the pinnacle of the sport.

Tomorrow our boys will face off against a tough and worthy opponent.  Our hearts and hopes are with them.

Tonight we recall the national celebration, the national euphoria, of our overtime victory at the 2010 Olympic Games.

May we be blessed again in the morn.

Ron Paul launches online petition for clemency for Edward Snowden



Edward Snowden shocked the world when he exposed the NSA’s illegal and abusive spying program. Instead of applauding him for his bravery and patriotism, the U.S. government labels Snowden a traitor.

Former Congressman Ron Paul has launched a petition to attempt to garner clemency for NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden.

Paul calls on supporters to sign the petition in an attempt to bring Snowden home to the US safely before his temporary visa in Russia expires in July. Join Ron Paul in demanding that Edward Snowden IS granted clemency.

By signing this petition, Paul notes on his Channel's website, "you are telling the US government that Mr. Snowden deserves the right to come home without the fear of persecution or imprisonment."
