What a sad lot we have to choose from.

What an idiot, anybody with half a clue knows that the entire party system is designed to drive wedges between Canadians.

Take a walk on the left side and you see non-thinking hyper-partisans talking about the evil heartless CONservatives, wander over to the other side of the fence and there’s another bunch of non-thinking hyper-partisans decrying the socialist LIEbrils who want to destroy the very fabric of the country.

For the most part political statesmanship and discourse in Canada has been driven to new lows each and every  year, and still consistantly strives to find new muddy ruts to crawl into at every opportunity.

It’s pathetic.

Consider the hypocrisy of Count Iggy on an “election-style tour” accusing the Conservatives of engaging in divisive politics. Would the Iggster like us to believe he is out there talking to Liberal supporters for the purpose of building bridges with the Conservatives? If he’s so proud of being abroad, of testing his wits and wings against the world, then why is he contrary to the Conservatives doing ads about his exploits? Liberal faux-outrage is getting a bit stale.

As soon as Count Iggy hits the “Eject” button connected to The Worm’s seat, I’ll believe he’s serious about doing politics differently. Otherwise, it’s just business as usual.

Even in Canada’s only official bilingual province (little Quebec) New Brunswick, Anglos fear they are being threaten by the minority francophone community since the province became bilingual.

LIEberals – still the great (language) dividers.

There’s nothing wrong with a little education.  Lord knows, the Canadian electorate doesn’t know this man at all, seeing as he’s been out of the country for most of his adult life.

Attack ads?   The MSM won’t do their job of informing the Canadian public about who their aspiring political leaders really are (unless they happen to be Conservative of course).   Anybody claiming to be fit to lead this country had better be prepared to have his/her past closely scrutinized by Canadians and not cry foul when information is revealed that is not all huggy kissy and flattering.   Background checks on a job applicant are common place in the wrokforce and politicians are not exempt, especially somebody claiming to be qualified to lead this nation.   Canadians deserve to know and somebody has to do it.  So just who do the so easily offended or  (horrors) disgusted people think should?   Heck, there is enough fabricating, misleading, and outright lying going on in politics that can be rightfully labelled disgusting, but informative and most importantly truthful ads sure don’t make the list.     

A conservative (small c) should be alarmed since it is fundamental and traditional principles that define us — political victory at the cost of those principles (and I would argue that decency and fairness are two basic principles) denudes conservativism of any purpose.
