A former Liberal, driven away by the party’s intrinsic corruption, I distrust Harper’s coalition of the corporatocracy and the sectarian nanny wing. <BR/><BR/>The provincial conservatives, masquerading as the B.C. Liberal Party, lack the Christian evangelicals so worship Mammon instead of Jesus. Campbell’s minions serve corporations, real estate moguls and whatever group appeals now to the Great Leader.<BR/><BR/>The NDP with its tax and spend lolly grabbers ain’t the answer either. I spoiled ballots a few times – illegal, I know – but “none of the above” has never been an available choice.<BR/><BR/>Unless he contains the Basi Virk scandal and hides the real Olympic shortfalls until after the May election, Campbell’s final days may be on the horizon. That possibility should bring a few new recruits out of the NDP closets. Nobody boards a sinking ship but the Liberal troubles will encourage some new political players to join the opposition forces.<BR/><BR/>Where is Gordon Wilson anyway?NRFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10313572676780364282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242439673360261416.post-67067361986600158752009-02-03T11:52:00.000-08:002009-02-03T11:52:00.000-08:00David, I agree with your opinion 100%.

I'm not happy that the NDP hasn't announced a platform yet and when they do it will most likely have more to do with bashing the Liberals than leading us out of the wilderness.<BR/><BR/>I'll vote NDP anyhow as it's the beauracrats that run the government and to a great degree set policy, albeit unofficially. No new Minister in a cabinet portfolio can possibly pick up the reigns and run immediately first over the finish line. That can't happen, either now nor could it have in the prosperous past. No one is that core smart.<BR/><BR/>I believe the NDP have the best interests of more of us at heart than the cold callous Liberals and that's a proven fact. That coupled with a knowledgeable beauracracy will carry us through.<BR/><BR/>IMHO.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242439673360261416.post-69268165533491367412009-02-03T10:08:00.000-08:002009-02-03T10:08:00.000-08:00Right on!

Should I trot off and "reward" the inexcusable, or the incompetent, or should I sit on my hands? I have in the past given considerable thought to bowing out, but at the 11th hour gone to the Polls. This time? Well..... I just don't know. It is a sad commentary, but true.<BR/><BR/>CheersAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242439673360261416.post-17935037721176817932009-02-03T09:48:00.000-08:002009-02-03T09:48:00.000-08:00Deficits-Smeficits ...
