Makes you think.

Hey Zenrage, I don’t think the moderates are the most inhuman, but I do think they’re the most baffling. They certainly get the most representation from our lukewarm candidates.

Back on topic, I don’t know that going to an election would have been the smart thing to do, anyway. It might have been doable if the Liberal policy shop had put out a detailed economic recovery plan of their own — seriously, what would they have campaigned on otherwise? Ignatieff’s personal charm?

Extremists are people who look at Eastern philosophy as unprincipled and immature: “YIN OR YANG! YIN OR YANG! CHOOSE NOW, FOREVER!”

Sounds like, despite the best efforts of Canadian advertising, Canada simply is no more capable of learning from the mistakes of the USA than the people of the USA are.

To me, its the moderates who are really the sickest people of any political system. These assholes sit in the middle and wait and wait for someone on either side of the political spectrum to not only make a stand for something important to that side but also make it “entertaining” for the moderates as well.

And by “entertaining”, I means someone usually has to either shoot someone or get shot themselves. Only then will the sociopathic moderate people feign interest long enough to get up any start talking about the issue at hand.

I mean look at the Christians. These people don’t care about the message of Christ unless they get to talk about how he got nailed to a block of wood and left to die first. If Christ didn’t die in some horrible fashion, no one would have cared about his message. IMO, Judas should be a saint to the moderate people of the world.

St Judas, harbinger of entertainment.

I’m sorry. I think I went off on two different tangents here and so I will stop now. I blame the cold medicine.

And that, ladies and gentleman, is Canadian conservative politics in a nutshell.

Godsdamn, could the liberals find another fucking Jean Chretien already? Seriously, after Dion and Michael ‘Torture’s okay as long as we only do it to brown people’ Ignatieff, Paul ‘Laughs like a little girl’-fucking Martin is starting to look like Winston-bleeding-Churchill.

The Liberals need to stop dicking around, join up with the NDP and the Bloc (who are pretty cool apart from the sovereignty thing) and take the Tories down (yes, I really liked the coalition idea from last winter).

Canadian politics are more fun after a pint.
