If we played like the CONs, we'd just airbrush out the 'unhelpful' words and make it say "I, Jimbo Flaherty, of sound mind and shakey economic abilities, am willing to jack up your personal income tax so that the CEO's of the world who do business in Canada can have another feather duvet on their beds!"rockfishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02835472375196889875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-25876339218144993112011-01-27T01:09:28.902-05:002011-01-27T01:09:28.902-05:00Rotterdam, you'd fit in with the teabaggers qu...Rotterdam, you'd fit in with the teabaggers quite well. The US is about to get way less government in the not so distant future, a lot less than they counted on.<br /><br />CS, you should check the latest Abacus poll on what Canadians think of giving corporations tax breaks.

It is the core of the hypocrisy that is the MO of many in Ottawa. Are we not all fed up with an MP or party leader criticizing the other party for something they would do, or staying silent when their party does something which, if another party did, they would criticize vociferously? <br /><br />It never ends and explains the gradually lowering turnout at the polls. Will the system still have legitimacy when the voter turn out is 20%?Kirbycairohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17528654183160305877noreply@blogger.com
