Are you more Conservative?

Steven Harper remarked on Saturday that Canadians had come to embrace "small-c" conservative values since he got into politics....and that "the Canadian public has become more conservative," never mind that 60% of the electorate disagrees with most of his policies! He is trying to re-make the Canadian public into his right wing image!

As a liberal minded woman I believe in the following...

- Women should make their own choices relating to their body.
- Huge tax cuts to the wealthy and big business is not the way to go when thousands of people are losing their jobs.
- Our public health care system should stay public
- The separation of Church and State is a good thing
- That there is Global Warming and we need to do more than just talk about it!

If you believe as I do that our unique social policies make us a great country to live in and that instead of enacting a right wing agenda of slash and burn cuts to fund the wealthy we should do more for our fellow citizens in need; Don't Vote Conservative.

It's that simple.

The Politics of Lies and Smears

Kaptoon (Sept. 7, 2008)



In Canada we are in the midst of another surprise election. Harper has managed to break one of his key election promises and has forced us to watch a campaign that no one wanted.

I cheer for Elizabeth May and her entry into the debates; but also realize that her success will be most likely result in the Liberal's losing seats to the Conservatives. I could rant on and on about negative, misleading ads that have been put out by the conservatives (need I say more than puffin?), but I every time I look at Harper in one of his new sweater vests I want to be sick!! After seeing one of his ads I was so incensed that I actually decided to join the Liberal Party. Wondering if I will actually get a card in the mail? I am finally a card carrying member of something other than my bank!

If you are as sick as I am than put your money where your mouth is and join the party of your choice!

Go Liberals! www.liberal.ca

If you are like me than you have been fascinated by the American election. I have not been able to turn away as I have been in awe of the depths to which the Republicans have sunk and that they are leading in the polls AMAZES me! I mean they are lying through their expensively bleached teeth and nobody in the media seems to call them on it.



Palin is creepy and scary and McCain has been corrupted so completely that I am surprised anyone recognizes him.

Crap how are we going to survive a whole season of this?
