Politics makes me laugh
So now that Elizabeth May and her Green Party are allowed into the debates, the Christian Heritage Party wants in too. (Insert ten minute break for laughter). Now, let's break this down to see why this ruling should not be applied to the CHP ( Read more... ) -
Holy Hypocrisy Batman
So I was flipping through the View Magazine on Saturday and came across an article about the Green Party not being allowed into the debate (it went to print before the decision got reversed). Now, what really happened was that Harper, Layton and Duceppe were against including May in the debate, with both Harper and Layton saying they would boycott ( Read more... ) -

Some (relatively) quick thoughts on the debate earlier tonight
It was a political debate, nothing special, but they never are. Personally, I thought that both John Tory and Howard Hampton both had solid outings, though Hampton seemed like a third wheel most of the time. Dalton McGuinty, on the other hand, seemed like he was on happy pills, trying to make things seem rosier than they really are. Dalton also ( Read more... )
