Bob Rae will eventually wrench the Liberal leadership away from “his friend” Ignatieff and when he does, he will work to merge with his old party the NDP. It is doubtful that a good many members of either party will manage to stomach that. I believe and hope that such a merger will lead to a Conservative majority government.

We certainly never got our money’s worth from this last session. What an effin joke we have become.
How about we put Ottawa on a “pay for performance”?

The Afghan detainee issue has been flogged to death, time to move on. Canadians will never know the whole truth about who knew and when they knew because it is a given that to many of our honourable (tongue in cheek)elected MPs and MPPs have a tendency to not tell the truth and the whole truth and nothing but the truth. One thing that is certain, which I haven’t seen stated, is that all parties knew or should have known that when Afghan detainees were turned over to the Afghan authorities some would be tortured. It should not have taken a modern day Einstein to figure this out.

My concern as a Canadian is that our governments, whether federal or provincial, all too often spend our money recklessly with no regard for the needs of everyday Canadians. The G8 and G20 is a very good example.

It is going to be very interesting to see what the Auditor General finds when she examines the books.

The Parliamentary Soap Opera will continue in the fall, so stay tuned.

Ignatieff thinks that Parliament is his theatre stage. He should, rather than wasting our money travelling around the country, join the Bolshoi Theatre and get a permanent job. He could take along his Coalition buddies as clowns.

The last thing the opposition want is a government that works when they themselves are not “ruling”. It should be a relief that these bozos are off for the summer. They can’t do as much damage that way. Sad that it’s that way for all Canadians but it is.

I think the best that we can hope for, is undercooked hamburger. Perhaps if there are not so many politicians, when they do return, we might be better off (especially after they find out that our health system is not all that they say it is).

My biggest concern, is that, over the summer, the people of Canada are likely to forget just how stupid politicians (of all types) are. Thanks to the NCC, somebody is watching those idiots, and informing the people.

The big problem is the Bloc, which has far too many seats because it is a regional party. Regional parties should NOT be allowed to participate in a NATIONAL election. They can elect members with a very small proportion of votes. EVERY party should have to run candidates in EVERY riding.

Grammar lesson: the plural of MP is “MPs” not “MP’s”, which is possessive. You make this mistake in all your writings.
