And they're off and running. It's What Recession in front, with WTF Am I Doing Here back a length, with Forever Bridesmaid in last place. No, wait, here come I Fart In Your General Direction, sauntering down the field. No hurry there, they've already won the prize they're after,

When Harper gets a minority... again, after a democratic election, will you still be whining about democracy undermined?

Horrible move for the Liberals. Even those inside the Liberal party know this was a bad time go to the polls.

Guy Fawkes said the exact same thing today. +10 rep points. Flies in the face of what a few others say about me. They stick to petulantly voting down just about every news link I submit.
To be honest I never liked the rep thing. It allowed people you didn't like to make a permanent comment on your profile and I found I spent an inordinate amount of time simply trying to respond neg rep for neg rep and couldn't enjoy the site. As always a thumbs up gesture or beer cheers smiley is appreciated.

Harper government falls in historic Commons showdown
$1:
The Liberal Leader said Mr. Harper confirmed his disrespect for democracy by speaking after the vote but making no mention of the fact that his government had just been found in contempt of Parliament and taking no questions from reporters. “This tells you all you need to know about this man,” he said.

Says the guy who missed the most days in Parliament and who's 20 points back in the polls.

If the libs gain a minority, and NDP gain enough seats I can forsee a coalition between them to ram as much liberal legislation as possible before it collapses. Otherwise, probably another minority for the cons.

No thanks...getting tired of this crap.
