$1:
Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff pledged Wednesday to erase the projected $50-billion federal deficit if elected into government -- and to do so without raising taxes.
Oh man....that was good. I needed that.
Gee, y'know? I didn't know Iggy was MAGIC. Maybe I'll vote for him after all. While he's at it maybe he can turn my dick into chocolate so I can always be sure to please the ladies....
...or maybe he could get together with the loch ness monster and find the sasquatch.
Jeziz. Talk about completely delusional...for that matter talk about lying. That right there kids is a grade A+ lie.

Not delusional at all, JUST like the previous Liberal government clean up of the debt, he'll just reduce federal transfer payments to the provinces, who will download that to the municipalities, who download that onto the taxpayer. So Iggy CAN do it without the FEDERAL Lieberals raising taxes. It's just a pathetically transparent attempt at semantics. Nice try Iggy but we ain't buyin' it.
Akhenaten @ Wed Sep 02, 2009 2:17 pm
Yep. That's how he'll do it.

Like the old saying goes. "Fool me once, shame on you. Try and fool me twice, go fuck yourself."

You both forgot the inevitable cuts to the CF.
Jeez, I wish the Liberals had at least one other line of thinking...

I like to think that Iggy found all the gold that was smuggled out of the mint when Dingwald was in charge. Either way, it's defintely a fairy tale.

What a load of bs, it was the Liberals that DEMANDED Canada go into deficit in the first place

Ladies and Gentlemen for his next trick the Great Iggymeister, will make the province of Alberta dissapear.
What a crock. The only way he'd ever promise something like that is if he new he wasn't gonna win the next election. I give you Taliban Jack as an example, promise the world cause you know your never gonna have to deliver.
