May be you said inadvertently "shack his hand". <br /><br />I suppose they “shack up” his hand and then together (Iggy, Harper and the ilk) they “shack up” the people.LeDarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12526776746689708239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35317973.post-85891426790612543622009-04-19T18:03:00.000-04:002009-04-19T18:03:00.000-04:00Lament of a leader.
The problem, as I see it for ...Lament of a leader. <br />The problem, as I see it for the Liberals, is that when in power, they started the taxcutting, after building up a surplus (false as they were skimming EI surplus money that did not belong to them and thus "cooked the books"), and started down the taxcut road - corporate taxcuts - check.<br />Those cute redbook promises of 1993 - childcare - got trotted out in dying days of their minority govt. <br />Take note that Iggy's latest childcare plan is - drum roll please - $100 bucks per month for qualifying families. Oh that's what Harper got us into and Iggy likes it. <br />The honesty part is about who will pay - and we all know that the corporate backers of Iggy the emperalist won't. Not when they are paying 500 bucks a pop to pack a room, and extra to shack his hand. <br />Follow the money and one knows who is in bed with who.susansmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02573558646874765432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35317973.post-23638983959551634472009-04-19T16:31:00.000-04:002009-04-19T16:31:00.000-04:00MoS,what more can I say.

Too bad they didn't have that foremost in their mind when they decided to squander all that money on piecemeal handouts that will do very little to stimulate the economy. Had they spent the money themselves, actually taken responsibility for it, they could have launched one or two major infrastructure projects (such as a new, high-speed national railway) that would have been an actual 'investment,' the sort of asset that pays a tangible return in the future when that deficit comes due. Wouldn't it be nice if the taxpayers actually got value for that burden? It's what happens when you have political leadership with no courage or vision.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.com
