Love it!<BR/><BR/>With regards to the above reader comment:<BR/>"<I>It is time to begin looking for the new leader of the Conservative party.</I>"<BR/><BR/>IMHO: It's more like long-overdue time to begin looking at an entirely different way to govern ourselves besides this proven collectivism-empowering (where <I>parties</I> always win governing empowerment and <I>individuals</I> lose self-governing empowerment proportionally), corruption-supporting type of toxic political environment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17859678.post-64698151212571932842008-04-10T20:35:00.000-04:002008-04-10T20:35:00.000-04:00...

You and he could almost interchange and trade Harper sarcasm and insults. <BR/>Both you and Turner have personal ego problems because Harper does not march to your personal drummers and both of you think caustic name calling is somehow political discourse. <BR/>And both of you ran for Harper's job and then both of you were ousted by your peers.<BR/>Both you and Turner use the media as a personal soapbox and both of you make money from your writing and personal appearances so both of you have a vested interest in being controversial and "anti Harper" which is the way you get noticed by the Liberal media and get ivited on their shows. <BR/>Am I close? Are you and Garth sharing trade secrets and pitch hitting for each other these days?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
