Bryan Posted October 10, 2008 Report Posted October 10, 2008 Yay! George Bush....What WILL they do when their boogeyman is gone....they will be sooo lonely. Whatever, we have our attack sites, they have theirs.... There's a huge difference though. The Conservative attacks have been at least based on reality. Spin and idological opinion, sure, but still a specific attack on a specific real policy or action. An increasingly larger proportion of the Liberal and NDP attacks have been made up out of whole cloth. Especially the comparisons to GWB. Harper seems right wing by Canadian standards, but he'd be reviled by even the most moderate Republican as extremely left wing. The Conservative Party founding principles (http://www.conservative.ca/EN/4679/) would put them to the left of even most Democrats. Quote
Cameron Posted October 10, 2008 Report Posted October 10, 2008 The dippers (sorry, NDP) and LPC don't care. They know people will buy it up. I was canvasing the other day (with the Conservatives!) and the stuff that some people were talking about blew my mind. They were so misinformed about issues it really shook my confidence in the electorate. Some of the issues where provincial and municipal. Basic knowledge of governmental procedure and international affairs were lacking. We were at this gentleman's door and he handed back the pamphlet and said he would not be voting CPC (The old "ABC"...how original). We asked him why, and he said he didn't like Harper. We asked him in what light don't you like Harper and maybe there was some questions we could clear up. No, it was because "He has the devil in his eyes"....unbelievable.
