Let's Do The Liberals A Favour

Let us as Canadians reduce the current Liberal bunch to a handful and almost extinguish them.

Let us do to the Liberals what we did to the Conservatives after Mulroney. That will force them back to their grassroots and force them to re-invent themselves from the bottom up as opposed to their current culture of entitlement. In all honesty, if one looks at the current parties, Conservative, Liberal, NDP and Bloc, you have to admit that three of them are from the bottom up. Three of them represent the people. Three of them have policies that were created and based on what the people say at the door, face to face. The Liberals get their ideas from lobbyists, insiders and other well connected Liberals. They gain their support by fraud and deceit. Their policies are top down while the other three partys are bottom up.

After Mulroney the Conservatives had to get back to the grass roots and rebuild their foundation, their platform, their policies, their direction. They did that. They struggled but did it honestly and consistently by talking to people. We need to unite as Canadians coast to coast and we can accomplish that by sending the Liberals to the same wilderness we sent the Conservatives after Mulroney. That will force the Liberals to learn that they aren't entitled, that they can not assume the support of the people and behave in an unethical or dishonest manner. They can not ignor the people's wishes or values. They cant go in 56 directions at the same time.

The reality is that, based on Hansard, the Conservatives and NDP, more often then any of the other parties, vote together in the same direction on the same issues. That forced me to look at both the NDP and Conservatives and forced me to decide between trusting Government or trusting the individual. I must admit that the deciding factor is the difference between a party that must always side with their union base even if it means outpricing the cost of health insurance for us, the people and one that is not so beholding.

You have to admit that Layton sides with the union wages made by people in the health field and protects that first which belies, in fact undermines, his committment to free medical care. He is like the union business agent and sides with his support not the people being served. If there is one thing that I have learned after some 40 years, it is that the private sector always does things more effectively and efficently ( ie cheaper and quicker) then does government. Always. No matter the Conservatives are my choice. But NDP or Conservative is the answer. Let us get rid of the Liberals and do them a favour. And do the country a favour. After watching the debates you can sense the hatred between the Liberals and the Quebecers; a hatred that almost drips.

In reality Mulroney did the Conservatives an indirect favour by losing so badly. We need to send the Liberals back to the drawing boards so they can learn the values of integrity and honesty and principles and policies and consistency and based from the ground up. Then they lose their arrogant culture of spin and entitlement. In the next election we must insure there are only a handful of Liberals left from PQ to BC. That will mean a Conservative majority with fewer Liberals then the Bloc. Then the Liberals will look in the mirror which always only happens after a major defeat.. Lets do them a favour.
