A MP without any promises is free to do as he or she pleases and not be accountable for a broken promise 4 years hense. If you promise, and fail, you are judged on that in the next election. It's not perfect but its better than the no promises idea.

I just think that "endeavours" are more realistic than promises. Gov't spending relies almost entirely on the state of the economy and any politician who can't see that you know damn well is going to borrow and tax. I'd rather see a platform based on realism rather than bullsh*t, which is what pretty well all of it is these days. If you can't see the economic situation for the next four years, you sure as hell can't be sincerely making promises. Makes about as much sense as promising your wife a brand new car, but before it happens you lose your job so to keep your promise you take out another mortgage on your house.

P.S. Would you really rather want a politican who can keep promises by borrowing and raising taxes?

Maybe teddy is taking creative writing in high school and these are his submissions for grades.

"Creative", for sure with big piles of bullsh*t emerging! -:)

- IRBS ... Exactly! Mind you, in fairness to our simple retired and retarded uncivil non-servant from The Left Coast, the concepts of goals, objectives, results and accountability are absolutely foreign to him inasmuch as he spent his, umm, career screwing the pooch on the taxpayer's dime with no pressure to work hard or smart.

- taxslave ... Stop being so presumptuous. For one thing, you should actually have attended high school before you can determine whether or not my writings are high school material so right away you and obviously JLM are excluded from commenting.

You're right. It is above High School level. Your ramblings are the type you'd find of some babbling beer soaked drunk on $1 beer night at the Student's Union in University.

So what you are saying is you want to silence the two voices with the gumption and sagacity to see through and expose your blatant and banal bullsh*t!

Or the fact that you prefer to discuss their history instead of the subject?
History?

An NDP MP was scolded just the day before for uncivil behavior. For crying out loud dude, if you're going to squawk about decorum, you have to lead by example.

No party has a clean record.
No argument from me.

But if you want to remain consistent...
I always am. You should pay attention and learn how.

There were plenty of alcoholics clamoring for prohibition, "Please! Stop me from drinking myself into oblivion!"

Normally I am completely against criminalizing vice, but in this case where we (well, not me anymore) are paying someone to a job and they are wasting time on the job to take potshots just throw them in jail.

Hey dude, I'm all for cleaning up parliament.

It isn't the idea I'm enjoying poking holes in. It's nonsense like...

The fact that they would push for it knowing their own can be volatile really speaks to their credibility.

I highly doubt they're going to push to hard. This is more about optics for their shills and the perpetually brain dead, than it is about actually cleaning up parliament.

That would just make it funnier, if the Conservatives were like, "Yeah! That's a fantastic idea."

"Well, let's not be hasty."

"But it was your idea."

"It was just an idea..."

Or if they implemented it so fast that they didn't curb their manners in time.

Rhetorical whiplash.

As seen by this youtube video, NDP Leader Mulcair should volunteer for a suspension without pay for his uncivil behaviour 2 months ago.
