i did not think the parties presented any different from each other when projecting there policies,i really never viewed the Wildrose party as seperate in identity from the Conservatives,then and now.
Actually all i ever saw with the rise of the Wildrose party is history once again repeating itself,when the Conservatives in previous times were called out on their policies and Albertans became annoyed with their leadership ,the "Western Reform" party was invented as the alternative to the Conservatives,Albertans ate it up,and leaped on the opportunity of another right wing party.
It was beautiful music for the Conservative right.
it has been the same presentation as we see of modern day politics, of floor crossing,back door deals,nuts rearing their ugly heads,it is all so familar,how about friends appointed to high positons such as the Senate,politics always repeats itself,particularly if the plan has a history of working.
i never believed or was convinced the Wildrose party was real or legitimate from the beginning.
call me a polliticol skeptic if you may,
to make matters worse,my cousin ran under the Wildrose party banner,i love my cousin,but I also know his ideologies,I was convinced if he could be endorsed by the Wildrose party,there is something very wrong with the picture, hence the party,and had to wonder what this Wildrose party is all about.
as of late, i have met up with my cousin and have been exposed to some maturity in his politics opinions, however he still presents in that geek 101 category with minimal capacity for independent thinking,this is a good/bad thing,but it does not convince me,to have the least bit of confidence of politics and the new right wing parties that have risen from discontented followers then go onto establish themselves as the alternative party of good faith.I have problems with this thinking.
In my musings i want to share this with you readers,
I could not get myself appointed to a board even if I decided to play my creditbility resume,I may not be wordly,but i am extremely fair in my abilities to see things for what they really are,I familarize myself with the knowledge i need to do my work well,I would be a fabulous choice for a public social board or Commission,I am easy to get along with,respect authority, with this being said,
viewing my cousin being placed to such a lofty position when he has exercised extreme ideologies,and behaviour i find strange, gives me great insights to the structure of decison making within politics.
Daniel Smith will find herself on a fancy board with a fatcat honourary allowance,lucky girl!
I like that in a woman leader.
speaking of, does anyone know where our past Premier is,Premier Alison Redford,I loved her,I hope she found herself a big chair,with a shiny table,she deserves it. What a great team player!three cheers for Alison.
I like Preston Manning ,and I like to know more about his million dollar think tank Office in downtown Calgary.I am not anti-right wing party policy,just right wing parties.
