Preston Manning, what? A good pompous windbag. Saw him on The Agenda and he took up so much air time with his fatuous, non speak, I don't know what you call it. Trouble with politics is that people who go into it seem not to be able to say exactly what they mean using words we get. Same flabby diction. What did Manning do that was so great, besides being a reformer. (with his sites set against immigrants, gays, jobless, immigrants and criminals). His religious views made him intolerant of anyone without the God fearing backbone he felt belonged to "his kind". Rather than a list, why not discuss? I like Justin Trudeau. Or are you just going to call him down on his facial hair?

Look up dear Justin and see how he sidles up to Castro and others of that ilk.

I'm not religious. I support gay rights and gay marriage. I believe immigration levels should be increased. By all accounts, I am a liberal. I not only liked Manning but volunteered for the party. I think you have bought too much into the propaganda spoon fed to you. Sure, there were nutters in the reform party but there were/are nutters in every party. Does the name Hedy Fry or Svend Robinson ring a bell?

Are they any worse than a million other politicians across Canada? What about Paul Reitsma, Belinda Stronich, David Emerson, Moe Sihota? Need I go on?

If we're counting all levels of government I'd say the Ford brothers would top the list of worst.
