Far and away the most hatred I've seen on this board is from leftists to Stephen Harper. I read the words of the left, and it's like reading wild-eyed, sleep-deprived, diatribes screaming "The Russians are coming! The Russians are coming!" or some such nonsense.
I have seen nonsensical wild innuendo that would make tabloid's blush. I have seen the most outlandish, and rediculious, criticisms, and insults, and outright demonization, imaginable. You people really do believe each and every one of those 12 Liberal attack ads, don't you? You people really do believe that Stephen Harper is some sort of scary boogey man here to bring, I suppose, a fasicst military-supported theocracy into Canada.
The most laughable is the argument that the rest of Canada wouldn't want to be like Alberta. Good grief... have you completely lost sense of reality? The Alberta economy is absolutely booming. It actually has fewer workers than it needs. The economy is so strong in that province that it needs people from other parts of Canada to work there simply to achieve basic human resources demands. Canada's economy should be so lucky as to be as strong as Alberta's.
You know what... I'm almost positive that you're all wrong. Completely positive. You people have allowed your blind hatred of anything, and everything, conservative, to blind you to reality. The reality is, folks, that it's perfectly logical for a political leader to shift to the center as the result of his former political party combining with a more moderate party. Harper's new moderate views is not a facade... it is a reality naturally brought about through uniting with the old centrist PCs.
You know what... I'm going to enjoy my stay here. I'm going to enjoy watching the predictable upsurge in the Canadian economy brought about by lowering the GST (just as Alberta's complete and utter lack of a Provincial Sales Tax helps that province mightily). I'm going to enjoy watching Harper govern moderately, and refraining from making substantial legislative alterations to hot button issues. I'm going to enjoy watching the vehement left on this board all eat crow, or look stupid for failing to admit that they were wrong.
Your unwarranted viciousness towards Harper has made up my mind. I'm voting Conservative this election.
Plus not many men want to marry a single mother of a rabid crazy hairless dog...
