For those who enjoy Canadian politics or is that Polly ticks?

I am back. I am not so sure why I am back today. I just have nothing to say. There I said it. I am without speech or really without any intelligent ideas. What is in the news these days. Damn there is so much to rave about but I just do not have the heart.

Here is an idea. Up here in Canada, a Conservative Member of Parliament, who is a good looking 38 year old woman, Belinda Stronach, who did run her father's billion dollar auto parts manufacturing business, Magna International, switched parties out of "princible" to take a Cabinet post in the Liberal government and prevent the fall of a minority government. She was called many things including a whore and prostitute in the political sense. This caused a great commotion in the press. How dare she be called a "whore" or "prostitute" said the feminists and politically correct amongst us.

They are correct. Calling Belinda Stronach a whore is a disservice to the real whores whose reputations should not be sullied with Ms. Stronach's unprincipled grasp at power. You have to call it as you see it and as I see it is if it were a matter of principle for her then why did she vote with her party days before switching parties? It would be principled if she left the party and sat as an independent. I mean she does not NEED the money. She took a Cabinet post in exchange for crossing the floor. She sold or rented herself out, if that is not being a whore then I do not know what is.

Let me say, that I have nothing against her. But in hearing her press conference her grasp of the English language is rather scary. I do not begrudge her birth right or how she has lived her life, but I cannot stand the spin and self deception. If you are going to cross the floor as she did, have the balls to be honest with yourself and your constituents. She was not honest but then that should put her right at home in the Liberal Party of Canada and the Cabinet of Paul Martin.

There, there was an almost cogent argument. That is all for today. Ciao
