The current Liberal leadership just doesn’t seem to get it; if you agree with the Tories on 90% of legislation then you simply cannot expect to present yourself as an opposition. It is really getting to the point at which if the leadership were being honest they would be talking about a merger of the CP and LPC. Both parties are stagnating in the polls because neither seems to have a real vision for the future.
How come the US Ambassador to Canada was a go between the Liberals and Cons in order to broker a deal to keep us in the war? How come me, a citizen of this country, got no say in this through my elected representative via a debate in Parliment? Why does the US Ambassador get more input than the citizens of this country?

So it goes.

My favourite line from the article:
“The chill Stephen Harper has put on parliament is still looking for a spine to run up in the Liberal Party”
Sort of sums up the whole parliamentary experience these days.
A pile of metaphors in that one!
