I donno about this issue, I sorta think that it is ok for high up politicians to fly on private jets. But then again, it is sorta a wast of money? Im pretty sure almost every other Western Nation does it? So I donno if I support it or not. I am kinda like 75% for it, and 25% against it.

Im sure most people will disagree with me, but w.e. it is just my 2 cents. lol

I think that the Liberals received an F for their past run in power, and go by the Fiberal party, don't they?

The questions are "who paid for it?" and "does this create a conflict of interest?"

Yeah I know what you mean. I live in Vancouver East. You can run a monkey for the NDP and it will get elected.

Just got back from the Harper rally in Surrey, and now I really want him to get a Conservative Majority! That is as long as Cindy Silver gets in! Right Mack? :yes:

I don't see a Conservative majority, unless Ontario completely turns against the Liberals and Quebec turns against the Bloc, with the Conservatives being the sole beneficiary.

I think that it is gonna be really close to a Conservative Majority (if not one). and I hope it is too, cuz stupid Minority Gov'ts never get anything done.

When I see the occasional Liberal lawn sign, I have this overwhelming urge to knock on the door of the home in question and ask them politely, "are you aware that THEY STOLE YOUR MONEY?"

I'm not too worried, however -- I know many long time Liberals who are not voting Liberal this time around. Even they believe their party needs to be punished, and needs time in opposition to renew itself. I think these guys are going to be sent to their rooms for a pretty lengthy "time out" tonight...
