Anti-cons... a new political party in the making?

I wasn't entirely sure if I was going to broach this subject today, but my hand has been forced.  I spent way too many hours on The Conservative and Harper FB pages yesterday enjoying some interesting, sometimes intelligent but often nonsensical debates.  During this time all I could think of was how Iggy used the term "Harper Regime" and how many of the leftist publications talk about neocon bullies. 

Well Here are some examples of what I saw...

The first was a class act!  Steve was all for legalizing marijuana, that was mostly what he spoke about and should you not agree with his view this was the type of well thought out response you would get:

Steve Chorney Steven Harper in a fucking idiot ... go suck eggs you fruitcake!!!!!

Steve Chorney John Cook ... I'm not even going to challenge your stupidity which was dripping from the idiotic message you wrote to me. You're the exact mentality I've been speaking about on this forum, and are the ideal example of a true PC supporter ... tunnel vision and uneducated in your assumptions. Go fuck yourself buddy, and tell you wife that I can't hump hert tonight ... got a headache from our romp session last night. Tell her maybe tomorrow.

Steve Chorney Christine, I think the lack of blood flow to your heart and brain from obesity is making you a little delerious yourself.

Another was this "Corporation" that again was simply on Harpers site to attack...  here is how our conversation went:

Gered Cuerrier SO tell us SJWPS... and I am trying really hard not to laugh at your name here... I'm just use to more vowels... What party are you for? You seem to be very good at hating The Conservatives, but don't see strong advocacy for another party... not even on your site... 

SJWPS.ca Gered Cuerrier: The great conservative himself, Hon. Danny Williams put it best, "Anybody But Conserative. A Harper majority would be disaserous for Canada." I would be happy to forward a copy of the video to yourslf... or better yet, vi...sit our web-site at (you guessed it) www.SJWPS.ca.
Further, not that it's any of your business, I will be voting strategically to unseat Harper to the very best of my abiliy whether that means voting NDP, Green or the freakin' Bloc.

But my personal favourite was the personal message I received in my FB inbox this morning, here is how that conversation has gone so far:

wow you dont have much friend , but i understand with a picture like that. Rong Polical view by the way U.S.A. ball sucker.

Gered Cuerrier March 30 at 8:03am Wow, I'm so honoured you took the time to look me up... just to send such a well thought out, grammatically correct message. Is this your way of trying to sway me to your way of thinking? Do you think at all? IT's seems funny to me that all I hear about is the "Harper Regime", "neocons", and how we are all bullies... yet it is the anti-cons that keep spewing hate propaganda. Do you have any valid points you would like to make for your party, or are you just an anti-con? .

Help me help you buddy , vote for any one but Concervative.

So it seems to me that there is a new movement,  I am calling it/them Anti-cons.  They will bully, berate and attack anything and everything conservative while not putting a bit of thought into what is best for Canada or even why they will vote for someone other then they know why they won't vote for Harper.

Come on people!!!  There is no one single answer for all people!  I will gladly tell you why I like the Conservative Party, why can't anyone tell me why they like someone else?  Read, study, debate, this is what we all need... question my ideas, but do it with intelligence and without attacking.  I know what Harper did, I read the same papers.  I also know what was done by past PM's.

Stop being an Anti-con and be pro-democracy and pro-Canada

How easy it is....

I had an interesting experience yesterday.  You might call it a lesson in FB etiquette.  Or perhaps it was more then that?

It started out innocently enough, well maybe not innocently but well this is what happened.  A friend of mine "liked" a video that was posted on YouTube,    It was a video mocking Harper and comparing his speech to the Emperors speech in Star Wars Episode... ummm 1 or 2?  I should probably know this but meh...

Anyway, it played on the fact that he used words like, stability and security for Canadians.  So I see this and think, I can't let these Lefties get away with it.  So I post a comment, and then a response to another comment and finally get a reply that if I don't like what my friend posted, I should no be attacking it on his wall.  I couldn't argue with that.  Seemed I had inadvertently broken FB etiquette.  Now it may not be official etiquette, I don't know... I'm still not sure about this whole Social Networking/Media thing (I say as I am writing on my Blog) :)

But it sounded right, and at the end of the day Left or Right, "right is right".  But what I then thought was how I had gotten sucked in like our political leaders.  Taking pot shots and responding to them instead of ignoring it and sticking to the issues.  After all that is what an election should be about right?  I certainly wouldn't vote conservative if they suddenly decided to split up the country, just because they are the Conservative Party.

So can it be done?  Could a political party actually win an election, or even run a half way decent campaign without the mudslinging?   Could Harper possibly win without attacking the other parties?  Or without defending against attacks?  I don't think today's media outlets would let it happen.  When you listen to reporters questions, they are almost always tainted with comments from these attacks.  I don't think we'll ever find out if it is possible as no one wants to take the chance and if they did and lost they would be out of a job faster then I could post about it!  But I do think you would see a lot less of what happened with Harper and his 2004 coalition discussions.  If he's not talked about the coalition in the first place (something I got caught up with yesterday) Duceppe, would not have been able to make Harper look bad.  These secret talks would have had no impact.

Harper if you are reading this (ya right!) Stop talking trash, you already have a strong backing.  Give us the goods.  Show us how you lead Canada through the world economic downturn.  Show us the plan for the next 4 years.  Tell us why it is the right thing to do!  And seriously, a tax break for families that's not for 4 years... you should have kept that for the next election!

In contempt? really? What about Adscam? Fire Arms Registry? Tainted Blood Scandal???

I know I am a little late in witting this article, and it has been some time since I wrote anything at all, but this... this I could not stand by and watch without adding my two cents. 

So the Liberals, NDP and those I love the most, the BLOC, voted that Stephen Harper and the Conservatives were in contempt of Parliament.  Now I am not defending anything the Conservatives may have done that may be considered unethical.  But I think the whole idea of being able to make such an accusation and have only those who wish to usurp the Conservatives position voting contemptible at best.

This was not done by a judge or third party commission, but simply by a coalition of political parties that are completely biased.  And how could they not be?  If they all voted for this motion they get another chance to possibly get elected into power, and if they don't well... they remain the losers of the last election.  I also find it funny that this is even a parliamentary process at all.  I mean how would this ever work if there was a majority government in place?  Anyone from the party being "charged" that was thinking of voting for the motion would immediately be removed from their position.  It would be political suicide.

Besides if we want to talk contempt of Parliament or more importantly contempt of Canada, why were the Liberals not held in contempt for any one of the many scandals and debacles (click here for a list).  Because they had a majority Government.

So here we are, back to the Polls.  What are Canadians to do?  Many may feel voting for the Conservatives again will only lead to another minority government, and this may happen.  But WE NEED TO TRY!  How can any self respecting Canadian vote for a party that is willing to work with a party who's sole agenda is to breakup our Great Nation?  For any of those that doubt the Bloc's (eastern BLOC?) intentions simply click here and read their own propaganda.  They name Quebec as a Nation already.  If this isn't treason then we may as well remove the treason laws from our law books.  These are the people that the Liberals are willing to go to bed with, just to defeat the Conservatives!  How could anyone think that this is for the best of Canada?

Every political party has it's good and it's bad. (well except the Bloc, they are nothing but bad).  Canadians must decide which party will be best for all of us as Canadians.  I don't think any party could have come close to doing as well as the Conservatives have through this world economic collapse that occurred.  Something that many Liberal supporters seem to have forgotten about (this based on what I read in comments on the websites of our national and regional news providers).

Well I doubt I will sway any ones decision, but I am going to do my best to express my views over the months to come in hopes that we can finally get a majority Government that will not have to live with threats from BLOC, Liberals, or NDP.
