Did NOT think that one through, eh, Craig?


Blogging Tory co-founder and whiny, failed bloggy aggregator dude Craig Smith launches into the tedious wingnut refrain of "Why should my tax money go to things I disagree with?"

A perfectly good question, Craig, and while you're bitching, moaning, pissing and kvetching about the few million dollars that that represents, I thought I'd point out that I (and many others, I suspect) are really tired of throwing away billion after billion in the sinkhole that is Afghanistan. Can we maybe complain similarly about that?

I'm just asking.

P.S. As a Canadian taxpayer, I'm also not keen on being buried in a Conservative-produced deficit and watching my government trip over itself to lower corporate taxes even further. Boy, can we have some fun with this game or what?

Yeah, if those scum-bags hadn't told us to suck it up for years and years and years, i'd have some tiny sympathy for them.

As it is, I just want them to shut up.

Whoa whoa whoa CC.

Sounds like somebody needs a ten-percenter sent to his household reminding him how great Canada's government has been with managing the finances.

crf: You mean, a lot has to with Paul Martin refusing to deregulate our financial industry. Not that a good thing a Liberal did will ever receive credit.
