... and if you don't like those fiscal principles, well, they've got others.
Shorter Stephen Harper, Sept 27, 2007: "It is vitally important that we invest every available penny in paying down our federal debt, since there is no higher priority."
Shorter Stephen Harper, Oct 30, 2007: "Oh, man, we are swimming in so much fucking cash, tax cuts for everybody!! Let the good times roll! Whoo hoo!!"
Shorter Canadian, dumbass motherfuckers, Nov 4, 2007: "Where the hell do you get the nerve to suggest that the surplus be used to benefit Canadians? Don't you know there's a federal debt to pay down!?"
My neck hurts.

Harper has been consistent on one thing. He doesn't want the money spent on a bloated bureaocracy in Ottawa (excepting defense and law and order budgets which appear to be increasing).
He has been clear that he will spend it to pay down the debt. He will spend it to fix a "fiscal imbalance", and he will cut taxes.
This is a clear policy direction he is giving to Canadian's.
Most Liberals hate it, but have been spectacularly unsuccessful in convincing the Canadian public why they shouldn't buy it.
They have gone so far as to publicly abstain from defeating a statement that said Kyoto is dead and to publicly abstain from defeating the huge tax breaks that will leave precious little money for social justice, poverty, and day care programming; and no money to give others to balance our carbon credit books.
Whether the Liberal's win this next election, lose it, or lose it with gusto, unless they force an election, they need to quit talking like the Tories are the devil, because their credibility is being ripped into rags too small even for dusting.

tomm sends us all into fits of hysterical laughter with:
"Harper has been consistent on one thing."
Yes, Tomm, that is Stephen Harper's defining quality -- his consistency. *Snort*. *Giggle*.
"He has been clear that he will spend it to pay down the debt. He will spend it to fix a "fiscal imbalance", and he will cut taxes."
Tomm, sweetie ... as difficult as this may be for you to grok, you can't whinge on and on about how obsessively fixated you are on paying down the federal debt, only to turn around and give out $60 billion in tax cuts.
Now, go away and get an education. Or at least learn some basic logic before you come back here and try to lecture the rest of us.
CC,
I thought I was entertaining AND informing.
I guess I was wrong, thanks for straightening me out.
Wanna see me juggle?

The Harper Jiggle. Isn't that the hot dance craze those kids are all on about these days?
Sheena,
You may be right. But is now the right time for "fat" jokes?
Tomm
