He acts like he wants our idiot press to tell him what to do. And then he does it. <br /><br />What a spineless twerp. If you are smart enough, you are able to rely upon your own thinking, and that of your advisors. You certainly shouldn't give anything other than a paternalistic smile to the concerns from our ludricrously stupid public press.<br /><br />One of Harper's good traits is that he holds our media in searing contempt, and listens only to his advisors. At most, he views the media as a tool to play with, and otherwise ignores it. The same held with Chretien. And also with Bush.crfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726414637021391906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708375.post-77965521421233748672009-12-30T23:06:14.510-05:002009-12-30T23:06:14.510-05:00Lindsay

They should not have announced it before defeating the CPC. I felt it was important to be there during the US transition, to ensure "Buy American" included us. Instead we're still fighting it. By the end of January that window had been lost due to prorogation. But they could still have gone ahead, making it clear it is a one time situation due to the economic downturn. Since it seems half the Liberal party sat on its hands so Dion would fail, they should at least have prepared something so Iggy would hit the ground running. Since he wasn't really ready, he backed off from toppling the CPC then.<br /><br />Then Iggy took the summer to think about things, and came back ready to dump Harper. If he had actually done his homework, he would have stuck to his guns and whipped every vote against the CPC until the NDP or Bloc tired of supporting Harper. But he didn't do his homework, and as you say, he did not have a series of positions that would carry through an election campaign.<br /><br />Now he wants to have the conference in March? That is crazy. The conference should start the day the government would have returned, in late January. While Harper and his ministers sip their lattes at the Olympics, the Liberals could have some policy results by then. Naturally everyone will be cheering our athletes during the Olympics, and I'm sure some Liberals are attending, but the work of hammering out the broad policy ideas into actual policy positions of the conference could continue. Then in March, vote down the CPC as soon as possible, regardless of the polls.<br /><br />For a university professor, I am displeased at the lack of doing his homework I am seeing.liberal supporterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01129945625510633921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708375.post-39993434458477657692009-12-30T18:55:39.964-05:002009-12-30T18:55:39.964-05:00and i for one am glad to see you back, oh towering...and i for one am glad to see you back, oh towering jesusLindsay Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13461043718147845594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708375.post-36423701711339338192009-12-30T18:36:39.916-05:002009-12-30T18:36:39.916-05:00jesus christ!

I want a decent alternative and I want Canadians to get angry and demand one.<br /><br />Ignatieff is worse than worthless because he's standing in the way of the possibility of an alternative. <br /><br />Holding a conference in March? How convenient. Just follow Harper's tail wind.<br /><br />This is a good post.
