I'm pretty sure this is what they're thinking.
The last conservative gains a heart
Dear Harper. Unlike 99% of the people in my age group I was kind of a fan. You were ruthless, cold, and calculating, but you got the job done and sang the beatles. I'm starting to change my mind. See, first you blow a billion on a ridiculous meeting in Toronto, I understand security is
Harper may have trouble
I should be studying, and I feel like hell with a dratted head cold that came at the worst possible moment, but I feel the need to comment for some unknown reason on Iggy. Which is apparently the nickname for Michael Ignatieff. I like him. I know what he's got going against him, and a
Brant’s Back!
Yay! I've never met the guy, but I can't explain how excited I am to be reading new things from him again. If you haven't read him yet you must. From his latest, on Europe: Study much, and you'll see: A sure sign a culture is finished is when children are viewed in cost/benefit terms,
I dreamed of coalitions…
Or maybe it was a nightmare. Who knows? I've been following the Full Comment blog from the National Post and have realized two things. A) I'm more conservative than the moderate I used to think I was. B) The coalition makes me nervous. I had written an entire post about the coalition and why I
Villify them!
This article by David Frum on Bush's legacies is an interesting one. I've started to wonder whether the general hatred of Bush stems mainly from his communication issues and the decision to invade Iraq.

Out of the shadows

Anyway, I'm coming back on here to briefly share a thought. I'm amazed how many bloggers are posting the video and full text of Barack Obama's (amazing) speech.
Status Quo Maintained.
In Alberta the Conservatives have taken their 11th mandate to form a government. The Conservative party is in its 37th year as the Government of Alberta. This iteration will take them past the 40 year mark. I guess you can say there has been a lot of good done by this Government. The province is
Back to the Grind.
I accomplished many things over reading week. I managed to watch all of "The Office" from the first episode right to the last one before the Writer's Strike. Actually, that was about all I accomplished. With midterms before and watching an entire series during reading week I got a little negligent here. There are a
