Just When You Thought It Was Safe
I wrote a while back about Facebook killing my inner child. Seems I’m not the only one.
If you’re asking yourself, “Who is this guy?” He’s the executive producer of a rather successful science-fiction franchise. And a writer.
It’s No Wonder
Yet another mud-slinging session in parliament. I’m really getting sick and tired of this sort of thing.
Just read this for the back story. I don’t want to reiterate the whole stinkin’ thing.
This is yet another reason that voter apathy in Canada is at an all time high. So here’s my take on the whole thing:
- The Liberals are accusing the Conservatives of bribing. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. Do we remember the reason that the Liberals got voted out in the first place? Oh, that’s right. We don’t remember. The collective memory of Canada is shorter than the attention span of an ADHD kid.
- The Conservatives are making bribes. Can we say Liberals all over again? I think they should just merge those two parties, give the other parties (that seem to actually give a damn) a chance to get into office. Except the NDP. I shudder at the thought of “Prime Minister Jack Layton.” I need to go and clean myself now.
There are some days when I wish I didn’t care about my country and its political system. That might account for part of my high blood pressure.
