I'm starting to have some serious reservations about Harper.#

First, he complains about Liberals wasting money, and then he goes and purposely obstructs parliament 3 days in a row.# That is basically the political equivalent of a temper tantrum.# His party seems more interested in obstructing than working.# He wants to force an election and waste $300 million dollars instead of trying to make things work.

Second, he is making handshake deals with a Quebec separtist.# This one worries me quite a bit.# Here is a guy who could very well be the next Prime Minister of the country, and he is forming a political alliance with a person whose goal is to dismantle the country.# Their politics share very little common ground - one is a right conservative, and the other is a left socialist.# You can bet your bottom dollar that Duceppe isn't helping Harper right now out of the goodness of his heart.# It really makes me wonder what Duceppe will gain from Harper if the conservatives win the next election.

I don't think I could respond to your comments any better than this cartoon from a Toronto publication claiming to be a "National" newspaper:

It's not that I don't trust Harper or the conservatives. I actually do trust them - I trust them to do a lot things that I don't want them to do.

With the Liberals, you at least know that the economy and budget will work, Quebec separatism dies down, society will have progressive change, and social programs will exist to aid people - all things that I believe in. The Conservatives may in fact have less corruption (or more, as there is guarenteed to be some in every party), but I can also trust them not to pay attention to the things I care about.

It has nothing to do with trusting the moral character of individual politicians, at least not for me.[/b][/quote]
it's nice to know that the economy and budget are "at least" working. Now, let's vote in the Conservatives and get them to fine tune the economy and budget by trimming all the excesses from the gun registry, adscam, the Kyoto agreement and the golf course in Jean Cretien's riding that funded the Liberal Party's election campaigns and bought the silence and services of family and friends of the Party over the last decade.
