Not going to flame. Just a couple of points. Not sure how it can be seen at self-promotion, my name hasn't been in papers in connection to the WR since 2009. Even this piece is just an online blog. And really, my speaking out could cause me more harm than good.
Plus Markusoff approached me, not the other way around.
And Cory and I are two different people. Very different.
Markusoff was looking for an unfiltered, supporter perspective. Some may see that as controversial. What's the harm if it generates discussion? I think every party needs to be able to take a critical look at themselves.
BTW, I don't think I'm "well-known"; nor do I care to be. I don't have any political aspirations at this time beyond supporting and making the WR better and stronger. |
More Wildrose party members like you should be speaking out, even though I understand the reluctance considering what speaking out has done recently to your party's chances. Still, people need to know that there are actual decent people in the party.
If the argument against muzzling certain party members was that discourse and difference of views amongst party members is allowed, then this kind of view is one that the party desperately needs. If the foot-in-mouth types are the only ones that get heard, people won't get that point.
