The NDP Are Pathetic

I seriously thought about whether I should post about this. At first, I shrugged my shoulders, took a bite our of my granny smith and dismissed it. After all, it has little to do with politics.

Then, I thought about it again. Political tactics have become so cynical and wicked these days that it has corroded modern politics to the point of it being nothing but a showcase in buffoonery.

And the do-goodin', let's nationalize evry'thing, create a massive big brother state, New Democratic Party are not above it. Come to think of it, there's nothing "new" in this democratic-socialist party. In fact, as of right now I ordain them the Old Democratic Party. For the record, a political party that feels the need to remind itself that it is democratic in its title should be looked upon with suspicion.

To me, what Tom Lukiwski said at a convivial party was distasteful and misguided. His words were, “homosexual faggots with dirt under their fingers who spread diseases."

Just imagine him that night after he uttered those words, "Wait. That didn't come out right. There was a Jew, Italian and Irishman..."

To his credit, Mr. Lukiwski apologized. We should all move on. It happened 17 years ago. The Liberals, not surprisingly, want him kicked out. Don't get me going on that bunch of scammers.

Remember when that NDP MP, whatshisforgettablename, stood up in Parliament and accused Dubya of "eating babies?" Yeah, how is that any better? Slandering a political leader based on conspiratorial hyperbole is every bit as depraved and retarded. Ah, but he was expressing is right to free speech!

Bah. As my Quebecois brethren say, "C'est quoi'll blague?"

Politics are made by hacks for hacks now. The spinsters and PR gurus rule the landscape just like marketing execs with little interest in sports preside over the world of athletics. It is what it is.

With regards to this "news," I would suggest we leave the muckraking to journalists and TMZ. How the NDP feels they can capitalize on this is beyond me. If they felt they wanted to make the point that persistent misogynist and racist attitudes still exists in the Reform/Conservative ranks, then best they use more updated and relevant information. Their strategy is as stale as flat beer. As old as a comedian who recycles 17 year-old jokes. Ha, ha. Get new material, Andrew.

I'm glad most blogs I've read have pasted them for doing it.

Hey, Jackie. Want my vote? Sell me on ideas. Get to work. Chop, chop.
