Caution: political ranting with marginal mining content follows -->

I thot we had segued this into anti-mining liberals or Liberals, damned provincials, or incompetent and damned feduralz. But no, it's still L this and l that, as if they were somehow still capable of redemption... :) Occassionally, such as after a huge loss in the stock market, a rich relative not dying, or a bad hangover I just have to tell the complete truth about something, so here goes.. I knew you were expecting this.. I don't actually hate liberals. I just feel deeply sorry for their mothers and close relatives. You will have to admit one thing, given that you invest in mining and possibly in CDN mining, that the liberal and the Liberul is not your best, best buddy. No, notwithstanding the odd off the cuff statement by politicos about mining's grimy but nobly industrious aspect, the gritty perseverance of its workers and it's large, but begrudging contribution to the government coffers and foreign exchange dollars, the liberalis politicuss is doing everything in his considerable ensconsced power to phase out the smokestack industries of this country while losing the least votes in areas heavily dependent on such.

He cannot go into Newoundland and cuss, "damned cod tastes lousy, and the damned cod fishermen are violating mother sea.." no, no, that will not do, but he can make grand concessions to the Russian and Portugese trawler fleet whilst whistling loudly when asked about quotas to newfie fishermen. He has no intention of allowing sea harvests or seal harvests or hunting or fishing anywhere to continue. You can take pictures of the country, but you will simply have to live in the city and eat food from California where they don't mind the odd but of fishing and farming. And vote for Liberal, they're Canadian. that is the art of the politician. To speak one speech and implement his obvious agenda, au contraire. Ordinarily they call it doubletalk and don't invite one back for dinner. In Canada they call it genius and elect you to "save the country" for yet another four years of suffering.

What have the liberals ever done? Invented the GST. A hated tax that now gathers more money than any other tax. Invented the present flag of glory, which I have heard no one relate they think looks better than a mother in law. Invented government-bankrupting medicare at at time no one had trouble getting a doctor. Raised taxes in ever fiscal year since Pope Pius IX. etc.. etc... saints preserve us from more liberal in(ter)vention...
