svend, svend, svend
I couldn't agree more with the most recent editorial in Maclean's magazine "Svend Him Packing: Will the voters of Vancouver Centre please do the rest of Canada a favour?" (a little something my wife picked up for me as an early Christmas gift, thanks honey!).
Here is a little quip from the article:
...principled dissent is fine. Civil disobedience, too, has its place. But that's not what Robinson is about. He's a self-aggrandizing lout with a disdain for parliamentary and judicial institutions.
As far as I'm concerned we have enough corruption in our government as it is; we have no need to reelect fools who find themselves with the compulsion to stick gaudy a 20,000+ dollar ring into his or her pocket. What kind of message are we sending to our political leaders if we justify that kind of behaviour with another mandate?
