Funny how that works... you don't find something if you are not looking for it.

Yeah- when BOTH parties piled on with that "reckless spend" ****- I was pretty aghast at the duplicity of that attack... cheap political points... What was it about Harper's tenure, that gets you to believe that he was a strong leader? Serious question- I had Harper hate for too long. I judge Harper on more than his economic record- it's his egregious abuse of power while PM, it's well documented. oddly enough, that **** Harper pulled, PALES in comparison to what's going on down south today... True, but JT didn't run on a platform of fiscal restraint. it still boggles the mind how he was upfront with his huge spending and won.

IIRC, the Cons were in complete denial that there was a global recession and that the stim package was forced upon them by the minority parties and then the Cons took full credit for the whole thing afterwards- it was weird. All of that would have been averted if he didn't cut the GST. Also- I think the Haper Cons are the only federal gorvenment to hit two recessions (2007 and 2015 basically book-ending his time as PM). Harper was one of the worst PMs in Canadian history when it come to the economy. I whole heartily agree with you on cutting personal income tax and keeping (dare I say increasing the GST?)- it's more fair.

The running joke about the Cons was that they were supposed good at balancing the budget- they never did. They were never supposed to. They cut the GST as a "stave the beast" move- cut off income to justify future cuts. They were able to "Justify" raising the Old age pension because of the reduction in GST. The GST cut was a brilliant maneuver by Harper (I disagree with it, but it was brilliant politically).

Yeah, that is a head-scratcher... Harper was WAY more experienced... I mean JT had some experience, being the son of a former PM and some small stints in politics- But Harper had loads more- you know, being a PM himself... Not sure what non-sense promises you are referring to. I am still pissed at the Libs dropping their crusade against FPtP. I was hoping that was the last election of FPtP.

Interesting video about Mueller.

Damn... those republicans are swine without a spine. Party before country- I hope a lot of them get ousted soon.

http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2018/03/16/outrage-over-new-yorker-mags-repulsive-body-shamping-president-trump.html First off... no one mentions "Emperor Has no Clothes"? That was the first thing I saw. Secondly- seriously... fauxnews bitching about body shaming... what happen to decrying leftist libs who talk about body shaming as snowflakes and such? There is no body shaming, it just looks that way because of trump's small hands, so the body looks out of proportion.

I reckon you guys missed the date of that article... and didn't read the article in it's entirety. To be fair though... Fox"news" is the best kind of fiction- made up **** to advance a story peppered with a bit of reality.
