Strangest debate ever!

-Debate moderator needs a whip and a chip on his shoulder to take control of this bull stampede. This is a free for all like elementary students arguing about sports.

-Round table discussion format makes it seem that Harper is literally being attacked from all angles. (Smug face can only take him so far against the onslaught). It’s like France 1944 all over again. A multitude of nations attacking the stronghold of the Nazis. Harper is not a Nazi and should not be compared to one.

-Harper counters economy issues by attacking Dion’s Carbon Tax and uses the previous economic growth to bolster his side. Attacking Dion is like shooting an elk with two broken legs and tread marks on its ribs. Harper is somehow able to avoid the issue of terror that might be the future of Canada’s economy with a dead and dormant US cousin.

-Duceppe attacks Harper on oil tax breaks for big business

-May “As a woman, as a single mother, I do understand what economic measures are all about” AND THERE IT IS! Bringing out the estrogen angle. I warned about this.

Question about bailout plan for Canada’s economy like Americans are attempting

-Duceppes says no way (Unless its for Quebec of course wink wink)

-Dion says nothing but lips still move

-Layton’s translator is turning me on. I think he’s flirting with me indirectly through the cover of a debate. Its cute. But I’m not ready for a relationship the bilingual man will surely desire.

-Harper thinks economy rock solid and so are our banks. Harper thinks taxes will create recession and deficit. He forgets the last time his government was in majority they ran a huge deficit and Liberals had to clean up through the use of taxes...

-Dion talks about contingency fund or cushion that Harper has taken away (Tax cuts have to come from somewhere). Dion brings about Harper’s de-regulation plans and how that is the problem in banking in the U.S. G-ranical becomes scared.

-Duceppe thinks manufacturing should get cuts not oil(I wonder why that is? West = Oil vs Quebec= manufacturing).
