Time and time again I rail against what over half a century of NDP rule has done to our province. It's still a fantastic place to live and work (if you can find a job); it's just too bad that nobody lives here because of their ridiculous policies. In yet another example of their supreme arrogance as they continually fuck up the province, they fixed a poll on their idiotic (not to mention completely partisan and paid for by the taxpayers) waste of money that is the Raise a Flag website. Calvert says the poll was manipulated, but that's a bald-faced lie: they just didn't like the results. If the poll really was broken and didn't represent the votes of the people, as they say, you would think they could just take it down with a message saying the system is going to be fixed to prevent such problems. Instead, they decided to just drop the votes altogether and present results showing the response WAY in their favour.
I build websites for a living and I live and breathe the Internet - trust me, there is absolutely no way the NDP can talk themselves out of this one. They screwed up big time and nothing less than an apology to the people of this province is in order. On the whole, it's conduct very unbecoming of a minister, Mr. Calvert!
I'm changing my voting habits as of this minute. Rather than vote for who I feel is the best candidate or belongs to the best (read: least worse) party, I will vote for the candidate in my riding that has the highest poll numbers that isn't a member of the NDP. I no longer care who's in office - it just can't be them. Fuck Centrism up its stupid ass, these SKoviets have to go.
Can you blame him? You're talking about things that happened a loooong time ago.
While casting Brad Wall as a criminal in one fell swoop might suit your purposes, it's nothing more than laziness on your part. His employment as a ministerial assistant ("executive" or not) and his participation in the party's politics doesn't mean that he had anything to do with the kickback scandal. Don't take my word for it, though - there was a giant criminal investigation into the matter and the facts are there for you to read. Besides, he was elected himself for the first time almost 10 years after all that stuff with the Grant Devine government went down. I'm certainly no Sask Party booster, but, frankly, there are enough legitimate reasons to criticize the Sask Party without chasing ghosts.
I normally don't allow "anonymous" comments like yours but thought it would be fun to make light of your self-righteous bullshit. Disagree? Start attaching a name to your comments.
P.S. - I hope Vancouver is treating you well. While you probably had legitimate reasons to leave, it sounds like you had some imaginary ones as well.
So let me clarify my position for those of us who are a bit "slow" (read: from Vancouver)........."for my entire adult life I have watched the NDP pound Saskatchewan in the ass.
Now I also agree with you that nearly every political party in Saskatchewan’s history has pretty much shit the bed. This brings us full circle to the question "who would you rather vote for? ”A giant douche? ….Or a turd sandwich? I want my answer!
P.S. I think I also inadvertently burned Bernie on this one.....sweet. two birds, one stone!
So when its time to vote, who would you prefer? A giant douche, a turd sandwich, or a rug soaked in cat pee.
My vote is for the giant douche, because regular ones are awesome!
