Go Blue, Not Green

Even with all my lesson planning for school, I am writing this blog first! I find it extremely sad, that this blog is filled with stuff about the American election and little about Canada. Sen once told me that the American election surpasses the Canadian election for the simple fact that what happens in the US, has greater ramifications than picking our own government! I won’t go into that debate today…

Steven Harper. Here is a man that didn’t promise much, but ended up leader regardless. Why is that? My guess, is that people are tired of being lied to, fed up with being told so many things, only to see that they never take place. This is what happened to the Liberals. They promised and promised and promised, but failed to deliver. Harper on the other hand made few promises, i.e. lowering the GST by one percent and accomplished it. People don’t need to be promised the world, what people want are sound policies, to which their country will grow ever stronger. This is the reason why I support Republicans in the south. In the current economic crisis, I don’t think tax breaks are feasible. Obama, is simply telling people what they want to hear, so that they will vote for him. I just want people to look at Harper as a fine example of how to run a country. At first, I was skeptical of a right wing political party ruling our great nation, but I believe that under Harper’s leadership, Canada has become an even better nation.

The only party that truly pisses me off are the Greens. I honestly don’t care who wins the US elections, but I never in my lifetime want the Greens to win. I hate people who speak doom and gloom about our environment, and argue that we are killing the Earth. Greenhouse gas is good. Why, because plants need it. The more greenhouse gas, the more plants will thrive. There are more trees in North America, than ever in history. Why? Because its simply not profitable to cut down trees for no reason. Plus, these days, if we cut down one tree, we plant 2-3 more trees in its place, and the extra greenhouse gases helps them to grow! Go up north to Thunder Bay, and all you will see are trees. There are more trees in Canada than there are Canadians. The Greens just throw us Bullshit facts, and use scare tactics to get people to vote. I am so happy to live in a country where the Green Party’s leader, loses in an election. For more information about that contradicts the environmental movement, please watch an episode 5 Season 2 of Pen and Teller’s Bullshit! There is a counter argument to the Greens, and I am tired that I have to take it up the ass, when ever an environmentalist speaks. What makes them right and not me, and why do we have to all politically correct now about green initiatives? I’ll write a more concrete post on this position, in the near future. My next post will be on TV, to help diversify this blog.
