Big fucking deal. He didn't import drugs, he didn't kill someone while drunk (ala, Ted Kennedy), and he didn't use his power to get himself out of the situation. He took it like a man, and apologized in the end. The biggest part is that he hasn't done it again.
Right, he didn't kill someone.

That makes it ALL better.

All it would have taken was someone in the wrong place, at the wrong time, and he COULD have killed someone.... Because all drunk drivers really mean to kill someone when they do.

He didn't take it like a man, he CRIED like a baby and he tried to use his father's alcoholism as a fucking excuse. Sorry but I don't buy it.

I'm all for holding these people to a higher standard, but one must also be able to let go of their past. The good things outweigh the bad, imho.
Right, he got let go with a slap on the wrist and got to continue on as premier. He didn't even have to appear in court, nor did he even loose his fucking driver's license!! What kind of message does that send to people?

It's damn hard for me to hear him "Get tough" on crime when he got the exact opposite.


Fuck it. I'm voting Green. They're pro legalization and so am I.

They need a candidate in every riding. Plus the party is primarily young.

Anyone voting NDP should worry about the same, since the NDP has a mandate to run a proportional representation of candidates. A Vancouver district has a NDP candidate who is a female Filipino bus driver, I question the same, what does she know about politics? She was able to get the candidate position cause Filipinos and women needed proportional representation, so the NDP needed to run a candidate like her.

Most people don't even know what STV means. They probably randomly picked an answer when asked about STV.
