that's like saying people should forgive Bush for his fuckups since time has passed..

didn't Gordo force someone to resign because of a DUI before his DUI case?

Does the same apply for the NDP and all the damage they did to our economy? Gordo is not the best premier or person but he and his party are better then the alternatives at the moment. I'd love to have another viable choice but it doesn't exist. For my family and myself it doesn't really matter I'm probably leaving this Province next year for greener pastures.

I rather look at a person's body of work rather than focus on the one or two glaring (although retarded) mistakes an individual has made. Yet, I still don't see campbell as a very inspiring Premier to say the least. But what alternatives do we have? NDP? So its the top shit of the shit pile which is often the case in politics.

We are blessed ot be living in a province with lots of resources and great geographical location. Not many leaders can screw things up here. NDP, for sure, but Gordo has not done anything great. Put Gordo in a province that is struggling and it'll be a different story.

I don't know what it is about the bastard. I just dislike him. He's like one of those kids that get beat up at school because they look so retarded.

Bush had a terrible professional track record - I cannot seem to recall many of his personal blunders. Thus the comparison is apples and oranges.

This you can't compare him to gordo especially since bush is a complete fuck up

We have resources, but that's not to say that Alberta doesn't. As well, our forestry has been devastated due to the pine beetles, fishing has been up and down. One thing for sure, the film industry has been booming in Vancouver/BC, and the HST is just going to be helping industries like that.

Beat up our fair share of school kids in our day, have we?

:lol

funny, I actually went to school with one of Gordo's kid's. Mind you, he was in Gr 12, when I was in Gr 8.

i believe party dynamics can easily change as there are so many involved; an aged individual on the other hand requires a lot more

not really but kind of, sure. however not being able to recall "many" when comparing with one incident isn't fair either

A little.......... until I found god........... LOL.

Weren't you guys in grade school together?

I thought you were the one who lit God's fart to make the universe.

Actually, I'm not that old. I went to school with one of his sons, though. No, not that jesus guy. He was like the immaculate one. No, the one I hung out with was one of god's little bastards.

I tell ya, god is one horny dude. He created women, and let me tells ya, he has great taste in women. I asked him once, "Why don't you make all women yummy like the ones you hang out with?" He told me the ugly ones make his hot ones look that much better. Men appreciate his work better if he had some flawed ones. Plus, some men like bigger women with meat on 'em. Amen to that. LOL.

And now he announces a 15% income tax cut.

yeah surprised they can make that large a cut to obviously what's going to be a good sized portion of bc residents

Wow 15% less taxes!

silly me...

he must mean 15% less than what they already take for provincial taxes

so 15% cut from the 7.7% so 6.545%


i musta had a lil too much kool-aid when i first read it ;)

This is going to do nothing for Campbell in the polls. Just check out the comment boards - if you hated Campbell before, you still hate him now.

just because his approval rating is low doesnt mean he is doing a bad job, and just because someone's approval rating is right doesnt mean he is doing a good job.


Every political moves and decisions made will have winners and losers, as well as economic policies and such.
ex: People complains about taxes, so when government cut expenditures people will bitch about public services being cut etc.

To be honest, as much as i don't like campbell personally, but i would rather the liberal to continue to run the province. NDP fucked up big time in the past, and if they follow the same style and mindset on running this province (lower taxes, but increase expenditures is one example) we will be in the same debt holes we were in before. Plus what happened to china town area because of NDP's party policies still have me in doubt on their leadership abilities.

Campbell is a lying scumbag who hurts your feelings.

NDP hurts your pocketbook.

Given the choice, I choose hurt feelings!

yah it says $350 savings if making 50k LOL... HST is probably alot more per year.

Because he may not be necessarily thinking straight in regards to DUI but he sure makes damn good choices for our province and its citizens.

Another article plus a video explaining HST as well as the 15% income tax cut from CBC.

It's basically to late for Gordo to come back as premier anyways.
You MIGHT vote for Liberals in 2013. But no one will vote for Gordo.

Sometimes, it's not what you did was right, it's HOW you did it. HST isn't a bad concept, the way they they did it, was so mired in mistakes and bad posturing that it WILL defeat Liberals.

I'm coming back to this in 2013 and quote this when some other party wins.

I'll assume you're a single 20yo. The only impact HST has on you is some groceries and eating at restaurants, almost everything else was already taxed.

Thus this savings is a big win for many young people, it is too bad they do not understand that.

If it does not, then the approval rating is equal to the IQ of those polled.

Lowest income taxes and amoungst the lowest sales taxes - that's awesome if you understand it. :thumbsup:
