Thiefing Liberals

Today the media ban was partially lifted on the sponsorship scandal. We learned that cash donations were given to the Liberal party and election volunteers were put on payrolls in exchange for sponsorship contracts. Thus the Liberals used this exchange as a way to funnel millions of taxpayer dollars back into their own party. Sure makes funding a large election campaign very easy.

I think this could possibly destroy the Liberal party come next election, which could happen sooner than we think. Now I am not sure who I would rather have in power, a bunch of crooks who steal from the people, or the conservatives. We all know what the conservatives can do in 4 years, but do we really want a bunch of theifs running our government? A government is suppose to look after a countries best interests, and take care of the peoples money (taxes), not put it in their back pockets. Hopefully the NDP can pickup a lot of support from this. To do so they will need to start getting their name out there, and show their integrity, not to mention drop the monkey off their back regarding money management.

Next few months are going to be very interesting seeing how this all plays out.
