   There is nothing more I would like to see than Harpo and Flathery loose   
   their seats....   
      
   But that being said, another round of Liberal corruption and spending isn't   
   the answer either. Especially from Count Iggy, self proclaimed USA is his   
   country and fellow Obama follower and graduate of Harvard, the same people   
   who broght us GM & Chrysler bankruptcies.   
      
   Canada can't lead squat with the burden placed on the working middle class.   
   The working middle class has taxes coming from all directions that surpress   
   their wealth and return from their efforts. They fork out GST/PST, utility   
   taxes, gasoline and income taxes at an obscene rate while Ottawa racks up   
   credit-card debt for banks and corporations.   
      
   Canada will be lucky to see the end of the recession in a decade. Like   
   1982, it will take some time before the economy comes back. People aught to   
   get used to it.\   
      
   It is clear to me, Canada needs a better choice in leadership. Which scum   
   bag are you voting for?
