ahhh, the backpedalling begins

Tories back off campaign pledge to show a surplus by 2014-15

Well isn't this a huge surprise. This party has shown they know how to spend, not balance budgets. Too bad for all the Canadian families who bought this promise to wait 4 or 5 years for their tax breaks while they hand billions to rich corporations.

They just don't stop...

Harper predicts pain at gas pumps should Layton grab share of power

Perhaps someone should tell Harper, that we're already seeing pain at the pumps, with him at the helm. But nothing has stopped the conservatives from tossing bullshit to scare voters into voting for them.

The latest nonsense was the flap over their smear campaign on Ignatieff, with the bogus photos of him dressed in US army fatigues. Of course predictably, they blamed it once again, on an overzealous staffer. It seems conservatives have a thing for blaming people for bogus things. Just like our pal Neo Conservative, who continually blamed me for threatening him with molotov cocktails etc., simply because he didn't agree with my opinions. I never did any such thing of course. But that doesn't seem to stop him, just like his buddies in Ottawa.

update:

Harper's gas-hike warning based on incorrect tweet

My. I'd say that has to sting, but I doubt that will stop them from continually shrieking this from the rooftops.
