Stephane Dion is not evil.

October 13, 2008 · Posted in News, Personalities 

Nobody I know personally has ever questioned Dion’s credentials as an intelligent, loyal, and well-intentioned Canadian.

In fact, Stephen Harper was very clear during the debate that he didn’t question the motivation of any of his opponents. His position was that he simply disagreed with their plans.

But when Stephane Dion was told by the CBC’s Peter Mansbridge that he was certain that Harper was doing what “he thought” was best for the country, Stephane Dion interrupted Mr. Mansbridge to insist that Stephen Harper was doing bad things, knowingly and intentionally, to harm Canada.

I used to think elections in America were far dirtier than in Canada. Now we have John McCain defending Obama as a great American. We’ve had Obama recognizing John McCain as a war hero. Both urge their supporters not to “boo” their opponents. They have polite debates.

But in Canada we have a Prime Minister who is doing evil things to our country for the sake of evil alone.

And as we know from horror movies, “evil” is much stronger than “good” and must be stopped no matter what it takes! Sounds dangerous, eh. Sadly, it has become so.

Today, locally, we had a supporter’s tires slashed.

John McCain was right to tame the rhetoric of his most extreme supporters, but Dion is doing the opposite – encouraging hatred.

It’s high time that Stephane Dion come out and admit that Stephen Harper is a loyal Canadian who is doing what he thinks is best for the country. Obviously he disagrees with what is right, and that’s what election campaigns are supposed to be about.

    Stephane Dion is the kind of person who says:
    “I will not sling mud on that lying, secretive, destructive, arrogant, ideologue Stephen Harper . . . I leave that others”

    — meanwhile, Elizabeth May is chirping from his back pocket:

    “Well, I suppose Harper’s a good father, so he must just be an idiot. Can the man read? He knows nothing. He’s ignorant and if he does know then he’s doing this on purpose and he’s a bad, bad, man.”

    So, Stephane Dion is not evil, but he is duplicitous — but that’s the Liberal way.

    Oh, but the left promote evil by saying nothing. Will this make national news? Not likely, you know Conservatives are heartless, therefore they deserve no coverage, because they brought it on themselves.

    This notion of Stephen Harper/Conservatives being “evil” ultimately keeps the Liberals from connecting well with Canadians.

    Despite the fact that 30% plus of Canadians steadfastly support the Tories, the Liberals are so caught up in this over-the-top negative attitude toward their opponents that they cannot see how it leaves them outside the Canadian mainstream in terms of certain policies and issues.

    Please. They vitriol comes from both sides; let’s not pretend the CPC or its supporters are angels.

    My neighbourhood had *brake lines* cut in the cars of some Liberal supporters. That’s certainly comparable to tire slashing.
