    I’m not sure I understand what you’re saying. So you’re saying you think that the liberals know how to apply to their people better? I mean that doesn’t really make sense to me. I think most people understand what corruption is and can identify it when they see it, I just don’t think that the liberal supporters actually care and that gives the liberal party a lot more freedom to do things that would get the other two parties in trouble

      I’m saying that the LPC can opportunistically change their tune because they occupy the middle space. The Cons and NDP have fairly fixed places on the ideological and political right and left which bind them.

        But it has nothing to do with that. Policy is one thing but what we’re talking about here is corruption. Conservative and NDP voters are less tolerant of their party being corrupt then liberals are. Liberals will accept a high level of corruption in their party

        Case in point. Everybody lost their mind and screamed about how unfair it was including the liberals when Bev Oda bought a $14 glass of orange juice. But the liberals are insisting that it’s perfectly fine at Carney spent a million dollars on airline food last year because he works hard and deserves to eat well. Just on airline food for himself he spent more money than a family of four would spend on groceries in 50 years while telling Canadians they’re going to have to sacrifice.

        And that’s just fine with the liberals. But an expensive orange juice when it’s not a liberal? She had to resign.

            So if I say something you don’t like I’m ‘spamming’ ? LOL How very intolerant!

            But no, it was the $14 orange juice. It became a massive thing all on its own I was considered a sign that she was living it up at the taxpayers expense. But now those same people who screamed to the High Heavens about that aren’t batting an eye at Carney’s insane lavish food budget for airline food of all things

            And that is pure hypocrisy whether I’m in here three days or 3,000

              Eh I saw bunch of comments with bullshit in them from someone that looks like they get all their info from the Toronto Sun’s Facebook page.

              Bev Oda altered documents, look up the ‘not’ thing its wild, it wasn’t just the 16 dollar OJ, limousines, extra hotel rooms etc…
