  Wow, I almost feel bad for them. Still though, they knew that an &lt;br&gt; election was coming for months. Their failure to prepare, much like &lt;br&gt; Dion&#39;s failure to secure a proper campaign jet, is nothing but their own &lt;br&gt; fault.

  He hasn&#39;t been clear on his position at all. Jack Layton has flip &lt;br&gt; flopped on his support for Afghanistan: &lt;br&gt; &amp;quot;The NDP leader praised Chief of Defence Staff Rick Hillier in July &lt;br&gt; 2005, for giving Canadians the straight goods about the dangerous new &lt;br&gt; assignment in Kandahar that the then-Liberal government had chosen for

  You clipped my question in your reply, Herr Doktor. I will repeat for &lt;br&gt; your benefit: &lt;br&gt; And when &amp;quot;has&amp;quot; there been a set election date in October? What was that &lt;br&gt; trend, Herr Doktor? &lt;br&gt; Now kindly answer the question.

  Hopefully this costly and futile war of aggression will be front and &lt;br&gt; centre in the upcoming election. I hope Jack Layton (the only leader &lt;br&gt; to clearly call for a pullout) benefits.

  I used to want a EEE senate, but I look at it this way. &lt;br&gt; Each senator costs $150K per year average. Add at least $250K for travel &lt;br&gt; and accommodation charges. Which makes them $400K expenses. &lt;br&gt; Given the senate has never effectively blocked legislation in the last 50 &lt;br&gt; years, the senate seems pretty extravagant. Total cost of at least $50M

  Which is better than Dion, says a lot. Dion was part of the government that &lt;br&gt; created ad-scam (Sponsorship scandal). &lt;br&gt; They are all corrupt and expect our votes. Hopeful more Canadians will get &lt;br&gt; out to vote for parties that are not the NDP, Lib and Cons so we can get &lt;br&gt; some serious change and not just lies, corruption and bribery.
