Kevin, some words of wisdom I received from my oldest brother this week:
</p>
"The Liberals campaign from the left and govern from the right."
</p>
It's election season again. They also promised us a nationalized child care service back when they were first elected... in 92 or whenever it was. Remember that little red book full of great sounding promises? Remember how it disappeared shortly after the campaign?
</p>
Besides, the party is run by the ruling elite. Sure, some MP or MLA might think that public healthcare is great. And sure, they might actually make promises about it. But that doesn't mean they'll do it. Just look at Gordon Campbell (and yes I do realize he doesn't necessarily represent other Liberal governments, but Paul Martin DID call him a "breath of fresh air" or some such nonsense) and how he acted with regards to BC Rail, the closing of hospitals and schools.

<br />Civiltech, no one here has a problem with you presenting your views, or tearing apart the views of others, regardless of what your or their political leanings are. However, for the sake of civilised discussion, we don't tolerate hate-based posts. This includes insults directed at others on the board.
<br />
<br />There is a FAQ (http://www.vivelecanada.ca/staticpages/index.php/FAQ) that you can refer to in order to get an idea of what is and is not appropriate on this website. You may find it more beneficial to actually argue without resorting to vast generalisations or name calling. Everyone on this website has a different opinion and we would generally like to think that those opinions are based on some type of worthwhile belief or ideology. That said, your posts of late have been little more than petty insults rather than constructive discussion.
<br />
<br />Under "Why is the site moderated?" in the FAQ:
<br />[QUOTE]
<br />3) To prevent the posting of racist, hate-based, discriminatory, off-topic, or otherwise inappropriate content.
<br />4) To ensure a high level of quality content.
<br />[/QUOTE]
<br />
<br />And the following, also from the FAQ:
<br />[QUOTE]
<br />My comment got deleted. Why?
<br />It's very rare for a comment to be deleted. However, we are providing a forum for safe, constructive debate and the exchange of ideas; if your comment got deleted, one of our moderators felt it was unacceptable (see above). Racist remarks will not be tolerated. Keep in mind that a thoughtful and well-written comment is received better than "OMG teh USA suxxx!!!!!1". You might want to post your comments again, but provide links to support your ideas.
