Never forget who you work for

I can’t stand Olivia Chow…or Jack Layton for that matter. Together they embody those most despicable qualities of any politician: arrogance and pretension.

When our provincial government announced that they were banning the use of Facebook at Queen’s Park (Ontario’s provincial house of government), Olivia Chow (who has approximately 1,000 Facebook “friends”) opined “what are my thousands of friends going to do now? How will they stay in touch with me?” DAMN I hate it when politicians spin their own self-serving electioneering into public service pleas. Gosh Olivia, what WILL your thousands of friends do? Chances are they’ll become hopelessly despondent and drink themselves to death. Some may leap from office towers, leaving behind scribbled notes proclaiming that a life without Olivia is no life at all. Others will pick up a scythe or bridle horse to plow and go to work tilling the fields, all the while believing that the cause of the worker must prevail, that even though the head dies the body lives on.

Or maybe they’ll do what the rest of us do and just ignore you.
