Totally without context politics!

Asked about his time with [The Prime Minister] at the National Citizens Coalition, Nicholls said: "I worked with Stephen Harper for five years and never once did he in that time eat a baby."

 
Oh, fine. Context.

I'm just trying to figure out the continuing fascination with politicians' dietary habits, myself. Although "Vote Conservative - We Don't Eat Babies!" would at least promise a more entertaining spate of ads next time around.

This is true.

I'm biased for sure, and my opinion is probably influenced even more by a friend of mine who seemed pretty convinced that Paul Martin was God. We had a good discussion about politics on my livejournal during election season, though. It's still one of the highlights that justifies my continued existence on here.

That said, I sway towards the Conservative side of things in my own political beliefs (though there are a lot of things that seem to be somehow traditionally associated with Liberal policy that I agree with, so it's hard to say), but I am glad that not everyone voted for them. I personally think they deserved a minority, but I'm not so certain about what they would have done in a majority. Just... the campaign thing really bugged me. I tried to write something about it on here, but I got half-way through it, had to do something else, and then came back and realized it was exactly the sort of thing I had promised myself _not_ to write on here.

Oh well.
