It looks like the bulls may soon be on parade yet again. Count Michael "Iggy" Ignatieff and the non Conservative Conservative Stephen Harper are talking smack like they are in some kind of pre-fight press conference a la Mike Tyson/Lennox Lewis. Ok ok, maybe not with all the expletives and hysteria but nonetheless it's entertaining in it's own right. Harper says that if the Liberals want to "fight" an election, the Cons are ready. The issue? None other than Employment Insurance, or perhaps its because Iggy is doing well in the polls, hmm, talk about timing eh. Just what we need, another election, this dysfunctional parliament should have it's own variety show because the comedy is top notch, however, I do not believe that we need to go to the polls again.

Follow up:

People are growing increasingly weary over the games being played in parliament and if Iggy or Harper forces another election, it may very well backfire on both of them, and to force an election over EI, the system that the Liberals pooched back in the 90's, not so smart me thinks. People remember, or at least I hope they would, but then again, the sadistic folks of Ontario voted McGuinty in a second time after bending us over the first time. That being said, bring on the debates, I look forward to seeing Elizabeth May debate with the old boys club again, that is, if they'd be so kind to allow her presence this time around without a fuss. Of course this is all speculation and no election has actually been called but ya never know with this type of verbal sparring going on.
