The Crazy Rants of Samantha Burns

Thanks be to Macstansbury.org for inspiring me to write this article when he sent me this link, Cox and Forkum.

It is rather pitiful what Canadians are going to have to deal with for the next 55 days.

Yes, it's true. The politicians have got an idea!

An awful idea!

The politicians got a wonderful, awful idea!

From now until January 23, 2006, Canucks will have to endure mindless speeches and political messages from various political parties such as the Liberals, the Conservatives, Bloc Quebecois, and the New Democrats.

Much like the Grinch's tale, politicians have a similar frame of mind:

The Canadians' sanity, the politicians grinned, are the first things to go! Then they slithered and slunk, with a smile most unpleasant, they plotted their campaigns, to steal the media presence.

And, I think the stupidest thing about it all is that most Canadians are not happy with the Liberals and yet they continue to vote for them, which I think is for fear of change. And, in believing the lies.

Yes, our politically fake Santy Clauses will lie...

There's more money for health care to clean up the system, so we're taking it home to our workshop to fix 'em. We'll fix it up there, and we'll bring it back here.

One possibility with the election, is that the same thing will happen this time as it did last time we had such a long-running campaign. The last lengthy campaign was in 1979, which was 66 days long, and ended up in a re-election for Pierre Trudeau, who happened to be Liberal.

Gee, no kidding, Liberal, huh?

If you couldn't already tell, this election reminds me quite a bit of a certain holiday-themed movie, book, and tv Christmas special, which will likely be cut short or interrupted this year for some lousy political ads.

And, by lousy, I mean sh*tty, political ads (and by sh*tty, I mean cr*ppy, low budget, Canadian tv commercials, sh*tty) all through our festive season.

Yup, and favourites like How The Grinch Stole Christmas will likely be cut short for long-winded speeches on issues we know will never be dealt with properly by our future elected Prime Minister.

We won't likely get the chance to watch the cutting of the roast beast because it will be replaced by the cutting of the bullsh*t.

When considering the decision for a January election, truly, our politicians are much like the grinch, only their hearts did not grow 3 sizes that day.

And, much like the Whos of Whoville, British Columbians, always minorities in the voting polls, will be left with nothing, but the Who-hash. And, how appropriate for this drugged up province.

Despite their efforts, though, the grinches of Canada will not take our spirit away. We'll strive for a pleasant Christmas regardless of their grinch-ish-ly tactics.

Sorry politicians, but you'll have to try harder to keep Christmas from coming!
