If only we had seen this a week ago...

I was watching CNN today(well, not really watching, nobody WATCHES CNN, but I digress) and this ad came on. Democrats are pushing the Honest Leadership Act in Congress. What is this, you ask? It's the American version of the Stephen Harper's Accountability Act. But, hold on a second. Democrats and Liberals are the same in terms of values, as the Republicans and Conservatives are the same in values. (I'm generalizing, please bear with me) What does this mean? It means that, yet again, there is proof that corruption, fraud, bureacracy, are not partisan issues. The Americans ousted the Democrats in 1994 when they felt the government was corrupt. Today, they're tired of the constant scandal and abuse of power. The November 2006 Congressional election will see more Democrats in power, and they'll be touting the success of the "Honest Leadership Act". I only wish Canadians had of seen this a week ago. Perhaps one or two would have realized that Canada is no better with change, no better with a minority Conservative government. Money follows power. It's inevitable that things happen. Let's look to our neighbours to the south, and not let history repeat itself. Vote for your values, not campaign promise to clean up government. Just a little thought.
