Liberal Media "Whistling Past the Graveyard"

Well.

It would appear we're headed to an election.

And, it would appear, nothing is going to change.  The Liberals and NDP are going to vote down the government, and stop the business of government AGAIN for no good reason.  They have no chance to win.  There is no major problem with government facing Canadians at this point in time - and the budget presented was a ho-hum, stay the course affair.

But we're going to election anyway.

And the media - dominated by liberal types - are doing their best to "whistle past the graveyard". 

Pretending that everything is going to somehow be better for those with liberal sensibilities, while, knowing full well that there is no real hope of a Liberal victory.

The Globe and Mail for example, today gives us the headline, "Poll shows increasing voter skepticism about Harper government".  But, when you read through the article, in fact, what it tells us is that ..
"Most polls continue to show the Conservatives well ahead of the Liberals. An Ipsos-Reid poll released on Thursday has the Conservatives at 43-per-cent support, in majority-government territory, with the Liberals far behind at 24 per cent."
I guess time will tell.

And if the Liberals win the next election..  I'll eat my shorts.

I'm working from home today and caught some of the CBC News World coverage: it's pathetic in its opposition bias. Every single story is always from the perspective of the Ignatieff and his coalition partners, with the government always given second billing. The fat homely girl, who is Solomon's sidekick, thinks that it's so cool that she will be travelling with Layton during the campaign, being too simple to understand how her enthusiasm for one party is exactly what leads to the perception (and reality) of the mother corp's bias. The CBC ... biased, useless, in contempt of the Canadian taxpayer for not releasing their spending budgets as requested under FOI.
