And Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper warns us to expect the Leftist Opposition parties, the Liberals, NDP, Bloc and Greens, to be as nasty as ever, throwing whatever they can at the Conservatives... just like they always have.
This means that there'll be incidents like, say, Ultra-Far-Left-Wing assholes pulling stuffed purple dinosaurs out of gym bags to spew hatred against peoples' religious faith for political gain... that sort of thing... and even worse!
“I anticipate a very nasty, personal attack campaign,” Mr. Harper said Saturday in an interview with CTV. “That's what the opposition's done in the past.
“Whether Canadians agree with what we're doing or not, I don't think they're going to believe the kind of personal attacks and scare tactics we've seen in the past.”
This is where bloggers like myself come in. As the mainstream media is going to naturally, as always, help the Leftist Opposition to hurt the Tories, it's up to us to deal with the Goebbelian Big-Lie Leftist smears against the Conservatives.
It's about fighting fire with fire.
I've been saying for years now that this is a necessary part of political campaigning, that it has to be done. Because if the good guys, the Conservatives, let the bad guys, the Leftists, manipulate and grossly distort the public's perception of reality with their absurd charges and defamations against the Conservatives, then the bad guys, the Leftists, will win.
The mainstream media ought to be on notice that if they refuse to do their job and just that, and in a fair and balanced fashion, then they're going to make the bloggers stronger, more relevant and more trusted in relation. After all, the MSM has already lost a lot of peoples' trust and their patronage, because the MSM hasn't gotten the message that the People are sick and tired of the MSM being a mouthpiece for the Left and so on. The MSM only reports what they want to report, regardless of newsworthiness, factuality, relevance, etc. They often cover up big stories so as to avoid offending certain groups with the inconvenient truth, such as the Chinese Communist Party's practice of harvesting organs from live human subjects, especially Falun Gong practitioners. And then there's the MSM's dhimmitude, its submission to domestic radical Islamists who demand that the truth about their agenda not be reported.
We bloggers must do our part to ensure that the Left doesn't come back to power. Canada can't afford any more Leftism.
When there's news relevant to the election, but the MSM won't report it, then the bloggers have a duty to do it. And when the MSM engages in partisan/ideological spinnery, the bloggers have a responsibility to expose it.
Ok now... we go kick ass, eh!
