gnu, has this annoyed you or something? I think, from your posts, that you might be slightly irritated.

Ah...yes. Loftier heights. First you become a lawyer. Then you become a politician. You will never have to wear cheap shoes again.

Flaherty was a classmate of mine from first grade to when he went to a private high school - he was always a bit aloof like he was destined for loftier heights than the riff-raff.

Bobad... yes... I think tomorrow is Thursday, innit?

From somewhere...

Jim Flaherty kept with tradition and purchased a new pair of shoes ahead of giving his annual budget speech. Wednesday afternoon Canada's Minister of Finance stopped by the Aldo store at the Rideau Centre in Ottawa and purchased new lace-up black shoes from Aldo for $138.98 (total included insoles and tax).

Fucker.

Hey, man...they're in massive debt to the bankers who were enabled to create this societal mess through a practice called "fractional reserve lending" (you are legally allowed to lend out 10 TIMES the money you have on deposit if you are a bank!!!) (it goes where? Back to the banks! And they lend it out 10 MORE TIMES!) (and that goes where? Back to the Banks...and they lend it out 10 MORE TIMES!) (etc....to infinity) Pyramid scheme!

That is what has put almost every country in the world into massive and unpayable public debt. To the BANKS!

And who pays the interest on that debt?

THE PUBLIC PAYS IT!!!!!

And how do we pay it? Through all kinds of taxes. Income tax is just the beginning. And through inflation. And through the privatization and dismantling of our social services. And through the decline of public infrastructure. And through downsizing the work force. And through job losses. And through union-busting.

Harper is complicit in supporting the fascist, criminal, oligarchic forces that created this incredible situation. He's just one of their little political errand boys, and he's well paid. Don't expect him to buy inexpensive shoes! I bet Obama's got some expensive shoes too.

Or is it Ontario's Dalton McGinty you were referring to? Well, he's just another little political errand boy, like Harper. Hudak would be another, and probably even worse. I think the real message of the bankers to all of us is this: "resistance is futile"

He bought new shoes today. 138 bucks. Saw the SOB smiling on the CBC news while he was paying for them. Fucker. 138 bucks for shoes he doesn't need but his road is paved with gold while Canucks suffer from coast to coast to coast to border? Oh dear me. I am beside myself. What an arrogant ignorant prick.

$138 for a new pair of shoes? The fucker! The ARROGANT fucker!

They raise their pensions and raise the age of retirement? The fuckers!

They... the fuckers!

I am a tad pissed off. I may write a god damned letter! (Canuck joke)
