Random Inspiration

Once in a while I like to take a look at the on-line Recall David Emerson Petition (currently at 20,354 signatures and climbing) for a little inspiration.

Even we Conservative Albertans think the way you got into the party is devious and very dishonest. Shirley Runzer, #20,238

I truly think it is appaling that the Conservatives who were calling for change would allow this. Show that you are going to change our broken political system and start doing something about the very things you’ve been complaining about. Tim Downing, #9,005

It’s appalling that he hasn’t already resigned of his own accord. Benjamin Keen, #20,345

I am a constituent of Vancouver-Kingsway. Mr Emerson – You fundamentally misunderstand your role if you think it is our job to get you back to Ottawa in a position of power. An MP exists to serve the voters of their riding; the voters don’t exist to serve the needs of the MP. Nicholas Heap, #19,218

I voted for change. This is ‘change’ alright, a change in govt but not a change in the deceitful ways a govt can work… What is really bad is that I got fooled into believing that this man would at least begin his govt based in integrity and moral conduct as his promised to do in his campaigning. Instead, he jumps right in with hypocrisy, deceit and rationalizing to justify his unethical actions. Absolutely amazing. Richard Szpin, #8,981

Even many from within the Conservative party’s “base” deplore what Harper did and Emerson accepted. They aren’t going to forget these arrogant and undemocratic moves.
