I don't know why all you Christy cheerleaders are so afraid of the NDP that you have to write letters to BC Liberal candidates, trashing an NDP candidate. What is the purpose of this? Have you no idea how bad that makes you look? Not just in the eyes of the NDP, but the whole province? You could also end up with a defamation lawsuit on your hands.

There is no doubt in my mind that all Okanagan ridings will end up with the same old corrupt BC Liberal candidates as winners, because that's just how the Okanagan Valley rolls, so why are you even putting yourselves in jeopardy by saying and doing all these outrageous things? Just go and vote for your BC Liberal candidate and stop being so silly.

It's probably a bit of a moot point, because I can't imagine ANY scenario where the NDP would win Kelowna-Mission, but isn't that letter a bit slanderous? After all, the author doesn't provide any proof of what he says. How do we know it isn't all a pack of lies?

Do you realize that some of your ranting is getting pretty close to slander?

Steve Thompson is from one of the oldest families in Kelowna, and I can't think of a thing that would qualify him as deserving of being called corrupt.

Maybe you need to take a deep breath, get off your soapbox, and go take a good long look in the mirror, then think about all the unsubstantiated crap you've posted, that certainly qualifies as putting yourself in jeopardy.

You also assume way too much, and most of the time are way off the mark.

I'm not a Christy cheerleader, but I do think the NDP is awful. Their current platform is a dumpster fire. It's really not that hard to grasp. The NDP is a joke and should be disbanded.

No, the NDP does. Because they are disgusting.

ah yes, the leftist/NDP dream come true - threaten everyone with some kind of vile disgusting threats to keep them from continuing to discuss how vile and disgusting the NDP are. Just like Chavez in Venezuela, all you NDP'ers really dream about is shutting down any opposing opinion that conflicts with your evil agendas. Shame on you for writing this anti-Canadian anti-freedom filth. Shame indeed.

Except those like me.

And why is someone making veiled threats against you?

Thanks GB. I was a little concerned you wouldn't oblige.

Christy's Clowns (to the tune of 'Kathy's Clown):

Don't want your lies anymore,
Don't want excuses,that's for sure
I laugh each time
I hear this sound,
"Here they come, they're Christy's clowns."

Why can't they stand tall?
Why must they always crawl?
When the know she's telling lies
And they hear them all the time,
They have no sense at all.

Don't want your lies anymore
Don't want excuses, that's for sure
I laugh each time
I hear this sound,
"Here they come, they're Christy's clowns."

When I see them shed a tear
When she adds more tax to beer
I just think it's kind of sad
That she's treating them so bad
And they don't even care.

Don't want your lies anymore,
Don't want excuses, that's for sure,
I laugh each time
I hear this sound,
"Here they come, they're Christy's clowns."

Everyone except the Christy Cheerleaders would see the humour in that. Sorry you belong to the humourless group.

(Twelve years old? I wish! Maybe I'd live long enough to see some political party other than the Socred/BC Liberals win a few seats in the Okanagan so the residents could say they are no longer beyond hope.)

GB - there is one thing about the NDP we disagree on. I don't see them as "leftist".

True "leftists" are concerned about policies that are really going to make sense to help people out. I'm good with that, not everything in life can be about maximizing profits etc.

The NDP don't get that. Why? Because they aren't "leftists". 1970s "unionist" bosses is more like it. Suck everybody in by promising the moon, then deliver diddly, except they get union dues to milk for themselves. The good ole Jimmy Hoffa types. Notice Horgan has never really had a real job? Notice that Adrian Dix has never had a real job? They've done pretty well for themselves for never having had real jobs.

The Greens are "leftist" and environmentalist. So I find some good policies in their platform. The BC Libs have some good policies in their platform. The NDP? Their platform is riddled with bad and "elastic" policy that just tries to say "you can have everything you want for free" (ya right, a free lunch).
The middle path - everything in moderation, and everything in its time and order.
