I don't see how this has anything to do with arrogance. Of course Stephen Harper wants to remain Prime Minister; it would be stupid if he didn't. The thing that irritates me the most about all of this is the BQ (Bloc Quebecoise): they insist that the Canadian military should focus more on reconstruction in Kandahar, but how the hell are they supposed to do that when there's a war going on over there?
The Conservatives are the only party in Parliament that have a viable plan for victory in Afghanistan. It's the Conservatives who are dedicated to increasing defence spending and keeping our troops equipped while they take the fight to the Taliban. If we have a weak foreign policy, we will continue to be an irrelevant power with no influence around the world. To have a say in anything we have to prove that we're willing to commit our troops to dangerous missions. Most important, when we commit to a mission we have to show that we will actually follow through with it until the objective is completed.
I personally don't want another Liberal government undermining our military, especially when we are now more at risk against a terrorist attack than at any other point in our modern history.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
