There's difference in approach between ...JimBob... There's difference in approach between the two, and a whole new realization of the war in the meantime. The revelations of Guantanimo in the past few years has also helped with the approach. Certainly, I cannot comment on the actions of past Ministers of National Safety - and there are things that I disagreed with in Anne's actions. That's part of being in a "big tent" party - there is room to disagree, and we don't approach everything in one specific ideological bent. Being in the middle is good... That's why we're called "moderates".WesternGrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06658358114507615351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28423454.post-26973657685473318922009-02-12T06:34:00.000-08:002009-02-12T06:34:00.000-08:00Whooee!

I'm glad to see the Grits are finally joining the other opposition parties in calling for Khadr's repatriation. <BR/><BR/>I can't help but think about the fact that, as reprehensible as Harper and the Cons have been, they merely continued the non-intervention policy carried out since Khadr's imprisonment at Guantanamo was first made known. Most of Khadr's tenure in Camp delta has been at a time when the Liberals were in power. <BR/><BR/>Until Bracko's election and the Merkans' vow to close the prison, the Liberals have been very quiet on Khadr. The cynic in me sees the latest action as belatedly recognizing a need for decency but only after being prompted to do so by the Merkan electorate. Tweedle Dee's chastising Tweedle Dum.<BR/><BR/>JBJimBobbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04603665575714484326noreply@blogger.com
