I prefer to read print or via online my information from several sources.<br /><br />TV clips dwell on negative behaviour too much and have little in perspective in covering the current issues in any balanced manner.<br /><br />If you look at the TV shows being watched very few News programs make top 30. Nationally CTV is first and than Global.<br /><br />The current affairs " News" shows like PP, QP, or anything on the CBC beyond Hockey, Dragon's Den, American Gameshows is not widely viewed. I also don't watch TMZ.<br /><br />Canadian views don't watch or care to see cranky old people talk about other old cranky people in Ottawa who can't get along.<br /><br />We already know most politicans stink and won't make a serious decision if they suspect it might backfire on getting them re-elected.<br /><br />The self-interest (self preservation) rule is number one.<br /><br />Most of us are too cynical to get caught up on the Vision chicken in every pot speeches.CanadianSensehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01010880162544507668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7723107545282807528.post-41267800337460104702010-03-15T18:57:17.841-04:002010-03-15T18:57:17.841-04:00On Power and Politics this topic came up

I understand that there is a specific historical political movement, but as a Progressive Conservative, I always associated the P-word with progress, or "forward thinking". <br /><br />But that's just me. I would assume that there are ties between "progressive" and "protestant".The_Icemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16887740772649135851noreply@blogger.com
