Are Liberals Asking For A Bailout For Political Attack Ads?

It's not my budget, it is Harpers' budget. It is his problem.  Who has been repeating this since December 2008?
 

“The ‘gotcha' stuff is out of control,” says the Liberal. “They bring in all these nerdy keener kids from campus and it's some kind of game to them. They're turning politics into pro wrestling.” The media concentrates on the top, Ignatieff, and on the Hill, but disenchanted Liberals say there is a story to be told far from the now-silenced sound bites of the Centre Block.



Are Liberals asking taxpayers to be on the hook for hiring more fine art majors, creative writing graduates, desktop publishing students to be hired by the Liberal war room?





Background:
For the March 4 federal budget, the Liberals propose:
Temporary financial incentives for firms that hire young Canadians, such as new graduates from universities, colleges or apprenticeships. This measure is meant to address a crisis in youth unemployment, which at 16 per cent is nearly double the national average. Toronto Star
Since becoming the leader of the opposition the Liberals have failed to introduce ANY employment policy inside the HOC. In twelve months they have made a large numbers of presentations at fundraising events. Has the Liberal Party chosen to undermine democracy through divisive relentless attack ads?
