This started out as a comment over at Alison's place, about the fairly dismal display by the Liberals over the last week. Alison, thought it should go a little wider:
About time for the Red Libs to realize the Blue Dog Libs and the Bay Street Libs are going to use them hard and put them away wet forever.
They don't respect them, they plan to never respect them. They'll push them in front for the cameras during campaigns and keep them chained up in the basement the rest of the time.
Libs who believe in reproductive freedoms, a robust safety net, peace and economic justice will still be getting used and abused by what's left of the Liberal Party long after the rest of us are all dead.
George Orwell, cheerful sod that he was, said the defining image of the future would be a boot smashing into a face again and again forever.
For those on the left wing of the Canadian Liberal Party it's John Manley's smirk. For him it's the back of their heads.
