Goes back to how he was first thrust on the scene with a great big push by his dad who was very instrumental in the party choosing Timmie Boy to run for Ontario MP. Old Tim rode in on Mike Harris' coattails when he was elected to our local riding. He was a back bencher until Harris plucked him from obscurity and he became the heir apparent (a marriage into a powerful Conservative family helped) for the Harris Doctrine. He also abandoned his riding for a greener (as in money,) more opportunistic riding.Too bad, Timmie screwed up a fairly sure thing. His lack of political knowledge (what can you expect from a box store manager and political flunky) did him and his party in, not once, but twice! Could not close the deal and he was rightfully thrown by the wayside. <br /><br />(Apologies to all box store managers)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16495038420778835026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2734542855080671064.post-69603245002642139912015-09-14T20:02:34.567-04:002015-09-14T20:02:34.567-04:00Had to laugh when old Tim Hudak tried to piggyback...Had to laugh when old Tim Hudak tried to piggyback on the popularity of Face book back in his first attempt at the premiers job. Some overpaid shlub came up with the slogan "Changebook" to describe the new and improved changes this Conservative premier wanna be would put in place if elected. Changebook.!! You gotta wonder where these political shut inns get their inspirations. Oh! Maybe copying someone elses idea? Look where that got him. Now whos stuck with another few years of that Liberal with the sex ed agenda as a distraction. Facebook? Changebook? Whateverbook? Old Tim fades into obscurity, Obscuritybook.

Facebook, it isnt the first time, nor likely the last, that a technology was invented, put out for public use, then used by the people to fight one another. Facebook was originally put together for people to find old friends from highschool. Facebook== Yearbook, get it? Old highschool book of faces? Might have been better if it had stayed that way. There are other sites that are more hatefull. Lets hope they dont blossom to the monster size of FB. We will be in REAL trouble then. Would make that bit of spitefull gossip on Facebook look like a couple of bitter old drunks fighting over the last jelly donut in comparison.James Sandersnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2734542855080671064.post-51738016969087243412015-09-14T07:36:06.878-04:002015-09-14T07:36:06.878-04:00FE's so called ruling elite/the ol boys networ... FE's so called ruling elite/the ol boys network, who actually believe that it is their right to rape the town for their own profit, have utilized these dregs of society to do their dirty work. It's not a new idea as Adolph Hitler did the same in WWll. Most of his top people where considered criminals after the war and most were hung. <br /><br /> Every society has this unfortunate element to it but it is only when these lowlife's feel legitimized that they actually become active. That is the case here as it has somehow, in some twisted way, become cool to actively support stupidity and borderline criminality at the very large expense to the greater good of the town. <br /><br /> Someone should write a book, " The Self Destructive Fort Erie Mindset" or alternatively "Screwing Yourself for Their Profit Fort Erie Style". <br /><br /> Meanwhile the watchdogs of society, the Press remain silent or worse, complicit.CorruptionFighternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2734542855080671064.post-67806635355389328402015-09-14T07:34:10.091-04:002015-09-14T07:34:10.091-04:00I feel sad that the Hii-Lites page has been turned...I feel sad that the Hii-Lites page has been turned into a bully fest. <br /><br />My blog is to try to bring what is my truth to light. The local newspapers do not IMHO. I have engaged in some nasty swipes on my blog. I felt that they deserved it. A blog is a whole lot different than a Facebook page though.
