Lets all just get along

In my previous post I mused about the hypocrisy of some not all conservative bloggers. Then I went to edit the post for a typo and noticed that I had some comments in a old post that I had done. I had never noticed the comments before as I didn't think that anyone read this blog other than me, so I read the comments and they turned out to be the same comment twice.

The commenter accused me of rank hypocrisy! I was shocked so I reread the post in question and I can't see the hypocrisy but I'm willing to accept that the commenter sees some sort of hypocrisy on my part. I have tried to see all sides of polictical issues and this may have led to some postings that contradicted each other, the fact is that I sometimes change my mind about things. I continue to learn and my opinions develop; if that is rank hypocrisy then so be it.

I'm not sure what I said that set the commenter off but in the future I will try to be more understanding of other bloggers and I will watch the language I use in my comments and postings.

Hypocrisy

I have been reading a number of Conservative bloggers who use the term hypocrisy without seeming to understand its meaning, they attack other political parties (mainly the Liberals) but the Conservative Party and PMSH can do no wrong. Its like a cult and they have drunk the kool-aid.

So sad.

The Economy

I'm really shocked by how the economies in Canada and the United States are doing. The latest is that even with the obvious problems in the U.S. that the overall economic situation is good. In Canada the high commodity prices and the problems in the U.S. are pushing the dollar higher and higher. The manufacturing sector is hurting but not as badly as I expected.

Is it only a matter of time? I think so, but I hope that I'm wrong.
