the Liberal convention - a flop?

It's hard to imagine so many people coul come together and do and say so little.

legalize pot? Well, I guess there's an argument for it. But it tells me nothing about the principles of the party and has nothing to do with any of the major issues facing this country.

There is still, so far as one can tell, no leadership, no principle, no policy on anything of importance. What a spiritless bunch! No foreign policy. No social policy. No military policy No human rights policy.

Just legalizaing pot.

Reason and reality have been eroded to nearly nothing by superficiality, opportunism and ignorance. As I see it, the NDP are trying hard (and sincerely) to find an anchorage but silt's soft stuff.
