Alberta #Kudatah

[grassfarmer]

Things are awfully quiet on here about the other Alberta right-wing wing-nut antics this week. Where are all the PC, Wildrose and Jokemedia supporters of George Clark?
TOM you like being in front of the cameras - were you one of the faithful handful right beside George in the Walmart parking lot?

Is somebody thinking of a coup d'etat?

[grassfarmer]

Yes, one of the redneck geniuses thought that was how you spelled it.

Nobody with a still functioning brain is getting within 500 miles of an NDP party membership. We don t want a changed NDP, we just want the NDP gone. There is a simple solution. Anyone who works for the government does not get the right to vote until they leave government employment. After all an election has to be about more than the public sector union pay increases.

Redneck idea #2. Withhold the vote from those who don't agree with your political views.

Should farmers also be excluded from voting because they might vote for a party offering favourable agricultural policies?

Possibly, if those farmer derived their entire income from the taxpayer.

If we're excluding people from voting, lets start with condescending elitists who like to call their neighbours Rednecks.

Well said Farmranger. Interesting to note that he emigrated to Canada from a country that the latest statistics show farmers receiving 74% of their income in the form of subsidies from the EU. Not sure why he despises those of us that lean center right!?

[blackpowder]

Phew! Glad somebody said it.

Its not all about who voted NDP, its about what government blew it. A government in power for decades ought to know how not to piss off the masses. Their advisors failed them.

How about those condescending elitists who like to call their neighbours Village Idiots? Guess that's different hey?

Seriously though what is the point of this line of thinking? 2014 electorate lists show 2,342,550 voters registered. The latest figures I could find show 346,520 public sector employees so under 15% of the voter role. Not like its the majority who can steer Government direction and if it had been don't you think they would have controlled previous Governments? Like the Kudatah mastermind's project this thinking doesn't make sense.
