Now's the time for all....
.... Good Liberals to come together. That is they can afford the $125.00.Everyone on the Lib mailing list, and others that the Vice-President of Funding can think of, will be soon getting the invite on the left. Lib bigwigs will be speaking to the faithful. Any excuse for the good Senator to use his "cottage" at the bottom of Bagot St. But the topic should be enlightening to policy wonks. The exception should be the results of the research that Gerard Kennedy has been doing on the "Stimulus" figures: who got what and how much has been given to the Tory faithful etc.
As an observer I find it fascinating that this event comes a month or so after a particulaly brutal AGM where long standing officers, identified with the losing side in the Nomination battle either elected not to run, withdraw or were beaten at the polls by a side run by TeamRudd, determined to have things their way. The upshot is that hard feelings are still there, an executive has been elected dominated by persons from the West and some people do not feel welcome in their party. Not a good harbinger for an expected election.
But back to the poster, click on the image to enlarge it, if you are a Liberal and want to hear pearls of wisdom delivered from the mount, pay $125.00, have some munchies sip some wine and have a good Liberal time.

There waso elections held at the Liberal AGM, so no one was beaten bu anyone. Wether or not certain individuals may have been is irrelavent as again there were no elections held.
The Federal Liberal Excecutive has seats that are determined by geography so there are still the excact same seat allotments.
Not all are currently filled(not just eastern) but thy will be in due course with individuals who live in thosecatchment areas. So the eastern area of the riding has the same seats alloted to it that it always has.
I guess this post got you so mad your fingers couldn't hit the keys fast enough, either that you decided to disguise your syntax with deliberate mistakes, either way i get the message you think that the facts were wrong

"There were no elections held at the AGM" I guess you didn't need one after all the withdrawals and nomination refusals. The objective was achieved - TeamRudd is now in charge!
Actually keyboard battery was failing and did not realize it sorry lol. The post should have read " There were no elections held at the last Federal LIberal AGM.
Gerard Kennedy has come a long way since his early days as just another anti poverty activist struggling for justice, which is what he was when I first met him at a conference in Winnipeg in '88.
He's not the first person I know to think he will find justice with the Liberal party, but I am still not convinced. I wonder what he really thinks of the current state of his party, although I doubt he will be telling any of it to the faithful here.
Those jokers should have made him party leader way back when. He may have been short of experience but he might just have had the kind of vision and drive to craft his party into a real alternative to the tories. Too late now, what a missed opportunity.
Oh, if only...
What a great resource!
