 People are throwing around the word "corrupt" about the Martin

 There is nothing corrupt about the MARTIN liberal government which 
 took over a massive deficit from conservative Mulrooney and 
 brilliantly tamed it and made it into 8 balanced budget surpluses.  At 
 the same time he paid down more than $60 billion on the debt thus 
 freeing up $3 billion a year to be used in revenues. 
  
 There is nothing corrupt about a liberal party that has produced one 
 of the best economies in the world, and has also built up trust around 
 the world that we will live up to our promises.  Because of this trust 
 the world invests in Canada with no fear. 
  
 The only reason people are calling MARTIN and the liberals corrupt is 
 because of the politics of deception practised by Harper.  This is 
 where you have CORRUPTNESS. For over a year Harperites have been using 
 the word Corrupt about Martin and the liberals even though this is not 
 true.   He is following the politics of deception used by Bush and 
 also using the  Bush ruse that if you keep repeating something over 
 and over and over people will eventually believe you. 
  
 Be careful not to vote for Harper who is the really corrupt candidate 
 in this race. As well as using the politics of deception he is also 
 presenting himself to the public as something he is not. 
  
 Unfortunately, LAYTON, has been aligning himself with Harper more than 
 aligning himself with the liberals and this has left him contaminated, 
 so don't vote for him either. 
  
 I hope this has helped. :-)
