Salut tout le monde!

Je devine que plusieurs d’entre vous connaissez sûrement déjà le site WWW Political Compass, un site sérieux qui vous permet de savoir vraiment où vous vous situez politiquement parlant sur la carte des idéologies.

J’aime beaucoup Political Compass car je trouve que c’est un site bien balancé et très objectif. De plus, il donne des résultats faciles à comprendre, plausibles et sérieux à toutes les fois que je l’utilise. C’est pourquoi j’y retourne de temps à autre pour savoir si mon idéologie politique a évolué depuis la dernière fois où j’ai passé le test. J’y ai donc récemment fait un tour, le 19 novembre dernier. Voici mes résultats, en bas. Ils seront ajoutés à la section "À propos de Keep Right" bientôt, afin que les gens qui visitent ce site puissent avoir une meilleure idée de mon idéologie politique.

Je vous encourage d’ailleurs fortement à passer le test si vous voulez, et à publier vos propres résultats dans la section "commentaires" de cet article. Ça ferait une discussion intéressante…

Voici mes résultats pour le 19 novembre dernier:

Hey there folks,

I’m guessing most of you probably already know about Political Compass, a serious, ideology-oriented website enabling you to actually know where you stand on the political map.

I really love Political Compass because I believe that they’re well-balanced and very objective. Furthermore, they provide me with easy to understand, accurate and serious results every time I pay them a visit. That’s why I usually go back there once in a while and re-take the test so that I know whether my ideology has evolved or not since the last time I took it. On november 19th, I went there and took the test again. My results are just above. They will also be added to the "About Keep Right" section when I have the time so that visitors to the blog can get a better grasp of how I think.

I also strongly encourage you to take the test for yourself and come back to publish your results here in this post’s "Comments" section. This would spark up an interesting discussion…

My results are just above, after the French version of this post.

Like pretty much every conservative blogger out there, I too have followed the ongoing Liberal Leadership Convention this weekend with great interest. And as I was watching both the candidates’ and the guests’ speeches (even if I didn’t watch all of them) as time went by, I began more and more to feel the smite and burn of the Liberal Party’s deeply arrogant mentality and the ideological distance along with the ever-wider discrepancy between my values and theirs.

Folks, after seeing what I’ve seen over the weekend in Montréal, I have to say something:

I DON’T THINK I COULD BE PROUDER TO BE A CONSERVATIVE NOW. I REALLY DON’T.

I hate the Liberal Party of Canada with all my guts. In fact, I LOATHE them. Pretty much always did. They rule arbitrarily. They are corrupt. They bash the U.S. for more popularity. They think they’re the only ones allowed to rule the country. They are the only ones who support "Canadian values", whatever that means. They don’t stand for anything good. They don’t stand for anything bad. They don’t stand for anything at all, which is why they get reelected all the time! Their positions change from election to election. They don’t have any qualms with supporting one thing at an election, and then supporting its exact opposite the next. Their arrogance knows no bounds.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again now: The Liberal Party represents everything I hate about Canada.

Fortunately, I think Harper - provided he does not screw up big time from now until the election - is not going to have any trouble defeating them and gaining a majority. Even some Liberals, unhappy with their party’s choice, think so.

The Liberals are in big trouble. Their Conservative-demonizing, self-congratulating, U.S.-bashing fest that they DARE call a convention sucked. Look at the Ken Dryden and Jean Chrétien speeches. More and more spewing of self-righteous anti-American hate Liberals are SO GOOD at. And to think they invited Howard Dean to speak for them! I felt ashamed for them. And what the hell is that? Stéphane Dion as leader? Oh, please…

Out of three serious possible contenders for the leadership, (along with Ignatieff and Rae) they chose the only one that represents the OLD Liberal Party of Jean Chrétien and Paul Martin (ughhh! Just thinking about these people makes me shiver!) and its corrupt, uncaring ways.

They chose the one that represents the most their stupid self-righteous mentality.

They chose a candidate that actually does NOT speak English (I still can’t get over this one, I’m a native French speaker and I couldn’t figure out what he said in English when not reading off of a teleprompter).

They chose one that has no personality (which is something they actually discredited the Conservatives for doing with Stephen Harper).

They chose a Kyoto-worshipping, (not that stupid, useless "treaty" rearing its ugly head again, please!) socialist, leftist unpopular policy wonk.

They chose Stéphane Dion because they thought he’d help them in Québec (which still would rather vote Conservative than Liberal) *NEWSFLASH* for Liberals: I am from Québec and Stéphane Dion is UNIVERSALLY-hated here. The Clarity Act, which he came up with, is perceived as a blatant federal incursion into Québec powers and is hated by sovereignists and federalists alike.

The Liberals are never going to learn. Ever. To them, being put in the opposition was but a short break from exercising power. "Hey, of course Canada’s "natural governing party" will come back to power!" People of the Liberal Party, there’s a reason you’re NOT IN POWER right now. We’re not going to tell you though, you’re going to have to figure it out…

Anyhoo.

This is laughable, and have you noticed just how freaking much the Liberal Broadcasting Corporation, er… the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation covered it? The last Conservative convention in Montréal didn’t actually enjoy even 10% of the coverage the Liberals had. Tell me again the CBC isn’t biased, leftists, and I’ll openly laugh in your face.

No, seriously folks:

‘Tis a great day to be a Conservative. Stand tall and proud, Tories!

For you, actually, DO stand for something…

Stephen, the coast is clear for your majority government. Please proceed.
