Bad Moon Rising

(A fictional opinion piece story(or is it) by Grant G)


I can`t fight this feeling anymore, the Gordon Campbell Government is going to be removed through recall, it`s not a matter of if, the clock is running, the public has tuned out Colin Hansen, Gordon Campbell is despised, Kevin Falcon is a dirt bag and the masses know this to be true, Shirley Bond and Pat Bell will never win another election, nor will Mcdiarmid, in fact the only B.C. Liberals who stand a slim chance of surviving another election are those in the bible belt.

"Ignorance is Bliss" I have said it many times, Gordon Campbell is criminally insane, he knows he is a dead duck politically, I welcome his demise and relegation into the abyss of forgotten history, the 1919 Spanish flu, there are some things so terrible they seemed to vanish from memory and the history books, the Spanish flu killed an estimated 200 million people, it spread from town to town killing indiscriminately, people went to bed sick and drowned overnight, lungs full of fluid, a defense mechanism of the human body, natural antibodies over-reacted and people drowned, the meat wagon would roll into town each morning picking up the dead that survivors would place at their door steps, many thought it was the end of the world.

But something happened, a few of the sick survived, the folks that didn`t get sick had a natural anti-body, and as fast and lethal as the Spanish flu was, as quickly as it came it was gone. The quiet horror children endured, returning to school and half their friends were gone, it was so scary, no one spoke of the horror, it was almost as if they pretended it had never happened, it truly was hell on earth. Some of the few interviews decades later were surreal, did it really happen, many lived in fear that it might return, it was a classic case of almost forgotten history.

The scary thing we in B.C. are facing is a politically dead Gordon Muir Campbell and a decimated party, Gordon Campbell also knows this,the criminally insane Gordon Campbell, a vicious man with nothing left to lose, an adulterer, a liar, a criminal, his power is gone but he`s still steering the ship and he is deliberately heading for the rocks, he doesn`t care, his intent is too inflict as much harm to the education system as he can, to dismantle the health system, brick by brick, one child at a time, perhaps an insanity gene runs in the family, I honestly believe the Site C announcement was more about retribution to the Peace River area, they have 25% sign up on the HST, a vindictive little man, he has a history of vengeance, NDP ridings have seen his fury,ferry dependent communities have felt his wrath, the Vancouver school board who spoke up loudly now have a Comptroller General lackey to burn the board.

It has become so clear to me, this revenge streak was there early on, Gordon Muir Campbell was interviewed in the Guardian magazine in the run-up to the 2001 election, he was specifically asked about honouring the HEU contract, he said he would, with a smiling and friendly charm he gave a nice interview but once in power called a special week-end session in the legislature, no reporters, just his yes men and he, Gordon Muir Campbell said to his cult that the HEU contract was to be shredded, a deliberate and illegal act, the Supreme court of Canada and the UN called his actions illegal, we as a Province saved zero dollars tearing up this contract, the lowest paid hospital staff, 9000 females workers fired without cause, their wages given to a service provider, it was nothing but deliberate vindictiveness, Gordon Muir Campbell is criminally insane.

B.C. Rail, Gordon Muir Campbell talked of selling B.C. Rail during the 1996 election, it cost him the election, the revenge would be his, he knew what to say in 2001, "I won`t sell B.C. Rail, I won`t tear up contracts" he knew once in office revenge would be his, BC Rail was making money, a recently upgraded track to accommodate high speed rail, the more and more I think about it the reason for tearing up contracts and selling B.C. rail was about nothing but revenge against Gordon Muir Campbell`s self perceived enemies!

The fact that he rewarded our money and assets to his friends and insiders while he was exacting his revenge is another issue, the same revenge was exacted against B.C. ship builders and ferry dependent communities, he sold our B.C. ferries through debentures and guile, nobody seems to know that we don`t own B.C. Ferries anymore, we can maybe get ownership back by paying off B.C. Ferries $1.6 billion dollar debt, maybe. He has shown a continual dis-respect towards the common man and those less fortunate in our society, every time the going gets tough he has launched an attack directly upon the masses, stitch by stich the fabric of British Columbia is being unwoven, I refuse to allow this idealogue to continue raping and pillaging my home.

The more I think about it I am convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that Gordon Muir Campbell is deranged, "The last desperate act of a scoundrel is to wrap them self in the flag"......I don`t know about the rest of you but during the opening and closing ceremonies of both the Olympics and Paraolympics games, those red mittens, the giant flag and he was screaming the National anthem, it was utterly embarrassing, it was a telling sign, there is a mental defect there, and there is so much more, the revenge against paramedics, teachers, and now with the HST revenge he is going after everyone who`s left.

And now that he and his party are lame ducks he`s awarding stinky contracts, 1/2 billion dollars lids, giant casinos, power buying contracts to companies with but a desk and Gordon Campbell`s secret phone number, Finavera, that contract award is a joke, he has billions of our dollars for stadium lids and casino`s but has no money for meals on wheels or the autistic, Gordon muir Campbell is criminally insane, and what`s scary right now is that he knows he`s done in a year and he`s inflicting as much harm as he can and as fast as possible before he`s dragged out of office and arrested.

Anyone who can`t see what is happening is stupid or willfully blind, brick by brick, piece by piece our Province is being gutted, he will be dragged from office and hopefully arrested, and when Gordon Campbell is gone and when people see what he has done to our education and health system, to our natural assets, the legacy of debt, the 30 and 40 year contracts, he has conspired for your children to feel the pain of his devious manipulation of today`s people and press, and just like the Spanish flu horror of 1919, a blip in time that has been purged from people`s memory, Gordon Campbell will not be spoken of, no legacy, it never happened, Gordon Muir Campbell will be relegated into the abyss of forgotten history.
