A common theme.

One thing I've noticed since the Tories took office, is the Opposition parties (especially those that consider themselves the "natural Governing party) to cast blam on the Conservatives for things they themselves had no interest in fixing while they had the chance.  Yet again the Leader of the Liberal party is "Shocked and amazed" at how the Conservatives have let something like Attawapiskat happen, failing to accept his own responsibility of neglegence.

Sun News puts it across quite plainly, and it's been a trend I've seen since before the Tories took a majority.  Rae ignores history.

The "Harper Government" must be doing a lot right...

When one of the major complaints against it is the appropriation of media terminology "The Harper Government".

The major negative media buzz has been trivial inconsequential items against the Conservatives time as a majority Government. The biggest buzzes revolve around;
1. The profanity of the NDP Opposistion party. The Globe and Mail.
2. The use of media terminology "The Harper Government". The Globe and Mail.
3. The profanity of the Liberal party. Huffington post.

Now maybe it's the type of people reposting stuff like this, or maybe this is the best that these media outlets can come up with.  Whatever the case may be, these articles say a lot about how well the Conservative Government is now running the country. When you have to "find things" to blame on the Government, it says 2 things: 1. the Government is doing well. 2. The quality of the media outlet by what they print. 

I start to wonder if the "Other Side of the House of Commons" is "winning" much like Charlie Sheen and the reporters of these stories.
