Screw May

Elizabeth May is launching a media campaign to have the media allow her a spot in their media coverage of the election (which is all the debate actually is) of course this is being covered by that same media; they're mediating the mediation of the mediated, if you please. They're mediating the mediation of the mediated, if you don't please.

Boy, focusing on the issues that matter sure is gonna be easy come what may about May in May. I think same said media ought to stick to its guns and ignore the Green Party completely, but that's beside the point.

Sure having at least a seat would be a good rule for being allowed into the debate, or winning a seat once, ever, maybe, and generally I think we should respect the concept of democracy enough not to think it under threat each time a politician (or May be a wannabe politician?) says so. Thanks for joining that train May, I thought you reasonable until the media consortium became your coalition. Whatever May and I think is irrelevant though, because whatever rules the "media" choose to follow they can, that's the business. Of couse the May's media campaign, whilst no longer focused on may, is getting alot of free help. And then the movement will build and then the consortium will give in to popular demand, which they probably were doing in the first place. Now I need to go purchase something to mediate this headache.
