Debating the debate to nicely debate

If this isn't a harbinger of things to comein parliament, I don't know what is. From Silver-Powers:

Rob always teases me about borrowing material from the Conservative War Room. Today, I am appropriating some from my Liberal friends, particularly their commentary about the NDP and Bloc, sadly and reflexively saying they oppose the Speech from the Throne - well just because they do. It is unfortunate some people can't demonstrate enough maturity to recognize there are bigger issues at play than simple partisan politics. Anyway Rob, here are the points from your war room:
-- Once again the NDP and the Bloc are proving that they are nothing more than professional opposition parties.
-- Canadians don't want partisan bickering, they want solutions to this serious economic crisis.
Arguing about not arguing. Go figure. (H/T Tim Powers)

... I guess that it is easier to be reflexively "against" everything, than actually having anything of your own to bring to the table.

This parliament will end up just as bad (or worse) then the last when it comes to lack of decorum.
