We or I

That is the choice you may face in a few weeks time if Cyclops (I) can make a decision to go to the country, I still believe he won't as his "courage" will fail him.

We or I, the belief of whether it us, the public, who have the major role in a democracy or we want to be ruled by someone who believes he knows what is best for us and ploughs on regardless of anyone else. Democracy versus Totalitarianism

We just have to look at the party conferences over the past fortnight, The Labour Conference was all about I, There was only person who mattered and only one speech that was worth reporting on. Brown was centre stage and no-one was going to share it with him. he was the Lord and Master and woe betide anyone who thought different or who might upstage him. Then came the speech, all about how he had made the world good and he would make it better for all of us, as he knew best. He was the star and there was no one else in the firmament.

Contrast that with the Tory conference where there were any number of good speeches from David Cameron's cabinet with IDS particularly playing a blinder and Hague, as always, standing out. Then we had Cameron's speech that promised that we would be involved, that the government needed our help and that we mattered to it. Promises would be kept and Covenant's
Honoured

What a difference!

We just had to see Brown's response to the speech. He had not listened to it, He was apparently to busy governing us to bother with anything so unimportant, but he thought we would like to know.

So when or if the decision comes, think about it, who do you want to govern, We or I?
