  1. I'm sure you'd be all over if it had been a Liberal using taxpayer money. That is not the point and wrong to boot. But why don't you look into it and tell us what you find out.
  2. Your first sentence infers that anti-gays trust doctors in peer reviewed reports. I don't think you meant that.
  3. This is yet another issue that the left is filled with hypocrisy. Another poster mentioned this before, but the left wants other cultures (afghanistan) left alone to sort out their issues, but can't handle it when afghanistan is left alone to handle its own issues with prisioners. Make up your damn minds! I'm waiting for Layton to go to Afghanistan and demand the Taliban refrain from torturing our allies.
  4. Good find, but yet another bias filled 'study' with ontario coloured glasses.
  5. I've seen no numbers to indicate taxpayers paid for a stylist for previous prime ministers. In a breathtaking development, Liberal insiders reveal that the government has also revealed no numbers to indicate what taxpayers paid for Harper's underwear. jdobbin, I'm hoping you can do something for this outrage!
  6. I looked around, but couldn't find the ACTUAL list anywhere. What is it, some kind of secret, or do they titilate you with this 'list' in the hopes that you'll buy their magazine. I wanted to know where, if at all, my town is.
  7. I don't know too much about the current situation, but am bold enough to make a prediction. If their PM steps down or is forced out, their enemies will automatically commence bombing and otherwise trying to influence the choice of any replacement.
  8. Newbie, are you saying you watched every minute of the show? That's what you infer in one of your statements. At any rate, attah boy! I can't even make the same claim about it. Unfortunately you seem to have misunderstood the key parts where respected scientists with point by point descriptions of where the Global Warming Alarmists are wrong.
  9. Well let me say that your command of the english language seems to be improving. What other languages do you know? I only know one I am afraid.
  10. IMO, Glenn Beck is going places. Any word on the viewership of his show? The one bright light on CNN, who for all their faults at least recognize to make a profit they have to cater to the right once in a while.
  11. This is what I noted in an earlier thread about Hillary. She's fading and it appears that the blacks are leaving her. Weird, since they called her husband the first black prez. The republican side is interesting by what I heard on The (dare I admit it?) View this morning. Hey, lay off, I just watched it for a few minutes! Anyway, they reserved their worst comments for Rudy, which tells me he'd be a good candidate. Hey, we all have our methods, eh?
  12. Hmm, I seem to have ticked you off. That was not my intent, although I appreciate your passion. There is passion on both sides of this issue, and respected scientists as well. We could get into a competition on whose scientists are better, but suffice to say that your talking points are in dispute.
  13. That's hilarious! Layton playing the Neville card against Martin and then saying he wouldn't have used it as May did. Man, you can't make up stuff this good.
  14. Nah, the libs are in trouble with Dion at the helm, that's why they can't raise any cash.
  15. What we really have is an attempt to force an agenda on governments by fooling the people with propaganda based on junk science wrapped up in a slick campaign. Of course dissenters will be attacked.
  16. So, by taking introductory courses you have enough knowledge to disprove what seasoned scientists are saying in this video? You seem to believe so. Slavik: "... I am not talking about rigorous scientific anylisation...Instead it is Slavik has taken introductory courses in Earth Science and Physical Geography." I'm sorry friend, but they say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. A few introductory courses on the subject is not enough.
  17. Charles, to answer your question what should be done, I beg to differ with Gost, although he may have a point with bad parenting. But our culture has devalued the family and traditional values like honesty is the best policy. Most families these days have to have both parents working, at least in the bigger urban centers where most of Canadians live. Children spend increasingly less time with the wonderful people who brought them into the world and love them above all else. And I don't believe it can be reversed. Whatever the outcome, we are headed there at break neck speed. Those whose top priority is their kids and not money may move to smaller communities where the culture is less prevalent and you can still have mom at home (at least for the first few years of childhood). But most are unaware that pop culture has the upper hand in influencing our kids, and too busy to notice the differnce in their kids anyway.
  18. IF there is no such thing as global climate change -- why bother with the electric car? IF there is no such thing as peak oil -- why bother with the electric car? If the globe isn't changing why all the interest in alternate cleaner energy sources? Hmmmmm? Obviously you didn't watch the show. We do need to cut down on our pollution, but the end of the world isn't nigh like environmental alarmists keep shrieking. BTW, what is 'peak oil'?
  19. Yes. However, a television set has never turned itself off nor told me I am watching too much junk nor kicked me in the ass nor sent me to bed without my supper nor bought me any junk for Christmas. But pop culture has taught kids that smoking is still cool, drugs and beer is cool, your parents are to be ignored, and you are a total loser if you haven't had sex by the time you are 14. Abortions anyone? The children might like to hang around their parents when they are five, but by the time they are 12, mom and dad are something to be avoided. This all depends, of course, on how much pop culture your kids consume every day. Another example from my wife, the high school teacher. Her observations of teaching 13 to 18 year olds are as follows: Canadian born kids do not do their home work, get lousy grades, have a higher incidence of cheating, skipping class and being disrespectful of other students. ESL kids far outperform Canadian kids in every single category. It is because they come from a culture where the family unit is still respected and western pop culture hasn't saturated their brains. After they grow up and have kids, however, the second generation kids start underperforming just like everyone else. You are underestimating the negative influence our culture has on our kids. The classroom proves it.
  20. Excellent job of shredding Gore's movie, and the scientists interviewed in the field raise key issues. I thought bringing in the electric car was a great idea. A car that can do 0 - 60 in 4 seconds! The developer's comment, that trying to change human behaviour is so difficult, making the electric car appealing instead, makes a lot of sense.
  21. Perhaps part of the reason why the Green's support has remained steady is their dogmatic environmentalist alarmism, and fear keeps people close, no matter what the leader may be spouting off about, even if it's as radical as a comparison with Nazis. Actually, many green supporters probably agree with her.
  22. LOL!! This is real funny, figgy trying to change the subject, but when the leader of the Green party comes up with lines like these, parties' fortunes can be quickly reversed.
  23. That's funny, the CBC thinks he IS a Green Paryt candidate. "When the second tower came down the same way, that little voice said, 'Beautiful!' "When the visage of the Pentagon appeared on the TV with a gaping and smoking hole in its side … I felt an urge to pump my fist in the air."
  24. At any rate it's pretty good news. The party that raises the most money has a better chance of winning.
  25. Rue, ain't you been busy! But it looks like we haven't convinced each other of anything. You speak of my bias, but aren't you gay? Or am I mixing you up with another, perhaps cybercoma. At any rate we all have biases and so does the medical community, since it is full of people. I was going to thank you for keeping it mostly polite until at the end(unlike your previous post to me where you referenced my peepee) you played the religion card. It's funny how those on the pro gay side just can't keep themselves from name calling or taunts. It belittles your argument, so I won't bother you on this thread anymore lest it provoke you further.
