Whatever eureka added to the discussions he took away with his bitterness against all things conservative and arrogence to those who drew his ire. A smart person though.

It looks like a lot of bitter Liberals and NDPers are trying to work out their grief after last night's Tory win. Go ahead, take pot shots at Harper, Christians and any other group you like to nurse a grudge against. Once you get over yourselves, you'll be much more pleasant to have discussions with and treat people as you would like to be treated.

How strange, Bubber, that you claim to have no religious ties and at the same time express comments showing that you feel superior to religious people, who 'join' religions so as to feel superior to others. You have some issues! Or maybe you're just bitter about the Tory win tonight. Nah, you have some issues.

No, he doesn't scare me.

Now for the real real real REAL truth: blah blah FRANCE WAS RIGHT blah blah blah DUBYA LIED blah blah BLACK HATER blah blah CONSPIRACY blah blah blah ALMOST LIKE THE NAZIS blah blah. The only reason Dubya isn't in prison yet is only because there's no actual proof. Or evidence.

I was just watching the CTV noon news program and they had interviews with Harper and then Layton. At the outset, the one host said they invited Martin, but he declined. And now I know why, The CBC news channel gave him at least 20 minutes of uninterrupted live coverage of a stump speech in Richmond, B.C. Unbelievable!! The CBC is really pulling out all the stops to help the Liberals, their hatred of the Tories will translate into biased coverage after the election and if the Tories do anything to the CBC budget they'll scream about it. They have real power and they intend to use it.

WHAT'S BEHIND THIS FRANTIC DESPERATION?
sharkman replied to betsy's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Aside from the hidden crimes the Liberals have done that might get exposed with a Tory win, we are also witnessing a corrupt party about to go down hard and they know it. Power corrupts, and Martin right now is at his worst. -
How legitimate are lawyers and judges in US?

Uh, Chris, I think it's time to adjust your meds. Next time the 'urge' hits you, pop an extra yellow one and repeat, "There's no place like home", 3 times and feed Toto to get your mind off your troubles for a while. Good luck. -
Why we must prevent Harper from becoming PM
sharkman replied to emailforcanada's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Abolishing death, has a nice ring to it. But don't tell Martin, he might actually try it as a related strategy to his gun bans. Of course, Harper won't abolish death or taxes, and the sun will come up the day after the election just like every Liberal victory. Canada will go in a different direction for a few years, and if Canadians don't like it they will vote him out next time. -
For every Calgary Sun, there were several left of center papers trying to scare people with the Tories at the start of this election campaign, and most TV based media doing the same. I have been surprised to find that the balance has shifted to a more center point of view. That, and the weight of all the latest Liberal scandals have made it tough for the Liberals in the various media. There are still, of course, media people on both sides trying to get their favourite party elected.

Harper Dragging Canada into Exteme Danger
sharkman replied to River_God's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
But don't be surprised. Now that the CPC is way ahead in the polls, Liberals, NPDers and any other foes are getting scared and pumping up the scaremongering. Take a look at the new liberal ads, nothing but smearing and lies, they've even had to pull one already it was so bad. Look at the title of this thread, it's pathetic. It'll probably get worse before the election. What conservatives need is another RCMP investigation revelation about a week before voting day to finish them off. The facts are much more effective than the scaremongers. -
Wow, err, you must be a christian. With all the hate filled rants you make, I never would have guessed. Oh wait, putting your own words in Jesus's mouth and politicizing him shows you're just another angry lefty. Care to bet on which side of the gay marriage issue Tommy D. would have come down on being that he was a baptist minister? Anyway, I just saw the CBC newscast for 8 am and they led off with Martin's new claims(although it's a rerun of last election) that the CPC's promises would drive us into deficit. Then the anchor begins a discussion with a reporter who says the exact same thing. Then she shows a video clip where Martin says the exact same thing(That's it, keep pounding it into the voters heads enough in an attempt to scare them). After spending 4 or 5 minutes on this with no showing of Harper's response to this, they show a clip of under 10 seconds of a CPC underling who stated that since the Liberals claimed the exact same thing last election, and also underestimated the surplus at that time by several billion, they have shown themselves to be untrustworthy with the numbers this time. They only gave the CPC several seconds, but that was all it took to unravel this latest Liberal strategy.

So reversing Goodale's tax reduction is going to hurt people since they haven't even claimed it in one tax cycle yet? What is it, $500 plus 1% for about 8 or 900 total? Let's see, that's about $17 a week or beer and popcorn range. But since the CPC might be doing it, Liberal supporters find it to be HUGE!

Big Brother is watching...
sharkman replied to theloniusfleabag's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
These are the most laughable comments I have read in some time. The worst part is I think this guy actually believes he's right. -
You CAN love a country, and still not like that same country's government. Much the way you feel about Canada, it seems. You mean friends like this......(PMPM following Hurricane Katrina) In fact, the USA was so upset by this unfriendly comment, and the actions which followed, that their ambassador Wilkins responded in a most outraged fashion, saying..... Someone that comes to your aid, when you're in need, "eagerly and early". Sounds like the best kind of friend to me. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hey pocket, your selective memory is quite impressive. I"ll waste one post on this. Words mean much less than action. Martin said the right things at the time of Katrina and then sends stuff on a bleedin' ship! It took way too long to get there. He could have had it trucked/flown down much faster. And by the time they got there, the aid workers weren't needed according to some reports. But a ship 'sounds' impressive. It's all about image with Martin. As far as Martin and the U.S. Ambassador making friendly, you find one incident and extrapolate it into the state of our relationship. Almost as if the last several times Martin has taken swipes at the U.S. didn't happen. Never mind the crapola comments that went on under Chretien. Like I said, your selective memory is something else.

Monty, you missed one I think. Bubba was also disbarred for lying under oath. He can no longer practice law, which is why he goes around taking money from whomever for his little chats. If lawyers(of which there are so many crooks) could actually agree that Bubba was lyin' then he must have been a lyin' sack of ...sugar(Simpson reference, ring any bells?)

Canadians' apparent unwillingness to toss the Liberals out for the scandals, corruption and outright lies shows we have little in the way of ethical standards left. We are a people who live by fear. Fear of change. Fear of the Americans. Fear of Harper. Fear of Health care problems. Fear that SSM might be revisited with a free vote. Fear that any part of our lives might not be covered by a gov. program. And so we might just get the government that can manipulate our fears best. How sad.
-
I hope that you don't think, deep down inside, sneaking across the border to blow some stuff up to prove whatever your point is would be justified. Canada doesn't need terrorists. Btw, are your guns registered?

The left outed once again
sharkman replied to B. Max's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
So Dubya, who is supposedly pretty dumb, singlehandedly masteminded and successfully carried out a plan to divide the country into 2 camps? The U.S. does have moderates, they just get little time in the MSM. The MSM is too busy showing lefty opinion and responses as the One True Way, and righties as sad misinformed extremists. There is only the impression of 2 camps. -
SSM foes `unhappy' with Harper's stand
sharkman replied to hiti's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Yes, lets. A chunk of liberal mps would actually vote against ssm, and the liberals didn't lose any over it. Neither would the Tories. Norm, come on, surely you can do better than drag up old comments you've used many times before! I will choose an old response: about 67% of Canadians would rather have someone else than Martin as PM. Interesting how you change your position on polls when they don't have a favorable result for you. The Tories would allow a free vote, the Liberals not, and who's the more tolerant? You need to take off your Liberal coloured glasses. At any rate, I'm getting bored with this again. Usually I avoid you Norm because you develop this one note trill about Harper and the Liberals and darned if you didn't start it up again. When you want to actually debate something without bringing up the usual crapola, I'll be around. -
Yes, Martin has no patent on what a PM is, that is up to us Canadians, something he ignores at his peril.

SSM foes `unhappy' with Harper's stand
sharkman replied to hiti's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
It does not violate the charter. The charter does not specifically address this issue and existed for many years without gay marriage. Are you saying Canada was in violation all those years? We've had gay marriage for less than a year. The conservatives are the only party that allow mps of both views to have their say on the matter, which is in step with a majority of Canadians. -
SSM foes `unhappy' with Harper's stand
sharkman replied to hiti's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Ah, so now you can read Martin's mind. He imposed his views on the matter on us, not allowing his own party to vote their conscience. And 55% of Canadians think a free vote is the proper way to go. -
And it is also known that the U.S., while not commited to kyoto as Canada is, has outperformed Canada. To the topic at large, I think the U.S. ambas. was wasting his breath to criticize Martin, I think the U.S. should instead start getting serious about reducing our trading status with them if the liberals get in again, since it seems that Canadians in general hate the U.S. and only want to take their money. The U.S. doesn't need 'friends' like that.

SSM foes `unhappy' with Harper's stand
sharkman replied to hiti's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Norm, once again you can only see part of an issue. This may surprise you but religious liberals also want to impose their views. Martin has imposed his views regarding ssm on us. I know this issue is very close to your heart so you can't see it, but it's still an imposition. Recently someone here linked to a poll that showed 55% of Canadians supported a free vote on the issue. http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Politics/Canad...16/1355517.html So Harper's position is actually in step with a majority of Canadians.
