Most Respected Harper Ministers

if you compare him to the likes of harper toews clement van loan mackay kent del mastro he looks like a good honest man -
CPC that wasnt even a real question and no different than But when asked later by reporters if the Conservatives were prepared to release their own records, Mr. Del Mastro said: “No, because obviously our party is not behind the calls. We know that. We believe the Liberal Party has in fact made these allegations and they’ve made these allegations knowing full well that they’ve paid these companies millions of dollars to makes calls to hundreds of thousands of households across the country.”

Cpc and other parties disobeyed the rules tsk tsk Elections Canada confirms the Conservative party requested a list of all polling stations before the federal vote last May 2, and that as a result the elections watchdog provided the list to all parties. In its statutory report following the 2011 campaign, released last August, Elections Canada highlighted the incident in a separate box. "Because a polling site can be replaced by another at the last minute, and to ensure that electors always have access to the most accurate information regarding their location, Elections Canada indicated to political parties that the list supplied should only be used for internal purposes and that parties should not direct electors to polling sites," said the report. All parties were instructed to tell voters to check Elections Canada's website or their voter information card for poll locations "to prevent electors from being directed to incorrect polling sites." "Some political parties did not comply with this request," said the report. Elections Canada could not immediately say Monday which parties disregarded its advice. But the Conservatives have been readily acknowledging for a week that they contacted party supporters by phone with information on poll locations. http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/canada/elections-canada-told-parties-not-to-call-voters-with-polling-station-locations-141498343.html?device=mobile

12.4 million ad campaign for Flahertys budget

Until the NDP & LPC voters unite you can expect the CPC to win every time -
I don't think you need to see the question word for word, that isn't how articles are written http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/ottawa-notebook/tories-demand-liberals-release-call-records-but-refuse-to-follow-suit/article2359412/ But when asked later by reporters if the Conservatives were prepared to release their own records, Mr. Del Mastro said: “No, because obviously our party is not behind the calls. We know that. We believe the Liberal Party has in fact made these allegations and they’ve made these allegations knowing full well that they’ve paid these companies millions of dollars to makes calls to hundreds of thousands of households across the country.”

http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/story/2012/03/05/pol-robocalls-monday.html "It's ... clear that the Liberal Party spent millions of dollars to contact hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of homes right across this country. It appears they had given them some incorrect information but the Liberal leader is sitting on all of this information while he makes unsubstantiated smears," Del Mastro said. Speaking to reporters after question period, Del Mastro denied making any allegations. "No, in fact I haven’t made any allegations," he said. "The Liberal Party has made … allegations about our party that we in fact contacted Liberal supporters. We did no such thing." The Conservative Party doesn't need to provide its own records, he said "because obviously our party is not behind these calls, we know that."

CTV is pro harper government, I don't see why they would make stuff up to make him look bad
-
I came upon these words..eloquently spoken by Stephen Harper before the Gomery Inquiry was finished "At worst, he personally ordered it done and chose the people who executed the plan. At the very least, he fostered an attitude within the party [...], chose the managers of the people who committed these crimes and completely and utterly failed to exercise any oversight, supervision or leadership. In the end, it doesn’t really matter where [his] actions or lack of them fall on that scale. He is the leader and a leader is responsible for the actions of the people he leads. If he had a right or honourable bone in his body, he’d admit that and resign immediately." Oh my god the irony
-
lol, that doesn't prove he didn't say that, you know CTV doesn't have all the time in the world to focus on their stories, they're mostly between 90 seconds to 120 seconds, what it shows is that you're being blatantly partisan because you're implying all of these journalists and papers and tv stations are reporting a lie they are making up quotes is what you're implying
-
That's what they should have done, but have we ever known the Harper government to be anything but graceful? Let the opposition flip out, they would have been the ones whom looked out of control..now the Conservatives look like they're spiraling out of control and you know one thing Harper loves the most is being in full control The Conservatives are fighters though, even when they don't need to be I remember seeing Baird totally go off on an NDPer for absolutely no reason last year after the election The NDPer didn't accuse him of anything either, they just won a majority and here is Baird going all out on an NDPer when he should be taking it easy...Its like you have what you wanted man, take a chill pill! But I think that explains them well, they don't normally need to be in attack dog mode but they always are

Maybe this is one message that just can't be spun.. I see no other explanation really

"No, because obviously our party is not behind the calls. We know that. We believe the Liberal Party has in fact made these allegations and they've made these allegations knowing full well that they've paid these companies millions of dollars to makes calls to hundreds of thousands of households across the country," he said. The CPC ADMITTED something happened in their Guelph campaign and now they are saying obviously our party is not behind the calls.. is anyone else confused? maybe I'm understanding this wrong

Can any conservative supporter answer this question, if the CPC won't release their records why are we supposed to give them the benefit of the doubt that they aren't behind this? hmm hmm http://www.ctv.ca/CTVNews/TopStories/20120305/robocalls-parliament-protest-120305/ Prime Minister Stephen Harper's Tories are demanding the Liberals release records of calls made on their behalf on the last election -- while at the same time saying there is no reason for the governing party to release their own. Dean Del Mastro, the parliamentary secretary to the Prime Minister, blamed the Liberals over and over again during question period Monday. "When those records are made public the Liberal party will in fact have fingered itself for each and every one of those calls," he said. However, when asked by reporters if the Conservatives would release their own records, Del Mastro said they didn't need to because they are not the guilty party. "No, because obviously our party is not behind the calls. We know that. We believe the Liberal Party has in fact made these allegations and they've made these allegations knowing full well that they've paid these companies millions of dollars to makes calls to hundreds of thousands of households across the country," he said. Interim Liberal Leader Bob Rae said his party has agreed to release all phone records, including scripts, from last May's election. "We're hoping to release stuff as soon as possible," Rae said, following question period. Read more: http://www.ctv.ca/CTVNews/TopStories/20120305/robocalls-parliament-protest-120305/#ixzz1oJCN9Soy

I hate Iran as much as I hate Israel, I'm on no ones side here, so let me look at it from both sides here and be as fair as I can Israel has legitimate fears that if Iran has a nuclear weapon that they would get nuked.. and a lot of that has to do with how the Palestinians are being treated. That's one of the main things Iran hates about Israel Every country around Iran has had or had U.S troops and is being closed in on from every angle The Iranian regime feels like they are being threatened and going nuclear would be used as a deterrent So, what is the only peaceful outcome here? There isn't any Israel isn't going to back down and let the Palestinians be Iran isn't going to stop trying to go nuclear So, if they're going to go to war get the f*** on with it already

They're not going to panic the public, it'd be anarchy..I assume they first want to pin point where it will possibly explode if it does come to that ..this probably won't happen but they could evacuate the areas where they think it could hit .. but probably not -
They get too many breaks
