Third party insults in such a manner don't contribute to the forum. Howard Dean just helped lead Democrats to a full fledged rout of the Conservative Repubs. Not too many "certifiable nutcase" types can accomplish such a feat. Now he's coming up here to tell the Liberals how to get rid of their rightwing opposition too! I'm not sure what you're objecting to.....do you think Dean is not a certifiable nutcase for some reason? Would you like links to his infamous 'primal scream' exit from the last Democratic Party primaries? Oh please, that doesn't make him a certifiable nutcase. Try to raise your level of debate a little.

Should cancer patients be insulted that the "support our troops" ribbon croud copied their car magnets?

How is that movement belittling the sacraifices of soldiers? Who expressed that belief? It's implicit in the "pro peace" message utilizing a symbol that remembers that we FOUGHT A WAR for what was right and good. He referred to the movement, not the white poppy symbol, as "belittleing the sacrafices of soldiers". Does a peace movement impliticly do that?

Great symbolism for the Liberals!

"Ordinary Americans have sent the Republicans the message ... that they do not support the war in Iraq." - Jack Layton in the House Look at this exchange in the house. Stephen Harper is up to his despicable trick of equating the mission with support for the soldiers. He even brings up Remembrance Day. I've posted on this behaviour by our Prime Minister in the past. Not only is he still doing it, he's cranked it into high gear. Absolutely sickening.

I commend you for it. And I'm sorry for harping at you, but you have often in the past been very critical of folks in a generalized fashion - i.e. Canadians as a whole - over things related to the military. I'm glad you're able to recognize when emotion is overtaking your logical abilities.

"our candidate". Do you work for the CPC? And your answer is a very poor one. You offer your opinion about the Liberal candidate, the CPC candidate, and conclude that Haligonians are cowards because they didn't vote for the CPC candidate. Absolute nonsense.

Easy to criticize, Gerry. What do you suggest we do? Agree with the sexist homophobes?Gerry, you talk a tough line against guys like Harper but when it comes to the mullahs, you're suddenly silent. Why? Well August1991, that's an interesting thing you're attempting to set up there. Maybe you can explain to me please, are all of the people fed up with Rumsfeld on side with the mullahs? Is that the way you see it? You've just insulted a good chunk of the US military.

What is it that makes you say that?

I appreciate getting the "hey, he's not wearing any clothes" award for a typo. I'd tell you my true feelings but your actions, but I probably be banned for it. Congrats sir you have won. Free to attack with no repercussions. Um, actually that award went to Geoffrey. I posted it before I read your post made two hours after your topic post explaining that you'd made a typo, several hours before you bothered to fix it. I make no apologies for my harmless joke which was not even close to an attack on you.

Already done Gerry. Click on the links provided before commenting in their comment without knowing what is in them. Thanks. Was not done at the time I made my post.

What about the crack at Halifax, you apoligize for that as well?

He was good for a laugh. It sure looks like a good thing for the military down there. They're not liking him one bit.

The poll was from yesterday Gerry. Click on the link provided. Thanks, I noticed that. Edit your original post perhaps.

What are the other polls you are referring to in this series? This one shows the CPC up from election day. The poll is from August, it's completely irrelevant. You get the "hey, he's not wearing any clothes" award.

Yeah. Now it's time to get down to truly important business, like enshrining Al Gore's apocalyptic ecological views into the Constitution, or something. But not in a fearmongering way. If you mean it's time to do something about Global Warming, you're absolutely right! And their not Al Gore's views, btw. They are the views of the entire scientific community. But I guess they're all just idiots!

Both Houses have gone Democrat. God is good! I meant the White House.....Gerry. Oh, I thought that was typically referred to as the "executive branch", while the others were called "Houses". Why should I? The Bush administration and his Republican enablers have been an umitigated disaster. A large majority of Americans apparently agree with me.

I don't know a lot about the incident, but I find it distasteful how you choose to condemn all Canadians for their treatment of the military, and Halifax as a "city of cowards". No, I don't know a lot about the incident, but from reading your posts on it it's quite obvious you don't either. You have no idea if being military or American factored into the fight. And even if you did, that would hardly mean that's how "Canadians respect the military" or that all in Halifax are cowards.

Both Houses have gone Democrat. God is good!

Yeah, with Nancy Pelosi as Speaker you know the House will be free from nasty, shrieking ideology. Oh yeah, Nancy Pelosi is SO SCARY! Fear. That was the Repubs entire thing.

I don't want these rightwing ideologues to pull anything out of their ass, thanks! And don't change the Country either. It's a good Country, just needs a little tweaking. It's not some "second-tier socialistic Country" trying to "mask it's second-rate status". as our dear PM said not all that long ago. Nope, just move 'em on down the road as far as I'm concerned.

I have to laugh when people mock polls because there's only 1 or 2 thousand people questioned.

This is more indicitive of the income trust reaction than the last poll that came out.
