Who's Doing What?

One implication is, before any verdict is reached, that this is going to cost the taxpayers money.

Huh??? Is this letter a bit dated? Open Kyoto to debate Sixty scientists call on Harper to revisit the science of global warming Special to the Financial Post Published: Thursday, April 06, 2006 And yet it mentions the Minister of the Environment, Rona Ambrose. She hasn't been minister for 6 months.

No. Just my cutting through the garbage. Perhaps. There is obviously some hostility towards others there.

Huh??? Is this letter a bit dated?

Ah but you did do your own analysis when you said mine was wrong. To come up with a differing oppinion you would have had to analyse the situation. Again with the name calling and generalizatons of people who don't think just like you do. Sad really. Also to think that just because you say you aren't directing a comment at me, covers the fact that directing it towards me is exactly what you are doing is a complete farce. With the way you treat people who don't think like you, perhaps you should go spend some time on "an internet site of like-minded" people.

LMAO So your street corner psycho-analysis is perfectly capable of disecting someones actions but mine is dismissable? I love the double standard you guys cling to like a life preserver. The fact that he felt the need to describe others who don't share his point of view in that manner shows he has issues. Your defense of such stereotyping is laughable and only shows you are of a like mind.

Do you need a hug?? Runningdog seems more in need of a hug. Anyone who uses the term "hurtful" and "angry" to describe other points of view is either a propagandist or has an extremely tenuous hold on their emotions... So you missed the obvious anger and abject distain displayed in the above post. Seems to me like there is some pent up anger issues that should be dealt with.

Ya Ricki. Hmmm Was Clinton on record of criticizing the same thing when someone else did it? Having the stylist isn't the issue. The hypocrisy and stonewalling is.

Do you need a hug??

The CPC double standard does not allow for them to see the hyporcisy of their actions.

Whatever Ricki. This kind of disissive BS and nitpicking is so lame. So typical CPC. The legitimacy of the argument is totally valid. Harper attacked Manning over spending money on his image. Be it clothes, stylist whatever. Harper should at the very least be questioned about his own spending when it apparently meant so much to him when Manning did it. Nice try to weasel out of it though. Your avoidance tactics are getting sharp what with all the dodging and spinning you have had to do recently in your crusade to defend the Harper.

I somehow doubt that if Manning were PM you'd support him. Whether or not he would support him has no bearing on the situation. Harper attacked Manning over his stylist spending. Should he not be subject to similar scrutiny?

Sure sure. Yup whatever you say.

The times changed and there was a need to change policy on those two issues. He made a decision and has moved on. No that wasn't dithering. Better than naming 56 priorities, isn't it? Sure sure Ricki. Whatever you say. Sorry to tarnish your golden boy, but the fact is he isn't perfect.

Why? It would have merely been interpreted as a sign of weak leadership. Kinda like Joe Clark bowing to Gordon Towers when he wanted to represent Red Deer in 1979. A leader leads. You won't see Harper dither about. Different style. After the last minority Government Canadian's craved that. Why? How about saying that the CPC wouldn't do such a thing. Weak leadership? Jeezus. With all the spinning the CPC has done already, spinning the idea of an MP standing up for his constituents shouldn't have been too hard. Yes a leader leads. So are you suggesting Harper ordered the confinement of Casey? No he didn't dither on income trusts or the environmemt. He flip flopped without any dithering at all.

Dion shouldn't have kicked out his candidate for May to thump her chest. The Liberals might have made a gain, but instead Dion gave Mackay a free ride to do whatever he damn well pleases. Yup. To not run a Liberal candidate in that riding is plain stupid.

Sure. More like to maintina Harpers dictatorship over the CPC. Violent anolgies. LMAO Grow up.

LMAO Your double standard is a never ending source of amusement. They locked a 62 year old man in a room and tried to intimidate him into reversing a decision he knew was right for the people he represents. Harper should have accepted Casey's vote and held him up as an example of how the CPC actually is different from the LPC and how CPC members have integrity( a word we haven't heard since the election) He said they locked him in. I don't know when locking people in a room became a part of them waiting.

What goal is that? To pass the budget by 52 votes? Or just to maintian a dictatorial grip on the CPC MPs? Neither one is worthy imo.

Depends on whats at stake. I have no problem with kicking the living crap out of a kidnapper if his/her partner is still on the loose with the victim either. Depends on the circumstance. Locking a 62 year old man in a room because he feels he should do what is right and you want to bully him into supporting you, when you don't even need his support, is just disgusting.

Just a bit different than trying to change someones vote when it doesn't even make a difference to the outcome.

The mass transit tax break was good. Just budget details. Where? You mean the one most environmental groups scoffed at? Good, good, good, good good and good. YA and cost us a billion dollars. Another one I wouldn't be bragging about. Kind of had to what with the extended mission, marine security etc. As long as the CPC kept the money flowing to Quebec he had the support of the BQ. Not too hard to get something passed when a regional party is getting it's region pumped full of Federal funds. Sure they accomplished all of this. Some good, some bad, some really really bad. But the CPC did it. Kudos.

An act which they ignore. It is an empty policy. Good law, but it is not like it makes them special or anything. Ah yes, the "Every poor child Left behind " program. I wouldn't be bragging about this piece of garbage. The mission the Liberals started. Extening it should be a no brainer as the country is still a mess. Giving Quebec even more special status. Again not something I would be bringing up as a possitive. After costing the same people millions with the income trust flip flop. Ya Stevie's tax cut for his rich friends. Try cutting my personal income tax. OK. This was somethingI like. A bit expensive but it was needed. Again, although good it is not rocket science to see something had to be done. Just what part of all that money Harper threw at Quebec was fiscally balanced? ---------------------

LMAO Now Liberals are a bunch of Jew haters.

http://www.cbc.ca/cp/national/070605/n0605164A.html This is the Con's idea of a democratic process? Good Gawd, what next from this bunch of clowns. They wouldn't let him out!?! Nothing like some forceful confinement to try and bring someone around to your point of view.
