Oooh...a debate about comparative population growth! Why don't I visit this site more often?

Are my tax dollars going to persecute this lady? Shame on Harper and his minions. Nothing will be done until Harper sees more votes in doing something than in maintaining the status quo. A singular lack of class and ethics.

He won't answer for the very reason I don't date Conservative guys. No balls.

You think Obama reads your posts?

I agree that this lawsuit would have been a terrible attack on free speech in this country. Harper set a terrible precedent by suing the official opposition for their criticism of him. Now it appears politicians feel they can justifiably sue the media even when they report the truth, as it appears the CP did in this case. Imagine if the Liberals sued the media for reporting on Adscam. I find it unconscionable that Wall would even suggest that he would take this matter to court. Fortunately somebody quickly straightened him out.

Except you used to call yourself an Alberta Nationalist on your profile.

Hmm, who has more credibility? UN Secretary-General or anonymous internet poster? http://www.guardian.co.uk/Iraq/Story/0,2763,1305709,00.html

How come it's always the worst offenders who complain about insults?

Now you're doing exactly what he was doing.

I don't think you have a particularly profound, right-wing sense of nuance, especially when you can't recognize that racism exists in all cultures. I doubt all Kazakhs hate Jews, just as I doubt all southern rednecks hate blacks. Besides, having now seen the movie, it rarely even showed peoples' reactions when he spouted something anti-semitic, so I highly doubt his intent was to expose their excessive tolerance.

I think you're projecting errors on others rather than facing your own. I never discerned between people from other cultures and racists. In fact, you don't even know what culture I come from. You're automatically assuming everyone is coming from a white perspective, and they aren't. Now that you've seen the movie (I assume), you probably realize that your interpretation that it was an expose on undue tolerance of anti-semitism was half-baked and out to lunch.

Because anything else is meaningless. It certainly isn't courageous, as you've tried to make it out to be. Saying you support people dying for a lie is not supporting them, and unless you're willing to join them, you're just hurting them.

Were you on drugs when you typed the thread title?

I'm saying they aren't a sacrifice. I've sacrificed nothing to be here, as have you. Real support involves sacrifice, not empty platitudes.

If you were capable of clearly making your point, I wouldn't have to over-simplify. But you're just confusing the issue more. Is this film a statement that people are too tolerant of racism or a statement, as you originally seemed to state, that people are too politically correct and too tolerant of other cultures?

If you weren't indifferent, you would make sacrifices. Cindy Sheehan has made a lot of sacrifices and she's a supposedly indifferent "lefty". What are your sacrifices, plagiarizing chickenhawk?

You think it's a statement that people are too tolerant of anti-semitism?

Speaking out anonymously. One step up would be a visit to your Armed Forces recruitment centre. Until then, you aren't really supporting anything.

Sasha Baron Cohen is a jew. The movie is a parody. The character he plays is an anti-semite to be laughed at. These are all indisputable facts that I can't believe you just don't get. You're even thicker than I thought.

He's a jew. He's parodying anti-semites. Where's the nuance?

You enlisted? Or you said "yeh team" from a safe distance?

And how do you courageously stand up to them? Did you risk your life doing so?

I don't think you get it. It's making fun of racist people, not condoning them.

I assume you mean the "Royal We" because you're far too much of a coward to actually enlist.
