Uh, I belive you meant that the conservatives had been silencing critics in the past six years don't you? Must have been a typo when you wrote "Liberals".

Notwithstanding the events of the past six years, of course.

A sitting president with his own profitmaking schemes and self-interests dressed as foreign policy is by far more dangerous.

Shhh.... Moral victories are for wimps. We conservatives are quite happy that Harper has been pandering to the left wing. Yes, we can feel that a majority is within reach.

You haven't noticed that Harper has been acting like a Liberal since December 3rd? Of course, he's just trying to say and do anything to get elected.

Industry-coded language meaning "work longer hours for less pay".

Actually, scientists during the Renaissance era developed the scientific method and performed science looking for God's handiwork. The more observations they made, the more they found contradictions to common belief and the Bible. This would be the description of Creation Science. It would reject results that contradicted the Bible because it already holds preconcieved conclusions before even making the first experiements.

So we can say that this 5% was an.....anomoly?

At least he wasn't complaining about their English. I bet these doctor taxi drivers know how to use apostrophes and possessives.

Is it so important that an omnipotent, omniscient GOD to be so lacking in confidence he would rather just have you believe in him than for you to just behave morally? Surely an omniscient GOD can see through any deception so what difference does it really make? (Dawkins) Perhaps GOD is simply the Theory of Everything (which physicists haven't fully completed).

In the list of all the anomolies humans have when compared to other animals here on earth, homosexuality is not one of them. Homosexuality and other deviant sexual behaviour have been consistently observed in 1500 species. As far as I know, humans are the only animal that beats up homosexuals.

Wow. If anybody ever needs an example of strawman, here it is. And the rest of the post is dripping with double-standards. It would be hard to believe that Christ, who spent alot of time challenging authority and who spent alot of time with social outcasts and would agree with this posting.

And to think, he only became Labour Leader because the previous guy (who was also charismatic and popular) suddenly died. What would have been.... Tony Blair stepping into the spotlight now!!

I think it's sad and unfortunate. Tony Blair ran a good government - until he started listening to George Bush. Then all of is accomplishments got overshadowed and his credibility just went down the drain.

Back to the original topic: It's funny how we come to this conclusion after the latest war. But in buildup of the next war, this is all forgotten or shrugged off as irrelevant. Note: Iraq War part 2 and the criticism of the UN.

All true. What other animal cuts his hair, cooks his food, wears clothing, etc. Man is an anomoly only here after (long after) the dinosaurs died out. So in the big scheme of things, homosexuality amongst all the other anomolies is so trivial. Ah, but there's the rub. Humans are an anomaly in nature, but homosexuality is an anomaly in humanity. Ah but can't you see the parallel? If the irrational hatred against homosexuality is just, then all of humanity should subject itself to that same irrationality.

All true. What other animal cuts his hair, cooks his food, wears clothing, etc. Man is an anomoly only here after (long after) the dinosaurs died out. So in the big scheme of things, homosexuality amongst all the other anomolies is so trivial.

Working 9 to 5, 5 days a week with vacation is an anomoly. What other animal on this planet does this? The human animal was meant to live in the woods hunting and gathering.

So an American soldier's life isn't worth piss to any US president who does that.

Imagine GW is so incompetent that his only notable accomplishment was making even Reagan look good. From Eisenhower, Nixon, Ford, Reagan, HW Bush, to GW Bush - if the trend continues, history will treat GW kinder since the next Republican President will be even dumber.

For me, it'll take more than admit that Iraq was a mistake for me to support Harper. He's got to also admit that everything he stood for since 1987 was wrong and we will never represent those positions again in the future. As for Iraq, the people responsible for initiating the war has not admitted to any mistake. They just admitted they hadn't managed it properly. So imagine they're trying the same thing on Iran.

No one accomplishment stands out when he had to tackle the piles and piles of mess the Conservatives left behind. But note how labour disputes were handled. What a relief to have peace and management instead of eight years on constant war!!!

That's what Harper has accomplished in 13 months (that's months not 13 years)

Clean air, clean water, animals, old growth forests - bad. Guns, fossil fuels, acid rain - good.

Guess that means the CBC will be the next target for cuts.
