Big Blue Machine

The Republicans will never nominate McCain, he's too moderate (liberal in wolf's clothing).

Err, I'm sorry but I'm probably not going to read it because I don't like reading that is critical or offensive towards conservative leaders.

http://www.canadianbusiness.com/new...tent=b07160 8A This is great news for Ontario car workers. This shows that Canadians are better workers and are more dilagent in working. I hope Ontario continues to make more and more cars.

There are 75 Quebec seats and 106 Ontario seats compared to 94 seats in the West. There's more to be gained when we have a Ontario or Quebec leader.

"Us" means us conservatives. I feel that we as conservatives could actually win an election, if we had a better leader at the helm.

I think he should. His lack of personality/unknownness is too big a liability for us. Hopefully we need a leader from Quebec or Ontario (I know Harper was born in Ontario but he's still a westerner). A leader from Quebec would also be good because then Quebeckers can relate to him/her more and understand him/her more.

Don't worry, there's still lots of time for him to trip and fall on his face.

But I see myself as one, so there.

Remember its for years 14 to 25.

I hope I will have a platform that most people will like. The biggest task is winning the nomination in my riding. Everything after that is easy.

Well: "Aganist Abortion on demand, but if it threatens the woman's life then yes. -For civil unions (keep marriage between man and woman). -Pro gay rights (except right to marry, again marriage is between man and woman)." I totally agree and I am in no way a "red tory". Your views are quite in line with Stephen Harper's views and he isn't a "red tory". Perhaps you equate "red tory" with being a balanced conservative. You certainly aren't a reactionary or far right winger, even though the left would like us to think our views are radical. In fact I think so called red tories are worse than Liberals by virtue of the fact that they are Liberals in denial. Liberals like Joe Clark and David Orchard do our cause a lot of harm by pretending to be Conservative. They split us up from with in by encouraging intolerance of differing opinions. It's fine if we have a few evangelicals in the party who are completely opposed to abortion or whatever. We don't have to let one point of disagreement tear us apart. We have more in common than not. We need to be more like the Republicans in the US who have room for the Guliannis and the Buchanans. But instead we act like the Democrats bickering and fighting within and intolerant of any difference of opinion. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You be surprised, I can be liberal on some issues and very conservative on issues.

Canada should have a European style health care system, their system works...

Who is Hugh again. I know a Hugh that lives in Toronto. But he can't come.

But will anyone from this forum come?

But Liberals don't like minority gov't, they want majorities. And Martin has only delieverd a minority and has almost lost power a couple of times. If the Liberals don't get a majority, then that shows Martin's inability as a leader.

If he doesn't win a majority in the next election, then he's out as leader.

What is it?

Anyone?

Economic Left/Right: 0.75 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 2.36

Heck I'd vote for ya BBM! I thought you were a red Tory. Glad to see you are not. (have to work on that single tier health care though ) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> How am I not a Red Tory?

Don't worry, I haven't said anything that could be used against me.

Hello, Would it be ok if I inform the forum about a Young Conservatives of Niagara BBQ-B happening on Saturday July 23rd. This is the information outline. Hello Again Ladies and Gentlemen! Well the summer has finally arrived! One generally associates good times, great food, hot music, beautiful beaches (populated with even more beautiful women) and cold beer with the summer months. We therefore have decided to combine each and every one of the above criteria into our upcoming event. On Saturday July 23rd, 2005 get ready for: "The First Annual Young Conservatives of Niagara (YCN) Beef on the Beach BBQ-B" (The extra "B" is for Booze!) Due to the overwhelming success of our Conservative Youth Night/Gala held on June 15th, 2005 we have decided to hold a BBQ on the beachfront in beautiful Port Dalhousie. Imagine spending a day at the beach surrounded by like-minded people enjoying beautiful surroundings, great food and fun activities. We have already reserved the beachfront and beach volleyball courts through the City of St. Catharines Parks and Recreation. And we are presently working on the obtaining of a liquor venders permit (lets keep our fingers crossed!). Alcohol will be served to those 19 years of age and older. We are aiming for a turnout of no less than eighty (80) people. The event is slated to begin at 12:00pm NOON and will last as long as people wish to stay; we will NOT be setting a formal end time. Below you will find our price list for food/non-alcoholic beverages (alcohol prices will be set upon receipt of the liquor vender's permit): 100% Alberta Beef Hamburgers: $2.25 ea. Authentic German Sausages: $2.50 ea. 100% Beef Hotdogs: $1.50 ea. Pop/Soda: $1.00 ea. Bottled Water: $1.25 ea. As with our last event we will have a list of distinguished guest speakers who will be addressing those in attendance. Please be advised that as July 23rd approaches we will be e-mailing you with further updates including a speaker's list/format in which the event will follow. So remember. this is the FIRST ANNUAL YCN BBQ-B! Become part of a tradition sure to last many years to come. Make sure to bring out all your friends/family members between the ages of 14-25; they wont regret it! Sincerely, Carl Hayes

Ask Malcolm Azania about that. Granted, 10 years is a lot shorter than 40, but its still something to consider. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Pardon, I didn't get quite what you meant?

There was much to admire in the man, but he wasn't a god. The government can't make the economy grow any more than it can make trees grow. The government, like the gardener, has only the power to trim and pluck and restrict. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And water the plants too.

The topic is about me. If I were Premier and taxes needed to be raised, I would raise them.
