Battletoads Posted March 8, 2011 Report Posted March 8, 2011 Firstly, I don't consider myself a Harper hater, I just don't think he makes a good PM for Canada. That being said, Harper himself, is the reason canada's international reputation took a nose dive. He doesn't stand up for Canadians outside of the country when in trouble, unless he can benefit from it. In 2007, was the worse year for Canada's reputation because he didn't stand up for Khadr or the other Canadian man, who had to live in the Canadians Embassy. The Canadians who the US called terrorist and tortured, where was the PM, no were. Yep, the country was better off when harper was an honest Albertan wingnut.

You're one of the most die-hard Harper critics on this forum. If Harper dived in front of a train to save a dozen orphan children you'd still find an angle to criticize him for it.

Moonbox Posted March 8, 2011 Report Posted March 8, 2011 Yep, the country was better off when harper was an honest Albertan wingnut. A matter of opinion fortunately! One that ~40% of Canadians, unfortunately for you, disagree with.

Battletoads Posted March 8, 2011 Report Posted March 8, 2011 A matter of opinion fortunately! One that ~40% of Canadians, unfortunately for you, disagree with. In other words a majority of Canadians believe harper to be a wingnut? Good to hear you admit it! Thats the first step. Quote "You can lead a Conservative to knowledge, but you can't make him think."
Mr.Canada Posted March 8, 2011 Report Posted March 8, 2011 In other words a majority of Canadians believe harper to be a wingnut? Good to hear you admit it! Thats the first step. Martin and Chretien had even lower numbers the PM Harper does right now. What does that tell you.

Battletoads Posted March 8, 2011 Report Posted March 8, 2011 Martin and Chretien had even lower numbers the PM Harper does right now. What does that tell you. I already knew that 9/10 baby boomers were as dumb as nails, so that tells me nothing. Quote "You can lead a Conservative to knowledge, but you can't make him think."
Moonbox Posted March 8, 2011 Report Posted March 8, 2011 In other words a majority of Canadians believe harper to be a wingnut? Good to hear you admit it! Thats the first step. Nope sorry! 40% vote for him as PM. I already knew that 9/10 baby boomers were as dumb as nails, so that tells me nothing. and what...you're a shining bastion of intellect?

Battletoads Posted March 9, 2011 Report Posted March 9, 2011 Nope sorry! 40% vote for him as PM. afaik the highest the conservatives have ever polled under harper is 37%... You know, outside of majority territory... and what...you're a shining bastion of intellect? Well, compared to you I am, though I don't know if that's much of an accomplishment.

M.Dancer Posted March 9, 2011 Report Posted March 9, 2011 afaik the highest the conservatives have ever polled under harper is 37%... You know, outside of majority territory... Yiu mean aside from the poll last week that showed a 40ish% 43% wasn't it? Quote RIGHT of SOME, LEFT of OTHERS If it is a choice between them and us, I choose us
Battletoads Posted March 9, 2011 Report Posted March 9, 2011 (edited) Yiu mean aside from the poll last week that showed a 40ish% 43% wasn't it? I meant to say that 37% was their highest election result, my mistake. Edited March 9, 2011 by Battletoads Quote "You can lead a Conservative to knowledge, but you can't make him think."
PIK Posted March 9, 2011 Author Report Posted March 9, 2011 It's not self-hatred, it's foolish partisan politics. Not the same thing. Seriously, it's the Canadian Right, or sectors of it, who unequivocally wish we were more like the United States, and less like Canada. Are they self-haters? the argument is stronger in their case. That is BS. Quote Toronto, like a roach motel in the middle of a pretty living room.
PIK Posted March 9, 2011 Author Report Posted March 9, 2011 I already knew that 9/10 baby boomers were as dumb as nails, so that tells me nothing. And they are the ones that have the big paychecks, the one retiring with the big pensions. Quote Toronto, like a roach motel in the middle of a pretty living room.
