Handsome Rob Posted April 26, 2011 Report Posted April 26, 2011 So now that it has been shown you are lying about the story you dismiss it as a story. You are the one who brought it up. Sorry. I googled it after it was posted, because looking on the website yielded nothing. I'll try not to lie next time. Quote

Wild Bill Posted April 26, 2011 Report Posted April 26, 2011 Thank you! The best part is that this excerpt can be used equally well to support either side of the "Harper is a tyrant" fight. You've missed the point! What made this script so funny is that the peasants in this movie, which was written decades ago, are parodying the talk of so many British socialists at that time. They would stand on soap boxes in parks and make speeches very similar to the ones being lampooned in this Python scene! People with common sense, of ANY political stripe, would recognize that these speakers were anal-retentive nitpickers with no concept of ordinary life, fixated on leftwing political minutiae and making endless arguments so contrived and involved as to be almost impossible to understand, of value to no one who actually has a life! I was equating that sort of nonsense with the arguments continually being made by my quoted poster. I did not mean it as praise!

Slim MacSquinty Posted April 26, 2011 Report Posted April 26, 2011 No, the Left is relying on getting its money from ME. There are two main problems with the Left. One is it likes to take as much money as possible away from productive workers in order to encourage non-productive people to be even less productive. The second is their habit of presuming their superior morality, and insisting on bringing in laws to make people conform to that 'superior' morality. Exactly! Jack, Bob Rae and Iggy all suffer from a similar malady, as if their guilty feelings about being born into wealth and power would encourage them to give away their own money, not so but they're content to give away mine!
