GOD BLESS CANADA!

[Guest eureka]

If you had organized your post a little better, it might have been intelligible.

My current signature is the assessment of one of the most brilliant minds the Labour movement produced. It amuses me and I have been waiting for some reaction. Something that attempts to show that is not an accurate assessment.

The lower than vermin thought probably comes from the belief that most actual vermin care for their own whie Conservatives willingly condemen their fellow humans to misery. As do the Conservatives in this election.

Flip the coin, eureka. Don't you think conservatives haven't had to do the same for the last 13 years?

Use the full context of the quote by Bevan was not done: Policy states: "you agree that you will not copy, reproduce, alter, modify, create derivative works, or publicly display any content (except for your own personal, non-commercial use)". http://en.thinkexist.com/quotes/aneurin_bevan/

I have searched other websites with Bevan's quotes - they all carry copywrites.

“No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred for the Tory Party . . . So far as I am concerned they are lower than vermin.” -- Aneurin Bevan

Eureka,

Considering the the nature of the mischaraterization of your own quote, I'd be less than surprised to hear you were the author of the Liberal Party smear ads. They were all similarly editorialized to suit whatever vitriole they felt was necessary.

You should really go down to your local Liberal Campaign Center and help out. I suspect you'd fit in well.

ZZZZZZiiing!

It's wrong to 'editorialize' these quotes. It also wasn't an unfair paraphrase by Eureka though, and without quotation marks, he wasn't directly quoting.

I know that. But he paraphased the statement as if it were fact when in really it was an opinion. That's a mischaracterization from whence I come.

True, I've been defending eureka far too much (I agreed with him twice in as many days) for my Verminial reputation to handle though. Must go back to condeming people to misery.

Conservatives can't have hearts afterall, modern day tinmen (PC- tinpeople).

I suspect that sharing is a dirty word to most of today's Conservatives. On the other hand, didn't Harper promise to share the wealth by throwing out the capital gains tax? That will sure help lower the tax burden for Canada's poor.

Eureka, I've been travelling in Asia for the past month and just returned. What's happened to this board in the interim? It used to have some balance of views but now it sounds like Free Dominion.

It will be interesting to watch Harper once the campaign is over and he's PM. Since he couldn't get along even with Preston Manning who appointed Herb Grubel rather than Harper as Reform Finance Critic, it should be highly entertaining to watch Harper make cabinet appointments. Given the inherent selfishness of Conservatives, they're all going to want lucrative cabinet positions.

Will the religious nuts in his caucus be in cabinet? Will he appoint any women? Looks like Nina Grewal will be re-elected. Perhaps she can be Minister of Justice. Pulling her strings will keep Gurmant busy and out of trouble as well. Poor Gurmant is still being investigated by the RCMP. Maybe Nina can pardon him. What about public backstabber and liar Peter MacKay? Harper can show he's serious about restoring truth and honesty to government by not putting MacKay in cabinet. Alternatively, Harper can go the Brian Mulroney route. Sleazy, lying cabinet ministers were a hallmark of the Mulroney era and Harper can show us he'll maintain that tradition by appointing liar MacKay. We'll know soon enough.

And of course all the new Conservative MPs and future cabinet ministers who'll be elected in Quebec this time will be beyond corruption...just like in the Mulroney era.

Now now Argus, you know better than to break the "no insult" rule.

Hate to break it to you, but the 'no insult' rule is broken most regularly by the other poster, in fact, I'm surprised the moderator allows it.

Neither am I, I'm conservative but if I were American I doubt I would vote republican. George Bush is not my hero nor is he my guru. Its pretty sad that all liberals can come up with is anti americanisms to smear conservative supporters.

I can think of a couple of other ones, one would be that they have incredibly short memories. If you disagree explain why they keep going back and not only voting conservative but actually trumpet the cause.

CHUCKMAN wins the prize for the most insipid, cloying, crap-filled post in recent times.

I'm VERY surprised it wasn't worded more like......

Steven Harper has been overheard saying "God bless Canada".

God.

Bless.

Canada.

In speeches.

Here.

In Canada.

In our cities.

Do you really want God on our side, when you we have Paul Martin instead???

Choose your Canada.

That post has all the same credibility as the Lib's "Troops in our cities" ad.

IOW none to speak of.

Additionally, being that it's yet another "new member" with only one post, I believe it's a spam-troll.

Hicksey:

And don't forget that should Harper be elected he'll be out raping old ladies, burning down black churches, beating up gays and just causing overall chaos and pandemonium--

You forgot that Canadian grandmas will be reduced to eating cat food, all because of Harper's immoral taxcuts for the wealthy.

Yeah, Argus only breaks it when he knows he's lost the argument.
