jbg Posted August 9, 2006 Report Posted August 9, 2006 Tell me there is no Harper and MacKay divide again ... I here there are people in Ottawa starting a MacKay movement... I've always felt that MacKay should not have External Affairs (or whatever they're calling it these days). Quote Free speech: "You can say what you want, but I don't have to lend you my megaphone." Always remember that when you are in the right you can afford to keep your temper, and when you are in the wrong you cannot afford to lose it. - J.J. Reynolds. Will the steps anyone is proposing to fight "climate change" reduce a single temperature, by a single degree, at a single location? The mantra of "world opinion" or the views of the "international community" betrays flabby and weak reasoning (link).
geoffrey Posted August 9, 2006 Report Posted August 9, 2006 It's how PM's deal with the thorn in their side, send them abroad. There is a historical context. Quote RealRisk.ca - (Latest Post: Prosecutors have no "Skin in the Game") --
moxi Posted August 9, 2006 Author Report Posted August 9, 2006 Not far enough away... Allan Riddell (everyone remembers this loser.. suing the party) and a small group are recruiting for a PMforPM underground campaign. Quote
Charles Anthony Posted August 9, 2006 Report Posted August 9, 2006 People enjoy soap operas and dirt. It makes politics exciting and gives a human face. A "divide" between leading politicians makes people talk about them. Remember the "Chretien-Martin" divide? All of the people who liked Chretien, liked Chretien more because of the battle. All of the people who liked Martin, liked Martin even more because he would save the party. On-the-fence-liberals either took sides or felt comfortable that SOMEBODY will rescue Canada and still be able to fight the Conservatives. Also, since Chretien will eventually leave and Martin eventually take over, all Liberals have an out: this is a new party -- not to be associated with the old party. All Liberals are happy together again -- except for Sheila Copps. Believe it or not, I have heard people tell me that there was never animosity between Chretien and Martin. Never. Go figure. I do not know who to believe about that but we will likely see the same thing with the Conservatives later in the future. I do not think this is a deliberately planned out strategy. It just seems like once the ball starts rolling, human nature takes over and this is the result that we get. Quote We do not have time for a meeting of the flat earth society. << Où sont mes amis ? Ils sont ici, ils sont ici... >>
