See? That's called having a closed mind. It's called living in a fog. Preconceived notions that only serve your ill gotten philosophies.
If you even bothered to read my whole response I laid out exactly why I wouldn't vote for him. that is not a closed mind, it is an educated opinion (I have a degree in economics and commerce) his policies are fundementaly flawed. I can agree with some of his positions on ther issues but he is so far wrong in the economics I cannot support him. No fog there!
See how the other leaders kept doing that? A little dig here and there when then could? That's called a cheap shot and that's what little children who have no business running the country do. It's a cheap shot because it's "thrown in" as a side comment, midstream while answering the main topic. Cheap shot.
Hmmm, what did you expect ina leadership debate? A campfire and kumbyah?
Of course you don't because he stands for everything you don't believe in. You have a relative philosophy. Right is wrong, blue is black, a jar of piss is "art". Mr. Harper has the intelligence and has the self respect to never adhere to such nonsense.
What did you expect? Him to speak like the "messiah" Obama? "This is the moment that our oceans stopped rising and our planet began to heal!"
I could say the same about your support for him but I won't resort to demeaning your intelligence and integrity. Instead I will ask you to define which of his policies you support and why?
We don't need the greens and the commies getting representation unless the people mandate it. As it ever occurred to you that their platform, ideologies, and experience, aren't very strong and that's why the people aren't attracted to them?
The Greens had almost as many votes in the last election as the Bloc, 6% of the vote vs 7% yet the greens got 0 seats while the Bloc got 50. Do you think that is fair? Are you scared to let other opinions into our political system?
Also, I wouldn't say our system if broken. The green party has a candidate in every riding. Canadians could give them a majority if they wanted to. Leave it to free thought, don't manipulate the system give inexperienced people representation they don't deserve.
It is not about winning in a FPTP system we are talking about, is is about giving more people and their views direct representation in parliament. Harper formed the government last time with 37% of the vote, hardly a mandate of the will of the people. 63% wanted someone other than who was PM, think about that in relation to democracy for a moment.
See? So committed to the living in fog not even a cool hard million wouldn't budge you!
OK, for a cool million, untaxable, he can have my vote!
You would do well though to lower the demeaning tone of your posts and talk logically about the facts and issues, just a suggestion because continually repeating everyone who disagrees with Harper or your opinion is 'living in a fog' makes you look bad.;-)
