roflmao...... ok...... the small amount of entertainment you bring is starting run very thin. The idea that I am from the "lunatic left" is beyond hilarious, especially since I don't support a fair amount of the left wings bullshyte. I have never supported gore, nor do I subscribe to his or suzuki's global warming fear mongering. Maybe you should try taking those blinders off, not that I think it will really make a difference considering your extended age.
- gerryh ... Perhaps I am mistaken that you come off at least in your responses to my posts as being from the lunatic left wing fringe but I rather think that you are at the least a left winger who is confused and actually thinks she is simply a moderate liberal. You see, anybody not in his employ who thinks that Justin Trudeau is qualified to be prime minister and is doing a great job is certainly both gullible in the extreme and on the left wing of the Liberal Party. And you also really should check with your hero Justin on Gore and Suzuki and global warming because he certainly subscribes to all of the bull**** and hypocrisy and blown billions and third world transfers associated with the anti-global warming crusade and its champions. As to my extended age, unlike yourself I subscribe to the notion that the relevant experience and skills and judgement acquired through the years are actually great assets as, for example, they proved to be with John A. MacDonald and Winston Churchill and Konrad Adehauer and other seasoned political leaders. Obviously, you have contempt for age and relevant experience and believe that some young a$$hole who has never even held a full time job let alone accomplished anything or led a significant and complex organization can start at the top without qualifications. This explains your endorsement of Justin Trudeau and also your fawning over management trainee Obama.
- As to you not finding me entertaining, this is easily remedied by the ignore button which perhaps you should use in the future. But I doubt that you will anymore than JLM and a few others or the guy who used to phone my radio talk show from 3 to 6 times in every three hour program in order to tell my screener/producer that he never listened to me.
Thank you Teddy. This is a perfect example of the ad hominem attacks we need to stop on the House floor.
- Machjo ... You're welcome! I live to serve. But I do hope you will acknowledge that it is JLM who follows me around like some weird and obsessed cyberstalker and who obsessively and negatively responds to every post I make but who never adds anything of real substance and value in his ad hominem attacks on me. Now I can't help it if I am much better at retaliating than he is at attacking and I also should add that I often simply ignore him whereas he never ignores me and he even manages to insult me in threads in which I have had absolutely no participation.
- Your intervention reminds me of the time that Paul Martin (the father not Panama Paul) was castigating then prime minister Diefenbaker in the House for changing the order of debate of bills so that a bill came up several hours earlier than originally scheduled and accordingly the opposition MPs like Martin had less time to study the bill and prepare their speeches about it.
- "The prime minister is putting a gun to the head of this House!" thundered Paul Martin.
- "Mr. Speaker", responded Dief, "I'm not sure I understand what the honourable member means by me putting a gun to his head. In any case, there would be no damage done!".
- Good times and I should also add that Dief and Paul Martin Snr. were actually very good friends outside the combative atmosphere of the House and that Dief was the guest speaker at Paul's dinner in Windsor to mark his retirement from parliament.
