One might think some of the more sensible membership would ask what Whodat the Harris clone has to offer - other than Kindergarten BS

One could also ask the same thing about Wynne.

Maybe its time to do attack ads on Tories and maybe their families as well
Find anything that any of them did and tell the world about it whether it has
any value or not. Not for political gain but to let it hit close to home for some
of these people who think its fine to behave like this during a non election
period
I know it would be uncalled for and nasty and pointless and all the rest of it
to attack family members and go back fifty years of what they might have
done, I am sure they could come up with some really mean trivia and let fly.
There would be enough dirty linen to satisfy everyone from the media to the
folks at entertainment tonight.
That won't happen but perhaps its time they got a taste of their own medicine.

Ummmm... Rob Ford?

Have you seen an attack ad?

Those are not attack adds. They are delusional rantings of the lunitic left. Some are actually quite humerous. Especally when sitting in BC.

When I have nothing good to say about myself, the next best thing id to tear the competition down to my level or lower.

besides, it's a lot easier to do that than to actually make myself better, eh.

but we cannot blame only the politicians when voters reward this kind of behaviour.

When a kid bashes another it's called bullying and frowned upon.
When an adult bashes a spouse it's called abuse and frowned upon.
When a politician bashes another politician, it's called government. Maybe if they spent more time on improvement and less on coveting the power, we wouldn't be in the mess in which we find ourselves now....

And if people started voting in candidates based on character and competence rather than on how good they are at throwing witty one-liners, tht might remove the incentive for them to act that way to begin with.

That might work if people got the opportunity to cast their ballots directly AT the morons with bullymouth. Until that happens, shoudn't they (in leadership roles) BE the examples of tact and diplomacy?

They should. But at the same time, if acting like schoolyard bullies actually WINS them votes, guess what...

 

[lone wolf]

Sure being a badass is going to win the admiration of anyone with two brain cells less. Is that a win - or a run-a-fencepost-and-I'll-vote-for-it mentality?

And sometimes, when people bash a group they become an 'ite' or have somehow developed a 'phobia' or created an 'ism'.

... And when an adult in a public forum uses the words and actions of another person to highlight the questionable ethical practices, experience and duplicity to inform the public - it's known as calling a spade-a-spade

Hudak's being an azz on a on a public forum now?

Problem is the ones you are looking for won't run for office because of what we have to put up with.
