Well, i've been following the issue, not the political race behind it. Come election time, it will factor into my overall decision on who to vote for.

Good.

That worked out really well for Harper in the last election.

You are sort of making my case for me. Bringing up Harper might reward you with some sort of political win on this thread.

Yet, you clearly seem oblivious about the fact that whatever you write about harper will have no influence on anyone going forward on this issue nor will it have any influence on how we vote in future elections.

I'll save you the pretense. You're going to vote Conservative.


Wait until election time. These little things might matter during a campaign. But that said, Islamophobia backfired on the Conservatives in 2015. This is different, but the attempted hateful polarizing is the same kind of gamble.

.

with 10.5 million dollar payouts, you are probably correct. But for the record, I have voted for both of the parties that you believe I never would have voted for,.

The Conservatives are the party of angry old men who have trouble rising to the occasion. Maybe Viagra would help make them human again... or not.

If you are young and not a liberal, you have no heart.

If you are old and not a conservative, you have no wisdom.

An angry old conservative made that up. Just cuz you're old don't make you smart or wise.

I find anger is a learned trait from the liberal church of hate.

And a smart liberal is someone with a whole lot of unseasoned education but not much common sense, ie wisdom.

Yes, people who are wise clearly lack common sense.

Said no one, ever.
