Like asses and heads, with politicians, they're interchangeable parts. Tweedledumb fits any party..:lol:
Oh. I thought he had a nickname for someone specific.
It's Tweedledum, BTW. lol It's partner is Tweedledee.
From "Through The Looking Glass" and "What Alice Found There" by L. Carroll,OR from the Batman comics by DC, Dumfree and Deever Tweed.
Also, I was under the impression that these subhumans had rather small heads and large asses.
and cannot be equally interchanged as heads fit in asses but not asses into heads. lmao

Ignatieff at the moment I guess, or Layton or Elizabeth May......................they're all tarred with the same brush.
I have to disagree, Harper is doing quite well right now..........unemployment is dropping, real estate business is picking up, our dollar is at or near a high, Harper is toughening up on crime, lowered taxes for seniors- all the money he lent to G.M. has been repaid (indicating an improvement in business climate) You really want to try for something different? :smile:
And the people gave the Conservatives two chicken little mandates (minorities)back to back.:roll:
"Idiots like you are the measure by which people judge the membership. Who in Hell would ever want to be associated with as loud-mouthed a bigot as you."
LW sorry if I have offended you, as for idiots like me giving the Liberals a bad name, I don’t make Liberal policies thus I can’t see how people would judge the Liberals on what I say or believe.
As for who would want to associate with people like me, for your information many, I have friends in high places and I have friends in low places I am quite happy with what I have accomplished with regards to social circles. Besides, I am not looking to compare my self to you or any one else. Bottom line you can call me a Liberal hack, and I can tell you the Conservatives suck worse then the Liberals.
Let's live it there and in the future you don’t respond to my posts and I won't respond to yours. That works for me as long as it works for you. As to whether or not I am an idiot you are entitled to your opinion as I am to my. Again sorry if I have offender you pal.
Well, we needed a break from the scams, destruction of public services, and patronising of rich pals.

Well, we'll have to agree to disagree. I see largest deficit in history - with no honest plan to get out, raising of EI rates (i.e. increasing taxes on the working class vs GST cuts with benefits the rich more), increasing the tax burden on our kids and grandkids, no action on Healthcare or the environment, lip service to tough on crime - but toughing laws that really don't affect anything - while cutting services that help the police do their job, a high dollar which is damaging to the manufacturing sector of our economy (but who cares so long as the oil companies are happy), tinkering with senate reform, but most worrisome no real plan to address parliamentary reform, increasing the size and power of the PMO, silencing his caucus, not defending our citizens overseas, lying to the population about how our parliamentary system works (re: coalition governments and their constitutionality), passing laws and then breaking them (fixed election dates), etc...
Sorry, because he was handed a strong economy that was pretty well insulated from the banking mess that the US created (even though he did try to introduce a "sub-prime" culture here with 0/40 mortgages and relaxing banking regulations) doesn't cut it.
The only reason we fared well was because he didn't damage the system as much as he wanted too....that is not good governance. It is pure luck. Thank God for minority governments.
That, too.
On the other hand, we have the Liberal history of corruption, crippling essential services like education and health care, patronisation of rich buddies, etc.
We are between a rock and a hard place. The only thing to do is climb out or dig out and I can't see anyone around willing to pick up a shovel or rope, carabiners, and pitons.

Well the economy did go into the crapper, not only because of the yankee banking mess. Canada's economy seems to be on the right track for recovery and GM has already paid back their loan. Seems the Conservatives are making the right decisions...
Yeah - why did they do that - oh, right - the threat of being toppled and replaced by the opposition (aka coalition).
I trust Harper to do the right thing - when he has no other options.
And before any gets all over me for Ignatieff - I am not supporting him. I am glad he is taking position on items (finally) - but he has swung left. What I want is a change of leadership of the Conservative Party. Harper is the only reason that party has not gotten a majority.
LOL, No, they did the right thing because they know the right thing when they see it, not like the gliberals you support...
And this is the other BS that I can't stand about the Harper Conservatives - and his supporters. Because I don't think the man walks on water, and the sun doesn't shine out of his rear, I'm a "gliberal."
I'll be clear - the Liberal party is corrupt, self-serving and out of touch. They are a party on the decline because they stand for nothing. The ONLY thing they did that I give them credit for is eliminating the deficit and paying down the debt.
When Harper came in he promised a more open, accountable transparent government. He promised more open votes, more power to MPs, and less power from the PMO. He has done none of that. He has proven that he is just as self-serving and out of touch as the Liberals. The corruption in that party may bot have taken the form of "stealing" money - but he spits on our democratic institutions and human freedom/rights - which is just as bad (if not worse) in my opinion. He is not fit to be PM.
Just because he may be the "best of the lot" doesn't mean that I will sing his praises.
