I mean it's funny and all, but it's gotten to the point of absurdity now, lol.

then you should just stop it; again, read the rules, compose yourself... come back refreshed & recharged. And try harder.

I believe my read of the forum rules says stalking between threads is not allowed. Please cease and desist! Thanks for your consideration.

That is what the Ignore button is for. He seesm to be under the impression that he's not a troll.

LOL, no, I don't seem to be under the impression I'm not a troll. What an absolutely absurd thing to say. I freely admit I'm a troll. A Cannibal Troll, to be exact.

You see what I'm talking about now waldo?

You and Zipperherhead share the same shallow end of the gene puddle.

why are you in favour of a stupid Harper Conservative proposal that (per CD Howe) only benefits 15% of Canadian families... and of those, nearly half the benefits would flow to those who (probably) need the benefit the least... those making more than $100,000 per year. No benefits for those who, apparently, don't meet the Harper Conservative definition of a family (i.e., 2 working parents with children under 18years. Per the Harper Conservative Finance Department: "the income-splitting proposal will cost the treasury about $2.4 billion in foregone revenues in the current fiscal year, and an average of about $2 billion per year over the next five years"... bye, bye surplus on a hyped proposal that offers no benefits to the vast majority of Canadians! You know, "not a wise investment for Canadians"!


Let me see if I have this right, Waldo. You are against benefitting those the most who pay the most taxes and provide the most help to the rest of the population? Let me know if that's not right! :)

LIberals have been kicking the crap out of the middle class as long as I've been old enough to vote. But then, wasn't the Federal Liberals who insisted putting money into the pockets of the middle class would cause them to blow it on beer and popcorn.

"Don't give people 25 bucks a week to blow on beer and popcorn," Reid said during a panel discussion on CBC News: Sunday. "Give them child-care spaces that work. Stephen Harper's plan has nothing to do with child care."

You know what this reminds me of? Remember those kid's books "Where's Waldo"?

Yeah, I never wanted to find him either.

it seems like quite the insult-fest many of you are so ensconced in around here. I don't go out of my way to stir-the-shyte like many do around here... but I most certainly won't sit back and essentially enable the crap coming at me. Rather than back-slapping each other over the latest insult thrown, why not try, uhhh... you know, real dialogue, real meaningful discussion. Or are you guys just so far gone that insult/attack is your first reach, hey?


With Bear?

so, we have 2 liberal MP's kicked from caucus for sexual harassment and 1 liberal MP resigns after being found guilty of breaking election laws. Interesting.

You are correct. He was an independent.

was he... technically?

Del Mastro is the fifth Conservative parliamentarian to resign or face suspension since the 2011 election. Last year, three former Conservative senators were suspended over contested living and housing expenses, while former cabinet minister Peter Penashue resigned last year over improper campaign contributions.

no - I'm against an inequitable proposal that doesn't benefit all Canadians... how quaint of you to be so dismissive of, apparently to you, the great unwashed middle/lower-class.

Name me one thing that could be done to benefit ALL Canadians! I'm not dismissive of anyone, you just can't help the poor by beating on the rich. Someone figured that out 150 years ago, but apparently you are a little slow at getting the picture.:)

you're right.... I more correctly should have said 'to benefit the majority of Canadians'. Why couldn't the Harper Conservative income-splitting proposal been more inclusive to enable more Canadian families a benefit?

Good question! I doubt if there's a simple way of doing it.
