So, again I ask, what's your point with Colpy?
Click to expand...

That he isn't an expert on the subjects that I mention yet has opined and run away from them on may occasions.

Not even sure if he is an expert on the things he mentioned....haven't read any of is books lately.

As he accepts any debate on history I accept any on AGW and economics.

You just admitted to not being an expert in economics OR Climatology yet YOU opine on both. Make up your mind. Either one can make an opinion known on any subject or only on the subjects that they are "experts" on. If only on subjects that one is an expert in, then I request that you produce your credentials on a subject before posting on said subject in a timley manner so that those credentials can be verified. In the mean time, I don't expect to see you post anymore.

No, but reading a few books or taking a few courses dosen't make him one either.

Unless you are admitting defeat to what you were arguing with him about.

Wow........ Bears right....... Colpy never said he was an expert in economics or Climatology, the exact opposite actually. He did say he has degrees in both History and Poli-Sci however.

It was you that was going on about expertise, not anyone else.

Nope, sure desen't hurt my feelings.

Tells me that when a guy says he dosen't care about a subject as an excuse he is full of crap about it and dosen't know a damn thing about it.

That is the excuse he gives....yet opines about them all the time.

Weak beyond a doubt.

Sort of how you stopped posting about your obsession with little girls when you got found out.

Typical from a four eyed pink shirt nerd.:lol:

Now you're just lying. It obviously does effect you, and as for your obsession with young children grinding their crotches, there was not anything left to say. I and a few others had pointed out your obvious pengent for adolescent girls.

Stephen Harper and?

Actually it is not surprising that so few people know how our electoral system works. It is not like much that is important is taught in school. OTH i'm not sure I want some socialist teacher try to explain politics to a kid either.

the OP is somewhat worthless because the party leaders tell their members to vote the party line or get booted,
