Let me frank: you have a very long history of speaking to myself and many others with a very disrespectful tone, with **** grinning faces, with the intent of constructing your posts in such a manner as to try to make the person you're addressing feel as bad as you possibly can. In short, you're not a nice person, you're a troll, and probably have some kind of sociopathic mental illness, and I don't want to debate with you any longer. I came to this board to get away from the **** mods and the **** trolls from the other board, and I wish i knew who the hell thought it was a good idea to invite you here.
So in short, I don't want to "debate" with you any more, i probably won't be responding to many if any of your posts anymore.
I share your exasperation and also state over the years you have given me great leeway and thank you for that. However your point is taken by me too. I plead guilty as well.
As for the topic itself, I would like to see a little more on Dimples. The worst insult to date I have heard about Scheer is he has been called a "policy wonk".
I have read up a bit about him and do not claim to be an expert but I will be voting or him and I used to be a blue Liberal (Martin Liberal) now I am a Tory. I first started off not liking Harper and towards the end was not happy with all the patronage spending, but I found him to be someone low in ego which made me respect him and I very much found his foreign policy refreshing. I also for the most part preferred his approach to the economy and his disdain for phony photo-ops and his plain spoken ways.
May I go out on a limb and say I bet some people who voted for Trudeau now would prefer the less flashy Harper. Scheer I find inoffensive. I think he has done his best to speak clearly, professionally and serve as Opposition leader. OK he is not charismatic and I won't put a poster of him in my bed-room as I did for Justins Bieber and Trudeau but at this point I think he is the best option. With due respect who else is there that bozo Bernier or Mr. Singh?
Mr. Singh I just do not believe has sufficient kahonies or knowledge of how government works nor control over his own party.
I think Lavalin has the potential to slowly leak more info and erode Liberal votes. Whether Bernier gets them now is up for question because when Bernier disappeared over Lavalin for fear of alienating Quebec voters he wants he showed his true self and I hope that strips him of any serious consideration by Liberals fed up with Trudeau.
