I can't believe relatively how many conservative trolls you get on here. They love you. What's your secret? My guess is the problem is that some of your posts acknowledge your identification with the federal Liberals. I'm thinking we don't really get any on our blog because we are pretty nonpartisan, and the trolls are unable to attack ideas unless they can link them to a specific party, and therefore a specific set of CPC/Blogging Tories talking points.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31415271.post-29323221696794805082008-10-20T17:03:00.000-06:002008-10-20T17:03:00.000-06:00Karen - it is about time that reasonable people li...Karen - it is about time that reasonable people like you started to engage with the same dedication to enlightenment and fairness as the Con-Trolls do with their misleading positioning.<BR/><BR/>I used to sit back and do nothing because the positions of the Reform/Alliance types was so absurd. Letting them have all the air time by disengaging on thier efforts that made their positions normalized through repetition and media coverage.<BR/><BR/>A lie said 7 times becomes normalized and takes on an aura of true. McCain is doing that with allegations of Obama's relationship with an "unrepentant domestic terrorist."<BR/><BR/>Harper did it with the "dysfuntional Parliament" ruse to call an unnecessary election in breach of his own fixed election laws.<BR/><BR/>Thx for speaking out and keep it coming Karen. It is the only way to defeat this kind of deceit.kenchapmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11384045981190810115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31415271.post-15373614548510850212008-10-20T12:23:00.000-06:002008-10-20T12:23:00.000-06:00Anonymous...how dare you suggest that Mr. Dion has...Anonymous...how dare you suggest that Mr. Dion has/had no decency? All HE wanted was power? (as opposed of course to Mr. Harper who just called the election for 'clarity' - not because he wanted the power of a majority). Mr. Dion has more decency in his pinkie finger than you -'Anonymous' - have in your whole body. People of integrity and decency post with their real name or run for office. Which exactly have you done? <BR/><BR/>Ken, why do you allow these partisan hacks on your blog to spout these lies? The Conservative way is to just repeat a lie often enough and people will believe it.

So I ams supposed to move to France and eat "freedom fries" because I disagree? <BR/><BR/>A multimillion dollar character assisination on Dion in the television campaign for over 2 years using taxpayer subsidized funds to escape election campaign accountability was acceptable to Harper and his supporters! This is decency and fairness? <BR/><BR/>Besides Harper did lie and the truth is the truth about Harper in that regard.kenchapmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11384045981190810115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31415271.post-9774901620613119122008-10-19T19:51:00.000-06:002008-10-19T19:51:00.000-06:00Harper HAS been governing - you just don't like th...Harper HAS been governing - you just don't like the direction (maybe you should move to Europe or something).<BR/><BR/>Dion is insincere. He verbally attacked a CTV reporter after his blundered interview. He then continued with attack ads and ended by calling Harper a liar. That is just unbecoming. Now he is being stubborn and waiting until Monday to quit. He is only doing this so he can transfer his personal debt to the LPC. I would be upset at that approach if I were a liberal.<BR/><BR/>Dion has no personal decency - all he wanted was power and was willing to do anything to get it. He will go down in history as such - a shameful disgrace.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31415271.post-64368944572683748042008-10-19T16:01:00.000-06:002008-10-19T16:01:00.000-06:00Dion insincere???

You lack a generous spirit Anon and that seems typical of the Con-Trolls who comment on this Blog. <BR/><BR/>Dion's loss is due to many factors. One of them is the Harper Party deceit trumping the personal decency of Dion.<BR/><BR/>Sad for Dion. Sad for Canada. Particularly because you are the kind of people who now going have power over our lives. It is time for Harper's Party to govern the country instead of politicing with personal attack ads on Dion.
