"bastards" is not a profanity.

Ms. elie betito, no doubt a hero to the brainless DUmmies.

[Pessimist]

What's "riding" as used in this article?

Canada News!
You don't have to be a Canadian to be on this Canada ping list.
On or off...Just let me know. :-)

What we would call a congressional district.

Electoral district.

The president of the Oakville Liberal riding association has resigned after telling a voter unhappy with gun control to take her "gun loving ass back to the U.S."

All Americans can feel the love, compassion and tolerance from this Canadian liberal.

"bastards" is not a profanity.

See my tagline.

I am of the somewhat outside opinion that Canadians, even Ontarians, are revulsed by the ongoing Liberal shenanigans, and will vote for the other parties on Jan. 23rd.

This will result in a minority Conservative government, supported by the NDP, hopefully, and if not, by the Bloc.

Cons: 117

Lib: 89

BQ: 63

NDP: 37

Ms. elie betito, no doubt a hero to the brainless DUmmies.

I'm sure Betito has already accepted a job offer from Paul Martin's campaign.

The term is also found in Britain as well. It's origins go back to the time when an areas representative rode horseback. How much of an area, or number of villages could be reached in a day or week by "riding" a horse.

Today such an area would be known as a Gulfstream V.

Canada's Liberals sound as unhinged as Carolyn Parrish. Guess its the NRA's fault that Canada can't get a handle on its crime problem!

A riding is a Canadian equivalent to a U.S Congressional or State lower house district. Both the federal and provincial Parliaments have members elected from ridings.

I predict another Liberal Government. There are just too brain-dead sheeple to swing Ontario to the Conservatives. But anything can happen. If I'm wrong, then I'll happily eat crow here on FR.

""take your NRA gun loving ass back to the U.S. where you belong."

She can come on down to Texas, I would welcome her here. Not only would she be able to protect herself, she wouldnt freeze HAO most of the year.

If the tide begins to go even slightly against the Libs, Many folks will find a reason to vote otherwise than Liberal.

The Liberals are a criminal conspiracy disguised as a political party, and the light of day on their affairs will be their doom.

IMHO. I'm a natural-born optimist. ;^)

In his response on Dec. 9, Betito told Cherwonak to "take your NRA gun loving ass back to the U.S. where you belong."

It would be great if we could work out some kind of exchange program with Canada where we would take their hard-working, law-abiding citizens and they would take our welfare grandmothers, abortion enthusiasts, condom throwers, screeching feminists, Hollywood drunks, gold-chained union "organizers", race industry "victims", and all the rest of the losers, parasites, and humorless malcontents who comprise the Democrat Party base.

It's something that liberals enjoy.They want us to surrender in Iraq and give up our guns so the criminals and terrorist can ride us into the ground.

HOP, I don't know. I view the libs as quietly imploding. Look at what happened in Mississaga-Erindale (A victory for Islam), the beer and popcorn fiasco and now this. The election is over a month away and this stuff will just keep happening.

I know that down here (far Southwestern Ontario) the libs are not very popular, and don't seem particularly well organized.
