Say what you will; the facts are what they are. It was a die-hard Conservative idealogue that brought the Progressive Conservative Party to its knees, just as a die-hard ideologue seems to be doing the same now.
And I was using it to point out that most life revolves around mutual give-and-take. You know; negotiation. I’m glad that your life is so cut-and-dried. The vast majority don’t enjoy such an undiluted circumstance.
And what are the "facts" ? I pointed out the inherent hypocrisy in believing in two opposing ideological forces. You seem to want to rewrite the laws of physics.
"It was a die-hard Conservative idealogue that brought the Progressive Conservative Party to its knees"
And, um, pray tell who was that ? BTW, I'll also add the hillarity of the very name of that thankfully irrelevent party as an example of the above hypocrisy. Progressive is leftist, and Conservatism isn't. I shed no tears when that party died as a serious opposition farce (sic). Anything based in falsity and hypocrisy deserves such a fate. A phoenix needed to rise from that farce.
"just as a die-hard ideologue seems to be doing the same now."
You mean Harper ? So you're blaming the greatest Canadian Conservative in quite literally decades for failure when the current situation is nothing more but a desperate and sad attempt by the rejected and dejected rabid moonbattery of politics attempting an unholy and what may likely prove seriously unpopular coup d'etat of a duly elected plurality gov't ? You have a most bizarre outlook, sir.
"And I was using it to point out that most life revolves around mutual give-and-take. You know; negotiation."
Yes, usually the giving away of right and the taking away of right. I've witnessed that schtick for a long time now.
"I’m glad that your life is so cut-and-dried. The vast majority don’t enjoy such an undiluted circumstance."
Because good people refuse to stand up against wrong. They merely allow enlightened individuals such as yourself "negotiate" the right away. ;-)
Poppycock again....this is about the left (eastern Canada) wanting to rape the West again, money and power not ideology. The CPC government as a minority could not move the country any further right than the opposition in Parliament would have let them.
