I suggest that all we need to do is remind Canadians how many times his bills were rejected by the SCOC for violating the Charter. As well as reminding them how he went after the decent Chief Justice, in what has to be one of the most sordid episodes in modern Canadian history....Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-15315454633350765682020-02-03T10:29:35.341-05:002020-02-03T10:29:35.341-05:00Hi Jackie...I have no idea why MacKay decided to g...Hi Jackie...I have no idea why MacKay decided to go with that absurd attack ad, when he's trying to demonstrate that he's not as bigoted as Scheer. But then I guess they don't call him Dumbo for nothing. A grotesque record of misogyny, while in service to Stephen Harper, and now thie anti-yoga candidate?

Beards and dresses don't go well together. On the other hand , if we could get ape costumes for the Cons, that would work well.

And as for Dumbo MacKay's threats to fight Trudeau whoever came up with one must have also been dropped on his head. The only thing Dumbo has going for him are some Big Money donors, and when they are revealed I suspect they could prove fatal. Still, I am looking forward to the day when Top Bum and Dumbo start attacking each other and trying to prove who is the most manly manly candidate because that should be hilarious...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-82499314326031541262020-02-03T10:02:38.799-05:002020-02-03T10:02:38.799-05:00Hi rumleyfips....Yes, Peter MacKay has a long and ...Hi rumleyfips....Yes, Peter MacKay has a long and sordid record, and over the course of almost ten years I recorded it all.

Is it safe to assume his father's name and old PC connections paved the way to every civil service position he's had and now to this leadership coronation? Those transcripts would likely confirm the substance of his character and explain his shallow recourse to macho-unibrow-fakewrestling-doncherryish dog whistles to bring reformers back towards the centre. An even more privileged life and career than JT, harper and sheer, yet purporting to be a benevolent populist strongman (like repubs).

Insincere pandering at Pride means SFA if the Cons are just going to double down on misogynistic and homophobic tough guy rhetoric. Do they really think women and minorities are that stupid?

Navigating Dumbo right into the brick wall. Whap!! It would be pretty much the same result if he ever got his "wish" for fisticuffs with JT. As expected, Justin hasn't nor will he dignify the utterings of Doofus McDumbo by responding to the grade school threats.<br />That was a good read from Alan Freeman though I disagree with this, "You may wonder why MacKay, a 54-year-old Toronto lawyer and father of three small children, would want to risk severe brain injury as a way of keeping fit". In McKeh's case, that ship has sailed. I suspect that during one or many of his binge drinking adventures, he fell on his head multiple times and surely his big mouth earned him many clock cleanings in his day. Now that he's older, the effects of all those shots to the head are evident by his ridiculous challenge to JT and pretty much everything else that comes out of his mouth. And it will only get worse. Dumbo's wee potato brain's best before date has long ago passed and is clearly in decline. If he really cared about his family, he would exit the race and seek professional help immediately.<br />JDAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-72918110349574829572020-02-02T12:56:19.290-05:002020-02-02T12:56:19.290-05:00It's quite obvious that Mr. Potatohead has alr...It's quite obvious that Mr. Potatohead has already played too much hockey without a helmet.<br /><br />I had forgotten about them wimmin judges.
