  1. And then he tones it down in a general election and the middle doesn't trust him because of said pandering to the base and the base gets upset that he's not right enough and they kick him out. Conservatives need to get over this idea they have that Trudeau bashing is a winning strategy.
  2. Yeah but then there's all the other stuff where he is killing all sorts of unbelievers and sinners and punishing people for this or that. Bottom line the old testament is all over the map. Ned Flanders "I've done everything the Bible asks, even the stuff that contradicts the other stuff"
  3. Sounds to me like he wants government control over the BoC.
  4. Yeah they don't like that middle eastern brown socialist guy called Jesus, they prefer angry vengeful old testament God. I mean Jesus held some pretty strong views that run very contrary to these evangelical Christian teachings.
  5. He loves a good gimmick so most likely yes.
  6. The bad blood was the Flames trying to bend the city over a barrel and show them the 50 states. Flames ownership wanted the same kind of sweetheart deal Edmonton gave the Oilers, Calgary council is unwilling to capitulate totally. Which is the right call. Flames basically want to subsidize the risk and privatize the profit.
  7. I also remember them complaining about wasteful spending by the NDP, this sounds like a lot of taxpayer money being pissed away AGAIN. Very tired of this government treating taxpayer money like their own spending account. #BetterOffWithRachel
  8. When was the last time you tried to get in and out of an event at the casino? Big freeways yes, but if you still have one way in and out you get a bottleneck there. Plus you get more vats since transit is nonexistent so everyone will just drive. Look I get that the reserve might make a good offer than the cheap asses running the flames will take, but it would be a mistake. They need to reach into their fat wallets and stop expecting the city to build them an arena on the tax payer dime.
  9. Nothing but room... with likely one way in and out.... and then do you add in all the people drinking beer at the game and hopping into their cars to drive home? No build an arena downtownish with access to public transit. well better to sell out quick than not sell out...
  10. Send the criminal back to the US. We don't want their garbage
  11. Hey those rich private citizens or companies didn't get rich by writing a lot of cheques.... That's really what it comes down to. bunch of cheap asses want the public to pay for everything. Grifters the lot of them. The group that owns the Flames are terrible for it. Killed the arena deal because the city had the audacity to expect them to pay for cost increases.
  12. But in the CFL can it survive a few years without the diehards?
  13. Last year they were talking about how tough the secondary would have it losing rose and Sayles. Wound up dominant anyway. That's what good teams do. Replace good players with other good players.
  14. And some rider fan on reddit tried to say how likeable he is... pinball levels of likeable!
  15. He needs to be prosecuted otherwise it's Cate Blanchett for the rest of the politicians to break laws as they see fit. Show consequences for this total disregard for the rule of law and maybe others will think twice.
  16. Came to make appeasement comments. Beaten to the punch.
  17. Russia doesn't seem to have established any sort of air superiority in Ukraine as is... and in modern warfare the skies are where wars are won and lost. The air power of NATO would completely decimate Russia if they wanted to.
  18. I believe I remember reading about that and was disgusted that the stamps were nowhere to be seen in terms of helping.
  19. Man there are so many people around Washington that are completely on the books for Russia it's not even funny. What the west really ought to do is step in and put a boot so far up Putins ass he never even looks at another country again... but that's not advantageous because he's insane and likely to start throwing nuclear weapons around.
  20. Probably just the same people who hung off Derek Taylor's nuts because they thought his boutique stats were the bees knees. I got nothing against new unique stats as a curiosity, but let's not pretend they're all that meaningful. Some rider fans felt it gave them a sense of being the smartest guys in the room because Taylor told them some obscure number on the radio.
  21. Yeah if you aren't going to pay the global players a reasonable amount if they deserve it what's the point? Guys like Hansen are exactly the ones that this program was designed to find... yet he might quit because it's not worth paying him anything. Another half formed idea by the current CFL management.
  22. It's something that will rile up their rural core supporters incredibly well. Keep em angry and frothing at the mouth with no time to think. Not that any of them are prone to thinking anyway.
  23. this is the problem with the democrats. You have 2 different groups that vote for you and both are different. Biden was the status quo pick, which pisses off a significant and growing part of their support.
