Until his "tail between his legs" appearance on the day after his disastrous panel appearance where Rosemary Baron effectively pushed back, I had never seen him NOT use ad hominem attacks when responding to questions about CPC policies. As many of your readers will know, ads hominems are considered the lowest form of debate and would receive failing marks in any Oxford debate. While I am never surprised what comes out of the mouths of a Calandra, Polliviere or Del Mastro, Alexander's case may represent the greatest condemnation of Harperspeak® and the destruction of character.Askingtherightquestionsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35117130.post-42283149523081091862015-09-06T14:34:24.893-04:002015-09-06T14:34:24.893-04:00"They'll soon catch up with Stephen Harpe..."They'll soon catch up with Stephen Harper."<br /><br />Allot of us have the rest will come hopefully before the election...Mogs Mogliohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09086959842254833850noreply@blogger.com
