You don't live here, you know nothing about the way this place operates, so keep your stupid little insults to yourself. Go back to stalking people you don't like with Ben Shapiro or Chuck Johnson or Ezra Levant or whatever other internet sociopath you think is a hero and just leave Calgary out of it altogether. We don't fit into your batshit calculus and never will, no matter how hard you try to make your smears attach to a place that doesn't deserve it.

[N_Fiddledog]

Well apparently I do know a little bit about Calgary.

I knew the NDP won 14 out of 25 seats in what you were calling "the most reliably conservative-voting city in Canada".

I also knew your mayor is not a conservative. He's a Progressive.

This is me trying to figure out why such an expert as yourself doesn't know basic stuff like that.

[N_Fiddledog]

BTW, who's Chuck Johnson? Somebody Daily Kos is mad at this week, or something?

I've never heard of him. The other two are fine though. Tell you what. If you want to think you're insulting me with what feel like compliments, how about Mark Steyn. I like Mark Steyn.

It was a result of a protest vote against the betrayal of Albertan conservatism by Redfraud and Prentice. Eliminate those two fools and the damage they caused from Alberta's political history and the PC's are still in power today. It happens once in a while, where the polity gets so enraged that they do something that they normally wouldn't ever do. Reliable PC voters either stayed home or voted NDP in protest. That's all. And the Dippers are on a short leash as a result of it because if they go too far into their dogmatic politics that they play elsewhere they'll be out the door and back into opposition four years from now.

I question why I waste this time trying to explain these things to you. You're so far off on the moonbat right that by default everyone else, including non-dogmatic and non-insane conservatives, is automatically to the left of you. It's like the line from Twelve Angry Men, "don't bother, he's not listening, his kind never will".

[N_Fiddledog]

So Calgary is "the most reliably conservative-voting city in Canada" except when it's not then. Is that it?

Like when it's a provincial protest vote, right? OK, now explain why "the most reliable conservative voting city in Canada" voted in a Progressive for mayor who was running against the "Leader of the Progressive Conservative Association of Alberta".

Cause I'm guessing that's gotta be a different excuse, right?

She resigned as the Liberal candidate.

Surprising that there's still so many out there that can't understand that their Twitter and Facebook activities that they do under their real names can come back to bite them. Anonymous posting is one thing, but to do Twitter and Facebook and then expect the other side not to look up their history is kind of baffling at best.

No great loss to the riding though. Odds are the Libs will get maybe 500 votes, tops, there anyway.

Such as the genius who Tweeted this on her flight to Africa and when she landed was fired.

Wow this Brah dude sure gets the good finds.....hilarious

I recall a Congressman or senator in the states who was taped on an airplane saying "blacks are happiest if they have warm toilet seats and loose shoes."

Then Bill Clinton was taped saying to a friend whilst pointing at Obama when Obama was still running for leadership.

He said "This guy should be bringing us coffee"

Too bad, I was rather hoping she would stay on.

Guess they found the really good stuff.

You can't cherry pick one election from 110 years of history as a province and say that one election defines the city.

If you go back 10 years, 20 years, 50 years, whatever - you'll find that Calgary has consistently voted conservative at both the provincial and federal levels, be it Social Credit, PC, Reform, Alliance or Conservative.

The Alberta city you're thinking of with a history of voting progressive in Redmonton, not Calgary.

So by the same yardstick then, Toronto, because it once elected Rob Ford mayor, should be considered a bastion of conservative politics, right?

So much for yet another moonbat theory from Dogfiddler...

Sure I do, but what an amazing display of intellect in that retort. My eight year old wants to play with you.

My point is not historical it's current. Calgary is showing itself to be swinging progressive.

It's voted progressive municipally and provincially. These are just facts. Is this a new crowd that's moved in, attracted by Alberta's success? Did the city get fat and lazy and vulnerable to exploitation by the progressive parasite? Who knows? It happened though. I know that.

Have they learned their lesson yet? We'll see. The federal election will be interesting.

And seriously 'Bootlicker'? You're going to make me play the namey-changey insult game with you? C'mon, man. Grow up.

Right wingers like Limbaugh,Trump, Ford and Levant have made careers out saying far more offensive things on a daily basis. So the conservatives can spare us the phony moral outrage.

The only difference here is that the right wingers never apologize and in fact double down when called on their crap and that's what pleases their followers.

. Yeah, it's only right wingers that do that
Do you actually believe half the crap you post?

The election always brings out the hyper-partisan Liberal in Beaver.
