It was the Liberal (David McGuinty?) who started it.

She was too close and hit the car ahead of her but only at a crawl... but his trailer hitch hit right on the sensor for her airbags. She had the steering wheel turned which put her left arm across the airbag so when it blew, it broke her arm. To add insult to injury, it was her left arm and she's left-handed. So she's off work for a couple of weeks until she's healed up and I get double-duty at home. <BR/><BR/>This really cuts into my computer time!!Machttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499980957240834609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20283843.post-1161561072946166902006-10-22T19:51:00.000-04:002006-10-22T19:51:00.000-04:00I can guess who anonymous is.

I don't believe we can call anyone names, but there is a double standard. Belinda not all women could be called much worse. This is the context of a broken relationship.

However, again it is a thinly veiled attempt to paint conservatives as a bunch of misogynists. If I thought that were true, I'd be out in a heartbeat.<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>Then we have this little nugget at the end, referring to a blogburst that yours truly was involved in:<BR/><BR/><I>And they have mounted fierce public-relations campaigns against government programs that later wound up being axed or downsized, including the Court Challenges Program -- a fund that paid for legal challenges that won new rights for women, minorities, the disabled, and gays and lesbians since the 1970s.</I><BR/><BR/>Again, a tinge of bias. On one hand it gives us an appearance of holding tremendous power, but I have to doubt that Ottawa is sitting around making policy decisions based on the ramblings of a few bathrobed bloggers. But then again, you never know. Maybe we could get consulting fees?Joanne (True Blue)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17445664997050698154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20283843.post-1161412510794587802006-10-21T02:35:00.000-04:002006-10-21T02:35:00.000-04:00First Garth... now the Blogging Tories...
