I like you a lot, RUEZ, and I have a lot of respect for you, but you are too partisan to moderate a political discussion fairly.
This is true of many Liberals however Conservatives tend to be driven by a higher ideology that trumps personal belief. That is why all the soldiers are Conservative and yet risking their lives defending Liberal principles in Afghanistan while Liberals flip flop around the issue for example.

Anyway just so people know. I am not bitter about the results. I can even understand them. There are people that honestly don't like me, and then there are people that just don't think I would be neutral enough. That's fair, they might be right. I do try and be fair to most people. It's not like there isn't a liberal mod here though. It would have been nice to hear from some of the no's though. I think Ziggy is the only one that had anything to say. Maybe most of the no's are to timid? Feel free to post now if you like I'm still curious.
Thanks for being a good sport RUEZ. The principles of Canadian democracy I see slipping away must be advocated and defended everywhere. You only lost due to the manipulation of those fundementals by the less principaled in our community.
Again, I call on Trevor to do a "ballot review" and provide the real results.

To be honest, I'm just flattered that you and a few other people considered me qualified to be a mod. I'm not always the greatest poster and I do make mistakes as some like to point out quite quickly. In general though I do my best and it's nice that someone feels the same way.

Think its got something to do with the forum speed,once you hit submit it should go to the next page,not hang long enough that some hit the back button to try and get it to load again. Dont think its done on purpose either just like no one does double posts on purpose,same thing.
Good example of this is your last double post,did you hit the back button or hit submit twice?

...out of the belief that the ends justify the means...
Please! You joined the Liberal Party to sabotage it from within and now are going to start pontificating on how objectionable it is for the ends to justify the means?!?
Choosing the liberal I think would be least likely to beat the Conservative from a list of candidates presented to me by the Liberal party itself is hardly the same comparison. That means that every liberal who voted for someone other then Dion had the fix in? Now if I had voted for the person 10-15X then it would be a different story. And remember, my (and others) actions were in direct reaction to teach liberals in the constituency a lesson as they had drew first blood by not only coming in to vote but to use the more open and democratic process of the Conservatives to actually place their own candidate in the line up.
Defending Liberal integrity is like defending the Taliban as progressive moderates. Good luck.
pffft... Rubbish. Let's cut through your ethical contortions and get to the chase:
You denounce the Liberals' lack of integrity yet use it as an excuse for your own "ends justify the means" tactics, then you turn around and claim the moral high ground by denouncing those who use tactics identical to yours.
You've become exactly that which you despise.
Or maybe you're just a great big, dishonest hypocrite.

Thanks, RUEZ.
A fair person wouldn't have singled out liberals for that comment.
Bite me.
Ya this guy should be a Mod. No flame, this thread is here to show points either way isn't it? Or was it meant as a coronation?
off topic

Here's another liberal that thinks his shit doesn't stink. He comes along to tell us what can or cannot be discussed in an open political forum. Then turns around and cries that we are stifling his free expression. Amazing.
