Proof That Lefties Support Taliban Bombers!

The NP has an article about Afghan detainees. It appears that Canadians are buying into the detainee issue....or are they?

OTTAWA - A solid majority of Canadians believe prisoners detained by Canadian soldiers have been tortured after being transferred to Afghan authorities, a new Ipsos Reid poll suggests.

A fat majority also say that if torture occurred, it was not only wrong but that they believe there was widespread knowledge of it within the Canadian government -- and that senior officials should lose their jobs, if that was the case.

First off, I can't find the survey the NP is quoting. The newest released data at Ipsos Reid is whether the opposition can be trusted. In order to view the results, you need to pony up $95 a year.


So, not having the actual questions, I'm going to play with statistics.

Question 1: Given that the Afghan Muslims stone women to death for being raped, do you think that Afghan prisoners are tortured?

(Hint, you have to answer yes to this question)

Question 2: If our Canadian troops hand over captured Taliban who are prone to chopping off woman's heads, do you think they might be tortured by Afghans?

(Hint, you have to answer yes)

Question 3: Given that the Taliban throw acid in young girls faces for going to school, do you think that they might be tortured?

(Hint, you have to answer yes)

Pollster John Wright said Canadians are saying they "care deeply" about the possibility of detainees being tortured after Canadian soldiers have transferred them to Afghan custody.

"They're saying it's not proper, it should have stopped and, if it didn't, somebody should have done something about it," he said.

Of the 61% who believe torture occurred, 59% said they think the tactic was routine, compared to 34% who believe it happened only on rare occasions, the poll suggests.

Quebecers were more likely to believe transferred detainees were tortured. Seventy-six per cent of them took that position, whereas residents of Alberta were the least likely to believe it, at 44%.

Question 4: Do you "care deeply" that murdering detainees might be tortured by the Afghans?

(Hint, you only care if you are Taliban lovers and could care less about young Afghan girls)

Question 5: If your daughter was raped and then sentenced to death, do you believe in the Afghan government as a way to protect your child?

(Do you seriously need a hint for this one?)

A majority said that if it is determined that officials knew as far back as 2007 that torture was taking place and didn't do anything to stop it, or denied it was happening at all, then top bosses should be ousted from their jobs.

Fifty-seven per cent said the defence minister, now Peter MacKay, should be forced to resign, and 56% said the chief of defence staff, currently Walter Natynczyk, should go.

Question 6: If you send troops into a desert fight in green camo, should the Minister be responsible?

(Hint, it was the Liberals who did this)

Question 7: If officials knew back in 2001, when the troops where first sent over to Afghanistan that torture was the norm, should the Liberals be held to account?

(Hint, the press have a short memory and therefore they blame everything on the Conservatives, and ignore the FACT that it was the Liberals who had a bad transfer agreement and it was the Conservatives who fixed it).

This poll appears to be very biased, but I can't really tell because the results would cost me $95, and I'm not one of those rich Liberal bloggers who can afford to see the results.

This poll proves that lefties support Taliban Bombers, and think women killed for minor "crimes" do not matter. It is a sad statement of our lefty people, they used to support the down trodden, now they support terrorists. Is it fear?

If We Wiped Out The NDP, Greens, And The Bloq...

How would you vote? IF we only had the Conservatives and Liberals to choose from next election, how would you vote. This is a question asked by Harris Decima in their latest poll. Seems that's the only way they can get the Liberals to come out ahead.



How does CTV report this?

Electorate leaning towards Liberals: poll
Updated Tue. Jun. 10 2008 8:47 AM ET

The Canadian Press

OTTAWA -- A polarized electorate may be tilting toward the federal Liberals at the expense of Stephen Harper's Conservative government, a new poll suggested Monday.

The Canadian Press Harris-Decima survey compared attitudes toward the Tories and Liberals in a head-to-head, two-party format. The telephone poll of just over 1,000 Canadians found that 44 per cent of respondents said they'd prefer a Liberal government after the next election, compared with 37 per cent who preferred the Conservatives.

Misleading? No Kidding!!! We hear time after time from Liberals, only 36% of Canadians voted for the Conservatives, so 64% voted against them. At 37% the Conservatives have actually picked up a point, and the only way Liberals will get 44% is if they wipe out the other lefty parties.

Since the 2006 election, the Conservatives "have not been able to enlarge their tent," said Harris-Decima president Bruce Anderson - notwithstanding a generally strong economy, fat government coffers and the incumbent's opportunity to control the agenda.

"If anything, the leaning and the second-choice support profile of Canadians is disproportionately headed in the direction of the Liberals right now," said Anderson.

Hello Anderson, we have one right leaning party, and 4 lefty parties, so any second choice HAS to be left leaning. Then we have this little gem:



Read how the question is worded. "Do you think the Liberal party is a lot better, a little better, there is no difference, the Conservative party are a little better, or the Conservative party are a lot better in each of the following areas."

Notice how for the Liberal party, is a lot better appears first, for the Conservatives, a little better is first, why the different order? Why not this question? "In each of the following areas, are the Liberals or Conservatives, a lot better, a little better, or there is no difference." Remember these results are after wiping the NDP, Greens and Bloq off the map.

NDP supporters told Harris-Decima they'd prefer a Liberal government by an almost four-to-one margin (69-18) compared with the Tory alternative, and Green supporters favoured the Liberals more than two to one (58-28).

Only Bloc Quebecois supporters were more favourable to a Conservative outcome, by a 41-32 margin.

I'm shocked!

My last point, when you go to the actual survey results posted by Harris Decima, they breakdown the 3 week average graphs in this order: National, Quebec, Ontario, Atlantic, BC. Do you see the problem? I see the problem. What the heck happened to the Prairies???? They dissappeared Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, who just happen to vote Conservative. Nope, no bias here.

So not only did this survey wipe out the NDP, Greens and Bloq, they also wiped out Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta! After all the wiping out, the Liberals are at 44% and the Conservatives are at 37%. What a dishonest survey. Harris Decima should be ashamed of themselves.
