I am surprised that the PM did not get him to cross the floor like Wajid. Gives the CPC a foothold in Scarborough and the 416 region.<BR/><BR/>Oh I forgot. Wappel divorced his wife?!!!! He is not moral enough to serve in Harper's caucus?!!! Thus the end of a flaky political career.<BR/><BR/>MushroomAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14377350.post-1174836457526226452007-03-25T09:27:00.000-07:002007-03-25T09:27:00.000-07:00I would take Wappel over Dion anywhere anyplace.I would take Wappel over Dion anywhere anyplace.Owen in Ottawahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09955818277518897141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14377350.post-1174809569139920412007-03-25T01:59:00.000-07:002007-03-25T01:59:00.000-07:00You can not believe it.

I am not the only one that is happy about Wappel’s leaving. Calgary Grit, A BCer in Toronto, Miles Lunn, to name but a few, share my opinion of Wappel. Of course, opposition to Wappel goes well beyond the blogsephere. Read what the media is saying. Wappel was a pariah living of the avails of Liberal success in the Toronto area. He we will forever be remember for his dealings with an 81 year old vet and the fact that he stood in opposition to virtually every policy on the social policy front the Liberals ever stood for. <BR/><BR/>As for Wappel’s views on homosexuality and personhood at conception, I do not have the time of day for people who claim the earth is flat and the moon made of cheese either. I am also not alone in this regard. In educated society, Wappel’s views are universally panned. You are simply delusional if you think that just because Wappel holds this or that view that it is by that fact alone worthy of discussion and consideration. Indeed, the only thing noteworthy about positions that Wappel held near and dear is that he as public figure held such exotic views. Wake up and introduce yourself to the new century.Kobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03407275645274060038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14377350.post-1174794563157479432007-03-24T21:49:00.000-07:002007-03-24T21:49:00.000-07:00I cannot believe that you are gloating over Mr. Wa...I cannot believe that you are gloating over Mr. Wappel's decison to not run in the next Federal election. I personally know him and he is a principled and honourable man who has given good service the Liberal party and his constituents. Has the Liberal party become “SO” intolerant that it is no longer willing to tolerate members who have opposing views?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14377350.post-1174788164942858912007-03-24T20:02:00.000-07:002007-03-24T20:02:00.000-07:00No you called him principled which is precisely wh...No you called him principled which is precisely what Mr. Wappel is not. As for the abortion debate, the whole debate is centered around the issue of personhood. It is a very complex issue indeed. Mr. Wappel ignores the whole debate and supports a position that intelligent people on both sides of the debate regard as being completely devoid of substance. <BR/><BR/>As for what I implied, I certainly did not imply what you think I implied.
