Warren — Musings —04.12.2011 07:01 PM Layton scored on that Iggy voting record stuff Iggy shouldn’t have sloughed it off. 4 Comments Raymond says: April 12, 2011 at 7:02 pm Iggy shouldn’t have lost his temper in the rebuttal. Reply Ron says: April 12, 2011 at 7:03 pm they’re piling on the opposition parties are not saying what they stand for Reply Robert W says: April 12, 2011 at 7:04 pm Should have said he was out listening to Canadians. Reply Michael Watkins says: April 13, 2011 at 10:14 am Maybe Iggy should have adopted Harper’s one-size-fits-all response pre-programmed of course: “That simply isn’t true”. (implying the asserter is a liar as an extra benefit) In this case, iggy would have been right. In Harper’s case, using the phrase will tend to mean that ‘yes, it is true’. Doubt the home audience is keeping score. Reply Leave a Reply Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
