Man, these Conservatives sure know how to lie live the high life. Tuxedos, lobsters, jets, search-and-rescue helicopter rides.
I should be born again as a Conservative. Like waking up one morning and realizing I didn’t have to be accountable to anyone or anything. I could do as I please, dine like a king, get chauffeured around at my whim, dress to kill, wave a wand and have Canadians jump when I say jump, preside over a media in my pocket and never, ever have to say I’m sorry. All on someone else’s dime.
UPDATE: You know the right has done very well, especially in the US, by identifying its own weaknesses and applying them to the opposition. Here with MacKay we have the very thing Conservatives accuse the left of being – elite.
And here you have the perfect opportunity for the NDP or the Liberals to adopt a strategy of accusing the Cons of ‘elitism’. You have that clip of appointed Senator Mike Duffy in a tux looking down upon an elected politician. The talking points are all arranged in a convenient row. Ads are begging to be made. But will anything be done? Of course not. Because neither party has the will nor the gumption to know how.
