Team Hair and Teeth© were on all of the party’s debate-rules conference calls and agreed to everything that’s happened since. This is, as I say, bollocks.

Two points about this saga, now (blessedly) over. One, everyone now knows it was an Ontario Liberal who brought this scandal-plagued agency – which was conceived of, and managed by, Ontario PCs – to the attention of the Auditor General and the OPP long before the story became front-page news.

…has sent me a number of emails that seem to be quite preoccupied, well, with anal sex. His email is dtaylor@truebeam.ca. Anyone have any suggestions as to what he’s getting at?

Has a certain Opposition party been caught trying to infiltrate a certain leadership campaign? Stay tuned.

…as here, is like comparing the Beatles to Milli Vanilli.  Like comparing Kobe beef to ground chuck.  Like comparing Stephen Hawking to Johnny English.  Like comparing a Harley to a Moped.  Like comparing Olympic wrestling to pro wrestling.  Like comparing a Ferrari to a Ford. You get the point.

…so says The Hill Times. Thanks, Hill Times!

As they grimly devote themselves to the task of reviewing 2012 — filled, as it was, with declining poll numbers, widespread public disinterest and no achievements whatsoever — Canada’s members of Parliament are today filled with undisguised envy for one figure. One who will be long remembered by history. One

…the most experienced support, too. Both count. Ms. Pupatello stands head and shoulders above the rest. She has the support of 17 caucus members, including Finance Minister Dwight Duncan and other cabinet ministers such as Bob Chiarelli, Brad Duguid, Mike Colle, and Michael Gravelle. Ms. Pupatello also has the support

Harinder sounded charming, Sousa sounded smart, Hoskins sounded comfortable. Pupatello sounded like a Premier.

A failure. It isn’t something that anyone – particularly political partisans – ever like to admit to. But that’s what the gun registry was, ultimately: a failure. And I say that as a Liberal, and a Liberal who owns firearms, too. Justin Trudeau, who unnerves Harper Conservatives and Mulcair New

Still miss him.

Hmmm. Given how completely wrong the Globe was on Pupatello’s liquor sales statement – ie., they claimed the exact opposite of what she said, in both headline and story, and have yet to publish a correction, despite having been sent a full transcript – I am actually feeling a bit

This story is flat-out, categorically false. Pupatello said no such thing. I hereby declare an open thread on stuff reporters get totally wrong. This Globe story is my submission.

Sandra at her Toronto campaign H.Q. I’d be there, too, but I have to go speak to Beaches East York Libs at the St. Louis Bar and Grill!

“I’ve made it very clear that I would be supporting the person who would best represent the interests of the North, and I think Sandra is that person.”

I’m going to be reading from and/or talking about Fight the Right at a meet the candidates thing in my home riding of Beaches-East York tonight at about 8 pm. We’ll be gathering at the St. Louis Bar and Grill (1963 Queen Street East) for grub, grog and a gab

The last four postings, I note, are about the news media, and how they sometimes bewilder me. I’m sure I bewilder folks, too, but I don’t charge anyone for “news” or “opinion.” Anyway.  They’re not having a good morning, the MSM. I’m sure they’ll feel better tomorrow.
