Jack Layton just finished telling Craig Oliver that he thought what young Brigitte DePape did was wrong. He basically said that while he and the rest of ‘em are striving for that all polite decorum, she was disrespectful. Like Carolynn Bennett and Dizzy Miss Lizzy, ol’ Jack basically said that while he is just fine with protest, there is a time and a place for everything and she should’ve done it some place else. Not that I’m surprised. Jack’s little statement to Craig Oliver just completed the circle, once they get a taste of power and ‘entitlement’, they’re all bad. What will it take for all those NDP partisans to see that Jackie and the NDP are not as pure as the driven snow?
I’m waiting for them with bated breath to come drop by my comments section to justify Jack’s response and to attempt to tell me the difference as to why it’s ok when Jack condemns Brigitte Depape’s actions but not when Dizzy Miss Lizzy or Carolynn Bennett do it.
Once again, you politicians, no, she couldn’t have done it on the lawn or elsewhere, where protests of all kinds sporadically happen on a daily or near daily basis. As you’ve noticed, it wouldn’t have had the impact as the way Ms DePape did it.
