The person making the accusation has been discredited and Cauchon has a pretty honourable record, so if I had to bet....<BR/><BR/>I think you can 'clean up' a party or organisation without blowing it up. <BR/><BR/>What disturbs me about the current CPC is the 'dirty' manner in which they operate. Corruption has a few meanings and in the case of the CPC I'd assign unscrupulous without reservation.<BR/><BR/>Whether or not you cared for Dion and his policies, what they did to that man was shameful. The same goes for Navdeep Bains, Stronach, and many others. Calling people terrorists, unpatriotic, anti-military etc., is disgusting imo. Take that further and you have the PM lying about what the coalition meant and how our system of parliament works. <BR/><BR/>In other words, they'll do <I>anything</I> to gain what they perceive as advantage, (In and Out?).<BR/><BR/>How they are using Mulroney is not only obvious, it's just the latest example of how they have no qualms in throwing anyone,even their own, under the proverbial bus. <BR/><BR/>Yes, I'm tired of corruption and I'm especially tired of the current government corrupting our system of governance.<BR/><BR/>I believe that Harper's ruthlessness and incredible ego are going to do him, and the party, in.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04291881352139075405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30594727.post-82566227650735267012009-04-13T01:49:00.000-04:002009-04-13T01:49:00.000-04:00...that expression...[is] one that often crosses H...<I>...that expression...[is] one that often crosses Harper's face when he's throwing out...</I><BR/><BR/>It looks more like he's throwing <I>up</I>. It's a priceless shot. Where <I>do</I> you find those photos?<BR/><BR/>The fact that Harper stage-managed this whole imbroglio speaks to his deep desperation: he's trying to capitalise on Central and Western Canada's still-vibrant hatred of Mulroney (after having exploited him as a political mentor for five years). Harper knows that this kind of cynical tactic is the only thing that's going to grease his ass back into government.<BR/><BR/>After three years in power, this is all he's got.

Well, if we wanted to, we could all spend time cutting and pasting OLD stories that have nothing to do with 2009.<BR/><BR/>Go for a walk, do something with your life because your constant negative cutting and pasting is just oh so tiresome and boring.<BR/><BR/>Shall we do the same, or should be "move on" with life. You know, the most corrupt leader in our history was Sir John A. MacDonald (also a total drunk) and yet he accomplished something and you people revere him. Because he was so corrupt, I think he should be removed from the Conservative list.<BR/><BR/>Besides, what moral compass is there in demeaning someone and taking their money at the same time?
