I’m a part of it, and I’ve never gotten a pin, an invite, or sweet fuck all. If I didn’t call to remind them to give me my tax receipt, they’d never even bother to mail that.

Trust me, there is a reason the Liberals hardly raise any money. Sigh…

And the bit about quarterly reports does not apply to regular monthly withdrawals. They are all in one annual report filed after the end of the year. Mostly because the banks find it easier.

Laurier Club status does not apply to contributions made to local ridings, candidates, leadership and nomination contestants.

There has been a lot of talk as to why there is no record of Ignatieff making a donation to the Liberal Party in 2008. Below is some information about these quarterly reports, because people have been questioning what these reports are. So far, no one, and let me repeat that NO ONE, has come forward and shown where Elections Canada does have a record of a donation from Ignatieff. All I have seen is assurances that he has, attacks on me or attacks on Elections Canada. Typical political spin.
So where are the records of Iggy giving to the party?

I have to agree with Ted, the amount of unfounded accusations and rumours that are going around on Tory blogs these days is impressive. It looks like some are trying to start full-on attacks on Ignatieff, but they can’t find any issue with enough truth for it to catch on. I’ll give them a passing grade for imagination, but all in all it’s starting to look like desperation to me.

Do you really think that it’s fair to compare bloggers with politicians benefiting directly from the party? I may say some nice things and comments about Mulcair and Duceppe but I sure would never support their party…
but the rather blatant double-standard being used. I know you’re not an Iggy-lover, but you have to concede that point. Sure there is a double-standard, but it’s no more egregious than the one within the Liberal blogger community.

Taylor doesn’t but yesterday (and many other days) he put up a particularly egregious lie about Ignatieff accepting illegal donations from the Democratics in the US. Not a shred of reality to the accusation but he doesn’t change his post. (Bourque had that one up too but was also forced to back down.)

With the eggregious smears against Casey, and all of this, you have to wonder what’s up with all of the lying to spread mud? It used to be that they’d actually do some thinking and planning into their lies and mudslinging but these are just too easy to disprove.

Just how afraid Iggy or desperate over the economy are the Cons?

As for the links to the specific Conservative sites that did do these attack lines, if not the ones in Warren’s original list.. you’ll need to ask Warren specifically which blogs he saw – other then Bourque, which he specifically listed as seeing. He wouldn’t have said so otherwise.
