Wilson

It’s time for bed little girl.

You have had a long day.

You need to get rested up, to delight the masses all over the net tommorrow.

Please bring some fresh talking points to amuse us.

Thank You

Liberal Friend

lol,
ok, if Libs table Lee’s motion, it is an obvious lack of confidence in the government having the moral authority to govern, and will result in an election.
Bringing down the govt over the Afghan detainee issue, especially with the good Judge Iaco willing to review the docs and un-redact those that should be public, would not go over so well with Canadians.

My guess is the Liberals would like to wait until after their thinkers conference before bringing forward a motion of contempt.

They have invested too much time, effor and money in organizing it to let it fall by the wayside if Mr. Harper decides to pull the plug.

Harper would have the nerve to seek dissolution, rather than answer for anything.

The opposition should call his bluff.

Mr openness and accountability would have a hard time explaining that one to people.

When you stand up to a bully, they quickly crumple.

Harper isn’t in exactly great political shape now, force the issue.

OVER TO YOU WILSON

Good god is anyone surprised?

All you have to do is come up with the lowest, most lame and underhanded thing someone can do in a situation, and sitting right there will be a conservative. When is the opposition going to stop this madness? This has nothing to do with timing, diplomacy, etc. – it really is a matter of right and wrong. The conservatives are out of control and are quickly destroying the government and the country. They need to be stopped and held to account.

For god’s sake do something besides writing letters! Hold them in contempt already!!

I’m getting tired of hearing the govt say “legally available” or “national security” or give some other BS reason for not handing over the UNREDACTED docs. If the govt doesn’t release those docs to the committee by the end of next week, I would certainly bring forward the motion to charge the got with Contempt of Parliament.

Hypocrite is an appropriate label for the CONs. We’ve seen far too many examples of this and hopefully Canadians will wake up to the kind of government we have: one that distorts/lies, takes items out of context,viciously attacks reputable diplomats, freezes everyone’s budget except for the PMO/PCO which is increased by almost 22% and of course their *cough* tough on crime *cough* agenda.
