Obfuscation and Obstruction
Yesteday in question period we saw the usual obstructionist tactics of the liberals, in that Stephane Dion was forced to quell a growing revote in liberal caucus in their breaking ranks over the extension of the five-year sunset terrorist provisions insisted on by Wayne Easter and Irwin Cotler in the first place post 9/11. Why did Dion have to discipline his caucus with a three-line whip, as well as threaten any liberal MP who’d be foolish enough to resist voting the party line would not have his reelection papers signed by the leader? Why the intransigent resistance to the previously unused tools for dealing with an immanent reality of a future terrorist threat? What do the liberals have to loose by reinstating the clauses for even nine more months as high level communiqués from the conservative compromise have indicated, concerning the reopening of the Air India Bombings that the liberals 22 years of never-ending fumbling and blundering some 22 years ago? An investigation still in progress by the RCMP Only months ago it appeared that the liberals had no problems renewing these controversial clauses for a proposed five year extension to which the conservative suggested three years instead, and now inexplicably Dion flip-flopped into complete irrationality, shadow cabinat MP John McCallum siting only that, since the clauses have never been evoked there are no longer useful to perserve. http://tinyurl.com/yrmt9g Knowing full well the optics of the situation, Dion and liberal band of scoundrels continue to put their own hidden agenda ahead of the deadly implications to the public’s safety from future public terrorist attacks. No doubt wishing the tories to take the fall in the event disaster befalls our beloved nation. Can it be that the true reason Dion has reneged on his commitment is because the liberals are hiding the next potential scandal, incompetence, or worse yet further corruption? Is it the truth more that Harper has been seen to be that damned hound dog sniffing around the hedgerow, and unearthing the recently buried remains of further bodies of the liberal’s unwanted and unsavory past? http://tinyurl.com/2be823 |
