msdogfood Posted May 27, 2010 Author Report Posted May 27, 2010 Today, I saw the committee with John Baird appearing instead of Soudas the communicator for the PMO, who refused to show or the PMO refused to allow him to show. The Tories can't have it both ways. They say only the ministers should talk at the committee and so since Harper is the Prime Minister he doesn't HAVE to. That being said why then did the MINISTER of Natural Resources and the former minister, refuse to come before the committee? They are/were the ministers. If the PM, won't talk and won't let Soudas talk then they should allow Pierre, secretary to the PM talk. He likes to talk and talk within this committee, so he can go from seating on the right to seating in the front. Watching the Tories perform in the House and in committee meeting , just re-firms why the HIll is so dysfunctional. all true now we will wait for all the Serpens to go out than if they do not respond to question's than... this will get very interesting!!! this is so stupid of the PMO!!!!!!!!.

Born Free Posted May 27, 2010 Report Posted May 27, 2010 all true now we will wait for all the Serpens to go out than if they do not respond to question's than... this will get very interesting!!! this is so stupid of the PMO!!!!!!!!. The governments actions are all contained in Harpers 200 page handbook on how to disrupt Parliament. This is for Argus the "Party Hack"...who is a dyed in the wool supporter of a PM who promotes a flagrant lack of respect for the democratic process.... Quote

Pliny Posted May 28, 2010 Report Posted May 28, 2010 Jason Kenney - pants on fire! Hi Waldo. Time to wander around these days, I see. Hey Waldo is there any difference between these "committees" and a criminal investigation like sponsorgate? Old Chretien was sure sweating at those adscam hearings. In the end the truth didn't come out. The old boy network was secure and Martin was left with the PR damage. Quote I want to be in the class that ensures the classless society remains classless.

Yesterday Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 (edited) What about this idea that's been floated around here lately that people are being unreasonably naive to expect politicians to be truthful? I get the distinct impression that many observers and participants in our system believe in their hearts that it can't function without a little corruption to grease the wheels. Would it be too much to expect that politicians acknowledge this so people can stop wasting time begrudging them every time they get a few cookie crumbs on their sleeves? Does corruption grease or sand the wheels of growth? This still seems to be a good question in some circles. I have to agree with both of you and Dre, press on with the transparency and governments stop whining about it. Makes me think of 'The Blank Slate' by Steven Pinker, the modern denial of human nature. Edited June 4, 2010 by Yesterday Quote
