Sparrow refused to explain why Murray’s activities were being paid out of the House of Commons research budget rather than party coffers.

I think this means taxpayer money.

I'm not sure how one defines House of Commons employee but does it mean one who gets money from the House of Commons budget?

There is clearly a lot you don't know. Any reason you posted the same article twice? Do you bother to read?

Maybe this guy was paid out of a House of Commons account. But the key is maybe. What you think isn't proof? Thank God because Jack Layotn would be PM if what you think counted ... :lol:

He is not a House of Commons employee.

So pesky those facts. Anybody know who posted those lies?

I think you're the one letting pesky facts get in the way, like the fact that his email address on his card clearly shows it is <[email protected]>. Not conservative.ca. So your unsubstantiated claim that he doesn't work for parliament doesn't hold up, no matter what size of bold font you use.

No, governments haven't sent staffers to check out the leader of the opposition before.

And you know this because of your long, in-depth research on the subject, yes?

Is he capable of such "research"? I doubt that his capabilities extend beyond personal, unfounded slurs of posters such as myself on this board.

Didn't see that. Power to you. That fact changes everything.

Here is the story that is appearing today on the subject.

http://www.canada.com/topics/news/politics...7c49937&k=29733

From the article (article verbiage in red font):

"Liberal Mick Gzowski who was filming him".

On whose dime was that?

In the script, the video focuses on the fact Murray is paid through the research budget the House of Commons allocates to the Conservatives.

Is it not OK to use research funds in a discretionary manner?

So, Mr. Bluth was either ignorant or lying profoundly mistaken about this.
Please don't call me ignorant or a liar you a**hole or misinformed party hack.

Insult reported to moderator.

(BTW, you SAID I was lying just a couple of posts before I QUESTIONED whether you were lying. Hypocrisy certainly becomes you.)

The Grewal tapes were never proven to be doctored.

I think you're being profoundly mistaken again.

Mick Gzowski, son of Peter Gzowski, works for Liberal party headquarters. Party dime.

I never said it was illegal. I said it smelled in the same way that Liberals chasing Harper did.

Nice catch, Bubber. Aren't those addresses reserved for House of Commons employees?

You're so easy to get along with Bluthie! A real charmer.

Moments ago you were braying that for certain this guy was not getting taxpayer money, and you never provided ANY kind of proof. Now we have a tory official who appears to confirm that the guy was paid with public money and you pretend there is no proof. Sheer genius.

Are you Ricki Bobbi by any chance?

Just wondered were the facts came from. Someone provided them in the email address. I saw that and admitted my mistake.

Who is Ricki Bobbi?

Do you live for the personal vendetta? I doubt it is; different writing styles. But why not stick to the merits and stay out of the mud?

I'm guessing this Ricki Bobbi wasn't a Liberal supporter then.

NDP or Green, I guess. I'm not sure.

Yawn.

Certainly when the story appears in tomorrow's newspapers, I don't think we are going to hear a dispute about where he works. I think the story speaks for itself.

BubberMiley pointed out the fact in this case.

The story sort of speaks for itself.

Was this guy working on his own time?

What is the accusation here?

Stephen Harper is paid with public money.

The Conservatives receive taxpayers' money for research staff. Are you suggesting that we should dictate how that money is spent?

Nope. But some of way it is spent smells. Gotcha politics.

Yup, the Liberals sure learned how stinky spending taxpayer money can get.

And why should Dion worry about being taped? Is there something he wouldn't want us to know?

And now Harper has learned to do the same? That's your argument?

And should a Tory House of Commons staffer worry about being taped in return? Does he have something to hide?

Anybody remember that incident with the senator from Virgina, George Allen I believe his name was.

That's why it's smart politics to have your people at political events, might not be ethical, but unfortunately I haven't seen an ethical political campaign in the last decade.

You were either lying or or speaking in ignorance. The question was which.
