What an utterly naive statement. Do you honestly think that since Parliament is prorogued, not sitting, on holiday, campaigning, etc. that the Government/Cabinet abandon their jobs in governing the nation? Get real.
Yes George I know the wheels still have to turn, but you totally missed my point as I can see from your other two posts. What I was referring to in if you took the time to read it, it was Harper should of waited until the house resumed before appointing these new senators. Have some respect for the institution. The The house is not on holidays or summer break, its been closed, locked up.
Good old boy Chretien shut the doors of the HofC and made an appointment to the senate during the time he shut the doors, and refused to let the MP's work. Wasn't that done to avoid the report re adscam and the sponsorship scandal. Of course, he wanted to keep his shenanigans under wraps and keep on doing what he wanted, after all he learnt from the best shyster all them all, PM. Pierre Elliot Trudeau. Why is Harper any different?
Now Harper is doing the very same thing after he complained loud and clear his dissatisfaction with that move. Politicians in general are all so predictable, back them into a corner and they all quickly begin to show their real intentions. Most have one loyalty and that's to the party they serve, anything outside of that takes second fiddle.
Sorry George I'm not naive, I do have a few clues how government works and insults won't get you anywhere, I thought you were above that.
You acuse me of being a "Liberal Hack", in which I informed you, I wasn't partisan to any party, I place politicians on a very low pedestal, right down there with lawyers and used car salemen. So please why don't we just agree to disagree, because we can do this all day. I don't agree with you and you don't agree with me, please leave it at that, before we say something we both will regret later.
