It is a short trip driving Cons crazy, but Iggy has gone and done it big time. Take the comments from the Con Propaganda Newsrag, the National Post.
I his incite-full commentary of today, Kelly McParland scoffs at Iggy's decision to leave until Friday's House vote to announce if the government gets Liberal support or not. If this lack of support results in an election, this is what Kelly (strange name for a guy) has to say: "Canadians overwhelmingly say they oppose an election. Triggering one would cost about $300 million, and put the stimulus program on hold indefinitely. Mr. Ignatieff says Mr. Harper isn't doing a good enough job, yet he'd be forcing a lengthy delay smack in the middle of the crisis. Who would Canadians blame for that?"
Strange that coming from the same guy who dismissed Harper calling an election in defiance of his own Fixed Election Day act when nobody wanted one. Can you say two faced?
McParland goes on the say: "Mr. Ignatieff made the odd claim that merely approving specific projects and committing the money doesn't represent actual spending. Real spending apparently consists only of physically transferring the money." This is truly amazing coming out the mouth of an apparently sentient being. Does Kelly not understand that in times of recession promises of aid are about as useful as condoms in a nursery? Getting the financial assistance is more important that just another photo-op to announce it.
It is truly sad to see the mighty fall so low.
