Thinking people recognize the deceipt

So here's the thing -- Harper and Iggy agree, before the summer recess, to strike a committee to see if there was some kind of compromise over Employment Insurance.

The committee meets a few times with the Liberal members submitting ideas and suggestions.  What did the Cons do?  They submitted not even one shred of paper.  They drank the coffee and ate the donuts but did not do the work. 

Why?  Did they not have any ideas?  Were they just wasting time?  Did the donuts put them to sleep?

The answer is that they were being deceitful.  Two weeks after the Liberals gave up trying to engage the Cons, the Cons release a position on EI that has bought off the "Socialists and the Separatists" (Harper's term).  Did they not have any idea about their proposal during the summer?  Was it dreamed up after the committee last met?

Or were they just thumbing their nose at Canadians?

Oh, and by the way, Nepean-Carleton's, "Results for Himself", MP was on that committee.
