On August 16, 2007, Con spindoc, Tim Powers, penned these words for the Hill Times:
"While the country's economy is going gangbusters, while separatism is a distant memory, and while we enjoy comparative social harmony, this PMO gets little credit for any of it. It has to be pretty frustrating."
Eighteen months later the economy is in the toilet, separatism is on the rise due to Harper's tirade against the BQ and the country has never be more polarize since... I don't remember when.
So what does Tim say now? "-------" He's got nothing to say. Can't you even find a way to blame this on Ignatieff?

Hill Times Reporter Proclaims His Superiority
Hill Times Report Tom Korski, a man who never tires at leading with his chin on any issue, did it again in the current Hill Times (October 27, 2008). In his writing he asks why Dion could not understand a simple question put to his by Steven Moore of CTV Atlantic. Korski states that the question was very simple - "What would you have done that Mr Harper has not done?"
I would not want to contradict the genius that is Korski, but if your are going to argue a point, at least get the point straight. The question asked by Moore was " "If you were prime minister now, what would you have done about the economy and this crisis that Mr. Harper has not done?" The question is a bit cumbersome for the average Canadian, especially one who's native language is not English, but then again Korski is not your average Canadian. He is SuperCanadian! Able to leap to any conclusion, even without a basis in fact!
But Korski is just filled with gems dying to get out,. On June 9 he lamented that the media was not picking up the signals that the economy was about to be flushed down the toilet. This was at a time when the PM and his FinMin were telling us that the economy was strong. Korski didn't bother to mention that the Toronto Star and the Globe and Mail were running stories on the failing Ontario economy and that it was the right-wing press at the National Post, the Sun and Ottawa Citizen that were sucking up the Con message.
