So finally Parrish gets a thigh strapping for her idiocy and leftist emotional anti-USA rants. It’s about time, talk about a loser statesman. It seems the only feat of political ‘Ich bin ein Berliner’ this ridiculous mouthpiece has ever had is, well, her Bush bashing. ‘Lord, please give us some originality,’ some may pray, but they won’t find any in her. While her vocal disapproval of this subject is vilified by a good number of Canadians already, her comments on Kim Jong and Saddam seem to be muffled as I heard nothing of those.

When almost half of Canada agrees with her comments then, really, she has a point, as do a great number of her colleagues. It seems the only problem here is that she is in direct confrontation with the official line of the Liberal party (this time).

Aside from not having anything to compare her arguments with (as she has never really said anything of note before) I watched her make an ass of herself on Bullard and more recently on ‘This Hour has 22 Minutes’ using her anti American ranting as a war bonnet type of thing. You have to admit though, Maddona and Parish, they both like to ’shock’ us. Just seems there is a difference in the amount and quality of skin they do it with along with a large degree of frumpiness involved on the Canadian side.

Anyhow, it is all too easy to run her down at this point after her last stunt, jumping on a doll of Bush on ‘This hour has 22 minutes.’ This type of emotional distress from an elected official is bizarre to say the least however, understandable as it is a type of shtick, ‘raison d’etre’ for this here-to-now, little known politician. In fact, I had never heard of her until her ‘American bastards’ remarks were broadcast following a scrum with journalists two years ago.

Since then, she has been vilified, laughed at and also applauded by the anti war/USA crowd to no end. While this writer has no feelings of admiration for this idiotic and emotionally distraught frumpy nobody, he does appreciate the fact that she is being muzzled and thanks the Liberal hierarchy for that. On the other hand though, he is angered by the fact that Parish has the full support of a great number of Canadians, and, her argument (not her methods) are those of almost half of Canadians and a good many of her constituents. She dared to go against the ‘official’ party line, however idiotic her antics were, they are the antics and views of an elected official. One whom her electorate elected her in the last election if I remember right knowing exactly what kind of an amateur she was and may have elected her FOR her outspokenness and anti US opinions. I would thank Mr Martin for his display of sense in setting her on her ass, however, I would remind him that her people elected her to be their Liberal representative for her views, not him. He was elected by people like Parrish, not me.

I can’t believe that I am writing this but please, Mr. Martin, in the name of freedom, do the right thing and reinstate Carolyn Parish, with the condition that she keep her immature antics at the personal level, and like a controlled alcoholic, not allow them to cross into politics.
