As for your brilliant assertion that all misunderstanding could be cleared up by more apt use of Google, that misinformation is the biggest impediment to utopian world peace, yeah, thanks for stepping up to the plate on this one, but no. Did it ever occur to you that educated people can be quite stupid too? Well, maybe I’m asking the wrong person, educated or not.

Source this well documented “fleecing” and maybe we can have a conversation. Regardless, when people’s reputations are at stake the media should show some discression before reporting news that may or may not be true. Politics is not just about “two sides of a story” or personal drama, and there are standards of dignity that our public leaders should expect the media to uphold. It doesn’t take much—as this cabinet controversy highlights—to get the Central Canadian media in a snit, demonstrating little regard or appreciation for how Canada’s political regime ought to work, and thereby “entertaining” their viewers with the divel of personality conflicts and other soap operas that so dominates their news coverage.

Going back to what Rempel said, with which I whole heartedly agree: “I was not aware that the only prerequisite for investigation of a private citizen was an upset media. Hell, if that were true, the frenetic and perpetually-outraged Canadian media would have half the country under constant wiretaps.”

And don’t get me wrong, American media can get out of line as well, especially with their recent reporting on the Vice-President’s hunting “incident”. In this case they are inventing controversy over why they were not notified right away, as though it mattered one bit whether or not they knew about it at all; which they no doubt would have reported on, but it’s certainly not the out-rage they are making it out to be.

Don’t let the facts ever guide any of your arguements – typical Conservatives… God bless Garth – if only more of you were like him, you know, honest and such.

This is what Garth Turner had posted on his blog last night,
and then he shows up on Question Period today and starts it all up again. I guess moving on in Garth’s World means something entirely different than the average Canadians.
