1) The Hill Times has the Pat Martin idiocy of the week:<\/p>\n
Last week MPs<\/span> debated at length whether or not MP Pat Martin was allowed to refer to Agriculture Minister Chuck Strahl<\/span> as “Il<\/span> Deuce”<\/em>, the Italian fascist leader Benito Mussolini.<\/p>\n
[…]<\/p>\n
“We do call him Il<\/span> Deuce<\/em>, but it’s important to note that I did not call the minister a fascist. I implied that he was acting like a fascist…” [said Martin]<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
2) Speaking of media hungry politicians, Danny Williams is aghast <\/a>that Stephen Harper would dare run ads criticizing him…a mere two days after he ran ads criticizing Harper. Uh-huh.<\/p>\n
3) Check out Coyne<\/span> on the latest Vendu<\/span> Vendu<\/span><\/em> <\/a>controversy. It’s weird that no one picked up on this back in February when the ads first aired.<\/p>\n
4) The media took a tour of the death star <\/a>yesterday…the Liberal Party really <\/em>needs to improve its fundraising abilities because the cash flow advantage is making life a whole lot easier for the Tories.<\/p>\n
5) The Liblogs<\/span> Youtube<\/span> ads <\/a>are getting a lot of media play today. And due to their unhealthy obsession with all things Cherniak<\/span>, the Blogging Tories <\/a>are giving them even more publicity. Anyways, here’s my favourite<\/a>, similar to a post <\/a>I did last week:<\/p>\n
