After yesterday\u2019s release of Liberal tape translations<\/a>, it appears more tapes have been found and translated. I think you\u2019ll agree this casts a whole new light on the scandal:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

TM: Well, I have talked to Volpe, already. So \u2014
GG: Is he manageable?
TM: Yes.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Translation<\/em><\/strong>: TM – \u201cVolpe will lay off\u2026if you support him for leadership<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

GG: Belinda Stronach and others position, they had a straight forward
deal.
UD: You see, every circumstance is different. Your circumstances are
different, mine were different, Scott\u2019s were different.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Translation<\/em><\/strong>: UD – \u201cFace it buddy, you\u2019re no Belinda.\u201d<\/p>\n

GG – We have to rush through because of the Question Period
UD – Today, Question Period is at 2 PM
GG – Don\u2019t you have to prepare for it.
UD – No, I can just prepare in 5 minutes, in the car.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/em><\/strong>
Translation<\/em><\/strong>: UD – \u201cWhy would I spend time preparing for QP? Have I done anything worthy of being asked a question in the last 8 months?\u201d<\/p>\n

TM: We all have to be agree\u2026 whether we can have\u2026 an honest to be an answer knowing that I said some one with a caliber and courage in the context of you and your wife\u2026<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Translation<\/em><\/strong>: \u201cSorry, I just watched Star Wars last night, and I can\u2019t stop talking like Yoda.\u201d<\/p>\n

TM: Let me make it absolutely clear that we are a welcoming party; we will do everything we can. Obviously for us continuing to expand our base in BC and in prominent communities in this country is a political priority for us. It is a welcoming mat that has a lot of nice comfy fur on it. [Laughs]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Translation<\/em><\/strong>: \u201cThe Liberal Party is a welcoming mat with a lot of nice comfy fur\u2026unless you\u2019re Sheila Copps\u2026or Tony Kuo\u2026or Steven Hogue\u2026or Warren Kinsella\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
