CBC realty check

I was happy to see the CBC debunk the Paul Martin lie on the National last night. It was pointed out that the Conservatives don't have a deal with the Bloq outside of a vote to bring the Liberals down. I'm glad 'cause my previous post is just too creepy to look at as a campaign poster. One area the CBC failed was on the Conservatives calling the Liberals corrupt. Reality Check on the CBC:You failed to mention the countless Liberals describing criminal ,corrupt and unethical behavior almost every day on national T.V.
I also wonder why when reporting on the information coming out of Gomery it is important for your talking heads to point out that the "opposition is going to jump all over this". This suggests to the viewer that while Liberals are walking around with sacks full of your cash to stuff into the pockets of their buddies, the opposition is going to blow this way out of proportion. It is not appropriate to had commentary about a reaction to corruption, just show the reaction, "This is what the Conservatives had to say", roll clip.


It would seem that the side deals Paul Martin has been making with Premiers and Phd's has hurt his Image, proving that what works for Martin Sheen in the West Wing won't cut it in our Westminster system.

Those people out there that still suggest we should wait for Gomery are uninformed about the reality taking place in Ottawa and of course I blame the media for an ignorant populace. I'm going to spell it out to you now, pay attention please. The Conservatives and the democratically elected members of the Bloq have said they can't support a directionless, corrupt government. They make up the majority. What the Gomery waiters are saying then is that we should shut the country down for 10 months to get recommendations on how to run the country better.

Hey!, It is really simple folks, don't exchange sacks of public cash to prop up your party. Do we really need Gomery to tell us this?
Maybe we need to know who done it? It seems an entire wing of the Liberal Party was guilty. Is finding out who, so important that we should shut the country down for 10 months?

( Head tilted, rubbing chin)
If only there was an economists to run the country while we figure out the question of, who was responsible?
