peter…….. where in your archives are those balancing pro-Harper posts?

What does non-partisan have to do with balance?

That aside I would suggest that you would have a difficult time finding many posts here that require a pro-Harper post to provide balance to, however…

In the partisan dens of the blogoshphere there is a very prevalent, ‘if you’re not with us then you must be for the other guy‘ – it’s an incorrect assumption brought on by excessive partisanship, you should work at overcoming that.

Are you trying to make Harper’s day by accusing him of seducing the GG? If I recall correctly in on of his first comments in the House as PM, he had never been accused of seducing even his wife…

SL/Balb/et al at SL, voted for you already.

Could that be how Harper got his prorogue?

Given the lack of transparency, could be…

Or maybe Harper’s meeting with the GG was so long because many nasty and sordid things were going on in the maid’s chambers off the Rideau’s kitchen?
