She should FINALLY do the right thing and resign. It would be her first and best decision she has made since becoming involved in politics.

I don't think that lady knows what the truth is, she is so power hungry there is no way she will step down.

Not to mention arrogant. Her reply in the Leg the other day was pretty clear she thinks everyone is stupid and beneath her.

Agreed.

Even though she should resign, there is no way that she will.

And remember, Harper actually WAS found "In contempt of parliament" once. Big whoop. Didn't mean a thing.

Did you read your link.....it says the Federal govt was in contempt of parliament.....and it seems that this was by a non-confidence vote.

So quite different.

You are right. It is quite different. In my example there was actually a vote and it was successful. Has there been any vote or charge laid in the issue we are discussing on this thread? Nope.

My point is that just because the opposition howls for a resignation, doesn't mean there is a thing behind it or that it's going to go anywhere. It's an everyday occurance in a parliamentary democracy. "Resign! Shame! Resign!" rings through the legislatures of the country daily.

I think She should not only be fired or what ever, but they should also have another election. As much as we don't like them I feel that it is required.

Okie are you out of town? Is that why you are missing this?
I feel like the devil in the nacho commercial.

The law firm was chosen and notified two months before she stepped down to run for leader. The 'losers' were also notified and surprise it was her signature on the notices.

The final contract was not inked until she was in the leadership race.

So she made the choice when she was at the helm, all parties notified, but by the time it was typed and required signing she was 'not in that position."
