Garbage article in the Globe and Mail on advisory panel

[TomCanuck]

One of of the worst I've seen. The comment about fully automatic weapons is real piece of work. Complete garbage.

It's the Globe & Mail. What did you expect?

Speaking of that whole issue, I wasn't particularly impressed with Harper's back-peddling as soon as Wendy Kookier piped up with the usual Gun Grabber organ music.

In my opinion, the media scares Harper a lot more than Cukier. By in large, they are anti-gun in the extreme. Any time there is a dramatic incident, they go off the deep end on gun control.

I'm not sure what the big deal is for the G&M and The Star except that they are on some sort of mission or starving for news to report. There were a ton of stories written about the committee back in early December including this one from the G&M itself:

Harper rejects committee’s advice to relax gun laws

OH, for sure.

Harper only ducked because he knows that Cukier has allies in the MSM. Not surprising, since she has a Ph.D. in Propaganda..... I mean, Information and Technology Management. It's the media blather he fears...definitely.

I would be seriously concerned to ever find Stockwell Day 'on my side'.

Shudder
