I think I agree with Warren here. Making jokes about assassinating our Prime Minister is not funny – especially in official Liberal newsletters.
Who’s responsible for approving this garbage anyway?
Sandy has the background story which made it onto the National Newswatch frontpage today.
Also please see David Akin’s report – Tories demand apology over Grit joke:
…Liberals accused Dykstra of feigned outrage timed to coincide with Dion’s visit Wednesday to St. Catharines…
…”Dykstra has not conducted himself in a manner I would expect from an elected official,” said Jane Cornelius, the president of the Liberal riding association in St. Catharines. “An elected official who had concerns would have contacted me. I think this is further evidence of the ongoing maligning of people and their character…”
This is just so vile and disgusting I can hardly believe it. She should be fired.

Thanks to Sammy for this one. Jennifer Wright has issued a press release regarding legal action proceeding against the Liberal Party of Canada. News conference to begin shortly.
Developing.

11 am Update – CTV’s Robert Fife to Kate Wheeler just now – "It could be more of a publicity stunt than anything to be taken very seriously…"
11:04 News conference begins.
11:08 Jennifer Wright asks who the hell does Garth Turner think he is to launch a personal attack against her on his website?
11:11 – Jennifer is taking questions.
She is coming across (to me anyway) like a very down-to-earth, regular person who got sideswiped by the Liberal Entitlement Machine.
11: 14 – The Robert Fife and The Kate Wheeler are now discussing Wright’s "The Macdonald’s" comparison.
National Newswatch Update: CP – Company seeks $8.5 million from Liberals for use of Green Shift name. As The Kate and The Robert said, that’s a lot of green!

SDA - I Endorse Stephane Dions’ Carbony Green Tax Grab Plan.
Check this out at National Post Full Comment : Exactly whose Green Shift is it?
Dion calls ‘Green Shift’ lawsuit ‘deplorable’ – CTV. (Bad move, Stephane. Save the hyperboles for your political opponents.)

Jeff Allan just had Aaron Detlor and Ken Hewitt on his show, discussing native protesters ignoring a court injunction to stay away from a Brantford construction site.
Of course, no arrests were made. Ken Hewitt said it’s like déjà vu. Detlor says it is justified because it is native land.
Do you think this is justified? Would you buy a property in Brantford now?
Jeff says it’s (native occupation) like ‘gangrene coming up your leg.’
