Blogging Tory Sandy Crux (who still hilariously refers to herself as "non-partisan") manages to mangle the latest news:
This week Liberal Leader Stephane Dion has been calling on PM Harper to fire Natural Resources Minister Gary Lunn. Why?
Yes, Sandy, why? Ooooooh, I can't wait for Sandy's answer to this one:
Because, Dion says, Lunn has shown incompetence because he only released a damning report by Auditor General Sheila Fraser this week — a report Lunn allegedly knew about since last September; and because he hasn’t been able to clean up all the issues at the Atomic Energy Agency of Canada (AECL), especially at Chalk River where the medical isotopes are produced.
Um ... no.
In fact, Sandy, regardless of what Dion said, Lunn's problem is bigger than that, as you can read here (emphasis added):
OTTAWA — The head of Canada's Nuclear Safety Commission is accusing Natural Resources Minister Gary Lunn of improper interference with the agency...
Mr. Lunn's letter, and comments made by the minister during a Dec. 8 telephone conversation “are examples of improper interference with both the institutional independence of the CNSC and with the administration of justice,” said Ms. Keen...
And, one might add, there's already precedence for resignation for that kind of inappropriate behaviour, as blogger Impolitical explains in detail here. One would think that that's the kind of detail that might be useful to know, and to pass on to one's readership.
Then again, Sandy is a Blogging Tory -- like you expected any better from her?

This has nothing to do with Dion.
Of course, on some level, the impartialicious Sandy Crotch knows that.
Ya know, CC, every time I think your dumbfuckitude has peaked, you write something like this.
What a dumbfuck. I mean, one expects this level of dumbfuckitude from ti-guy, but...
...Wait. What was I just saying?
I don't know, Patrick ... what were you just saying? I kind of nodded off as I was waiting for you to make a point.
Well that was certainly edifying of the luminous Mr. Ross, now wasn't it?

Truly a man of letters ...
You know CC, you were lamenting the fact that Dr. Dawg was having all the fun with his troll but, obviously, we have our very own in the stalkalicious Mr. Ross - here and here.
I don't think I need to point out much of anything, actually.
The article in question exposes how Chalk River was a serious issue for fully 13 years before this government comes to power, and -- hoof! -- all down the memory hole, huh, kids?
Heh. Whatta bunch of dumbfucks.
