... and the BT stupid continues to burn.


Witness the buffoonery:

Liberals sending out Tory-esque 10%ers

Well what do you know? All those Tory 10%ers the Liberals have been complaining about? Well they've finally followed suit, and are sending out photocopied 10%ers just like the Tories! I just got one in my mailbox today!

So, if I EVER hear a Liberal complaining about them again, I'll just refer them to Liberal Caucus Services.

Yea, as ususal... hypogrits.

Would someone like to educate said buffoon, or shall we just snicker, roll our eyes, and move on?

I've attempted to educate him. Undoubtedly I just wasted my time though.

By the way, you'll really like this one. A conservative talk radio host agreed to be waterboarded. He lasted 6 seconds.

I left a comment stating that it is wrong for MP's to push pr and progganda out on the public's dime,... But he hasn't felt the polite comment fit his world view of what "liberals" should be saying,...

It is wrong when the CPC did it,...
It is still wrong when the Liberals do it too,...

Gee so hard to keep the rules straight when they are applied equally,...

PS, Robert,... I get 10%ers from the NDP about 3 times a month,...

Is your MP an NDPer, Zorph? The 10%ers are meant to be used by MPs to communicate with their riding. So unless you're getting them from an NDPer in another riding there's nothing ethically wrong with it.

Of course, now that nearly everyone has internet access the 10%ers are a waste of money. MPs can communicate with their constituents a lot cheaper with a website.

I live in Iggy's riding, and get them from Jack, at least they deal with actual government business with the ndp slant and spin, one or two were anti liberal.

You may legitimately get 10%ers from someone who is not your mp if the ridings share a postal code, right? Otherwise you shouldn't get them. That was what I gleaned from this episode.

Anyway ... I live in Victoria, and I don't really care that much if some tory in newfoundland wants apparently wishes to tell me how great Stephen Harper is and how evil criminals and liberals are. It's junk mail. And it is wasteful. And it abuses parliament's free mailing privileges. But it is small potatoes.

Zorph, are you on Jack's mailing list?

I get stuff from Jack out here on the Wet Coast but I'm on Jack's mailing list.
