Patsy Stone on Politics

Politics. Royals. Hockey. Not necessarily in that order.

Traitor, thy name is Belinda!

Your beloved Patsy is still foaming at the mouth, 12 long hours after hearing of "The Honourable Belinda Stronach, M.P."'s defection from the Tories to the Liberals. I must conclude that loyalty is not something taught or valued at Magna Corp.

Belinda could have easily retained her "principles" (and her class) by choosing to serve out the remainder of her term as an Independent MP. Instead, she chose to sell her crucial vote to a corrupt, despotic government only a mother could love.

Does she really expect us to believe that her new Cabinet position is just a "welcome to the neighbourhood" gift from Martin and Co.? Wasn't it only yesterday that our beleaguered prime minister called for a return to dignity in the House of Commons? Easy for him to say when he knew that (most likely) his numbers were safe for Thursday's vote!

It's plain to see that I'm bitter this DELICIOUS political coup went to the Liberals. After all, they're going to get away with the sponsorship scandal -- isn't that prize enough?? Did they really have to steal our auto parts heiress? Let me be the first to call for a Desmarais in return! Perhaps Ms. Chretien-Demarais would like to be the new Opposition Critic for International Trade? Justin Trudeau as Opposition Critic for Health?

All I'm asking for is to see those smug Liberal bastards go down in scorching defeat just once before I die! Is that really too much to ask?
