Nice tagline you corrupt Liberal thief.

I know plenty of people here already know this, but if you haven't tried Stoneface for lunch - DO IT!!!

....and a statement like that passes for humour where exactly?

MarcO - ya got some zero poop on your lip....

Priceless!

uh...Kev, you have persmission to post this?? :::calls Weir's legal team, anticipates legal action:::

Hart jokingly expressed some confusion, claiming that he'd been under the impression that the Dead were receiving a "Lifetime Pardon" rather than a Lifetime Achievement Award. (Mickey at Grammy's last night haha)

This is a bit of a stupid thread. If the cash was diverted to African aid who would honestly suggest: a) it be air-dropped, and said aid should delivered in the form of a handfull of cash. However, birdy's statement about Africans using it as toilet paper was a very poor choice of words and gives the impression that if a pallet of US cash were given to a (well intentioned) government of an African nation it could not be put to good use. Despite isolated areas, even the poorest African countries have currencies - have you done such travelling birdy? Deliver a vintage Ferrari to Muammar Gaddafi or somethin?

:::puts on Don McLean's American Pie:::

Congrats bro! :thumbup:

What happened to libertarian Birdy, what about the free market? society changes and it is reflected in the market, it appears you have changed your tune when it's in your own backyard.

Geez first The Tad Hackish Band blows the roof off the place and now this! :crazy:

I mean how much more preferntial could you really get? Perhaps tax breaks based on SIN #...

To some yes.

Hey ease up on The Bold.

Go get 'em tiger! (((vibeage)))

Suing?!!?!?! :::approves::: Go Debbers!

And if the tobacco companies that receive the help donate to her campaign it'll be like the Sponsorship Scandal only with a paper trail and in the open - Transparent Corruption!

Garth has always been a PROGRESSIVE Conservative anyways, he's probably found his best fit in the Liberal Party anyways. **timouse is right - the important thing to remember in this situation is that Turner isn't crossing the floor, the Conservatives kicked him out, so it's a little different dynamic than Stronach/Khan/Emerson, etc...

What's going on?

Loooooving this.... Heritage minister spends $5,500 on limo rides during Juno trip OTTAWA (CP) - Heritage Minister Bev Oda racked up $5,500 in limo bills as she travelled around Halifax last spring for the Juno Awards - eventually paying back nearly half out of her own pocket. Documents obtained by the Liberals under Access to Information show that Oda and her staff used a private limo company 11 times in four days, ordering several cars each day and paying drivers to stand by for as long as seven hours at a stretch. The bill, dated April 8, totalled $5,476. Documents show Oda wrote a cheque reimbursing the government for $2,226 on May 19. "When people started asking questions, the minister's conscience apparently got the better of her and she cut a cheque for $2,200, but when will the minister cough up another $3,200 to cover the rest of the cost of her Juno joyride?" Liberal MP Michael Savage asked in the House of Commons. Oda defended her choice of transportation, saying she followed government rules. "In carrying out my ministerial duties I followed all the guidelines appropriately . . . I did cover the additional costs that were not related to ministerial duties." Oda's office would not offer further comment about the bill. In one case, a minivan with a driver was sent to pick Oda and her staff up at the Halifax airport. Two hours after they were dropped off at their hotel, a sedan limousine was ordered for travel around the city for meetings. A third limousine, this time a stretch, was ordered later in the day to be on stand-by until 11 p.m. On the day of the Junos, the country's premier music awards, Oda had two limousines on stand-by until 11 p.m., and ordered a third later in the evening. Last year, Oda was forced to bow out of a fundraiser when the opposition pointed out that it was being organized by a media executive who lobbies the Heritage Department.
