What they’re blogging about instead of Kenney, Day and terrorists

Just for fun, I thought I’d take a look at what some of your “top drawer” Blogging Torries have been blogging about instead of, and apparently consider more important than, the links that the Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness, Stockwell Day, and the Parliamentary Secretary to the Prime Minister, Jason Kenney, have to a banned terrorist group. Call it your Friday smile.

Nothing on the Conservative government’s terrorist loving twosome. Kate does find the time to oh so cleverly call women that don’t support her views on women’s rights pigs as part of a screed on the Conservative blosphere’s crusade to eliminate the Status of Women…agency (emphasis mine):

It isn't just "social conservatives" who want the "Harper government to axe Status of Women Canada" and marginalizing their critics in such a manner is disingenuous - at best. Had you bothered to report on who and what SOW spends our taxdollars on, those fearful squeals from feminists might have been placed in the appropriate context.

Clever and classy. But then, she did coin the term Liberanos.

Well, the Blogging Tory grand poobah has been taking it easy since his victory over the forces of evil, aka the CBC, so he’s only had time to post a YouTube video and do some housekeeping lately. I’m sure that any day now though he’ll turn those fine journalism skills he employed on the Borys/Hubert affair to cleaning up the rot in his own party. Any day now. (Love those colourful boxes, btw).

Steve Janke

Besides leading the crusade against the Status of Women, what else is the angry man up to? Well, one thing he’s not up to is wondering why Kenney and Day are so chummy with banned supporters of terrorism. What has he found worthy of his posting time? Well, apparently he’s shocked to learn that, at the recent Liberal caucus meeting, people had different opinions on stuff and they, like, talked about it. Sounds crazy, I know, to a member of the Harper Way or the Highway party. Democracy can be messy. Scroll down, still no terrorists, but if you want the latest on the guy accused of committing a murder in the U.S. some years ago, look no further.

UPDATE: For the record, Janke has finally weighed in with a piece of silly spin that absolves Kennney of any responsibility (he's just stupid and ignorant, it was an unnamed staffer's fault), attempts to shift the blame to the Liberals, and completly ignores the role of Stockwell Day, the Minister responsible for this stuff, who is also knee deep (probably because that would negate his attempted anti-Liberal counterspin). Now we know why the Conservative spin machine was silent for so long: they've been furiously digging for something, anything they can use to shift the spotlight off of them. Accountability if necessary, but not necesarily accountability, that's the Conservative motto.
