And isn't it ironic? Don't you think?

On August 8, 2006, MP Garth Turner comments on my blog, in part:

…So, get it right or shut up.

Personal regards,
Garth

On October 18, 2006, MP Garth Turner is suspended from the Conservative caucus and becomes a free speech poster child.

It's like a black fly in your chardonnay, you know?

The other day I received an email from a fellow blogger, asking me what I thought about the Garth Turner situation. I replied as follows...

"I only know what I see in the papers, but I think Garth is all about, well... Garth. He obviously feels his own needs, whether it's just ego, or a totally separate agenda, are more important than the party line."

Do I think he was unfairly booted out of caucus? Lemme put it this way... if he was an outlaw biker, he'd be lyin' in a shallow grave with a small hole behind his ear.

Jeff,

I forgot all about yours and Garth's little spat. That was fun I thought. He's quite a firecracker! Or, dare I say, a Maverick, who ultimate purpose is to be considered a Maverick. A Maverick without a cause, if you will... ohhhhh his Maverickness! He is defined by his Maverickicious nature.
