I think TDH, though, went a little further. And a Habs fan? You're already a lawyer so that's like strike one. You're a Habs fan too? Well, at least you don't like the Leafs.<BR/><BR/>And Zac, man, we're not even going there.<BR/><BR/>Bob, if only we'd picked Gilbert Perault instead. C'est la vie.<BR/><BR/>Jonathan, accusations? A touch harsh mon ami. I read your response though, and thank-you for the kind words. And for calling me sly, that was cool. <BR/><BR/>I still stand by my post however. And it's not a Dion thing, I like to think of myself as an equal opportunity defender of truth, justice and the Canadian way. I've even stood up for Ignatieff from time to time. <BR/><BR/>While I will grant you I may have exagerated slightly for the sake of humour, with the questions you wrote you seem to indicate(in your own sly way) that you feel David is influencing Stephane's perspective on these issues, implying he is coimng around to his way of thinking and/or shares his views. <BR/><BR/>While I linked to you as an example as it was the straw that drove me to post, many others over the past day have more directly, and less slyly, tried to argue that Dion must share some of Orchard's, shall we say more wacky, views. My point was merely that just because some endorses a candidate, it doesn't mean the endorser shares all the endorsee' views.<BR/><BR/>Why, I'd even bet Dion is a Habs fan, and I don't hold that against him.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14971310821484459106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-1155763749112818422006-08-16T17:29:00.000-04:002006-08-16T17:29:00.000-04:00Funny post, but you obviously didn't read my post ...Funny post, but you obviously didn't read my post very carefully.<BR/><BR/>I have posted my response to your accusations on TDH.TDH Strategieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15313035029526206267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-1155763602530456912006-08-16T17:26:00.000-04:002006-08-16T17:26:00.000-04:00I didn't know Vancouver still had a hockey team.

Say nothing much about the endorsement (don't endorse the endorsement) and certainly don't pen an op-ed piece together in the Globe. <BR/><BR/>And, if you like the Habs (as every hockey-lover ought), don't make a big deal about Jeff's deviant hockey endorsements.<BR/><BR/>;-)Ted Bettshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06223729391428982448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-1155756417014965382006-08-16T15:26:00.001-04:002006-08-16T15:26:00.001-04:00What a burn.

Except the TDH post you link to (and the post of mine he links to) don't make any attempt to impute support by Dion for Orchard's views. <BR/><BR/>TDH asks a few questions about some odd interpretation of history as well as some odd overlooking of some history in Dion's op-ed piece. Jeffry Simpson (I believe it was him) raised some of the same questions. TDH merely links it to Orchard in that putting in such references to Kosovo would have ruffled Orchard's feathers (being a supporter of Milosovic).<BR/><BR/>As for my post, I also don't impute anything on Dion. Obviously, he's got his own views on things. I just questioned whether this is a good thing or a bad thing for Dion, indeed whether it is a good thing or a bad thing for the party in general.Ted Bettshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06223729391428982448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-1155754228025696482006-08-16T14:50:00.000-04:002006-08-16T14:50:00.000-04:00Very funny.
