Well, that was fast.
Apparently not only are the daily briefings down for the count – okay, being “pulled back” as per Canadian Press, but we know what that means – but remember that totally not at all negative site that the Tories leaked to the Sun and CanWest earlier? The one with the puffin flying over Dion’s head and, in the immortal words of Julie Van Dusen this morning, “doing something you don’t want puffins to do”?
Well, it’s not doing that anymore. Unfortunately, it did it just long enough to inspire a Liberal press release – complete with screenshot of the original site – condemning the Conservatives for having “crossed the line”:

when a bird shits on you it’s supposed to be good luck
““doing something you don’t want puffins to do”?
durned CBC keeps paying for itself.
I wonder when Harper’s competition is going to cotton on to the “Excuse Generator” feature? So easy to insert pithy anti-Harper messages and send them EVERYWHERE…
The shrug can make it look like Dion is asking Harper “Is that the best you can do?”
The poopin puffin is simply a graphic example of what Harper and his Harris-henchmen have been doing to Dion for 2 years (and to Canadian democracy for much longer).
Anyone associated with fishing, the shore and the docks knows its GOOD LUCK to have your shoulder pooped on by a bird. So, its a good thing the poop got pulled …… who wants to wish Dion good luck? Unless, of course, it was just Harper being gracious.
What a shame the pooping puffin had to ruin the site. “Dionbook” is hilarious. The profiles of journalists, bloggers, and politicos is hilarious, more tasteful, and it would appear solely targetted at us political junkies.
I’m aghast. They know you want on Ryan Sparrow’s mailing list. They purposefully set out to let you know they know you want on Ryan Sparrow’s mailing list.
And yet who isn’t on Ryan Sparrow’s mailing list?
Insulting our Kady–don’t they know you have a following?
My question is that if a party has so much support, so many wonderful ideas, great policies, such stellar candidates, an unquestionable right to rule, why must it disseminate such crap. If they have nothing to fear, why bother? And why waste time appealing to individuals that are obviously too young to vote? What next? Fart jokes?
No fart jokes. The Liberals will tax you on the methane.
So much for my right-wing conspiracy theories. Put the best & brightest together, and they come up with this.
Jenn – I know! I mean, really – you ruin ONE secret Sunday afternoon press briefing, and he just won’t let it go.
