If he waits 'til January...

...maybe Emperor Gilles I gets to call the shots...
-- OTTAWA -- Prime Minister Stephen Harper will fill up to 18 vacant seats in the Senate before Christmas, Sun Media has learned.

The senior Conservative said while Harper has signalled his intention to fill the Senate seats if legislation was stalled or blocked, recent speculation about putting appointees like Green Party Leader Elizabeth May or separatist selections from Bloc Quebecois Leader Gilles Duceppe into the red chamber have triggered the urgency.

“It would be even more undemocratic to have an unelected coalition government fill Senate vacancies so we will proceed prior to Christmas.”

...and he did everything but fall to his knees and kiss King Iggy's feet. Now he's rubbing up against Taliban Jack's leg and purring his admiration.

Not even a pretense at impartial observation.

And we pay for this?

Oh boy... Lloyd over at CTV gets sloppy soft-porn seconds.
