Yet another Toronto Star tongue-bath...
...for the party of "we'll tell you how to live"...
To McGuinty, being called Premier Dad is a compliment that implies stability and a steady hand at the tiller of government. “He honestly likes it,” confides one Liberal. “Because it really is who he is.”Good sweet jebus... is this government... or some hippie-dippy cult of personality from the sixties?
Backbenchers vie for his attention, hoping to demonstrate they are cabinet material while constantly worrying he may discover some minor personal transgression that would derail their careers.
Ministers strive to remain in the executive council though his remoteness leaves some feeling wary or even vulnerable.

I'm so fed up with the liberty hating leftards I could scream, instead I'll protest using colored garbage bags and refusing to let the snivel servants access my property on said property. They are free to access it on the side walk or across the street.

i love the part where "backbenchers vie for his attention".
sounds like daddy dalton might be a bit of an abusive parent.

Well, if you did a search and replace for McGuinty, inserting Harper, you'd have the next Star hit piece on what's wrong with Harper's management style.
What's good when Liberals do it, after all, is bad when Tories do it...
Except JA, if we EVER did hear Harper being referred to in that way by people in his party, the Liberals and their coalition partners in the MSM would be blaring it from every single pulpit they could find. That hasn't happened has it? Kind of renders your little "what if" scenario utterly vapid.
I yield to your obvious superiority concerning vapidity, Michael.
I guess something got lost in the translation...and if you haven't read anything about Harper being remote and his ministers worrying about what happens for minor transgressions (Guergis ring a bell?), then you obviously haven't read anything on Canadian politics the last five years.
