Being Denis Khadr

No wonder the federal Liberal Party is coming apart at the seams... there seems to be some contagious psychosis ripping through their ranks...

"I have a duty as defence critic to be on the field, to support the troops, support the mission," said Coderre.

Of course, Denis' version of being supportive... may not exactly dovetail with what the troops are thinking.

Speaking to reporters after his arrival at the base, Coderre said he was sticking by his opinion that Canada needs to end its combat role.

Not that Denis isn't a warrior at heart.

Coderre also said he won't travel off the main Kandahar base because of security concerns.

"I don't want to be a burden for security purposes so I'm not going to participate in an operation for now," he said.

Participate in an operation? Yeah... like that was ever on the agenda.

I'm guessing dumpy Denis doesn't participate in anything further... or more strenuous... than a waddle to the Timmy's trailer and a round of apple toffee danish.

The truth is, this dope is probably more popular outside the wire than he is inside... and no amount of play-acting is gonna change that.

Try to imagine what would have happened to young Pierre Trudeau if he'd been allowed to similarly harangue our troops on Juno Beach.

Can you say firing squad?

LAST WORD: "But what about my scrapbook?"

It was Coderre's misfortune to find few Canadians to talk to when he walked through a recreational area for troops on Monday.

He joined two Canadian soldiers for a coffee, but they refused to have their photograph taken with him.

Go home, you dipshit... the only person you're fooling is yourself.
