After a whole week riding around on a bus and eating lots of food, Liberal leader Mike Ignatieff has earned a few days off. As Kady O'Malley tells it, he needs some time to "refresh" after his whole week of campaigning. He must prepare himself for a 4 day tour of Quebec that starts off in Maxime Bernier's backyard in the Beauce. I suppose the few weeks off Iggy had before this tour even began was not sufficient. Let's be fair, Iggy was so busy skipping votes in the legislature last session that he deserves a vacation, a vacation from his problems.
Has anyone on that bus been counting how many Tim Horton's stops there have been? There have been reports that Iggy has been seen on this trip drinking Starbucks. I have yet to substantiate these allegations. Is the Liberal Express going to be running into August? If you go by the events schedule on the Liberal Party website, it appears the Summer Tour is over July 30th when it only just started on the 13th. This is a 3 week tour that is starting to feel more like a 3 hour tour.
Iffy flew to the Saskatoon meeting, did the reporters stay on the bus?
ReplyDeleteThe difference is that the Minnow had a fearless crew.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pathetic bunch. No policy, no campaign stamina or smarts, no bench strength.
ReplyDeleteWilson; You can't expect Iggy to take a bus through Winnipeg to Saskatoon! Ewww!
ReplyDeleteWho will play Gilligan now that Warren K's no longer on the SS Iggy?
ReplyDeleteCheck out the photos taken inside the bus and you will see Starbuck cups on iggys desk. Somebody had to bring them there.
ReplyDeleteAnd, how many Tim has he stopped at. Why isn't there a photo of him drinking Tim's coffee.
Of course he could only buy something if his wife gave him his allowance and said it was ok.
This guys a bust -He needs to give it up and go back to Harvard unless he wore out his welcome. Bring on the next contender - would that be Boob Rae? Neither one has the moxy to run a country and people will not forget the Ex NDP premier of On and the way he run the province into the ground. They are still paying for it today.
