CBC News - Calgary - PM won't punish Shory over fraud investigation
It would appear Harper has learned from the Guergis affair: Let the courts deal with it.
Me Gawd, he can learn.
But while Harper has learnt his lesson well, it would seem not so John Mckay; was the Honourable member of Scarborough asleep while the whole Guergis affair exploded in the PM's face?
If Little Johnny believes in due process and can recognize that Caucus membership is an internal matter for a political party to decide, he'll let the police handle this. Unless he wants to get a taste of what the PM got over his handling of the Guergis affair? Johnny's been a little bored lately and looking for action is he? Trying to score little brownie points for himself? Yeah, the PM tried that with the Guergis affair, and look where it got him?
If I were the PM, I'd try to give this little Johnny character as much airtime as possible and leave the camera rolling. There's nothing better than to watch the opposition shoot itself in the foot. When you know they're going to do that, the best thing to do is provide the loaded rifle with a smile.
