Harvard still sucks

This was on the FRONT PAGE of the Toronto Star Yesterday.

This gets to me for a few reason. First of all, it isn't news. Honestly I don't see it as much more than a free ad spot for the Etobicoke Lakeshore Campaign and at that it isn't a good one. With so much going on in the campaign in the last few days one would think that there was something better for the front page than this one-sided drivel.

The other thing that should be noted is that while Iggy was at this $300 rubber chicken swaray he was supposed to be attending a locally televised debate on Goldhawk Live with the other Candidates from his riding. You know the one they forced him into with classic Martinite goon tactics.


The Local Liberal Campaign was given almost a month's notice about the televised debate and Goldhawk's people tried to accommodate the falling star candidate's schedule as much as they could. In fact they tried to accommodate ALL the local campaigns meaning that Goldhawk gets something. The Campaign's excuse was that Ignatieff "didn't do TV appearances outside of the riding." The taping was done at Roger's Toronto studio a 20 min drive from the riding and Broadcast on the local channel 10 station.

Apparently TV appearances outside of the riding are out of the question but fundraisers rally's and oh yea LIVING FOR 30 YEARS outside of the riding that's fine.

I may not have a Harvard Degree but the more I read about this guy the more I can't understand why anyone in Etobicoke would vote for him. Not because he's pro Iraq War, not because he's Anti Ukrainian, not because he encourages the use of torture, not even because he hasn't lived in the riding or even the Country for 30 years, but simply because the guy is obviously and simply a self-absorbed, arrogant, elitist prick........hmmm suddenly the connection to The Star makes sense.
