In today’s Sun: say one thing, we’ll do another

Which brings me, in typically circuitous and long-winded fashion, to my point: In 2011, with elections aplenty — federally, provincially — sometimes political parties are best judged by who their media “enemies” are, and not their media “friends.”

Thus, this week, various Ontario Liberal campaign volunteers (of which I am proudly one) could be spotted shouting “woot!” when they espied the front page of the newspaper you now clutch in your sweaty maulers.

Wednesday’s Toronto Sun front: “DALTON’S FIBERALS.” Tuesday: “PREEM FLUNKS FISCAL TEST.” Also Tuesday: “DALTONOMICS: ONTARIO’S ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE LAGS.”

And that’s just this week! Last week was (happily) even worse!

Now, if you are a charter member of the latte-sipping, Volvo-driving, Lib-left establishment like me, those headlines should upset you, right? They should cost you votes, right?

Um, no.

    Mr. WK: Maybe you have seen this study – It was done for the States, but I am sure it applies here as well.

    Lets all remember who this scum bag Kinsellas close friend is. Yes the crook, Mr Shawinigate, Mr adscam, Mr cash in brown paper envelopes in Quebec restaurants…yes Mr golf balls, the bumbling idiot himself John Chretien.

    So what does this tell you about Kinsella when you have slimy, sleazy corrupt friends like this? Exac;ety, Kinsella is just like them. I’m mean just look at who pays him to write this crap. Ya, Quebecor!!!

    So keep writing scum bag, you give us something to laugh about weekly.
