I think they should announce a big party with free booze and food in the Senate. They'd ALL show up that night.

Then while they are inside we could bolt the doors shut, do a "Cask of Amontillado" manoevre on `em, and abolish the senate once and for all. Makes sense, for all the good it does. Tip over the trough.

As far as the Canadian Right goes, who can take them seriously? Made up of the remnants of the party Lyin' Brian Mulroney single-handedly destroyed and that group of misfit rednecks, religious whackos, and racists that Pressed-On Manning tried furiously to clean up before they stabbed him in the back and chose "Wetsuit Boy" as their leader (until they tipped him out of the rowboat too). Yep, it'll be the Grits again, this time under Paul Martin (who should probably be considered the right-wing candidate anyway).

Such is my out-on-a-limb prediction. So let it be written! Abracadabra! Hocus Pocus Dominocus! Simsim Salabim! Rozann Kobar! Oga Nabosi! Ian Hanomansing! Annamaria Tremonti! Ravi Baichwal!
