Subject: RE: BS: Great Canadian Political Quote
Sure Cluin, whatever.   The Craig Oliver fan page from CTV says "Every newshound interested in the intricacies of Canada's political theatre" knows him...guess I'm not a newshound then, cause I never EVER (almost) watch TV news, except on election nights. I'm not one of the holier-than-thou TV abstainers, I watch it way too much but stick to the serious content. You know, Buffy. Frankly it baffled me when all the networks started promoting their newsreaders like they were rock stars. My favourite was "Pamela Wallin is like an alien that you are glad came to visit your planet"--what the hell?

Speaking of the Slayer, I learned a useful expression earlier this year. You could say that Larry Spencer's political career is Buffy-dead. He appears to be dead and buried, but he might come back to life later in the season...

As for the demons that lurk in the Saskatchewan psyche, they're everywhere else too, Metch. Why, I even find myself thinking things that are just plain wrong and intolerant sometimes, and I am the very model of civility and tolerance in a pragmatic leftist package.

However, no one has elected me to anything, and whether they had or not, I know not to blab my baser thoughts to the media...
