Is that Burning Straw I smell
Steven Harper tried to erect a strawman in parliament but the opposition have set fire to it. Only Harper and his neocon wannabes have brought ethnicity into this debate but Harper is trying to make it seem as if that’s the central focus of the opposition.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper was slammed in the House of Commons on Wednesday for bringing up the Greek heritage of two Tories at the centre of a political controversy.
Harper was being questioned about alleged political interference by PMO spokesman and , a longtime Tory supporter and party organizer in Quebec.
Asked by Bloc Québécois MP whether he ever met Housakos at 24 Sussex Drive, Harper responded:
“The Bloc member mentioned two people who are of Greek origin, one who was an employee here in Ottawa, another one who was a supporter of the Conservative party of Montreal.
“The fact there are two Montreal gentleman of Greek origin doesn’t mean there’s a conspiracy here,” Harper said in French.

Government House Leader defended ’s remarks, saying the prime minister was “defending the people of Greek origin from what seemed to be unremitting attacks from the opposition.”
So how about dealing with the appearance of corruption in your office Stephen. Just because you’re from Alberta doesn’t mean you’re any good at , but you are full of it.
