POSTED RESPONSE TO A COLUMN BY MARGARET WENTE IN TORONTO'S GLOBE AND MAIL
Yes, it was Theatre of the Absurd.
Peter Kent blubbering about things he doesn't even understand, embarrassing himself and our country before the world.
And all those tell-tale photos of Peter, red-faced and strained.
I'm sure he was seriously getting into the sauce each night, alone
in his hotel room, re-living in his mind how he embarrassed himself that
day.
The only dignified act possible for this shabby little man is to resign.
But we all know that's not on, don't we? Incompetents in big jobs
always hang on to every rank and privilege to which their undeserved
office entitles them.
Helena Guergis had to be thrown out the door, didn't she?
Oh, and let's not forget that this absurd little man, when Junior
Minister of Nothing, almost declared war for Israel on behalf of 34
million Canadians.
That lunatic outburst would have got him fired in any normal
government as completely out of order and a potential danger to the
country.
Instead in Harperland, it got him promoted to enjoy full ministerial privileges and all the expense-account booze he can possibly drink.
