JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: A RIDICULOUS COLUMN TRYING TO EXCUSE NIGEL WRIGHT'S INEXCUSABLE BEHAVIOR BY CITING HIS REVULSION FOR "PORKERY"



COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE NATIONAL POST


Oh, please.

Nigel Wright’s “revulsion at porkery”? It's just one ridiculous fantasy notion after another in the National Post.

Men at Nigel Wright's level do not deal in fantasies and sentiment.

They deal in realpolitik or they wouldn't keep their posts.

The realpolitik here is simple enough for anyone to understand: Wright paid $90,000 to shut someone up who had damaging information, and that someone happened to be a Senator who happened to be appointed by Stephen Harper, and Wright's act is a crime, full stop.

And no one on this planet, knowing what a ferociously controlling person Stephen Harper is, can ever believe that he was not informed and had not approved beforehand. Saying anything else is perjury.


Harper is a man with a ferocious temper in private - he is known to have thrown a chair in one meeting - and no one would dare do what Wright claims he did.
