Pierre Poilievere: "We know" the Liberals harbor extremist groups, hard-left individualsPoilievere recently went on the radio and declared:
(Excerpts/emphasis mine):
All of us are looking to understand why the Liberals have had this sudden flip-flop. We're looking for an explanation of their motives. Now we know that a lot of extremist groups and people with some very hard left wing views have advocated for along time that these provisions should be scrapped. Now a lot of those people supported Stéphane Dion in the leadership. A lot of them are in Stéphane Dion's caucus. And for example, there are members of Stéphane Dion's Liberal caucus who want to legalize Hezbollah, which is a terrorist organization from south Lebanon. There are people in the Liberal caucus that want to shut down the investigation into the Air India terrorist attack, which is the worst terrorist attack in Canadian history. And up until recently, the Liberal-the former Liberal government was blocking the very anti-terror-the very RCMP investigation and hearings into that Air India investigation. So, we know there are extremist elements in the Liberal party.
(...)
...we know there is a extremist element in the Liberal party, generally, that has been very vocal in opposing measures that are designed to combat terrorism. And it would seem that Mr. Dion has collapsed under the pressure from those groups. Because that's the only way to explain his sudden flip-flop.

Holy sh... I don't hear the MSM saying very much about this. And where's the standard, automatic Liberal threats of a lawsuit? Bloody fascinating.
This reminds me of the time the CAIR took someone to court for calling them terrorist supporters and had their case thrown out with prejudice... apparently because the person being sued was simply telling the truth.
As is Pierre Poilievere, quite obviously. No wonder the MSM has kept largely silent about what he's said. They wouldn't want the people to find out this stuff about the Liberal Party, would they?
Does anyone really, seriously believe that the Liberal Party of Canada isn't full of all kinds of extremists? We know they are. We've seen all the proof already. And just because the MSM doesn't use this to destroy the Liberal Party, doesn't mean that it isn't true, nor that it isn't a serious cause for concern... and cause to not vote Liberal ever again!

STATEMENT BY MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT FOR NEPEAN-CARLETON ON REMARKS REGARDING THE LIBERAL PARTY OF CANADA (02/28/07)
OTTAWA - Member of Parliament Pierre Poilievre issued the following statement today:
"Parliamentarians were presented with a choice on February 27, 2007 - a choice between the safety of Canadians or bending to Liberal caucus politics. I will not apologize for standing up for Canadian families, and I will vigorously defend the remarks I made."
"For any government, there is no greater duty than the protection of its citizens, and the onus is now on the Liberal Party of Canada to explain why they voted against the families of the victims of Air India and 9/11. It is up to the Liberal Party of Canada to apologize to the Canadian victims of terror they abandoned, and explain another flip-flop on a critical issue."

Again, the bottom line: Don't vote Liberal.
