No wonder the New Democratic Party cannot ever become government!
During Wednesday's question period in the House of Commons, Irene Mathyssen claimed that she had seen James Moore viewing pictures of "scantily clad" women on his laptop in the parliamentary chamber.
She then went on to question his integrity as a member of the Commons, claiming his actions disrespected women.
Moore vehemently denied he had done anything wrong, and now it turns out that he wasn't looking at improper images at all.
The pictures that Mathyssen had seen -- and misinterpreted as improper -- were apparently just images of a friend.
CTV's David Akin said that he spoke with Moore Wednesday evening. He was told that Moore and Mathyssen have spoken since their exchange in the House and that Moore had explained that the pictures were of his girlfriend.
Well, I'm certain that the moonbatty outburst is forgivable. I'm pleased that Irene's going to apologize for jumping to conclusions over a mere perception and misapprehension.
She's a bigger woman than Harry Reid will ever be. Remember Harry Reid's inaccurate accusation against Rush Limbaugh as having called soldiers "phony"? Well, Harry hasn't apologized, and, looking as arrogant as Mussolini, continues to insist that he was right when we who studied the transcripts know he's wrong.
Oh, and by the way, would a NDPer dare say anything if Mr. Moore had been looking at pics of a man in a Speedo? I doubt it- the NDPs is too politically correct; never would they dare criticize someone for looking at same-sex pix, although heterosexuals are fair game, apparently! Maybe New Democrats have a problem with heterophobia to go along with their homofascism. Oh, and, of course, they're no better than the Liberals, either, who are just as extremely leftwing and unhingedly over-reactionary as the NDPers... wonder why they don't just merge into one party and pool their voter support to stop splitting the far-left vote? After all, the Liberals, under "leader" Stephane Dion, have indicated that they're moving to the far left in terms of policy.
