Someone over at the Star is off their meds again.
Or, perhaps, hasn’t had a chance yet to reexamine where things stand in the House of Commons. So, let’s recap. On Thursday, the Toronto Star opined Stephen Harper’s conservative government’s pretty well being blown out of controll. From cheques with party logos on them, to the supposed mishandling of the H1N1 problem, to whatever else they can fit in the article before the deadline. And, they’re right–it does look bad. Horrible, even. If you’re not actually keeping track. See, the Star must have gotten a copy of the email sent out by Alfred Apps earlier this week. And, clearly, didn’t get the correction sent out by one of Apps’s own party members, which correctly planted the blame for what happened to the vaccines after they were handed to the provinces where it should be–on the shoulders of the provinces.
And, of course, later on the same day, a poll came out that pretty effectively blew the Star’s theory out of the water re: the whole out of controll thing. Oops. Try on another angle, folks. It might fit better. Then again, they could have just left reporting to people a little more centered in reality. Facts? What facts? We saw nothing.
