But fawning over Baird because he took him and Garneau on one of his trips, at the end of his career, struck me as pathetic. And Dewar's comments about how Baird was a great defender of the LGBT cause was simply absurd. He wasn't and all of the gay people I know disowned him long ago....

Some are already in prison, others are on their way. I had thought the opposition gushed over Baird to show Harper up. Baird quit so suddenly and many say, Harper and Baird had not been getting along.<br /><br />Harper refuses his Ministers to do their jobs. He over rules and dictates to them and does not take their advice. Ministers are not happy with, Harper's FIPA deal with China. Ministers advised against Soudas, being brought in. Flaherty had been set against income splitting.<br /><br />Now, Harper has brought terrorist attacks upon our heads, as political gains for him. Bairds mouth is just as big as Harper's and has embarrassed Canadians on more than a few occasions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-37781198907357517062015-02-04T16:13:05.609-05:002015-02-04T16:13:05.609-05:00Good riddance to bad rubbish.
