This just in - The Puffster is coming
If you are a fan of the Puffster - Senator Mike Duffy - hurry on down to the Columbus Centre in Cobourg on Saturday for a luncheon. Billed as a fundraiser for the local PC party and ex-Reform candidate and sitting MP Rick Norlock, this event is guaranteed to get out the 'blue-rinse' crowd. It will be interesting to see if the Puffster can stay on message about how his party will lead us to the promised land or if he goes down deep and dirty with partisan cracks about his opponents.
A little birdy tells me that he might be appearing on Cogeco, Gawd help us the reruns will go on for weeks!

The Puffster is out? The Senate is in recess? Oh silly me, it's always in recess. Isn't that why they call it the recession?
Wally this is a Saturday perhaps the Puffster is working overtime, the weekend you know!
Who would like to join me in a pie-throwing-at- tories event in Cobourg on Saturday? I am sure my good buddy Karl B would look great wearing blueberry! For Rick Norlock I would think cherry or maybe lemon meringue would be appealing.
Any takers? Suggestions on which flavour pie works with which tory porker?
Nothing like a good old fashion common assault to express political partisanshit.
If it wasn't for politial partisanship we'd have nothing to argue about though, it would get boring.
Besides, isn't partisanship expressing a preference for a particular party? I don't believe the other poster expressed a preference FOR any party, just a desire to paste old tory white guys with pies! Who could disagree with that?
I seem to recall that common assault continues to be a prohibited activity in the Criminal Code. It's counselling a criminal act.
Very interesting. I bet there'd be no suggestion for pie-throwing if the target was an old tory white woman, especially if the thrower were a male. Social activist women would be throwing a hissy fit about men treating women as objects of derision and assault. But against men, sure, throw pies and shoes and whatever else. Sexism prevails on both sides of the gender divide.
Go out and buy yourelf a sense of humour, you need one. Not everything is a political statement, sometimes it's just for fun.
I'm sure. Assaulting and denigrating old white men is such fun. Of course it might not be such fun for the old white men wearing contact lens'; the impact of the pie can make a significant and painful scratch to the eyeball. I've had the experience. But who cares about that, as long as you and yours gets a chuckle out of a criminal assault ambush.
There are a multitude of wonderful ways to have fun denigrating, humiliating, mocking, insulting a political opponent without resorting to violence. It's a great sport, really.
Besides, pie-throwing is so peurile and unimaginative; it's the same sort of sophomoronic wit practised by dorks stealing lawn gnomes.
Perhaps you're one of the dime-a-dozen activists short changed on the ability of originality?

As my good friend Foghorn Leghorn would say,
"It's a joke, son, a joke".
Nobody is seriously planning to paste a pie in anybody's face.
