I'd be careful about the guffaws if I were a rabid partisan trying to defend our now international joke and his cabinet of clueless cretins.

It was only a couple of days ago when you were lying in these spaces about how the Globe was in the tank for Harper in the election campaign.  At least you have dropped that lie after I pointed it out to you and others.  But yes, it was an awkward and comical stance for the Mop and Pail to take.  But at least this paper is a private undertaking and not costing Canadians billions during those instances when it may be less than competent.  The same cannot be said of your heroes in the Trudeau government.  As an Ottawa trougher with more security than the inmates at Collins Bay and with a pension upon early retirement that is more than double the pensions of private sector peers doing equivalent jobs and paying in the same pension contributions, you may think everything  is wonderful.  It isn't and as in Greece the feds may need to cut your pension.
