Oda and da machine

02/23/2011 by backofthebook.ca 2 Comments

oda-and-the-mobBy Montreal Simon

Oh. My. Mafia. I hear the Con mob in the PMO, now known as the Oda Gang, are desperate.

The new boss is now claiming she couldn’t have whacked KAIROS, because she has an alibi. She was out of town. So even though she owes her current position to the fact she knows too much, she doesn’t know ANYTHING eh?

So it must have been da machine.

“According to new information, senior CIDA staff sent a memo to Oda, recommending the government provide funding for KAIROS. However, Oda did not agree with the decision. But because she was not in Ottawa that day, it was left to her aides to handle the paperwork.

‘They, with the minister’s authority, applied her automated signature, which is used when required because a Minister is unable to personally sign a document, and indicated her decision on the memo by clearly indicating that she did NOT approve the funding application,’ government officials said in their memo.”

While the Prime Minister is said to be in a safe house, in case he has to leave the country in a hurry.

And trying to keep the lid on this sordid scandal, the only way he knows how.

But then who can blame him eh?

Didn’t that former PMO operative spill the beans the other day?

Didn’t he testify that If Oda didn’t approve of the application all she had to do was tell the aide da machine NOT to sign it. I thought so.

And surely those Cons aren’t suggesting that KAIROS was just another dossier on a busy minister’s desk.

In a briefing note distributed to Conservative MPs over the weekend, they said, “Hundreds of these internal memos cross ministers’ desks every day.”

When Jason Kenney made it clear KAIROS had been singled out for execution mutilation by the sinister hit men in the PMO, for being disloyal to the state of Israel:

Immigration Minister Jason Kenney has accused Christian aid group KAIROS of being anti-Semitic and disclosed that’s why the group suddenly lost its federal funding.

. . . he was lying of course. But what’s new eh? The Cons lie all the time about EVERYTHING. And they are still lying now.

But fine. Oda recently complained that she was being treated like a character in CSI. So let’s make her fantasy nightmare come true.

Let’s call in the aide, bring in a handwriting expert, and a lie detector. And see who is telling the truth.

But wait. Didn’t the Cons recently decree that aides can’t be questioned by parliamentary committees? Only ministers can. How bloody convenient eh?

And what a modus operandi. Whack or mutilate decent Canadian groups. Intimidate others.

Rule by fear like the mob. Doctor documents, lie about it over and over again.

And when everything fails, blame aides because they can’t talk.

Or blame da machine…

harper-machine

Because it can’t SQUEAL.

And neither can Oda. Or she’ll be flushed. Or going for a ride in a wheelbarrow.

Oh boy. What have we become? The arrogance of power must make them think we’re FOOLS.

Organize, unite, defeat those ghastly gangsters.

Before they whack our country . . .

    I always get a chuckle at how Liberals, frustrated at the Conservatives growing popularity, regularly lash out at Harper and friends. Harper could cure cancer tomorrow and the Liberals on here would bash him for not doing it yesterday.

    But that’s ok. All of the hate-mongering and propaganda doesn’t really change anything in the polls now, does it? 🙂

    Oh, and as for the mafia references, maybe you should check out your friends in the Liberals. Unlike the Conservatives, the Liberals actually HAVE been linked to the mafia — many times over. Chretien and Martin have both been linked to the mafia through Liberal politician/alleged mafia soldier Alfonso Gagliano and Quebec Liberal Jean Charest and his gang have been connected to the mob many, many times.

    Ouch.

    Really? “Da machine”? This is possibly one of the most immature articles I have ever read.
    You’re comparing the Canadian government (or more specifically the “con[servatives]”) to the mob- and it’s pretty sad. Next time try outlining your arguments more professionally and maybe your article will someday be taken seriously.
