Subject: BS: The DUFF! (Canuck) 31 charges dismissed From: gnu Date: 21 Apr 16 - 07:52 PM Well, I was on the edge of my keyboard for hours today reading the live blog. Three CBC reporters in the courtroom tweeting updates. It was far better than NHL hockey this year given that no Canuck teams are in the playoffs. And, ruling after ruling, I cheered! And then, the last three charges were addressed in DRAMATIC fashion and The DUFF was FREE AT LAST! All 31 charges dismissed. This is a great day for Canadian justice... for Canada. I hope he sues the bastards all the way to the Crime Minister! |

What the judge actually said was stunning. Some articles quote snippets that are stunning but the full tweets as it happened made me cheer and almost tear up... for those that don't know of what I speak, this bullshit sham could have torn apart our Parliamentary system and it sure fucked up our last election but that's another story. (Yes, almost tear up because it meant so much to the Canadian Parliamentary system and the fight against the very subversion of our democracy by the likes of... well... Canucks know.) I LOVED the comments on the last three charges. That judge has BALLS! |

(Canuck) 31 charges dismissed From: meself Date: 22 Apr 16 - 01:25 AM And Duffy gets away with a whole lot of unethical behaviour, at our expense, because - well, the rules didn't say I couldn't do it, so how was a poor simple slob like me supposed to know? It's not like I was appointed to the Senate because of my good judgement or anything like that ..... |

Subject: RE: BS: The DUFF! (Canuck) 31 charges dismissed From: gnu Date: 22 Apr 16 - 07:10 AM He had no business being in the Senate in the first place and not just based on residency. He was "put" in the Senate by Harper as a paid detective/shill, nothing more, and was manipulated, nay, bullied, by Harper. The PM and the PMO have a lot to answer for. The Duff was found not guilty on all charges after 63 days in court. He didn't "get away" with anything. Harper did... from the very beginning. |
