I just listened to an emotional interview with Brenda Martin on the John Oakley Show.
A distraught Martin remains in a disgusting Mexican prison, another Canadian victim of a whacked out judicial system in a backward third world dump.
As it stands, the Liberals have taken a great interest story with former Prime Minister Paul Martin having visited Martin in prison, and Liberal MP Dan McTeague pushing from all sides for the Harper government to do something.
As I wrote last week, the Harper government should do something; The Prime Minister should make a statement about the welfare of Canadians in Mexico and the crappy treatment we’ve been getting over the past couple of years.
Having said that, don’t be fooled by the actions of the Liberals. This is the perfect opportunity for the opposition to make political hay.
It was kind of the former Prime Minister to visit the prison last week, but this shouldn’t open the door for the rest of the party to start hooting and hollering while placing unrealistic expectations on the current government.
It’s an emotional issue that has the sitting government caught between a rock and a hard place. Despite being extremely frustrating, diplomacy plays a part in this and you’ve got to believe if winning this women’s release was that simple, she’d be back in Canada by now.
Foreign Affairs Minister Maxime Bernier spoke with his Mexican counterpart on Saturday, but to this point, that’s about the extent of official government response.
It’s a touchy situation that has to be dealt with delicately by those in power; meanwhile its easy pickin’s for an opposition that had a dreadful record of Foreign Affairs while it enjoyed power under a bumbling fool named Jean Chretien.

Charles Rusnell of the Edmonton Journal in different stories as well as in an interview with Charles Adler on Tuesday afternoon has broken the news that Brenda Martin categorically denies that she was asked for a half million dollar bribe or any bribe as carried in the Canadian Press story, attributed to the convicted felon Alyn Waage.
Dan McTeague in a radio interview continues to float the half million dollar bribe story, because it fits his political agenda and proves that he is not interested in the truth. He has been in contact with Brenda, and he has also worked with Charles Rusnell, so he knows better and knows the truth. He is now in essence calling Brenda Martin a liar, in his clumsy attempt to try and incriminate the Canadian government of mismanagement of the Martin file. How low can he stoop when we have this evidence that he is prepared to use Brenda Martin's plight to try and score cheap political points. Will the Brenda Martin team give this unscrupulous and unprincipled politician the boot?

Exceptional! Ahmadinejad did us a big favor! While we desperately delude our self into believing he (and those who applaud him) are fit to be viewed as reasonable persons, he spits in your face to help remind us that we all are (all over again) fooling our self.

Lindsay Lohan isn't really going someplace which will hold her from filming, so once more, I call Baloney with this major in depth inpatient treatment junk. There is not any way the woman or her mum will miss this chance to make bucks. And evidently she doesn't despise that scram band a sufficient amount of to quit the jack and coke and give up stuffing sh*t up her awful nose.

There's no doubt that President obama is more than likely wasting his time refuting Ahmadinejad seeing that several American’s are already lumping Ahmadinejad together under the same classification with The president—but if The president is trusted, and you never know in this instance, I suppose this is the one instance whereby Obama does not fault Bush.

Although not the most expensive bag by all means, the top lines up to $ 600 or more, which may be outside the price range of many people.
