Transference much?

Of all the comments on Pat Martin today (and there have been some ludicrous ones from Libs and Cons alike), this manages to stand out for sheer detachment from reality:

(Martin) did not come out and criticize Jack, he pointed the finger at NDP's policymaking and communications apparatus, which, he said is far too guarded in spreading the party's message, often replacing plain talk with officialese. Considering the hierarchy in the NDP, that's just code for blaming the leader. Nobody takes a crap in that party without their leader's approval or approval from the leader's office.

That's right: a supporter of Harper's Cons trying to accuse the NDP of micromanagement. If you listen carefully, you can hear irony spinning in its grave.
