Looking back from New Year's Eve, precious little of the Conservative high ground remains. In fact, there seems scant reason to assume that Harper means anything he says...
McGill professor Desmond Morton told the Toronto Star that the appointments - under the parliamentary circumstances - were a scandal. "He has the power to do it, but he shouldn't have the gall," said Morton.
True, but if 2008 has taught us anything about Stephen Harper it's that he has mastered the art of barrelling past his own contradictions, sanctimony to the fore.
All for ourselves, and nothing for other people, seems, in every age of the world, to have been the vile maxim of the masters of mankind.
