Clueless

Kady has the most ridiculous detail yet about the Cons' attempt to hide from the Afghan torture issue:

SO YEAH, ABOUT THOSE TERMS OF REFERENCE UPDATE: Apparently, Nicholson's office will be putting out a press release on the Iacobucci review just as soon as they've managed to nail down the details, although when that will happen -- or, for that matter, what that down-nailing entails -- is not entirely clear.

Combining the highly visible public announcement of they-haven't-yet-figured-out-what with their immediate backtracking on a change to the national anthem which they so proudly unveiled just two days ago, it's looking more clear than ever that the Cons are just as incompetent as they are dishonest. But with the fundamental question of parliamentary supremacy still left unanswered, it'll be up to the opposition parties to refuse to be thrown off course no matter how desperate the latest distraction may be.
