On wrong lessons

Shorter Don Newman:

I'm outraged that the 52% of voters who voted for Labour or the Lib Dems might end up with more influence than the larger 36% number who voted for the Conservatives. Have I mentioned that I've been taking math lessons from Jim Flaherty?

h/t to Canadian Cynic.

Update: And Jeffrey Simpson manages to be even worse, focusing on the Lib Dems' percentage of seats under a system which obviously underrepresents them rather than the share of votes where they're well within the same range as the Conservatives and Labour.
