The great kafuffle

The Editor,
I won't resort to my usual sugar coating this time. The great kafuffle over the proroguing of Parliament has grown silent. The indignant howls of the Liberal Party trough-hugging faithful are now quiet. They are happy that their heroes have taken their seats once more - ready to save the nation. Wouldn't that gag a maggot?
What a farce! The opposition was chomping at the bit to get on with their jobs. Sure they were! A few days after Parliament was in session, you couldn't find more than twenty Liberals in their seats. It's all about getting back in power folks and even with the heavily biased media support many Canadians can't be fooled.
The leader of the opposition only hung around long enough to choke down a hindquarter of seal meat before hitting the road. He is either on a cross-country tour because our country's business wasn't all that important or he's off to Newfoundland seeking a new recipe. Of course, that seal chewing photo-op may have wrecked his digestion. I know that it didn't do much for mine.
