More power, Moore problems

It looks like Conservative MP James Moore has broken his first election promise. On November 24, the could-have-been cabinet minister wrote "This will be my last blog on this website for a while. Heck, here goes campaign pitch #1: If I am re-elected, this blog will be resurrected to its full glory in a new term as the Member of Parliament for Port Moody-Westwood-Port Coquitlam." But last week, Mr. Moore told his readers "I'm afraid, like my friend Monte (Solberg), this will be the final posting on my blog. I have always been of the view that if you cannot do something with all your intensity and commitment, don't do it. As a result, this blog is going to be a casualty of my new responsibilities and my prioritizing of my spare time."

Gosh, Golly, I guess those of us who missed his site are now supposed to be left out of something. When the cons. self destruct in a few months, the guy will suddenly just have to get back on line to sell whatever it is he sells.

Politicians should find the time for things like that...it's a great way to stay in touch with their supporters, and the public.

Harper's duct tape has now extended to blogs. Good luck, Stevie - with Garth!

On TV last night, saw footage of James Moore arriving at the airport, just behind David Emerson, Friday night.

Looks like James was carrying David's bags.

Eugene Responds: In theory, in practice the CPC blogs have been entirely an outlet of the OLO. Constituents are not getting anything unique expect personalized spin from the conservative leader's press management team.

Reality check: Eugene Parks is rambling incoherantly again. Remove the tinfoil from your head and return to the mothership!

Carrying David Emerson's bag, eh? Are you sure he wasn't licking it?
