The whole Jaffer/Guergis affair is simply a tale of incompetence and indiscretion. How boring.
Unless a photo surfaces of Guergis snorting coke off of some stripper's belly, this is all officially boring.
It's fine that this "power couple" is going down in flames. We deserve better in Parliament.
Oh, in other related news, apparently the OPP kept Jaffer from receiving a phone call from his lawyer, and a strip search was done despite the fact he was to be ROR, in which case it is not proper practice to do such an invasive search. So the Crown was likely right to cut a deal.
Of course, had the Crown let us know this up front, some of us wouldn't have spent so much time wondering if the Crown was compromised, either politically or intellectually.

As I understand it, that may just be what is next.
And lest we forget, there is now allegations that Jaffer was using a Minister's office for lobbying AND that both Jaffer and Guergis may have been involved in shady "pump and dump" stock swindles, facilitated by her position as Minister of State for Industry (specifically a deal in Belize)
Sound to me like this is the kind of corruption that makes the Sponsorship scandal look tame by comparison.
I'm rather enjoying watching the smug conservative bastards take one in the groin on this...
We'll see. So far, looks like they've wrapped themselves up with a con artist or two and, as a result, it's not really clear what was going on.
Still snoring.
