They will never learn

I'm shaking my head. Those crooked Liberals. They kill me. Just because something isn’t illegal doesn’t make it acceptable. I’m talking about Joe Volpe and the leadership campaign contributions of $5,400 each from a couple of 11-year-olds. The Globe says that the law “prohibits individuals from donating money on behalf of someone else”. So are we supposed to believe that these 11-year-old twins (and their 14-year-old brother) each had 5 grand burning a hole in their pocket and said: “Let’s give our money to Joe Volpe’s campaign!” And now the Liberal Party says there’s no reason to investigate this.

The “donors” are the kids of drug company execs. That doesn’t smell suspicious at all.

Harper must be laughing his head off. He can taste the majority government in his future.

If the Liberals don’t see the problem here, they deserve to stay in the political wilderness until they’ve cleaned up their act.

UPDATE: Volpe's going to return the contributions from the minors. That's one small step. Of course, this is only happening because they got caught but still, things are sinking into those arrogant Liberal skulls. Said Joe's spokesman: “There were no laws broken here. Everything was in favour but it was perception and it was better to return them.” Perception. You got it, baby.
