  1. All I have to say are the exact words from the PM.
    Its time to fish or cut bait! Glad Dion is practicing up!

  2. Watch out Harper,Steffi is getting ready to brawl,now if only his wife would teach him how to make a fist.

  3. Please empty the “bait” bucket?
    In the Liberal Party, it doesn’t hold bait, and I think the puffins hide that anyway, don’t they?

  4. Sacre bleu! MacLeans actually calling it like it really is? That is as much news as that old salty dog dion, stick on tattoos and all.

  5. MacLeans has nothing else to write about except try to rouse their Liberalship – I mean, readers.

  6. Never let down one’s guard with this crew.
    No matter how far back in the weeds they might be now.

  7. This has to be a joke… I did not know Macleans wrote satire now.
    Who is a worse party leader? Dion or Tory? I think both will be walking the plank soon.

  8. dion: “…Well, I decided to follow the advice of the Prime Minister. I cut bait and went fishing.”
    I trying to figure out exactly what he did … he doesn’t even know how to eat a hot dog.

  9. I think Stephane Dion should open up the seacocks on the “hot air”craft carrier HMCS “Kyoto” ballast tanks and send her straight to the bottom with the battleship HMCS “Dithers”.
    HMCS “Kyoto” can then become a submariners dive location to ‘swim with the fishes’ and start measuring CO2 levels near the bottom of the briny deep.
    I believe Dion will enjoy the undersea view. It is also so much easier to fish when you can actually see what is swimming on the bottom.
    Once Stephane Dion is sufficiently changed his CO2 gas ratio he can come up for air. Remember HOPE FLOATS but this HMCS “Kyoto” carrier is for the birds.

  10. In his next career, Dion better not try stand up comic. Even Cherniak must be embarrassed by his lame humor.

  11. So the PM says that they (the Liberals) have to “Cut bait or fish”.
    And Dion’s response?
    “I cut bait and went fishing”
    Too funny. Ha!
    Forgive my interpreting the obvious.
    To use a more vulgar version.
    PHSH: Sh!t or get off the pot.
    Dion: I got of the pot and sh!t. (Or is it shat?)
    Mixed messages? WTF? Who are the idiots advising this meathead?
    Sorry Kate for the obscene imagery evoked.

  12. dion is an over educated, somewhat foolish academic sheltered his entire life from the real world, he was pulled out of school by chretien and set up as a fall guy by/for the real powers that be. The conspiracy theorist in me asks…why?

  13. Please track him down.
    -tell him that everybody you know loves him and his leadership
    -buy him drinks,
    -tell him you drive a hybrid and that you hang your clothes out to dry on a clothes line
    -keep him the great leader for as long as possible

  14. unfortunately clotheslines are not allowed in most new developments. If you have an existing clothesline it can stay, but that wouldn’r be in a new development now would it.

  15. Kelly – “The conspiracy theorist in me asks…why?”
    Here’s my theory: Dion is the sacrificial “placeholder” while the Liberal Politburo reorganizes and rebuilds it’s war chest. Then when they’re ready to make their electoral move, their new Prince of Darkness will be put forward.
    Dion is either too dumb or too lacking in common sense to realize it(a common failing among the lefties of Academe) OR, he does know and has been promised a safe seat and a nice, juicy Cabinet Ministership or a Senate seat as his reward when the Natural Governing Party regains it’s rightful place in the sun.
    The logical principle called Occam’s Razor tells us to choose the simplest explanation from an array of possible explanations. With the Liberal Party, the revised Occam’s Razer principle is to go for the sleaziest explanation. “Hold the Fort now and we’ll take care of you later with a safe seat and nice Cabinet seat” seems to foot that bill, or at least has the “business comme d’habitude” Liberal aroma about it.
    What do you think of this theory, folks?

  16. Dave in Pa….your theory is way to deep.The Libs/left are simple….kiss my a&%…and help us steal money…and we will reward you! Canukistan.And 70% don’t even realize it.Pity.Only in Canada?

  17. Did anyone else notice from Steffi’s quote that he didn’t seem to realize what “fish or cut bait” means?
    Or he finally realizes that he is trolling for support without anything on his line.

  18. Albatross Dion? Yup. Albatross Dion hangs around the neck of the Liberals; a dead albatross; a dead party.
    Then there is Puffin Iggy with his sack of excrement dumping it at Dion’s webbed feet.
    The metaphors are mean and political bullying is in. Rodney Nova Scotia is in on the bullying, too.
    PM Harper is a blue raptor eagle.
    Hack Don Martin: “It appears he’s a control freak with a mean streak.”
    Martin views that as a flaw? Being mean to AdScam Liberals is a flaw? Dumping on AdScam Dion is a flaw? Rodney Nova Scotia doesn’t think so. Au contraire; it’s a strength, an asset, a mark of leadership.
    MSM gets it, though: Nice guys do not finish; they fade into obscurity.
    It’s lights out for dim bulb Citoyen Dion. Say good night, Stephane. Bon soir. You’re bammed. Go to sleep.

    PM reveals his greatest flaw
    Timing of Atlantic deal shows a mean streak
    OTTAWA -The day after he performed slightly above rock-bottom expectations, Liberal leader Stephane Dion must have sagged his albatross-saddled shoulders yesterday at the sight of his prime ministerial adversary winning over Nova Scotia. […]
    The way Mr. Harper announced the future Atlantic payoff gives a dark glimpse into his greatest flaw. It appears he’s a control freak with a mean streak. […]
    Unfortunately for the Liberals, in the blood sport of politics nice guys finish last. …-

  19. mth.
    yes. I had to listen to it twice to figure if Borat Dion really said it.
    cut bait means to give up. cut your line and quit.
    maybe his speech writers are as lame as he is.

  20. Dion is a fisherman, cutting bait and fishing at the same time .
    If he were a pilot he’d be flying the plane and serving rum and cokes in economy.
    If he were a surgeon he’d be opening up a patient while driving the ambulance.
    If he were a hunter he’d be sitting in his tree stand, with his dog.
    If he were Priminister he’d be telling us “He’s good for Canada”, while he robbed us blind.

  21. They should put Dion on “Little Mosque”.
    At least it would be funny.
    One line after another of the bleedin’ obvious.
    “We are not expecting that next Tuesday, this government will give us a Throne Speech that will be from a Liberal perspective,”.
    Duuuuuhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

  22. The sad part is that the Lib’s had Dion out of site for over a week, and the best thing they could come up with was a joke that doesn’t make any sense.
    Oh, and some of the media laughed at it. Never underestimate the intellect of our MSM…
