  1. I’m beginning to like Michael Ignatieff. After all, I knew him forty years ago (vaguely) as a super-academic guy who was pretty much in a world of his own, and he certainly hasn’t changed much apparently. So that makes him a potential conservative (also that tough talk about Iraq and torture). Who knows, if roused to interact with the common man, Iggy might actually blurt out some kind of endorsement of free speech that would deflate the Liberal Party completely.
    Or he might just wander off and take up inter-continental ballooning. You never know with these interim Liberal leaders. Stephane Dion seems to have floated off somewhere too.

  2. Change of headline needed:
    It’s Suicide on the Ignatieff Express.
    When somebody’s shooting themselves in the foot, don’t stand in their way.

  3. Its not IGGY the person where mocking. Its IGGY the Politician.
    He could be a saint, but he’s a disaster as a leader for reorganizing the Liberals.
    as for PM, well , we see what armatures have done to America. I include Bush in that. Compared to Obama he was a spitball compared to a wrecking one.
    Iggy would be a Bacon & cheeseburger to a heart attack patient.
    We had a coronary as a Nation under Trudeau. we don’t need the final push into a socialist mortuary.

  4. warren z:
    the Canadian flag ain’t there?
    France. U.K. U.S.A. Places Iggy lists as “home.”
    But -Iggy is nothing more than a visitor here. He’s just an opportunist-tourist, neo-exorcist in Canada.
    tj

  5. He keeps blasting away at that foot – but it just wont come off. It still hangs by a few frustrating tendons…

  6. Methinks Iggy was actually ‘hoyst with his own petard’ when he mentioned the sulphurous odour. Much like the flatulent Hugo.

  7. “Murder on the Orient Express” was a good movie. It’s infinitely more entertaining than watching Ignatieff bumble his way through political life in the greatest vacation spot on Earth.

  8. Iggy is the best thing going for the Conservatives. I hope he just keeps stumbling and bumbling along. It keeps the Lieberals distracted.

  9. *Yawn* Wake me if the Liberals ever come up with something resembling a policy statement…

  10. Maybe then Harper should hit Iggy with a Section 13 challenge, after all, he still has that option (unfortunately).

  11. In Iggy’s case, you can pretty much smell the helium coming out of the guy.

  12. Geeze, that pic of Mike at the Post story should have a caption: “BWAHAHAHAHahahahahaha!…”

  13. The “related” link has a photo that shows him at his all time best – absolute evil incarnate.

  14. We have a saying around here:
    “Whoever smelt it, dealt it”
    Slows down the finger pointing.

  15. “Those that can do and those that can’t teach” Shaw was right about Iggy then.

  16. Revised bus tour schedule:
    Day one Sudbury
    Day two Thunder Bay
    Day three Oblivion

  17. Rosemary Barton just e-mailed Evan Solomon on Power and Politics..something on the bus went BOOM,broke down on side of road!Wheels falling off on Day1???

  18. Reminds me of Christmas 2005 before the 2006 January election when Ralph Goodale and Paul Martin were doing their sleigh ride photo op through Wascana Park in Regina and a wheel fell off their hay wagon. Hilarious.
    How prophetic was that?

  19. How can a Prime Minister who is secretly plotting to institute a far right Christian government smell like sulphur?

  20. Who ever came up with that logo deserves a big ole raise, that’s the funnyest thing I’ve ever seen politically they are hoisting Iffy on his own war room flag poll.

  21. Here’s the song that people on the bus must have played when the Iggy Bus decided to become a metaphor and die on the side of the road…

    I guess someone forgot to put that nasty tar sands gasoline on the bus… They thought that it would run in an environmentally friendly way, just on smiles and good wishes!

  22. during the meanwhile , Boob Rae and his dipper converts have gone strangely silent.
    quiet as a whore in church Id say.

  23. “He steps on the clutch and the toilet goes flush”… All hail Iggy the terrible… I noticed that before the “Just visiting Express” broke down today that the Count was wearing a new costume. A baseball cap, I wonder if that was also made in Quebec, just like his boots, if so, the Count should immediately turn around, head back out west, and let us all know.

  24. Good king Natieff looked out
    On the feats of Stephen,
    As the hail lay round about
    Deep and crisp and even,
    Brightly shone the moon that night,
    Though the polls were cruel,
    When a blog man came in sight
    Calling him a too-oo-ool.
    Hither page and stand by me,
    I am quite asexual …
    etc etc

  25. Peter O’ ~ @8:44- That’s brilliant!
    A couple more verses, if you might.
    Now to get that melody expunged from my brain….

  26. The BOOM on the bus will squish Iggy’s polls,
    squish Iggy’s polls,
    squish Iggy’s polls.
    The BOOM on the bus will squish Iggy’s polls,
    Bob wants them down.
