Ignatieff's tentacles wrapped around the neck of the Liberal Party

It is difficult to distinguish exactly who has their tentacles wrapped around the collective neck of the Liberal Party these days, Iggy or his NDP Premiers, but what's clear is that they are slowly dragging the party into the abyss. If you think this hyperbole is over the top, it's okay I am just a blogger, not a Parliamentarian. Nobody in the House of Commons would ever be so crass as to use that type of language on the hansard. On second thought, maybe they would...

I think Wilson said it best over on the message board at Blue Like You:

Susan Riley, a Liberal reminds that Canadians are not stupid:

”..Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff, wasting what is left of his fine mind, spent much of this week in ardent pursuit of Helena Guergis and Rahim Jaffer — trying desperately and unconvincingly to shift blame for their misdeeds to Harper…"

Why, Ignatieff wanted to know, did the prime minister do nothing for months “while Mr. and Mrs. Jaffer attached their tentacles to the neck of government and slowly dragged it down?”

For those who track such things, this metaphorical overkill may mark a new low for the Liberal leader and a moment when the mood in the Commons shifted from sport to cruelty…

As for Ignatieff, he lamented the damage done the “political class” by tawdry scandals this week before he proceeded to jump gleefully into the cesspool himself…”
