The Duffy scandal has long, long legs

Mike Duffy was a conservative insider LONG before he was appointed to the Senate and for him to pretend otherwise is beyond laughable. About 8 years ago, I fired off an e-mail to him pointed out his bias in his reporting, it was pointed but not rude and, wow, I received back THE nastiest e-mail I have ever gotten, before and since. I was shocked, it called supporters of any other party than the cons, just about every name in the book.

I am SO glad that POS is being exposed for what he is, a money-grubbing, lying Con insider.

He's always been a criminal, and he remains so.

that they, the Harper cabal, continued to protect and defend him knowing the risk. I hope, now that it seems they are beginning to abandon him, he lets loose with what he knows. Having been the recipient of his vitriol in that e-mail, it would not surprise me if he goes the way of 'scorched earth' response unless they buy his silence.

Suspect that most have no sympathy for the Duff. From his visceral knifing of Margaret Trudeau to his aggressive stabbing of Dion.

There are many more IOU's that have to be paid back.
