But in the case of the Harperites, I suspect that those who are leaving have read the graffiti on the wall.Owen Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06464860078574618579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35117130.post-79278822259314102242015-06-19T21:28:02.944-04:002015-06-19T21:28:02.944-04:00Every one of these Tory rats are leaving the sinki...Every one of these Tory rats are leaving the sinking ship. And every one of them is using their family as an excuse, basically hiding behind their children. It reminds me of some colleagues I once had. If they were late, it was the children's fault. If they wanted to leave early, it was because of the children. If they messed up, the children kept them up late the night before. The children were always the perfect excuse since no one dared object to this noble parental concern even when everyone knew it was a complete lie.<br /><br />It is getting boring. Can't a Tory ever think up something even slightly original?ffdnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35117130.post-71091291273538109722015-06-19T19:09:06.153-04:002015-06-19T19:09:06.153-04:00In short I think the present situation gives crede...In short I think the present situation gives credence to your past post Owen about getting out while the gettin's good.
