That being said, how is it not hypocrisy for Harper to occuse the Liberals of making deals with the separatists? Harper did the exact same thing less than a month ago. It's understandable; politics makes strange bedfellows, afterall. So if either the Liberals or the Conservative use the Bloc to advance their own ends, so be it. But Harper has no right to claim a position of moral superiority over Martin by accusing the Liberals of working with the separatists.
Not too long ago, there were many Liberals supporters and Stronach (etc) who were all over the Conservatives for making a deal with the seperatists. Now that the Liberals do it, it's perfectly A-OK?

That's where the hypocracy comes in. [/b][/quote]
This is what makes me the maddest. The most vocal reason given by Stronach for leaving the Conservatives was that she didn't think it was healthy to be buddy buddy with the Bloq.

This was her MAIN reason given.

What is she gonna do now??

Martin also played that angle up to the hilt. Now he does something similar.

That is the hypocricy. If Martin had said nothing, I would then applaud this move by him as clever.
But, he didn't, he made every effort to paint Harper in bed with Duceppe. He made every effort to say that was bad for Canada. This is what makes Martin a low low man in my books. A low principled, very unsavoury man.
