What a load of horse dung. Even Ignatieff didn't try and spin that kind of answer. He told us all that the reason he was missing 70% of the votes was because he was out on the road "taking my message" across the country. I might also point out he missed votes on bills that the members of his own party introduced. Also, why do you have to be absent in the house to abstain from voting? Hint: You dont.
This is the guy that is trying to hammer Harper on "respect for democracy"...and it has been exposed for what it is, a thinly veiled attempt to paint Harper as someone who isn't in touch...yet the man himself is by FAR the one who hasnt a clue whats going on in the house.
You should apply to the Liberal party for a PR position, your spinning ability is worthy of the position.
