Should Garth Turner Resign?

It looks like scandal has found a new home, at Chez Garth's. Mr Turner, or his campaign team has allegedly been caught...uhm...not being entirely forthcoming in a recent door knocking episode with CPAC.

Props to Steve Janke who cracked the case, and Stephen Taylor for posting the video.



Mr Turner didn't seem his usual confident, bombastic self in this interview, and he certainly wasn't able to pin this on the Conservatives (yet).

This whole debacle could have been squashed in mere seconds if Mr Turner had merely apologized at the start, promised to look into it, discipline anyone involved. Now, this is a huge story. Perhaps Mr Turner could learn a thing or two about accountability, humility, and leadership.

We're better off with Harper.

Garth can't dismiss this so easily. I'm sure that he knew exactly where he was going!! He'd probably been there for umpteen bbq's over the summer. Caught big time!! I predict that he will throw Esther under the bus.

The bus wouldn't do much damage. From what I hear, those green shift environmentally friendly engines don't have much weight.

I wonder how Garth will spin this on his blog. I never go there but I'm sure someone will.

I'm hoping that Garth doesn't get expelled for this.

Furthermore I hope he continues to live in denial to the point that he makes a run for the liberal leadership post election.

We all know how he will spin it on his blog, he will play the victim, and lo'and behold, he did.
