Greg Weston at the Ottawa Sun does a great job of encapsulating the week’s Gomery Inquiry events and in so doing, opens with an interesting tidbit:
You know that Paul Martin and his Liberal government have reached a true ethical milestone when even the Hells Angels are holding their noses at the stench of the Adscam fiasco.
The biker gang’s Toronto chapter is so peeved at the PM that it has adorned its website with a doctored photo of Martin, decked out in a bandanna, over the caption: “Pirate of Canada.”
What got the bikers’ leathers in a twist was Martin’s odd statement that the federal Liberals should not be tarnished by the “activities of a very small few who may have colluded against the party.”
The bikers fumed to us by e-mail yesterday, saying: “The government thinks it’s fine to blame every Hells Angel for the actions of a few … What a country this used to be. What a hypocritical pile of #&$* it is becoming.”
I was surprised that the Hell’s Angels even had a web site so I went to check—and I course I wanted that picture. I couldn’t find the picture so I guess they’ve already updated their page.
Funny thing crossed my mind though as I was surfing the Hell’s Angels’ web site: First, I never thought I’d find myself surfing the Hell’s Angels’ web site. Second, I felt more at ease about posting something from their web site than about the threat of being brought up on charges by our liberal government as a result of posting something from our own country’s “public” inquiry into our own government’s hellacious corruption.
