Is This The Smoking Gun?

Paul Martin of the Lying Liberal Party of Canada has been directly tied to influence peddling today in the Adscam hearings. Chuck Guite told the committee that Mr. Martin's office called him specifically requesting that certain companies be considered for the Adscam contracts.

Back in February Paul Martin said:

Anybody who is found to have known that people are kiting cheques, that people are falsifying invoices - me or anybody else - should resign.

...

Anybody who knew that kind of thing was going on and let it happen, they don't belong in public life.

So am I wasting my time if I sit in front of the TV all night tonight waiting for Martin's press conference announcing his resignation? Ah screw it... I'll stick to the playoffs.

Guite said today that Paul Martin's office called him saying the Paul wanted specific companies to be considered for the contracts. One of these companies, Earnscliffe, is stacked with former and current Martin advisors.

So short of Mr. Martin himself coming out and admitting he played the system how much more proof does the Canadian public need before they conclude that we've been governed by a bunch of crooks the last 15 years? The polls in the next couple of weeks we be very telling. Maybe Canadians won't have learned a thing? Time will tell.
