Degrading Canada

A while back Tom Flanagan nailed a phrase which I think may very well come to epitomize the entire reign of 'The Harper Government:' It doesn't have to be true. It just has to be plausible. As I outlined yesterday ( Harper risks denigrating our soldiers ) and as many others have done too, the Roveian theme that to investigate the growing Afghanistan detention scandal is to not support our troops...

Tom Flanagan says the darndest things about child pornography

As the Conservatives prepare to hurriedly rush-in legislation on child pornography that absolutely has nothing to do with distracting public attention from the Richard Colvin's testimony and the growing scandal about what the government knew about allegations of torture in Afghan prisons and when, here's what Tom Flanagan, a senior adviser to Stephen Harper and former senior campaign staffer,...

Dear Tom Flanagan,

What exactly do you mean by this ? “But that’s actually another interesting debate or seminar: what’s wrong with child pornography — in the sense that it’s just pictures? But I’m not here to debate that today.” I hope and pray that this is only some sort of misquote or vile piece of abstracted intellectualising. ( h/t Dawg )

Far beyond belief

Shorter Tom Flanagan : To learn the true measure of a leader, one must ignore his instinctual reaction to a perceived crisis in favour of whatever image he now finds it most beneficial to project. (Warning: only applies to Stephen Harper.)

On second thought

Tom Flanagan talks to the Winnipeg Free Press about Michael Ignatieff, attack ads, the coalition and political party funding. During last winter’s constitutional crisis, Flanagan wrote in The Globe and Mail that “Gross violations of democratic principles would be involved in handing government to the coalition without getting approval from voters.” A week earlier, Harper,...

Maybe A Bit Too Candid Thomas

Tom Flanagan outlines the thrust of the entire Conservative strategy, and it isn't pretty: On CBC Radio’s “The House,” top Conservative strategist Tom Flanagan said this about ten-percenters: “Canadians seem to be willing to tolerate attacks that are based on half-truths or things taken out of context, or misstatements, partial misstatements, distortions. I mean,...

Is Mr. Harper Setting Up A Few Of Our Finest To Take The Fall?

... that, as Mr. Francis also points out, it was Mr. Harper's former chief strategist and confidant Tom Flanagan who once said: "It doesn't have to be true, it just has to be plausible...." OK? .

Quote du Jour: Free the Journalists!

... have always accepted the press, but Harper's essentially said, 'Fuck you'," he explains. Tom Flanagan, Harper's 2004 campaign manager and 2006 campaign editor general, says that Harper's fine without the Gallery. "The Press Gallery is a bunch of self-important, preening prima donnas who think they're crucial because they're stationed in Ottawa and they've watched All the President's...

Harper's mentor, on child porn

An aside from Indian-fighter Tom Flanagan: But that’s actually another interesting debate or seminar: what’s wrong with child pornography — in the sense that it’s just pictures? But I’m not here to debate that today. And here, revealed in all its splendour, is the concept that lies at the rotting heart of social relations under capitalism--commodity fetishism. The...

The “Help Stephen Harper Name His Next Senator” Challenge

In today’s Ottawa Notebook, Jane Taber describes Tom Flanagan as “super Tory strategist.” Does she mean “super,” as in “especially good at what he does'” Does she mean “super,” as in “possessing extra-human powers such as the ability to strategize faster than a speeding Stephanopoulos'” Or does she mean “super,” as...

The Auditor-General is a Liberal hack and/or over-politicizing a crisis!

... Conservatives’ competence into question . UPDATE: This is a rather curious quote from Professor Tom Flanagan, former mentor of Stephen Harper. I’m not sure whether its a defense of the Conservative government or a criticism: “People get sick every day and people die. It is too bad, but not an emergency… The government was bullied by the World Health Organization and by the media into going...
