It Strikes Me Funny: Conservative Jim Flatulence vs my garden gnome

As Carla from Cheers used to say about Frasier, “What a maroon.”

Only three months ago Finance Minister Flatulence presented a world-class partisan budget, didn’t think the economy was in trouble, and with the help of his blustery and short-suffering Prime Minister tried to kneecap opposition parties, leading to the fastest Christmas retreat ever witnessed in the Canadian House of Uncommons.

I’ve got a garden gnome that shows more political sense.


“Sustainable development and pointy red toques all ‘round.”

Now he’s saying the country’s economy is in too much trouble to allow partisan debates to delay the federal government’s stimulus package.

He also said, “This is not a time for business as usual.”

If he isn’t referring mainly to his own party then Carla’s description stands.

Can Flatulence get the job done?
